Acreage and country residential specialist
Finding your Alberta acreage with straightforward guidance
Moving to Alberta from BC, Ontario or anywhere else? I’m Iain Tullis, a REALTOR® with REAL Broker. I help you find the right acreage and understand wells, septic systems and county rules before you buy. I also work with buyers and sellers who already live in Alberta, not only people moving in.
Practical Details
What to check before you buy an acreage
Water
Well flow and water quality tests, explained in plain language and arranged before you commit.
Septic
What a septic inspection covers, what a failing system looks like and what a replacement can cost.
County
Each county has its own rules on building, subdividing and what you can do with your land. I’ll walk you through them.
Plain-Language Advice
Straight answers before you fall in love with a property
Buying an acreage is more than getting a bigger yard. There’s a well to test, a septic system to inspect, snow to move and a drive to town to plan for. I’ll help you work through all of it so there are no surprises after possession.
Moving from another province? I can set up video tours, line up inspections while you are still away, and explain how Alberta’s process differs from BC or Ontario, including no land transfer tax here. If an acreage turns out not to be the right fit, I’ll tell you that too.
