Explore Calgary

Thursday, January 31st, 2013

The old real estate adage concerning success in business – “Location, Location, Location” – works only when you know a bit about the location in question; guessing just doesn’t cut it. Agents specializing in commercial real estate marinate in demographics on a daily basis, and now a new tool from the Calgary Regional Partnership can help out. The website, ExploreCalgaryRegion.ca, is intended to provide detailed breakdowns of individual areas along with available commercial real estate opportunities.

From the press release: “ExploreCalgaryRegion.ca is available free and instantly for access to industrial and commercial real estate in the Calgary Region, along with a database of available properties with images. The new website provides immediate access to critical business intelligence that decision makers need to make an investment decision in the Calgary Region.”

While not necessarily the easiest website in the world to use, there’s a lot of information at one’s fingertips here, and I can only imagine its usability will improve with time. This thing just launched a few days ago, after all, and it’s intended for a more specific audience than the general public (but it’s fun for you and I to play with too, depending on how you define fun). The Calgary Real Estate Board has expressed interest in the site as a valuable tool to help commercial Realtors respond quickly to their clients’ needs.
