Does Renting a Room Make Your Property a Rental Property in Alberta? 🏡

Does Renting a Room Make Your Property a Rental Property in Alberta? 🏡
Does Renting a Room Make Your Property a Rental Property in Alberta? 🏡 💬 In this Q&A clip, Raman explains an important legal distinction in Alberta real estate — whether renting out a room in your home makes it a rental property. Here’s what you’ll learn in this session: 🏠 Owner-Occupied Rentals: • If you live in the property and rent out a room, it’s not typically considered a full rental property. • You remain on-site, managing and maintaining the home directly. 🏢 Non-Owner-Occupied Rentals: • If you’re renting out multiple rooms and do not live on the property, it’s classified as a rental property, with different rules and responsibilities. Understanding this difference is crucial for homeowners, investors, and future real estate professionals to stay compliant with Alberta’s regulations and landlord obligations. 👉 Learn more or enroll at 📲 Subscribe for more Alberta real estate Q&As, tutorials, and exam prep tips!

Why We Pull the Title and Historical Title in Alberta Real Estate 🏡 | Must-Know for REALTORS®
Why We Pull the Title and Historical Title in Alberta Real Estate 🏡 | Must-Know for REALTORS® In this Q&A clip, Raman explains why real estate professionals in Alberta should pull both the current title and the historical title when working with a property. Here’s what you’ll learn in this session: 📄 Current Title Search — Confirms the legal owner, outstanding liens, mortgages, encumbrances, property tax issues, and other registered interests. 🏠 Historical Title Search — Reveals past issues that may no longer be listed on the current title, such as: • Previous drug house notices or grow-op history • Flooding or DRP grant history • Remediation or environmental concerns • Ownership changes and timelines By reviewing both, agents can protect their buyers, ensure accurate contract information, and flag potential issues before conditions are removed. 👉 Want to learn more about how to read and interpret land titles in Alberta? 📚 Enroll at 📲 Subscribe for more Alberta real estate Q&As, tutorials, and exam prep content!

Is a Mobile Home a Condominium in Alberta 🏡 Key Differences Explained
Is a Mobile Home a Condominium in Alberta? 🏡 | Key Differences Explained In this short Q&A clip, Raman explains why a mobile home is not considered a condominium under Alberta real estate law — and how ownership works differently. Here’s what you’ll learn in this session: 🏠 A mobile home park is typically owned by an investor or single owner. 📍 Each site is leased to the mobile home owner — meaning they own the home but not the land. 📝 The entire park sits on one land title, unlike condominiums which are divided into multiple individually owned units. 🚚 Because mobile homes can be moved and the land is leased, this setup does not fall under the Condominium Property Act. Understanding this distinction is essential for real estate students and agents, especially when advising clients on ownership rights, financing, and resale considerations. 👉 Learn more or enroll at www.albertarealestateschool.com 📲 Subscribe for more Alberta real estate Q&As, tutorials, and exam prep tips!

Condo Classifications in Alberta | Conventional, Bare-Land, Bare-Land Built-Out & Barely Blended 🏢🏡 In this Q&A session, Raman breaks down the four main types of condo classifications in Alberta real estate and how they work in practice. Here’s what you’ll learn in this clip: 🏢 Conventional Condos — Unit boundaries defined by walls, floors, and ceilings. 🌿 Bare-Land Condos — Ownership of land parcels, often used in recreational developments. 🏡 Bare-Land Built-Out — A hybrid of land ownership and detached single-family homes with condo corporation-managed common areas. 🏗️ Barely Blended — Large developments that combine bare-land and conventional condos, often developed in multiple phases. This is an important concept for real estate students, agents, and investors to understand — especially when advising clients on RPR requirements, common property responsibilities, and bylaw implications. 👉 Learn more or enroll at 📲 Subscribe for more Alberta real estate exam prep and practical tips!

Transferring the Land Title in Alberta | Costs, Taxes & Legal Steps Explained 🏡
Transferring the Land Title in Alberta | Costs, Taxes & Legal Steps Explained 🏡 In this Q&A excerpt, Raman explains what happens when you transfer the land title of a property in Alberta — whether it’s between family members, partners, or other ownership changes. Here’s what’s covered in this quick session: 💰 Capital Gains Consideration — If the property value has increased since purchase, you may need to pay capital gains tax on 50% of that profit. 🏦 Mortgage Perspective — If there’s a mortgage, you’ll need to re-qualify or deal with possible penalties. 📜 Legal Process — If there’s no mortgage, the title transfer is straightforward. A lawyer typically handles the paperwork, and the transfer fee is around $200. T his is an important topic for future licensees and property owners to understand.

Key Hand-Off on Possession Day | How the Final Step Works in Alberta Real Estate
Key Hand-Off on Possession Day | How the Final Step Works in Alberta Real Estate In this short Q&A clip, Raman explains how the key hand-off works on possession day in a typical Alberta real estate transaction. Once the buyer’s lawyer sends the funds to the seller’s lawyer and the funds are confirmed in trust, the seller’s lawyer notifies the seller’s agent that the keys are releasable. From there, the buyer’s agent gets the go-ahead — and that’s when the buyer finally gets possession. 🏡✨ This is a critical step in closing a deal, and understanding this sequence helps new agents guide their clients confidently through possession day. 👉 Want to learn more about Alberta real estate transactions? 📚 Enroll at Start your career in Real Estate today!

What Happens to the Deposit When a Real Estate Deal Falls Through in Alberta 💰🏡
What Happens to the Deposit When a Real Estate Deal Falls Through in Alberta 💰 🏡 In this Q&A clip, Raman explains one of the most common questions buyers have — what happens to the deposit if the deal doesn’t go through? Here’s what’s covered in this session: 💵 Before Condition Removal — If conditions like financing or inspection aren’t satisfied, buyers can back out legally and get their deposit back. 📄 After Condition Removal — Once conditions are waived, the deal is firm. If the buyer backs out, they lose the deposit and may face legal action. ⚖️ Real Case Example — Raman shares a real scenario where a buyer in Toronto lost their deposit and had to pay the difference when the property value dropped. Understanding this process is crucial for new agents, buyers, and sellers to protect themselves and avoid costly mistakes. 👉 Want to learn more about Alberta real estate transactions? 📚 Enroll at 📲 Subscribe for more practical Q&As, tips, and exam prep content!

Trustees...How Does It Work?

Trustees...How Does It Work?
Setting up a trust for real estate is a way to manage property ownership and ensure a smooth transfer of assets. A trust allows the property to be held and managed by a trustee for the benefit of designated beneficiaries, often used in estate planning to avoid probate, maintain privacy, or manage assets for minors or dependents. A will also plays a key role in real estate planning. It names an executor, who is responsible for managing the estate, including selling or transferring real property according to the deceased’s wishes. If there is no will, the estate goes through probate, and the court appoints an administrator to manage and distribute assets based on provincial laws. This process can delay the transfer of property and may not reflect the deceased’s intentions. Start your career in Real Estate today!
