The other half of the inner-city market
The lot comes first
Every infill starts as a piece of dirt somebody read correctly. Lots are listed inside the inner city, and alongside them sit the quiet ones — old houses priced for their land. We surface both, with the lot rate, the frontage and the zoning, because that is how builders actually shop.
The teardown finder
Pre-1980 houses inside the inner city, ranked by asking price per square foot of lot — the number a builder pays. The house on top is priced closest to dirt. Zoning shown is from the listing record; always confirm the current district against the City of Calgary parcel map before you write.

What the dirt actually trades at
Land buys, from the sold record
Median land and teardown sold prices by community, from the Pillar 9 record — with how long they took. Lots move roughly twice as fast as finished homes here. We never quote land as $/sq ft of the old building — that number reads high and means nothing.
