What Our Calgary Residential Management Service Includes
Marketing and Showings
Your property is priced from current comparables in its own community, photographed and listed on the major rental platforms, and shown by our team. Vacant days are the most expensive cost in residential ownership, and getting the price and presentation right from day one is how we keep them short.
Tenant Screening
Every applicant is screened for credit, income and employment, rental history and references, in compliance with Alberta’s privacy legislation. Good screening is the single most effective protection a landlord has, and we do not cut corners on it.
Leases, Deposits and Compliance
Leases are prepared under Alberta’s Residential Tenancies Act, security deposits are held in trust and interest is calculated and paid as the Act requires, move-in and move-out inspection reports are completed, and notices are served correctly. When a dispute arises, we prepare and file applications with the Residential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Service (RTDRS) and represent you at the hearing.
Rent Collection and Owner Payments
Rent is collected electronically, arrears are followed up immediately and net rents are direct-deposited to you with a monthly statement.
Maintenance and Emergencies
Routine repairs are handled by vetted trades at competitive rates, inspected and approved before payment. Tenants have a 24-hour emergency line, and our team coordinates the response and reports back to you. Seasonal items such as furnace servicing and eavestroughs are scheduled, not forgotten.
Inspections and Reporting
Routine inspections document the condition of your property, and monthly statements show income, expenses and any variances, with year-end packages prepared for your accountant.
Renting in Calgary Right Now
After several years of very tight conditions, Calgary’s rental market has moved toward balance as new supply arrives and rent growth cools. That means accurate pricing and good tenant retention matter more than they did when lineups formed at every showing. It also means the City’s short-term rental licensing rules, the provincial rules on deposits and interest, and the RTDRS process are all things a Calgary landlord needs to get right. Rimrock manages Calgary rentals through exactly these conditions every day.

Calgary Residential Property Management FAQs
How much does residential property management cost in Calgary?
Full-service management is usually priced as a percentage of collected rent, plus a leasing fee when a new tenant is placed. We quote after seeing the property and every proposal is written, itemized and free of obligation.
Do you manage single condo units?
Yes. Investor-owned condo and apartment units are a large part of our Calgary residential portfolio, and we coordinate with the condominium corporation on your behalf.
How do you screen tenants?
Credit, income and employment verification, rental history and references, all in compliance with Alberta privacy law, before any lease is offered.
What happens if a tenant stops paying?
Arrears are followed up immediately. If necessary we serve the correct notices, file with the RTDRS and represent you at the hearing.
How do you handle security deposits?
Deposits are held in trust, interest is calculated and paid as the Residential Tenancies Act requires, and deductions are supported by move-in and move-out inspection reports.
Can Rimrock take over from my current property manager or from self-management?
Yes. We collect the lease, deposit, inspection and vendor records, notify the tenant and take over rent collection, usually within 30 days and with no disruption to the tenant.
