There are dozens of builders and new communities around Calgary, and every one has different prices, home designs, lots and incentives.

We've helped dozens of buyers purchase new homes, we track 52 new-home communities every month, and it costs you $0.

Inside knowledge
We know the new-build market from the builder's side
We analyze new-build sales every month
Every month we study new-home sales across 52 Calgary-area communities: what's selling, what's sitting, price per square foot and how new homes compare with resale.
Builders rely on our updates
We publish monthly Builder Market Updates that builders use to price and plan their homes. That same insight goes to work for you when you buy.
A builder expert on our team
Cam Johnson founded and ran a construction company before real estate. He knows how homes are built, what specs cost to carry and where builders have room to move.
So much to choose from
We help you navigate it all
01
The right community
Lake or pathways, schools, commute, community fees and how fast homes are selling. We compare communities across Calgary, Chestermere, Okotoks, Cochrane, Airdrie and Rocky View so you can choose with confidence.
02
The right builder
Build quality, reputation, what's standard and what's an upgrade, warranty and service after possession. We compare builders honestly, not just the one in the show home.
03
The best value
We check price per square foot against what new and resale homes nearby actually sold for, and we know where specs have been sitting and where there's room to negotiate.
04
Layouts and lots that resell
From watching how new homes resell, we'll steer you toward the floor plans, lots and features that keep their appeal when it's your turn to sell.
05
The right price and the right deal
We negotiate for price, upgrades or a better possession date, and review the builder's contract with you before you sign.
06
Every step to move-in day
Deposits, timelines, construction updates, the walkthrough, your deficiency list and warranty follow-up. We guide you all the way.
Free for buyers

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How can a realtor help me choose a new-build community in Calgary?
We compare communities side by side using our monthly sales data: how fast homes are selling, how much is for sale, price per square foot, new versus resale prices, plus commute, schools and community fees. Then we match them to your budget and lifestyle.
What does it cost to use TNT to buy a new home?
$0. The builder pays our fee, and we make sure of that before you commit, confirmed in writing.
Which builders do you work with?
We work with buyers across the builders active in Calgary, Chestermere, Okotoks, Cochrane, Airdrie and Rocky View. We don't represent the builder when we represent you, so our advice is about what's best for you.
Which new-home layouts are best for resale?
It depends on the community and price point, but from watching how new homes resell we look at things like functional main floors, bedroom layout, garage and parking, lot position and what's standard versus upgraded. We'll walk through the plans you're considering with you.
When should I contact you?
Before your first show home visit. Many builders register your agent on that first visit, and some won't recognize an agent added later.
Do you only help with brand-new builds?
No. We'll also compare new builds with resale homes nearby, which are often the best way to judge whether a new-build price is fair.
