Normally I do not write reviews, but after working with Emerald Management & Realty Ltd, I feel like they really deserve it. They made breaking my lease early to move into a new place easy and less stressful than I had anticipated. They were really helpful in responding to any and all of my inquiries regarding moving out, from the time I had applied until the present. One of the better rental companies in Calgary wants to ensure that the apartments are kept clean and well-maintained in partnership with the tenants. Without a doubt, renting from this company is worthwhile.

My wife and I had a good experience with one of the property managers, Rachel Darilay; she was swift to respond to our requests or concerns we had during our stay. She helped us negotiate the most reasonable price for our rent.

As a person who relocates frequently due to work, I've dealt with various property management companies, but Emerald is exceptional. Their seamless rental processes, user-friendly technology, and responsive team make each transition smoother. They offer a sense of stability in an otherwise chaotic lifestyle, and I'm grateful for their professionalism

Emerald Management is a seasoned and qualified property management company. In my experience, they properly handled my property very well. They were always available to answer my questions and were very responsive to my requests. I always felt confident in their abilities to take care of my property. I would definitely recommend them to others. Thanks

I originally was going to leave a very frustrated review, as to be honest this management company has not been very supportive, or helpful, with my concerns and my landlords. However, I dealt with Saye last week, and she made the experience quite a lot better. After explaining my many frustrations with this team, she was able to help my boyfriend and I with the problem we had, and even stayed at work later to ensure we had the access we needed. Should you have to deal with anyone, I recommend her, as she was very efficient, pleasant, and fast with her service.

Saye, you made quite an awful experience with your company, a lot better. Thank you for your time, I am very grateful.

Our property manager Laurianne is the best!
She always responds kindly and quickly to any problems/questions around this building and makes sure they are resolved. Also, She is willing to help others. This time, I was in trouble due to a sudden heavy snowfall, but she came out and helped me even though she was on vacation.
Always grateful to her and lucky to have Laurianne as our property manager! ️

Those in need of a competent and trustworthy property management firm have my genuine recommendation of Emerald. I've had them take care of my property for over a year, and they never cease to amaze me with their professionalism and attention to detail. They have a great team of experts who handle everything from maintenance to tenant relations, and they respond quickly and proactively to any issues that arise.

I’m tenant and I have roof to be fixed due to some pipe repair. The job has been done by O’Neil George. I’d like to mention that he has done wonderful job. He was on time and very easy to deal with. I really appreciate his professionalism. Thanks Neil!

One star because there were no stars in the minus to choose from - Since when were there ever any honest and accurate descriptions put out about themselves by property management and ownership companies - I was (naively) impressed by this company 's self write-up on the internet. With high hopes of finally locating a company to rent that is caring, helpful, honest and professional, I placed a call.

But lo and behold: a very young voice answered the phone, doing her best impression of a mature adult - I kept quiet other than asking who I could speak with RE rentals - and was transferred to another very young voice on a voicemail. Considering the place I now renting, run by an under-30 bunch who have made being a tenant here for many of us, a nightmare due their lack of concern for others, lack of morality, and seemingly zero training for the posts of authority they've been given, I'm searching for a mature property management to deal with.

I phoned the receptionist again and nicely mentioned my concern, requesting anyone over 40 or 45 do be transferred to - and, sure and the sun rises, what I got from this millennial was stunning in its immaturity and lack of even remotely accurate comprehension of my simple words, and a verbal attack because of course that younger generation takes offense to literally everything that fails to fit into their inexperienced view of the world.

I can't say I am sorry for reacting negatively to her arrogant rudeness and childish handling of what should have been what
the false advertising of this company: helpful and concerned.
NOT!

Moral of the story: Almost all property management companies are the same - thanks to this typical specimen of the staff that represents the actual attitude and treatment of tenants BEFORE I signed a lease.
06 April 2023 4:15
You can trust this firm completely. The staff is fantastic, and they never fail to go above and beyond for the benefit of the tenants. If you need someone to manage your property, you should hire them.
24 March 2023 3:00
Today I got stuck at snow I was so frustrated and nervous but my property manager Laurianne came to me and helped me from disaster. Even she is on vacation she came to me right away I feel so fortunate. I am glad i have perfect property manager

Don’t rent with Emerald management & realty any property around the city. They literally didn’t return my damage deposit money. I left the diplomat building on November, 2022, located on 14 Ave Sw in Calgary, Alberta. I left the unit super clean and with no damage. They just came up with a conclusion that they couldn’t return my damage deposit, cause I left earlier, which in the contract says. If you break up the lease earlier there was a fee of $300 dollars which I think it is a bit acceptable. But, taking all my money away is not. So, please do not rent with them, unless you want them to vanish your money away. Be careful with them.
10 December 2022 10:33
Emerald is an excellent property management company because they are reliable, efficient, and affordable. They have a wide range of services to offer, and they are always willing to help their clients. They are also very professional, and they always take care of their customers. I recommend them because they are a great company that offers great services.
04 December 2022 17:49
My experience with them has been pleasant so far. I was looking for a property management to take care of my home and have it rented while I'm out of province. I have been properly informed of the whole process and I'm satisfied with the transparency of the documentation and timely communication.
03 December 2022 17:22
I would like to thank Emerald Management Teams for their quick response to maintenance issues within the apartment. Recently, I had leakage issues with my sink in the Kitchen and I gave them a call. Surprisingly, the leakage got fixed within a day and I am extremely happy about their prompt response.
21 November 2022 2:34
Emerald Management has been a tremendous help during my brief time renting from them! I have zero complaints about anyone who works at/with/for their establishment! I strongly recommend renting property from them! They make everything pretty much hassle free!
19 November 2022 15:49
I have recently partnered with Emerald to manage my apartment. They seem well organized and have well engaged me in the process. My account manager is a professional and committed to safe and smooth business. I am happy to work with him and sissified with the efforts he is making
17 November 2022 2:33
It is, without a doubt, one of the best experiences I've ever had. Knowing that I'll be moving my wife and two newborns into a property managed to such high standards gives me complete peace of mind. Thank you for making this next stage of life so enjoyable. I am I am beyond thrilled to be living here. Thank you, Emerald, from the bottom of my heart. Everyone has gone above and beyond to make me feel cared for.
31 October 2022 2:27
As a business owner, I've had many businesses manage my properties over the past ten years. I believe this business goes above and beyond to ensure everything is satisfactory. They will ensure that you, the tenant, are given all the correct information and are incredibly professional and responsive. I am constantly recommending them to friends and family because I am pleased with their service and attention to detail.
23 October 2022 13:17

I've had a great experience working with Emerald and the team over at Property Management. They have always answered my questions promptly and have provided an excellent customer experience. We had an ambitious timeline to get my home rent ready, and followed-through every step of the way. I highly recommend them!
19 July 2022 9:51
When we first started looking for a house to buy, we had no idea what we were doing. We didn't know where to start or what questions to ask! Emerald Management helped us throughout the entire process and was quick to respond when we needed help. Thank You
13 July 2022 20:06
We have recently appointed Emerald Management to manage our apartment block and it was a good choice. I have had a number of issues with my flat, but my property manager is very approachable, always willing to listen and provides invaluable guidance regarding the issues. Highly recommended!
02 July 2022 15:28
My wife and I feel very fortunate to have found Emerald to help us with our recent purchase of a townhouse. It is absolutely necessary to have an agent who is knowledgeable, always on top of things and can move quickly. Emerald was all of these things and more. Communication was excellent, he was always available to answer our questions via phone, text or email. We highly recommend Emerald Management & Realty Ltd!
01 July 2022 1:08
Emerald Management & Realty Ltd helped me find a tenant for my rental property. I wanted to say that the level of professionalism and responsiveness I experienced through the entire process was outstanding! The team helped me contact the right people to make final fixes and professional cleaning of the property, the agreement between Emerald and myself was clearly explained. They proved to be a good, open firm that I can trust. The entire process was done with minimal stress for me, it was just superb! I highly recommend Emerald management needs. I will use them again in the future.
19 June 2022 1:34
I found Emerald Management extremely unprofessional, unresponsive and highly incompetent from our move-in inspection to our move-out. Our property manager was slow to respond to queries, often needing me to initiate any follow ups for things like reimbursements or queries on maintenance. We put in a maintenance request two weeks prior to moving out that was never resolved. Additionally, an untrained individual was responsible for our move-in inspection and missed significant items.the house was left a disgusting mess that required extensive cleaning by my wife and I. After we moved out, they have withheld $700 to "paint" walls that were already damaged prior to us moving in.

I sleep better at night knowing that I no longer have to put up with this company's incompetence. I have no idea how they have won any awards.
15 June 2022 23:10
Emerald Property Management is a very professional, helpful and dedicated management company. Our Property Manager is awesome. He is always available for any questions or concerns we may have. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a great property manager.
16 January 2022 9:03
We had a great experience with Emerald Management. Though we only had the opportunity to work with them for a year, they will be my first call with our next investment property.
07 January 2022 23:26
My wife and I are very pleased with how you are managing our property. We are considering buying another rental property and will definitely use you as our property manager. Thank you.
05 January 2022 8:02
Alex Jablonsky - Condominium Property Manager is absolutely fantastic. Her responsiveness and accurate guidance are priceless. Alex does care and will offer any support needed even after working hours. Thanks Alex for the unique experience and all your efforts to welcome me to my new home.
01 January 2022 9:07
The whole team at Emerald has been extremely helpful and friendly. We asked many questions and they responded in each case, trying to be very solution-driven. All of this is carried out online on their dedicated site, or by email and so it is easy to communicate with them. The team has been professional and we feel at ease in our dealings with the team at Emerald Management - we would use them again if seeking a long term rental property.
01 January 2022 2:03
The manager is very responsive to tenants concerns, and they provide solutions to any complain very fast.
24 December 2021 10:31
We just rented a property managed by Emerald Management and they were all very friendly, and made it super easy for us to move in. We went from the application process, to signing the lease and moving in all in three days!
21 December 2021 9:21
Jodena was professional and very enthusiastic in our communications! I would certainly recommend Emerald to people who are looking for a great staff along with good value.
17 December 2021 6:34
My initial experience with Emerald has been awesome. Their rental criteria is clear cut and to the point. Any time I had a question, they were quick to answer. I had a few issues with my application, but that was due in large part to a mistake that I made and the leasing team was so understanding and was willing to fix my mistake. Anytime they needed extra information, they reached out in a timely manner. We are excited to move into our home! Thank you Emerald Management!
14 December 2021 21:32
We were kept well informed about activities relating to the property and the surrounding area. Great communication and professionalism!
12 December 2021 0:14
EXCELLENT PROPERTY MANAGER! We were long-time tenants and we could always rely on Emerald Management for responsiveness and professionalism. They took care of maintenance issues quickly and would collaborate to come up with solutions to any concerns. Highly recommend it!
10 December 2021 7:06
I've had the pleasure of interacting with Jodena, she is the utmost professional and courteous individual ever. She was able to address my needs and take care of all my issues effortlessly and efficiently. 10/10 would use Emerald Management for all of my needs

Tiffany and Curtis were very accommodating to my inquiries. Had a smooth transaction with them.
29 November 2021 13:23
I was recommended to Emerald through a friend, and have been very happy with the services I have received from them. Ryan and Adam have been very professional and knowledgeable when it came to all my questions and concerns, and were also able to get my property rented out very quickly. Emerald has made me very comfortable turning over responsibility for my property and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any property management services.
25 November 2021 11:22
I had help from the kindest person named Ana. She was so helpful and informative. She helped me understood the process needed for condo docs and was so informative and calm.
18 November 2021 7:27
I can’t thank Emerald Management enough for getting my family into the perfect home. We spent months searching for a house with no luck. The team really took the time to listen to our situation and help us find a home. They always answered emails and questions. The move-in process has been stress-free and easy. They give you all of the information you need and are there for any questions. I’m so grateful for them! We’re very excited to get settled into our new home.
15 November 2021 15:59
Ryan, who showed me the property was wonderful. Very helpful and responsive. Actually talking to the property manager was a great experience also. I had an issue with the sink and they sent someone over the very next day. I have never had that quick of response before. Very professional and would absolutely recommend their properties.
10 November 2021 21:45
I'm very impressed by the friendly knowledgeable service that I received from Sarah Roberts. Her professionalism is unlike any other management company I've ever dealt with.
07 November 2021 22:32
I’ve worked with Emerald for literally decades and have always found the staff and owners to be fully engaged with their clients and always ready to go the extra mile to provide outstanding service and support.
05 November 2021 15:18
Emerald is the best! I never have to worry about my properties, they are professional, responsive and handle everything for me. By far the best service I've ever received.
11 October 2021 4:51
Emerald Management has been spectacular with their customer service. I have always said that all places and companies have issues, but the key to a good company is how they handle the issues. Our manager has done a wonderful job of supporting me as a resident of one of their homes and has shown professionalism and knowledge. I have really appreciated that level of support from a property management company.
11 May 2021 18:04
I’ve worked professionally with Emerald as the property management company of our rental units and have had a great experience. They show the utmost care for our properties and tenants, and always get things done in a timely manner. We’ve experienced nothing but great communication, promptness and professionalism in working with them.
11 May 2021 12:11
My condo management contacts have been friendly and on top of our condo board’s requests. They have done a great job of addressing our needs.
07 May 2021 15:42
Responded quickly to the work order and went all around town to track down the right parts he needed for the older plumbing in our heritage building. Fixed the problem same day. Great experience.
07 May 2021 2:45
Happy to be living at a Emerald property. They are very professional and quick to respond to any inquiries that arise. Any time I have had to contact them they have resolved the issue within 24hrs or less. The maintenance team is also very courteous, kind and happy to help.
29 April 2021 18:53
I rented with them a Duplexe for three years, it was very old unit not renovated, has mice, windows were not isolated leaking air, kitchen very very old, and carpets were very old, but I had no other choice.
At the end of the lease I cleaned the unit as I received it, but they took all the deposit.
That's was very bad and surprised me, I will never ever rent with them again.
25 April 2021 12:36
My experience with Emerald has so far been very fantastic. Their quick response to concerns and complaints is highly commendable. I would highly recommend anyday.
02 April 2021 20:27
Glad to have Wendy on my management team. She is highly knowledgeable Property Manager. She has been instrumental in executing projects and maintenance and aided me in the decision making process to be able to provide a great home for families to come. I’ve enjoyed working with her and the rest of her people. Cheers!
24 March 2021 18:46
I’ve rented through Emerald for over 2 years. My experience was great. I only had a few things that needed attention while living there and they were attentive and responsive in addressing my needs.update: I have now been moved out of the rental property for 3 months. I had a little bit of issues in terms of my security deposit. I was charged for something that was broken before my move-in and had documented it in my condition report and had pictures to prove it. I filed a dispute and although having to wait two weeks longer then the time they requested to address it, my dispute was acknowledged and treated fairly. I still recommend Emerald. As long as you pay your rent and take care of the property, you won't have major issues.
23 March 2021 20:29
I have had a positive experience with Emerald. I have been working with Jodena and Doris my NR4 requirements and they have been very helpful, responsive and professional. Although my process has taken a while for a variety of reasons, they have always kept me informed and not been overwhelmed with my many questions and persistence. Definitely recommend!
25 February 2021 5:22
Ryan Petropoulos was terrific; very personable, thorough, communicative, detail-oriented, and timely. Overall great experience working with an Emerald Management Leasing Agent. Thanks Ryan!)
11 February 2021 8:31
I have had positive dealings so far with Emerald management. The promptness of response to all my concerns is really commendable. I have no concerns whatsoever with them up till date. I would definitely refer anyone to them.
02 February 2021 16:21
Tried to setup a viewing with Ryan. Asked me to meet during business hours. I explained I work and was not able asked if someone else could assist me. He just didn’t respond and went along with his weekend. Very unprofessional and unhelpful. I hope the owner of the property knows they are losing potential renters to Ryans weekend plans.
11 January 2021 17:42
My experience was amazing. A lovely lady named Tiffany was happy to give me a phone call and answered all of my burning questions and gave me a plethora of properties that she personally felt I would like. (spoiler alert, she was right.) This business trains their employees to truly care about the client in a way that feels personal whilst keeping it professional. I will definitely recommend Emerald Management & Realty Ltd to my friends and family members. Excellent service!
08 January 2021 7:35
I am so impressed, after looking for 3 weeks on a daily basis for an apartment I was blessed to be approved today for an apartment. Everywhere else I had applied had a 3 to 4 day wait before you heard back. I'm very blessed that today happened in just over an hour. Would definitely recommend Emerald Management
08 January 2021 2:04
I was happy with quality of work I.
I would have liked to have seen it happen a little quicker. Each time I've had do you have my appliances looked at there was a longer wait time than I anticipated. Emerald management on the other hand was extremely quick and answering me and getting a work order.
09 December 2020 15:29
The painter you guys sent out named O'Neil was extremely Professional and respectful of our property we have been renting & living in this place for 20+ years and I must say the exterior of our house looks better then the day we moved in. I would definitely recommend his service to anyone that asks O'Neil Great Job 10/10 Service & Extremely friendly
16 November 2020 23:12
We stayed with Emerald Management for many years and I could not be happier. They were professional, responsive and truly caring. They got us a new fridge, had floorwork done on the stairs after I complained about the old one. Anytime I needed them, they were there. There were three different managers during this time, and with all three I had wonderful experience. I even remember how flexible they were when I wanted to re-rent the property to my friends, when I was moving out.
Comparing with the management company, we had to deal with now, I cannot be more grateful for my past experience with Emerald.
26 October 2020 4:56
On time great communication the best thing is he took off his shoes as i was bare foot and relaxng i think he felt at home lol awesome
19 October 2020 0:35
Our condo board (Arches of Crossfield) changed management companies. Emerald is still cashing my cheques!
Update: got my money refunded!
14 October 2020 20:32
My property manager was very reliable and I mainly dealt with her. The speed of service sometimes fluctuates but overall the response time has been really good especially during COVID. If I couldn't get a hold of my manager, the receptionist was always able to find someone that could help me. I really like the repair request that is online. Overall, great and the people seem professional and helpful.
11 September 2020 19:33
Called several times about a duplex for rent and no answer or call back until they rented it to some else.actually texted me the day they rented it to some else and asked me what duplex i was looking at.after i left an address and listing id in my voice mail.
03 September 2020 22:34
Attention it is an agency of thieves!
they take your deposit without any evidence.they are unprofessional.
26 August 2020 7:56
Vous êtes qu'une bande de VOLEUR. Agence qui ajoute plein de frais lors de la cession de bail. Sur 1100 dollars l'agence nous rend à peine 100 dollars. Le manageur ne répond jamais au mail. Ne gère pas le suivie de dossier. Je vais vous assignez en justice. VOLEUR VOLEUR ESCRO ARNAQUEUR

Finally the heat went back on even though its summer it was cold in the building and I am freezing all the time. 5 stars for Sundance
04 August 2020 7:15
Don't waste your time calling these guys.

They seem completely disinterested in renting or even showing their rentals.

Check out their Yelp reviews. 1.5 Stars. Wow

I left detailed voicemails asking to view the rental.

They got back to me 'twice'. By text.a 5 days later.

The first text said

"Sorry the unit is rented"

then another one 2 days later from a different person saying

"What is the address of the unit you wish to view? "
23 July 2020 9:17
Didn't know anyone was coming out to paint. The gentleman was very professional. I think he did the best he could with the supplies he had.
The next day there was someone else come out to just repair or replace some of the boards in the falling down fence.
It was great to have these things done but there are more important things that need to be done, like cleaning or replacing the eaves that were not cleaned in the fall. I have small trees growing in the eaves or the roof that needs replacing.

I had a good experience up until we moved. They didn't return our deposit. They charged us for the carpet even though there were stains on it before we moved in and they had people coming in to give quotes to replace the carpet so they could sell the house. It makes no sense that we were charged for stains on the carpets. The house had problems before we moved in that we were charged to fix. Very disappointed.
