Boomtown — Airdrie booming after first four months of 2012
By James Emery — Editor
A good selection of properties to choose from at a cost of 20 per cent less than Calgary has new home
buyers flocking to Airdrie.
The Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB) said for the first four months of the year, Airdrie’s 38 per cent
year-over-year sales growth outpaced Calgary’s in the same period.
“While there are several lifestyle choices that draw people to the city, Airdrie is attracting consumers
with young families who are able to purchase a single-family home that is typically newer and offers a
larger lot than what is available in (Calgary),” explained Bob Jablonski, CREB’s president.
Improving amenities in Airdrie are also attracting new residents to the city, something communities in
Calgary’s north do not necessarily provide, the CREB said.
The CREB statistics show that the benchmark price for a typical single family home in Airdrie hit
$356,900, which is a 3.5 per cent increase over the previous year.
However, the CREB said the index shows the single-family prices remain 8.5 per cent below 2007 peak
levels.
“As is the case with the entire Calgary region, housing demand is currently being fuelled by the improving economic conditions, including growth in full-time employment and migration,” said Ann-Marie Lurie,
CREB®’s chief economist.
Airdrie has nearly doubled in size since 2002.
With 2012 census numbers about to be released, significant population growth is expected again this
year, explained Leona Esau, an economic development officer with the City of Airdrie.
The population surge, coupled with increase in demand for housing, will be good for business.
“We’ve been quite busy,” Esau said. “Development permits, tenancy permits and business licences are
up in the first quarter of this year.”
Esau said the city has seen an increase in interest and some movement on land that has sat vacant in
the city since the mid-2000s.
“We’re just getting a lot of inquiries from businesses looking to locate here in retail,” she said. “Housing
boom and population growth is followed by a retail and commercial growth.”
In 2005, the city issued a total of 1,057 commercial, retail, industrial and home-based business licences.
In 2011, the total licences number spiked to 1,680.
“We’re seeing strong growth in our storefronts,” Esau added. “That’s actually your commercial and industrial buildings, which is really exciting.”
Mark Locking, director of corporate properties and community safety for the City of Airdrie, said building
permits are up 30 per cent since the end of April compared to the same time last year.
Locking said homebuyers having choice is a key reason so many are flocking to town and many are taking advantage of low interest rates.
There is a host of residential buildings to choose from, including single-family or multi-family units.
“The good aspect to the diversity here is it provides a multi-type of building construction to ensure there
is diversity and selection,” Locking said.
Locking also said the city has seen tremendous growth in accessory permits -- like detached garages or
decks -- as well as steady growing in commercial and industrial permits.
“That’s a good growth to see,” he said. “We do want to see expansion of our business sector and that
increases employment opportunities.”
Locking said Airdrie is a desirable place to live and work and believes that is attracting new residents.
“We’re always called the little city that could,” he said. “We continue to be the city that could.”
