How to Stay Competitive in a Soft Rental Market:
Filling Units Faster & Keeping the Good Tenants You Have

This practical, data-informed session will focus on what’s actually changing in Calgary and Alberta — and how landlords and property managers can respond without eroding long-term performance.

You will learn:

  • What’s driving today’s vacancy increases and tenant mobility in Calgary and across Alberta
  • The most common mistakes landlords make in soft markets — and how to avoid costly overcorrections
  • How to upgrade your listings and leasing process to attract more qualified applicants, not just more inquiries
  • Which incentives work, which don’t — and how to use them without quietly damaging cash flow
  • Why response time is emerging as the single biggest leasing advantage in 2025–26
  • A practical tenant retention framework to reduce turnover and stabilize revenue
  • How to lower turnover costs using a clear, step-by-step approach
  • What high-performing landlords and PMs are doing differently in this market cycle

Presented by:
Wayne Morishita, Executive Director of the Calgary Residential Rental Association (CRRA)
