Buying an apartment condo in Calgary isn't the same as buying a detached home — but the inspection still matters. HomeWise Property Inspections evaluates the interior of your suite in detail and reports on visible common elements like balconies, entry doors, hallways and parkade access. Apartment condo inspections are a flat $375 + GST regardless of size or age. Townhomes are inspected and priced separately — see our townhouse inspection page for those.

Why this inspection matters
Condos still have hidden issues
Window seal failures, plumbing leaks, poor ventilation and aging in-suite systems are common — and almost never disclosed in the listing.
Pairs with your condo docs
Your lawyer reviews reserve fund studies and bylaws; we inspect the physical condition of your specific unit. Together, you get the full picture.
Calgary high-rise expertise
We understand common Calgary condo issues — Poly-B plumbing, aging fan coils, balcony membrane wear and window condensation.
Same detail, smaller footprint
You get the same thorough approach, scaled to your suite. Apartment condo inspections are a flat $375 + GST, regardless of size or age.

What we look at in your suite
Every apartment condo inspection covers the systems inside your unit — here's that work in action.
Buying a condo in Calgary?
Read our Calgary condo inspection buyer’s guide for pricing, the inspection checklist, what an apartment condo inspection covers, and questions to ask before removing conditions.
Buying a townhome instead?
Townhomes are a different job — the roof line above your unit, the shared party walls and the exterior all get inspected, and the price is separate from the flat condo rate. See our townhouse inspection page for what’s covered and what it costs.

Frequently asked questions
Do you inspect common areas?›
We document visible common elements (hallways, balconies, entry doors, parkade access). Major building components are governed by the condo corporation and reserve fund study.
How long does a condo inspection take?›
Most suites take 1.5–2.5 hours depending on size and layout.
Should I get a condo inspection?›
Yes. Even new condos can have construction defects, and older units often have aging plumbing or HVAC components worth knowing about before closing.
Is the flat $375 + GST rate for townhomes too?›
No — the flat rate covers apartment condos. Townhomes are inspected and priced separately, from $400 + GST, because the roof line, party walls and exterior are part of the job. See our townhouse inspection page.
