Real estate IT in Calgary, Alberta

Technology counsel and delivery for real estate firms in Calgary, backed by senior oversight from Ali Sedighi, MBA.

The IT partner for Calgary brokerages and developers

Calgary is a corporate and energy hub in Alberta. ITRE serves real estate firms in Calgary with managed IT, wire-fraud protection, compliance-minded record keeping and the integrations that connect a CRM to a website and a phone line. Engagements begin with a conversation with an experienced advisor, not a sales script, and continue with plain-language reporting your managing broker, owner or council can read in five minutes. We serve every region of Canada, and Calgary receives the same standard as any other.

What the local economy asks of your systems

Because Calgary draws on energy, agriculture, construction, logistics and a growing technology sector, clients and counterparties arrive from many industries and expect modern, professional handling of their information. Offers, mortgage documents and identification arrive by email and phone, and each is a potential point of exposure. We help Calgary firms design a secure, repeatable route for those records, so that quality of service and quality of protection rise together.

Support that keeps pace with a closing calendar

Real estate does not slow down for a help desk's business hours. ITRE supports Calgary clients remotely through phone, email and portal, with extended coverage and an escalation path for closing-day problems. When equipment, cabling or a network installation needs hands on site, we coordinate trusted local trades near Calgary, including Lethbridge, Red Deer and Edmonton, and supervise the work against a written scope.

A measured first ninety days

The first ninety days with ITRE follow a simple pattern for Calgary firms: stabilise, secure, then improve. We stabilise by inventorying what you own, secure by closing the highest-risk gaps, and improve by agreeing a roadmap with a budget. You receive a short written summary each month and a call with your advisor each quarter.

Industry knowledge, not generic IT

Our Calgary engagements draw on practice with home builders, appraisers and real estate teams, so conversations begin from the vocabulary of your business: trust accounts, subject removals, completion dates, rent rolls and draw schedules. That familiarity shortens discovery, avoids wasteful hardware and ensures the technology we recommend serves the way your transactions are really conducted.

Keeping Calgary offices working through disruption

In Alberta, firms contend with winter cold, hail, wildfire and flood events. A listing office that cannot reach its files, or a sales centre that loses connectivity on launch weekend, bears a real commercial cost. We plan continuity around the way real estate actually operates: cloud-hosted records, tested backups, a second internet path for critical sites and a short written plan that names who calls whom and in what order.

What technology costs for a Calgary firm

Pricing is published as starting-from ranges. Managed IT begins at $89 to $199 per user per month depending on scope, projects start at $2,500, advisory retainers from $1,500 per month and a brokerage cybersecurity assessment from $1,900, all in Canadian dollars with 5% GST added. New Calgary clients receive a 10% launch discount, there is no lock-in, and the first thirty-minute consultation is free.

Wire fraud and impersonation risk in Calgary

Business email compromise is the most expensive everyday threat to real estate firms, and it does not respect city limits. A Calgary brokerage, law office or developer can be targeted simply because deposits and closing funds move through it. Our protection programme pairs hardened mailboxes, domain protection and alerting with a short call-back procedure for any change in payment instructions, and we rehearse it with your staff using realistic closing-day scenarios.

Questions and answers

Can you help Calgary firms protect against wire fraud?
Yes. We harden mailboxes, monitor for look-alike domains and suspicious forwarding rules, and help you adopt a short call-back procedure for any change in payment instructions. We also run briefings with realistic closing-day scenarios for staff and agents.
Who will I speak with at ITRE?
You will speak with a senior advisor from the start. ITRE is a sub-brand of SAZ.ca and Sedighi.ca, led by Ali Sedighi, MBA, who has more than seventeen years of delivery experience and personally reviews the guidance we publish.
Is there a contract lock-in for Calgary clients?
No. After onboarding, engagements run month to month. You retain ownership of your domains, accounts and data from the first day, and we provide a documented handover if you decide to leave.
Can you support agents who use their own devices?
Yes. We use mobile device management and app protection to separate brokerage data from personal content, enforce encryption and updates, and allow remote removal of brokerage data without touching an agent's personal photographs or messages.
Does ITRE support real estate firms in Calgary?
Yes. We serve brokerages, developers, property managers, strata corporations and the professionals who work with them in Calgary. Most support is delivered remotely from Vancouver, and we coordinate on-site work through trusted local trades when a visit is required.
