Understanding RMS Measurements in Calgary Real Estate
In Calgary’s competitive real estate market, accuracy matters — and when it comes to property size, nothing is more important than RMS measurements.
The Residential Measurement Standard (RMS), set by the Real Estate Council of Alberta (RECA), ensures consistency and transparency in how homes are measured and reported. This protects buyers and sellers from misinformation and helps agents market properties with confidence.
Why RMS Matters for Real Estate Agents
For REALTORS®, RMS compliance is more than just a box to check — it’s a safeguard against liability. By providing precise, RECA-compliant measurements, you’re ensuring your listings meet industry standards and building trust with potential buyers.
Benefits for Buyers and Sellers
For Buyers: RMS measurements offer a clear, standardized understanding of a home’s size so there are no surprises after moving in.
For Sellers: Accurate measurements can highlight a home’s full potential and prevent disputes during the transaction.
