Calgary’s real estate market today (August 10, 2026) is showing a cooler, slower pace with rising inventory, softer prices in several segments, and more balanced—sometimes buyer‑leaning—conditions.
Citywide Snapshot (Early August 2026)
Median price: $508,250 (↑ 20.2% MoM)
Total sales: 106 (↓ 87.1% MoM — seasonal slowdown + rising inventory)
Average days on market: 48 (↑ 182% MoM — homes taking longer to sell)
Sale‑to‑list ratio: 97.8% (slightly softer pricing power)
These numbers reflect a market that is still active but no longer running at the breakneck pace of 2024–2025.
Breakdown by Property Type
Detached:
Median price $574,500 (↑ 4.9% MoM)
Avg. DOM 43 (↑ sharply)
Still the most resilient segment, but slower absorption.
Townhomes:
Median price $410,000 (↑ 4.4% MoM)
Avg. DOM 80 (↑ 321% MoM — major slowdown)
Condos/Apartments:
Median price $323,500 (↑ 12.8% MoM)
Avg. DOM 46
Oversupply remains a theme; buyers have leverage.
What This Means for Calgary Today
Buyers: More choice, more negotiating power, especially in condos and row homes.
Sellers: Pricing strategy matters; DOM is rising across all categories.
Investors: Rental demand still supported by positive interprovincial migration.
Overall: A cooling but still healthy market—far from the downturn years of 2015–2019.
