We Build With Heart. And With Purpose. JEMM is a Calgary-based urban developer building mixed-use communities that reflect the people who live in them. We don’t follow formulas. We build from the ground up — with community spirit, authenticity, creativity and fun.
Who We Are
We Build With Heart.And With Purpose.
JEMM Properties is a privately held real estate development firm committed to building people-first, purpose-driven urban spaces in Calgary. We believe good development is never just about land or capital. It’s about contribution. Our work reflects a deep respect for the communities we build in, and a dedication to creativity, quality, and fairness.
Founded by four longtime friends with diverse experience in construction, finance, and design, JEMM exists to offer a more human approach to urban development — one that values collaboration, art, and the lived experience of city life.

We Don’t JustBuild Developments.We Build Meaning.
JEMM has developed nearly 1,000 purpose-built rental suites in Calgary's best urban communities. Each development was viewed as an opportunity to do something new and contribute to a connected, vibrant city.
