Why Buy a Condo in Calgary?
- •Affordability: Calgary condos are significantly more affordable than Toronto or Vancouver, with benchmark prices well below national averages for major cities.
- •No provincial sales tax: Alberta has no PST, making purchases more affordable at closing.
- •Strong rental demand: Steady population growth and a robust job market keep rental demand high for investors.
- •Walkable downtown: Calgary's downtown core and Beltline offer vibrant, walkable condo living with restaurants, shops, and the CTrain.
What to Watch For
- •Reserve fund health: Some older Calgary condos have underfunded reserve funds — always review the reserve fund study before buying.
- •Special assessments: Calgary has seen high-profile special assessments in older buildings. A document review can reveal these risks.
