166 E 51ST AVENUE · Detached rental

166 E 51ST AVENUE is a detached rental in Vancouver, BC, asking $1,800,000 — $1,800,000 per door.

That sits above the Vancouver band of $700k - $1.6M per door. A price above the band has to be earned by rents, condition, or upside that the listing has not yet shown. Vancouver cap rates screen 2.0% - 3.5% against average rent near $3,150 a door.

At 1 unit this finances as residential, not commercial — MLI Select starts at five units. The qualifying rate still applies: federally regulated lenders test a 1–4 unit rental at the greater of your contract rate plus two points or 5.25%.

Vancouver is usually a policy and land-value thesis, not a current-income market under standard leverage. Investor demand reads very high, vacancy very tight.
