Our story

A Calgary team that knows short-term rentals inside and out.

We know the buildings, the bylaws, the City licensing, and what guests actually book. From buying the right property to running it every day, we're the one team you need here.

Why I started BNB Experts

When I started in real estate in 2019, I didn't think Airbnb would work in Calgary.

I was working with investors on long-term rentals, fourplexes and flips. Then I came across a condo for sale here that was already running as an Airbnb, and the numbers were better than almost anything I'd seen on a long-term rental. It works in Calgary. It just takes the right property and the right setup.

So I started helping investors buy short-term rentals, and in 2021 I founded BNB Experts. Most of those clients lived out of province, a lot of them in the GTA and the Lower Mainland. They didn't need a list of contacts. They needed one person here they could trust with all of it: finding the right property, buying it, furnishing it, completing renovations if needed, getting it licensed and compliant, and managing it after.

So that's what we built. One team that handles every step, so nothing falls through the cracks between an agent, a designer, a contractor and a manager who never talk to each other. And one person you can always reach. I answer my phone, I reply to texts, and if something comes up with your property, you hear about it from us first. In this business, communication is everything.

What we know

Local knowledge you can't get from AI

We run short-term rentals in this city every day, including our own, so the advice we give comes from what's actually happening in the buildings.

The buildings

Which ones allow short-term rentals, which boards are friendly, and which are drifting toward a ban.

The rules

City licensing, condo bylaws, STR fees and strike systems, and how to stay on the right side of all of them.

The guests

What Calgary guests search for, what they review, and what makes them book again.

The numbers

What units really earn after cleaning, fees and condo costs, based on the ones we manage.

One team, every step

Everything you need, in one place

No handing you off between an agent, a designer, a cleaner and a manager who don't talk to each other.
