Calgary Downtown Condo Buildings In downtown Calgary, you will find a mix of two styles of condominium buildings, high-rise and low-rise. One of the first decisions a buyer has to make is the style they prefer. According to the Emporis Standards: High-rise building: A multi-story structure between 35-100 meters tall, or a building of unknown height from 12-39 floors. Low-rise building: An enclosed structure below 35 meters which is divided into regular floor levels. Standards do vary throughout the world. In Calgary, a High-rise building is considered to be 5+ stories and a Low-rise is 2-4 stories. Each of these building styles has its pros and cons. A pro for a high-rise condo is that they typically provide expansive views. A con might be the time spent waiting for an elevator. For a ... 10/26/2022

Sunnyside Calgary - More to Offer than You ThinkSo if I’ve heard this question once – I have heard it a million times. Ok, maybe not a million. Here it is: what’s the difference between the Calgary community of Kensington and Sunnyside. Actually, as it happens, not much. Kensington is a business district that crosses the communities of Hillhurst and Sunnyside. So when you hear someone say that they LOVE Kensington – they are really referring to four blocks that include shops, restaurants, pubs, and yes – even a cat café. But THAT is for another day. These four blocks are technically in Sunnyside (and Hillhurst). SO now that we have a basic understanding of what-is-what, let's dive into what makes Sunnyside one of the best communities to live in. And why you should live here. Are you rea... 04/09/2022

East Village – Why you should live thereIf I could live ANYWHERE in Calgary, this would be it. East Village.  It took a couple tries to get this community built but you know what they say about good wine, patience and perseverance...

Historically, EV has been the forgotten cousin – overlooked, left out, and almost entirely ignored. But no longer.EV is geographically fairly small, but that is what makes it so vibrant. An urban oasis that is nestled just steps from the east end of downtown, south of the Bow River and west of Inglewood. It. Has. Everything. People from all over the city flock to this neighbourhood to explore it. But YOU can live here. This is why you should.Take your... 03/16/2022

Why Now is a Great Time to Buy a Hi-Rise Condo in Downtown CalgaryAccording to Calgary Economic Development's  Calgary Head Offices - Fact Sheet 2021, Calgary contains the highest concentration of head offices in Canada with 71% of them being oil and gas companies.Boom and Bust Leads to Head Office ReductionThe Calgary economy has been tightly tied to the oil and gas industry. When oil prices are high, the city and province reap the rewards. When prices are low, it is just the opposite. It has been a constant cycle of boom and bust.The last seven years however have seen an unprecedented exodus of head offices from the downtown core. This started with the sudden reduction in WTI crude prices from $93.17(USD) in 2014 to $48.66(USD) in 2015. This caused many oil and gas companies to re-eva... 02/12/2022
