Conditionally Sold in Just 3 Days – 898 Sherwood Blvd NW

That was fast.

898 Sherwood Blvd NW is now CONDITIONALLY SOLD after just 3 DAYS on the market—a result that speaks directly to the power of the right strategy.

Why This Home Stood Out

This beautifully maintained END-UNIT townhome in Sherwood had everything today’s buyers are looking for:

✨ 1,655 SQFT of functional living space
✨ 3 Bedrooms + 2.5 Bathrooms
✨ Bright, open-concept layout with 9’ ceilings
✨ Stylish kitchen with QUARTZ countertops + GAS STOVE
✨ Private balcony with BBQ gas line
✨ Upper-floor laundry (a must-have!)
✨ Versatile bonus/flex room + attached garage
✨ Low condo fees for easy, low-maintenance living

Add in the end-unit advantage—more windows, more light, and more privacy—and it’s easy to see why this property generated immediate attention.

Location Matters (And Sherwood Delivers)

Located in the sought-after NW community of Sherwood, this home offered:

✔️ Steps to parks, schools, and pathways
✔️ Easy access to transit
✔️ Close proximity to major shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities

For buyers, this is the kind of location that checks both lifestyle and convenience boxes.

⚡ What This Means for Sellers

3 days on market isn’t luck—it’s strategy.

When a home is:
✔️ Priced correctly
✔️ Presented professionally
✔️ Marketed effectively

…it attracts serious buyers quickly and creates momentum.

SOLD in 31 Days: Bankview Condo Outperforms the Market

The condo at 305 – 2417 17 Street SW in Bankview is officially sold — and the result tells an important story about today’s Calgary condo market.

This top-floor one-bedroom unit sold in just 31 days, significantly outperforming the average days on market of 58 days for similar properties in the area.

Understanding the Market Conditions

This sale is especially notable given the current market dynamics in Bankview:

• Average days on market (1-bedroom units): 58 days
• Current inventory: 7 months supply

A 7-month supply indicates a more balanced-to-slower market, where buyers have more choice and listings can take longer to sell. In these conditions, properties that are not positioned correctly often sit — or require price reductions.

Why This Property Sold Faster

This home succeeded because of a strong, intentional strategy:

• Strategic pricing that immediately captured attention
• Standout positioning as the lowest priced one-bedroom in Calgary
• Clean, modern presentation that appealed to today’s buyers
• Highly desirable inner-city location in Bankview

When these elements align, even in a higher-inventory market, properties can outperform expectations.

What This Means for Sellers

This sale reinforces a key point:
The market doesn’t determine your result — your strategy does.

If you’re considering selling your condo or home, it’s critical to understand how to position your property in today’s conditions to avoid sitting on the market.

If you’d like a customized plan based on your property and current market data, I’d be happy to help.

The latest March 2026 data from CREB shows a clear shift underway in the Calgary real estate market. After several years of strong seller-favoured conditions, we are now seeing a move toward a more balanced environment.

Sales and Listings Decline

Total residential sales in Calgary were down approximately 12% year-over-year in March, with similar declines reflected in year-to-date numbers. New listings also declined, but at a slower pace, resulting in increased inventory levels across the city.

This shift is important. When inventory rises faster than sales, market conditions naturally begin to rebalance.

Inventory and Months of Supply Rising

Inventory levels increased by nearly 13% year-to-date, and months of supply rose to over 3 months in some segments of the market.

This is a notable change from the tight conditions we experienced over the past few years, where limited supply drove strong competition and price growth.

Prices Showing Modest Softening

The overall residential benchmark price in Calgary is down approximately 4% year-over-year. However, trends vary significantly by property type:

• Detached homes: Down roughly 3% year-over-year, showing relative stability
• Apartments: Down closer to 9%, reflecting more sensitivity to changing demand
• Row and semi-detached: Moderate declines between these ranges

While prices are softening, it’s important to note that they remain historically strong.

Days on Market Increasing

Homes are taking longer to sell, with days on market up over 20% compared to last year. This gives buyers more time to evaluate options and reduces the urgency that defined previous market conditions.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers

We are no longer in an extreme seller’s market — but we’re not in a buyer’s market either.

Instead, Calgary is transitioning into a more balanced market where:

• Buyers have more choice and negotiating power
• Sellers need to be strategic with pricing and presentation
• Local market knowledge matters more than ever

Final Thoughts

This shift is healthy for the market overall. It creates more sustainable conditions and opportunities on both sides.

If you’re considering buying or selling, understanding how these trends impact your specific property type and neighbourhood is key.
