We manage more than 500 units across Calgary and the surrounding area, all leased by our own team rather than a call centre. Every home below is ours to show, and every rent and utility split you read here is the one that goes in the lease.
The northwest, or NW Calgary as most people search for it, is the second largest part of our portfolio and the most varied. It runs from the established inner city streets around Mount Pleasant, Banff Trail and West Hillhurst out to the newer communities along Stoney Trail such as Evanston, Sage Hill, Nolan Hill and Carrington. That spread is the point. A one bedroom basement suite near the university and a five bedroom house on a corner lot in the far northwest are both northwest Calgary, and both are managed by the same team out of one office.
The inner northwest is walkable, mature and close to the University of Calgary, Foothills Medical Centre and the LRT. The outer northwest is newer, quieter and built for families who want a garage, a yard and a school within a short drive. Tell us which of the two you are after and the shortlist gets much shorter.
Crowchild Trail, Shaganappi Trail and Stoney Trail all run through the northwest, and the Red Line LRT reaches Tuscany. For anyone working downtown, at the hospitals or at the university, this is the shortest reliable drive in the city.
A large share of what we manage in the northwest is a legal lower suite with its own entrance and its own laundry. They are the most affordable way into a mature community, and they are not an afterthought in the basement of a family home.
These are the actual rents on the homes we manage here, read from our own listings rather than from a market report. They move as homes are leased and new ones come on, so the figures below are current rather than a snapshot from a past quarter.
| Type of home | Our rents | Utilities |
|---|---|---|
| Basement suite | $1,000 to $1,400 | Usually plus 30 to 40 percent of utilities |
| Main floor suite | $1,750 to $2,600 | Usually plus 60 percent |
| Full house | $2,600 | Tenant pays utilities |
| Condo or apartment | $1,650 | Varies, some include heat and water |
| Townhouse | $2,600 | Plus utilities |
Utilities are stated as a percentage on every listing and repeated in the lease. Where a home is rented whole, the tenant normally pays utilities directly.
This list is generated from our live inventory. When a home is leased it disappears from here on its own, so nothing below is a home that has already gone.
Tell us the area, the budget and the date you need to move, and we will tell you what is coming up before it is advertised. It is a two minute conversation and it saves a lot of scrolling.
Most of our northwest homes are either a main floor of a detached house or a legal lower suite, and utilities are usually shared with the other unit on a stated percentage rather than bundled into the rent. That percentage is written into the listing and into the lease, so you know before you apply. Parking is nearly always included, either a garage, a pad off the back lane or a driveway stall. Where a home has a yard, the listing says who cuts the grass and who clears the walk.
AM PM Properties manages and leases homes across these northwest Calgary communities. We are the managers, not a listing site, so every home you see here is one we hold the keys to.

There is no agent fee to a tenant in Alberta and we do not charge one. The process is the same on every home we manage.
Call 587 832 5000 or send the form and we will arrange a time. Most homes are empty and held on a lockbox or a code, so viewings are usually easy to schedule.
Applications are online. We review credit, employment and previous rental references. Tell us your move in date up front, because availability is what usually decides between two good applications.
The deposit is one month's rent and the lease is normally twelve months. The lease states the same rent and the same utility split that the advertisement did.
Across the northwest homes we manage the range runs from $1,000 to $2,600. Where a home sits in that range depends on whether it is a lower suite or a whole main floor, how many bedrooms it has, and whether parking and a yard come with it.
Usually not in full. Most of our northwest homes share utilities with the other unit in the building on a stated percentage, commonly thirty, forty or sixty percent depending on the size of the suite. The exact figure is written on every listing and repeated in the lease. A small number of suites are advertised with utilities included, and those say so plainly.
On almost every northwest home, yes. Depending on the property that is a single garage, a parking pad off the back lane, or a driveway stall. The listing states which one, and if a home has no parking it says that too.
It depends on the owner, so the answer is on each listing rather than a blanket policy. Many of our northwest homes are negotiable on cats and dogs. If a home is strictly no pets the listing says so before you apply.
We manage more than 500 units across Calgary and the surrounding area. Of those, 12 are available to rent right now across the northwest, from the inner city communities near the university out to the newer areas along Stoney Trail. That grid is above and it updates itself as homes are leased.
We manage more than 500 units across Calgary and the surrounding area and we lease them ourselves. If you want to know what your property would rent for and how long it would take, we will tell you honestly, including when the answer is that the rent should be lower.
