Nick's Take
Erin Woods is the east Calgary community for buyers whose primary constraint is budget. At these prices for detached housing, the value per square foot is genuinely difficult to match anywhere in the city. For buyers who understand what renovation work the older stock requires and can budget for it accordingly, Erin Woods delivers.
