Condo Property Management Guided by Innovation

Where standards are meant to be challenged isn’t just a snappy soundbite. This is something that we’re continuously striving for – challenging how we can better serve you and your condo board.

With this drive, we’re proud to work with a number of innovative companies whose technologies are transforming the condo industry. Not to mention, they all share the same commitment to creating more efficient buildings for happier and healthier residents! From equipment sensors to renewable energy, innovation is disrupting how condos were previously managed, bringing greater efficiencies, risk mitigation, and enhancing the life of the buildings and people we support.

Our Condo Property Innovations

Sensors

Partnering with BiLD, a Calgary-based company who looks at buildings the same way we do – technology will better support the infrastructure of a building and the people who reside within. Currently, we’re implementing their innovative sensor technology in a number of condo buildings. This helps your board make better decisions based on the information gathered from the sensors.

Motion Sensors: Mitigate risk, better predict mechanical system failure, and potentially enjoy more cost savings by assessing the full value of your current remote monitoring contract.

Thermocouple Sensors: Acting as an early warning system for potential freezing in pipes, this sensor is meant to help you proactively avoid costly pipe bursts in the middle of winter!

Learn more about how these sensors are improving the health and lifecycle of buildings!

Solar Initiatives

Partnering with Natural Energy Generation, solar power is not only available, but affordable for Catalyst clients. With free installation, monitoring, and maintenance condo boards benefit from the simplicity in the panel design removing concerns about building damage. In addition, the building’s energy costs will be reduced compared to natural energy costs, ultimately benefiting the condo corporation and its residents.

Discover how this innovation is improving condo buildings.

Living Reserve Fund Studies

Outdated Reserve Fund Studies are a thing of the past. Designed through BiLD, this app allows your RFS to be a living document, where you can update the information in the study as they happen. This better informs your board and engineers when making both financial and maintenance decisions as it provides a more accurate assessment of your building.

Remote Lock Box Monitoring

While lock boxes are nothing new, the ability to monitor them is. With remote lock box monitoring, your condo board can now monitor and control who has access to the lock box. If a building key goes missing from the lock box, your board can easily identify who the last person who accessed the lock box and contact them to return … or cover costs for losing the key.

Contact Catalyst to learn more about how your board may benefit from this service.

The team at Catalyst is simply amazing. Our condo board switched to Catalyst a few months ago, they have been incredible. We have had problems with other management companies in the past, and Catalyst has restored my faith that good management is actually possible. There team is always eager and willing to answer calls and find solutions. Day, Night, weekend or holiday, These guys are always there when owners or tenants need something. Using modern technology to streamline communication their team is able to get information to owners tenants and board members immediately. They use a system of apps and, websites to enhance the management process, and they are always still just a phone call away if you prefer communication the old fashioned way. If you are looking for new property management Catalyst is by far the best you will find.

The experience with Catalyst is beyond wonderful. The team is always available - responding to whatever the needs of the condo are, whether big or small. Catalyst provides constant feedback/updates, keeps owners and the Board in the loop on all major activities, uses technology and multiple streams of communications, and ensures our condo is operating without issue. Can't recommend them enough!

As a board member I’m very thankful we made the change to Catalyst. Drew Spencer and his team run a condo Mgmt company unlike any other and provide service that is second to none. I highly recommend them for any condo looking for the best possible experience.

Catalyst is a pleasure to work with. All the staff I have dealt with are fantastic. They make it easy for us to do a great job and do not make us feel like just another contractor. We love working with Angie and her team at catalyst!

We switched to Catalyst condo management and things have been so much better. Any questions get answered in a reasonable time, all service requests are complete and it seems like this company actually cares about our building instead about how much money we pay them. Good Job so Far

I’ve been a Board member on multiple Condos both here in Calgary, as well as abroad for many years now. I’ve never found a “perfect” condo management firm anywhere, but without a doubt I am happy to say I feel I’ve finally found in Catalyst a company that comes the closest by far and is heads and tails above the regular service offerings that seem to be out there.We’re just coming up to our first year anniversary with them and everyone on our Board shares the same feeling that they have been a blessing after having dealt with other companies that seem to all follow the same playbook based upon just win the contract with promises then reduce the service to the minimum level possible so they can maximize their margins.They truly are “breaking the mold” on Condo Management support in Calgary.

We switched condo companies to save on costs. You clearly get what you pay for with this company. They are sub-par to put it politely. There has been a light out in our hallway for weeks that has not been changed. They also do not answer the emergency line as its connected to the owners cell. When I was locked out of the condo one night and had to phone over 5 times with no answer I had to resort to disturbing all other residents by buzzing them through the intercom to get in the front door. I have brought this to the board members attention, but one member was away. Hoping we can switch to a better run company asap! First Management never caused me any issues and while they charged a fee for the emergency number they at least answered and responded to inquiry's promptly. Avoid this company at all costs, don't be fooled with the lower prices and fancy online resources it is not worth it at all. If I could rate zero stars I would.

Thank you so much Douglas for the fantastic service as a property manager. We had some challenges with an existing tenant that I had placed before working with Douglas. Douglas provided great advice, was available when I needed him and helped resolve some complex issues. If you want piece of mind, and someone who is willing to listen and take the time required for excellence in service, I highly recommend working with Douglas and Catalyst Management.

After years of poor service at FSR, our 8-unit condo board switched to Catalyst, and we've been so happy we did. We've been with them for over a year, and they have saved us a lot of money already. We reviewed our budget and realized that we were being over-charged for very simple services by FSR, and now have a budget that works with our size. I'd strongly recommend them. Not only is our budget back on track, but we've also had better service now than we have had for years. Thank you, Drew and Angie and the whole team!
