Finding a renovated, move-in ready two-bedroom condo in Edmonton under $100,000 in 2026 shouldn’t exist.

But it does.

The Numbers

Before anything else—space, layout, location—this is about the math.

Because this is where it stops being “interesting” and starts being obvious.

The average rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Edmonton is $1,568/month—before utilities, parking, or any control over future increases.

Here’s what ownership looks like:

  • Minimum down payment (5%): $4,995

  • Mortgage (4.04%, 25-year, insured): $518/month

  • Property tax: $64/month

  • Condo fee (includes heat, water, parking): $454/month

Total: ~$1,036/month

That’s about $530/month less than renting.

And instead of paying someone else’s mortgage, you’re paying your own.

Rundle Heights: One of Edmonton’s Most Underrated Neighbourhoods

Rundle Heights is a mature northeast Edmonton community overlooking the North Saskatchewan River Valley. Established in the 1970s, it’s stable, functional, and often overlooked—which is exactly why the value still exists here.

What sets it apart isn’t just the neighbourhood itself. It’s what it sits beside.


Rundle Park

Rundle Park is one of the largest and most versatile parks in Edmonton.

Most people drive across the city to use it. Here, you walk.

  • Beach volleyball courts

  • Sports fields and baseball diamonds

  • Paddleboat rentals

First-time buyers ready to stop renting

Anyone priced out of the “starter home” market

This: $99,900

Same neighbourhood. Same access. Different entry point.


The Smart Buy

Edmonton is still one of the most affordable major cities in Canada—but even here, renters are spending $18,816/year on housing they don’t own.

This changes that.

With a $4,995 down payment and monthly costs beating rent by over $500, this is one of the few properties where the numbers are clearly in your favour.

Top-floor. Renovated. Well-located.
