The Fall 2026 Edit
Calgary, picked one place at a time.
Born in print in 2020. If you got your hands on one of the paperback editions between 2020 and 2023, consider yourself lucky. The city never stops changing, so now Erin's Edit lives online, where local Calgary REALTOR® Erin Ferguson shares her favourite finds in Calgary and beyond, updated every season. No sponsors, no paid spots.

The eye behind the Edit
Erin Ferguson has always had a knack for connecting the dots. Between people and places. Between a great find and the person who would love it. Between buying a home and feeling at home in a neighbourhood. Nothing makes her happier than passing along a great person, place or thing.
She knows what it takes to turn a dream into a business. That's why nobody pays to be featured here. No sponsored posts, no paid placements, no influencer deals. Just a considered edit of places worth knowing, from someone who believes loving where you live extends well beyond your front door.
