Hello! My partner and I are looking to purchase our first property in Calgary within the next 6 months. With a budget of ~$400k, we're looking at SFH with basement suites, and plan on living down/renting up (3+2). We're familiarising ourselves with the rental market and wondering if anyone can offer any tips or resources for finding rental stats? We'd like to better understand property value vs. rental prices, but our current approach of going on rentfaster and clicking different listings feels very inefficient...

At bit of background: We've got $120k in savings and are leaning towards 5% down. We're looking at properties with existing illegal suites and converting to legal, or suiting out a basement. We plan to live down and rent up. If 2 bedrooms in basement we will rent out the other as well. We are considering around Ranchlands + area and renting to students, or possibly Shawnessy/south and renting to families, but need to validate. We'd like to have a specific rental demographic in mind before buying. 

We appreciate any and all help! :)
