Compared to the other big city in this province I can tell you that we pay at least 11% less in property taxes for two similarly located condos in either City with the Calgary condo assessed at 8% lower property value.

IMO anyone who thinks property taxes are too high in Calgary dont know what high property taxes are.

$100 a month on an averaged priced condo is peanuts, and thats even taking in my biased opinion that condos that takes up air (for the most part) are taxed at the same rate as a house that takes up land.
