Why Canmore houses come to us

Canmore's older streets still hold the miners'-era and seventies houses that predate the resort years — and renovating there is priced like the mountains. We buy as-is in Canmore. The one place nearby we cannot help is Banff itself, where national park leasehold rules put houses under a different system entirely.

Our office to Canmore: about an hour and five minutes, west on Highway 1. We come to the house once, in person.

We also buy in Calgary and across southern and central Alberta. If yours is somewhere between two towns, call anyway.

Canmore questions

Asked by Canmore sellers

Do you actually buy houses in Canmore, or only in Calgary?

We buy in Canmore — it's about an hour and five minutes from our Calgary office, inside the range we drive. We come to the house once, in person, the same as we do in Calgary.

How fast can you close on a Canmore house?

The same as anywhere we buy: as little as five to seven days on a clean title, two to three weeks more usually. You pick the date, and the offer is firm — no conditions, and the deposit is at your lawyer's office the next business day.

Renovation quotes in Canmore are enormous. Does that kill a cash offer?

No — it moves the number, and we show you exactly how, in writing. You spend nothing either way.
