UrbanTec Property Management Inc. was founded with knowledge garnered from more than 25 years of providing project management and maintenance services to the Calgary condominium community. This provides us with a unique insight into the property management industry.  Therefore, your largest asset, your building, has an invaluable resource on which to draw.   

The idea for UrbanTec Property Management Inc. came because of the frustration of having to deal with ill trained, inexperienced property managers. While they may be able to balance numbers, and return phone calls, they have a limited understanding of the specialty that is property management.  Our knowledge, dedication, and 25+ years of experience within the Calgary condominium market sets us apart from other management companies. 

Our group of vetted employees and contractors can come into any situation seamlessly. Due to our long history providing maintenance services to Calgary’s multi-family communities, we have seen and done it all. We can address any circumstance with multiple choices to accommodate your specific and unique needs.  

Mistakes are bound to happen, and it is the response to these mistakes that separates one organization from another. Part of our company philosophy is that we view mistakes as an opportunity. An opportunity to own the mistakes, to learn from them, make necessary changes and then move on. At no point do we make the corporations responsible for our mistakes. 

In an industry where it is becoming common place for smaller, more responsive property management companies to be absorbed by large business interests, we are resisting this trend. We do not believe this serves the best interest of the Calgary condominium market. We are local Calgarians, providing local solutions to local problems. 

We are fully serviced by capable and professional personnel who can resolve any emergency issue that may arise. Our after-hours personnel are trained to assess and provide emergency services only, thereby keeping costs to a minimum. In our welcome package all owners will be given clear instructions, with contact numbers, of what to do and who to contact in case of emergencies, both during office hours as well as outside office hours. 

UrbanTec Property Management Inc. is governed by the board of directors and condominium corporations’ bylaws. Whenever possible, using these guidelines, UrbanTec Property Management Inc.  will address each concern in a timely and professional manner, specific to the nature of the issue; providing full documentation to the board of directors for review.  In the event this is outside our purview, we will bring the issue to the board of directors whereby a decision can be made regarding the concern.  

In our welcome package all owners will be given ways in which they can report a maintenance issue or emergency. In the case of an emergency a direct telephone number will be provided. All other issues can be relayed to UrbanTec Property Management Inc. through the following options.

1. Send an email to the property specific email. If you are not sure of your property specific email, please send it to hello@urbantec.ca
   • In the email, please include the following information:
     1. Property Name or Address
     2. Unit Number
     3. your Name and Contact Number
     4. Brief Description of Issue or Concern
     5. Include Pictures if Possible
2. Call 403-971-1511

The property manager will assess the urgency of the request and if necessary, because of our ability to direct in-house maintenance staff, we can respond in a timely manner.

The corporation’s books are prepared monthly and include all corresponding documentation associated with that month’s financial activity. It is up to the board of directors how much or how little information of that information they require to make informed decisions.

The bylaws of each corporation should clearly define the parameters under which arrears are handled. The property manager utilizes these directions unless specifically instructed by the board of directors to do otherwise.
