Common FAQs
If you are in need of an Calgary Realtor right now, you can call us here.
Is “Kensington” the name of the building or the neighborhood?
In this context, it is both! While Kensington is the name of the popular business revitalization zone, Kensington by Bucci is a specific, high-end concrete condominium building located at the corner of 10th St and 2nd Ave NW.
Are the units quiet?
Yes. Unlike many wood-frame developments in the area, this is a concrete building. This provides significant sound insulation from both the street noise of 10th Street and neighbors between floors.
Does the building have visitor parking?
Yes, the building offers secure, underground visitor parking stalls, which is a rare and highly valued feature in the busy Kensington area.

What are condo fees and what do they typically cover?
Condo fees (or maintenance fees) are monthly contributions from each owner that go towards the building’s shared expenses. In Edmonton, these typically cover professional management, reserve fund contributions, landscaping, snow removal, common area maintenance (like hallways and lobbies), and building insurance. In many buildings, they also include utilities like heat and water.
What is a reserve fund and why is it important?
A reserve fund is a mandatory savings account maintained by the condo corporation to pay for major repairs and replacements of the building’s common elements over time (e.g., roof replacement, window upgrades, boiler replacement). A healthy reserve fund is crucial because it helps prevent large, unexpected special assessments (a lump-sum bill for each owner) when major work is needed.
Is buying a condo in Edmonton a good investment?
Condos can be an excellent investment in Edmonton, offering a more affordable entry point into the real estate market and a low-maintenance lifestyle. They are particularly popular in desirable areas like Downtown, Oliver, and near the University. Like any property, its value depends on location, the quality of the building’s management, and overall market trends.
What should I look for in the condo documents?
When you make an offer on a condo, it’s critical to review the condo documents. The key items to examine are the Reserve Fund Study (to ensure it’s well-funded), the annual budget, the board meeting minutes (to check for upcoming issues), and the bylaws (to understand rules regarding pets, renovations, etc.). We help all our clients navigate these documents to ensure they’re making a sound purchase.
What are the main benefits of condo living?
The primary benefits of condo living are a low-maintenance lifestyle (no shoveling snow or cutting grass), access to shared amenities (like fitness centres, pools, or social rooms), enhanced security, and often a lower purchase price compared to a single-family home in the same neighbourhood. It’s an ideal choice for first-time buyers, downsizers, and busy professionals.
