Calgary’s current real estate market sits in balanced territory, with fresh MLS‑based data showing stable inventory, moderate sales, and price trends that vary sharply by property type.

• Average list price: $663,409

• Sales (last 30 days): 1,560

• Months of inventory: 4.3 MOI → Balanced market

• Average days on market: 51

🧭 What This Means for You

• Pricing needs to be hyper‑local — quadrant and product type matter more than citywide averages.

• Balanced conditions mean accurate pricing and strong marketing are key to avoiding extended DOM.

• Apartment weakness continues across most communities, so sellers need realistic expectations.

• Detached remains the most resilient segment, especially in NW/SW.

September has arrived and it is the perfect moment for homeowners who are considering a fall sale to get ahead of the game. The fall market in Calgary is traditionally active, with buyers returning from summer vacations and looking to settle before winter. A little preparation now can make a big difference in how confidently and smoothly a home enters that busy season.

🐊★ 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐅𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 🎄☞

Fall gives homeowners a valuable window to get their property market‑ready before winter settles in. Cooler temperatures, crisp daylight, and a natural return to routine make it easier to focus on projects that elevate a home’s presentation. Small improvements—like touch‑up painting, decluttering, exterior clean‑ups, and minor repairs—go a long way in helping a home shine during one of Calgary’s busiest buyer seasons. By tackling these items now, sellers stay ahead of the curve and avoid the rush that arrives once the holiday season approaches.

One of the most effective ways to prepare for a fall listing is to start decluttering early. Removing excess items helps rooms feel larger, brighter, and more inviting. It also makes future staging easier and ensures that professional photography captures the home at its best. Sellers who begin this process now avoid the stress of last‑minute cleanouts and can approach the fall market with confidence.

It is an ideal time for addressing small maintenance tasks that boost a home’s appeal. Cleaning gutters, refreshing exterior paint, power‑washing walkways, trimming shrubs, and repairing loose fixtures all contribute to a strong first impression. These are simple jobs that become much more challenging once cooler weather arrives.

By preparing early, sellers have time to consider staging options, review décor choices, and plan for professional photography. Homes photographed in late summer often benefit from beautiful natural light and lush greenery—assets that can make listing photos stand out when buyers begin their fall search.

Ultimately, preparing now means entering the fall market with clarity and momentum. Instead of scrambling to get a home ready, sellers can focus on strategy, pricing, and timing—ensuring their property shines during one of the strongest buyer seasons of the year.

Calgary, Alberta, April 1, 2026 – Supply conditions in March varied significantly depending on property type. Inventory levels saw a typical monthly rise, but compared with long-term trends, inventory remained well above the 10-year average for both row and apartment-style units and well below trend for detached homes. This is not a surprise given the pullback in detached housing starts last year despite record-high apartment-style starts. 

There were 1,881 sales in March, up from the previous month, but still 13 per cent lower than levels reported last year and below long-term trends for March. The decline in sales is mostly due to pullbacks in apartment-style activity, where increased supply choice and slower migration is spreading demand across a wider range of supply. Meanwhile, detached sales have also slowed compared to long-term trends, likely due to limited supply choice in some city districts. 

“When considering total residential housing statistics, conditions appear to be relatively balanced as sales, new listings, inventories and prices all trended up over the previous month as we start to move into the spring market,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. “However, when we look deeper, we are seeing a market that ranges from tighter conditions for detached homes to the apartment sector, where conditions tend to favour the buyer. As expected, this is supporting upward momentum in detached prices and downward pressure in the apartment condominium sector.” 

The total unadjusted benchmark price in the city was $565,600, up nearly one per cent compared to February but down by more than four per cent compared to last year. After the first quarter, benchmark prices posted modest to stable conditions for lower density homes. However, apartment condominium prices continued to slide, dropping another three per cent in the first quarter compared to the fourth quarter of last year. 

Detached

The detached market is exhibiting the tightest conditions compared to all other property types. With 982 sales and 1,614 new listings in March, the sales-to-new-listings ratio rose to 61 per cent, while inventory levels remained similar to those reported last year. With just over two months of supply, conditions in March closely resembled those seen last year at this time. However, conditions varied across the city, with less than two months of supply reported in the North West, West, South, South East and East districts. Meanwhile, conditions were relatively balanced in both the City Centre and North districts, while the North East district continues to struggle with higher supply relative to demand. The detached benchmark price was $741,300 in March, down by three per cent over last year’s peak price of $766,600. However, tight conditions in most parts of the city are driving some price gains. After the first quarter, the largest quarterly gain was reported in the West district, followed by the City Centre and South districts.

As of March 2026, the Calgary real estate market is shifting from a long-standing seller's market toward more balanced conditions, with rising inventory and slower demand reducing competition, particularly for lower-priced homes.

Key Market Trends (February 2026)

• Inventory & Sales: Inventory has increased significantly, providing more options for buyers and reducing the intense competition from previous years.

• Pricing: While detached home prices have remained relatively stable or seen minor increases, the overall benchmark price has seen some declines, particularly for apartments and row homes.

• Market Conditions: The market is shifting from a strong seller’s market to a more balanced, or "balanced-to-seller," environment, allowing for more negotiations.

• Regional Variation: The Northeast and East zones have experienced the largest price declines, partly due to new supply, while other areas have seen more stability.

Advice for Buyers and Sellers

• Buyers: With higher inventory levels and less pressure, buyers have better opportunities to find homes and negotiate, though affordability remains a challenge due to high interest rates.

• Sellers: While sellers can still achieve good prices for well-priced, desirable homes, they may need to adjust expectations and be more competitive in pricing compared to the peak market
