October 2025 CREB Market Update

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report for October 2025:

Pace of new listings growth slows, preventing further inventory gains

Inventory levels eased over last month thanks to the combined impact of a monthly pullback in new listings and a monthly pick up in sales. 

With 6,471 units in inventory and 1,885 sales the October months of supply returned to three-and-a-half months after pushing up to four months in September. While both row- and apartment-style properties continue to report elevated supply levels compared to demand, conditions remain relatively balanced for both detached and semi-detached properties. 

Year-to-date sales in the city totaled 20,082, down nearly 16 per cent compared to last year, but still in line with longer-term trends. Much of the decline in sales has been driven by pullbacks for apartment- and row-style homes.   

“Improved rental supply and easing rents have slowed ownership demand for apartment- and row-style homes. It is also these segments of the market that have seen October inventories reach a record high for the month,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. “Excess supply for apartment- and row-style properties is weighing on prices in those segments more so than any other property type, influencing total residential prices.” 

As of October, the total unadjusted residential benchmark price in Calgary was $568,000, down nearly one per cent compared to last month and over four per cent lower than last year’s levels. The largest price adjustments occurred for row- and apartment-style properties where prices have eased by a respective six and seven per cent compared to last October. 

Detached 

October sales reached 1,012 units, an improvement over last month, but still five per cent lower than last year’s levels. At the same time there were 1,593 new listings that came onto the market, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to rise to 64 per cent and inventories to trend down over last month to 2,913. Inventory levels remain slightly higher than long-term trends for the month, but with just under three months of supply, conditions remain relatively balanced and far better than conditions reported during the 2015 to 2019 period. Despite relatively balanced conditions, there are pockets of the market that are experiencing buyer’s market conditions, which is impacting prices. Citywide detached benchmark prices eased to $744,400 in October, one per cent lower than last year. However, price adjustments ranged from a year-over-year gain of nearly two per cent in the City Centre to a decline of over five per cent in the North East district. Despite recent adjustments, year-to-date prices remain over one per cent higher than last year.  

Semi-Detached

Sales improved over last month while new listings slowed, causing the sales-to-new-listing ratio to rise to 57 per cent, which is slightly lower than typical levels for this time of year, but high enough to prevent any significant change in inventory levels compared to last month. With 186 sales and 613 units in inventory, the months of supply was over three months, higher than last year’s extremely low levels, but lower than last month. More inventory choice has weighed on prices over the past several months. However, with an October benchmark price of $683,100, prices remain nearly one per cent higher than last year and on a year-to-date basis are over three per cent higher than last year. 

Row 

With 275 sales in October, year-to-date row sales totaled 3,412 units, a 17 per cent decline over last year. While row sales remain well above long-term trends, new listings have been on the rise and reached record highs so far this year. As of October, there were 1,054 units in inventory, the highest ever reported for the month and nearly 32 per cent higher than long-term averages. This also caused the months of supply to remain around four months. The additional supply choice has weighed on prices. The October benchmark price was $431,200, over one per cent lower than last month and nearly six per cent lower than prices reported last year at this time. The steady slide in row prices have caused year-to-date prices to drop by one-and-a-half per cent. Price adjustments did vary across the city with the largest year-to-date declines occurring in the North East and North districts.   

Apartment Condominium 

The pullback in new listings relative to sales this month did help prevent further gains in inventory levels. However, with 1,891 units in inventory and 412 sales, the months of supply remained elevated at nearly five months. Apartment condominiums have been experiencing buyer’s market conditions for nearly 6 months, placing downward pressure on prices. As of October, the benchmark price was $318,200, down over one per cent compared to last month, and nearly seven per cent lower than last October. On a year-to-date basis, prices are nearly two per cent lower than last year’s levels. The largest year-to-date price declines occurred in the North East and South East districts at four per cent, as those districts are either reporting the highest months of supply on the resale market or are facing significant competition from the new home market.      

REGIONAL MARKET FACTS 

Airdrie 

Activity slowed as we moved into October. While sales have remained consistent with longer-term trends, new listings reached a record high for October, keeping inventories elevated. With 535 units in inventory and 136 sales, the months of supply remained over four months. The persistently higher months of supply over the past four months, combined with additional supply choice in the new home market, has weighed on resale home prices. Prices in Airdrie have been trending down since April of this year and as of October the benchmark price was $520,400, nearly one per cent lower than last month and nearly five per cent lower than last year’s levels.  

Cochrane 

Sales in Cochrane improved this month, keeping year-to-date sales at levels that are relatively consistent with last year. At the same time, while levels remained high, new listings did trend down over last month, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to rise to 55 per cent and preventing any further gains in inventory levels. The months of supply eased to just over four months in October, higher than the low levels reported over the past several years, but relatively more consistent with long-term trends for the month. As of October, the benchmark price was $585,200, similar to last month and over two per cent higher than last year. Year-to-date prices in the area have risen by nearly four per cent. Some of the gain in prices could be related to a larger share of new homes ending up being sold on the resale market in Cochrane. 

Okotoks 

October reported 91 new listings on the market, a significant gain over last month and last year’s levels. The rise in new listings was met with slower sales activity, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to dip below 50 per cent, supporting a modest gain in inventory levels. While inventory levels are finally improving, they remain low relative to longer-term trends. This has likely prevented a more significant shift in prices in the Okotoks area. In October, the unadjusted benchmark price was $618,600, up over last month but consistent with last October. Year-to-date benchmark prices have improved by over one per cent.

September 2025 CREB Market Update

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report for September 2025:

A boost in new listings drives further inventory gains and price adjustments

The 1,720 sales in September were not high enough to offset the 3,782 new listings coming onto the market, driving further inventory gains as we move into the fall. There were 6,916 units in inventory in September, 36 per cent higher than last year and over 17 per cent higher than levels traditionally reported in September. Both row and apartment style homes have reported the largest boost in supply compared to long-term trends. 

In September, the sales to new listings ratio dipped to 45 per cent, and the months of supply pushed up to four months for the first time since early 2020. This is a higher level of supply compared to demand than is typically seen in the Calgary market and, should this persist, we could see a market that shifts more in favour of the buyer. However, conditions do vary by property type, price range and location. 

Detached 

Sales in September slowed to 859 units, nine per cent lower than last year and below long-term trends for September. At the same time, new listings rose to 1,905 units, causing the sales to new listings ratio to fall to 45 per cent, levels not seen since 2018. While there has been an unexpected shift in September, it is too early to tell if this trend will continue as prior to this month the detached market has remained relatively balanced.  

The unadjusted benchmark price was $749,900, down nearly one per cent from both last month and last year. While prices have eased from peak levels across all districts, the largest decline  occurred in the North East and East district at over six per cent. Despite recent adjustments on a year-to-date basis, prices remain nearly two per cent higher than last year’s levels, with the City Centre reporting the highest gain at over four per cent. 

Semi-Detached 

New listings rose to 361 units in September, while sales fell to 156 units, causing the sales to new listings ratio to drop to 43 per cent. This also caused a rise in inventory levels and the months of supply pushed up to nearly four months. This is a significant shift compared to last month, where there was less than three months of supply. 

Like the detached sector, it is too early to say if this trend will continue, but so far it has had minimal impact on home prices. As of September, the unadjusted benchmark price for semi-detached was $684,800, slightly lower than last month and nearly one per cent higher than last year. Year-to-date price growth has been the highest for semi-detached homes at over three per cent, as this segment took longer to shift from a seller's market to one that was more balanced. Most of the price growth was driven by gains reported in the City Centre. 

Row/townhomes

Following a pullback last month, new listings posted modest monthly gains. The 592 new listings were met with 304 sales, causing the sales to new listings ratio to fall to 51 per cent. This is not as low as the other property types and at these levels it was enough to prevent any further monthly gain in the already elevated inventory levels. September inventory levels were 1,099 units, the highest September level reported since 2018, and 30 per cent higher than longer-term trends for the month. The largest gains in inventory occurred in the North East district, which also reported the highest months of supply and price decline compared to last year. 

More supply choice has impacted resale prices, with the unadjusted benchmark price being $437,100. This is down less than one per cent over last month and nearly five per cent lower than last year’s prices. Year-to-date price adjustments have been much smaller at one per cent, as declines in the North East, North and South East districts offset the gains reported in other parts of the city. 

Apartment Condominium 

The most significant adjustment in the market occurred in the apartment condominium sector as improving rental supply, delayed adjustments in interest rates and improved selection for other property types has slowed apartment style demand from both first-time buyers and investors. September reported 401 sales and 924 new listings, dropping the sales to new listings ratio to 43 per cent and causing inventory to rise to 1,999 units. 

The rise in supply caused the months of supply to push up to five months, the first time it has done that since 2021. As elevated levels of supply have persisted since June, prices have been trending down. As of September, the benchmark price was $322,900, down over one per cent compared to last month and over six per cent compared to last year. The year-to-date price adjustment has been just over one per cent. Condo prices have slid across all districts compared to last September. The largest decline occurred in the North East district at over ten per cent, while the smallest decline occurred in the City Centre at five per cent. 

REGIONAL MARKET FACTS 


Airdrie 

New listings reached a September record high with 295 units. The gains in new listings were met with a pullback in sales causing the sales to new listings ratio to fall to 45 per cent and inventory rose to 571 units. While inventories have been generally trending up throughout this year, this is the first time that the months of supply pushed above four months since 2020. The improved options weighed on home prices, which continued to trend down this month. In September, the unadjusted benchmark price was $526,000, down one per cent compared to last month and nearly five per cent lower than last year's levels. Despite recent adjustments year-to-date prices declined by just over one per cent, not enough to offset last year's annual growth of eight per cent. 

 
Cochrane 

New listings in Cochrane also hit a September record high with 148 units. While sales are similar to last year's levels at 62 units, the boost in new listings did cause the sales to new listings ratio to drop to 42 per cent this month. This led to further inventory gains and the months of supply pushed above five months. Improved supply levels also took more pressure off home prices this month. In September, the unadjusted benchmark price was $584,300, down by nearly one per cent compared to last month, but still one per cent higher than last year's levels. Much of the supply adjustment has only recently occurred in the Cochrane market and the year-to-date benchmark price remains nearly four per cent higher than last year. 
 

Okotoks 

Okotoks was one of the few larger areas that did not see a lift in new listings in September. The 69 new listings were down compared to levels reported last year, and with 51 sales this month, the sales to new listings ratio remained elevated at 74 per cent. While inventory levels were only slightly higher than last month, the months of supply has remained relatively low at two and a half months. Despite the relatively tight conditions, prices continued to adjust in the market. This in part can be related to the competition from new properties, impacting resale prices. As of September, the total residential benchmark price was $613,900, down by over one per cent compared to last month and nearly three per cent lower than last September. Despite the adjustment, on a year-to-date basis, prices were still one and a half per cent higher than last year.

CREB Market Report August 2025

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report for August 2025:

Price declines mostly driven by higher density home types

Improving supply choice has changed the dynamics of the Calgary market driving price declines over the past several months.

Higher price adjustments are occurring for apartment and row style properties while detached and semi-detached properties have reported modest declines. As of August, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price was $577,200, down over last month and nearly four per cent lower than levels reported last year.

“Perspective is needed when it comes to price adjustments. The most significant price adjustments are occurring for row and apartment style homes as they are also the product type that are facing the largest gains in supply choice,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at CREB®. “Meanwhile price adjustments in the detached and semi-detached markets range from modest price growth in some areas to larger price declines in areas with large supply growth. Overall, recent price adjustments have not offset all the gains that have occurred over the past several years.”

August reported 1,989 sales, nearly nine per cent lower than last year. Sales have slowed compared to the high levels reported over the past four years. However, activity is still above long-term trends, reflecting relatively strong demand. What has changed is the supply situation. New listings remain elevated, keeping the sales-to-new-listings ratio below 60 per cent and pushing inventory to 6,661, the highest August amount since 2019. 

More inventory choice coupled with lower sales has caused the months of supply to rise to 3.4 months in August, much higher than the sellers' market conditions reported over the previous four years, but still well below the buyer market conditions observed prior to the pandemic. While the market is much more balanced compared to last year, there is significant variation depending on property type, price range and location.  

Detached HomesDetached home sales eased to 995 units in August, while new listings rose to 1,748 units, keeping the sales-to-new listings ratio below 60 per cent. This prevented any significant shift in inventory, as the 3,051 units were the highest levels reported in August since 2020. Higher inventory levels and easing supply have helped balance out the detached market. However, districts like the North East, North and East are experiencing buyer market conditions.   

The unadjusted benchmark price in August was $755,600 down by nearly one per cent over last month and last year's levels. While prices have eased there is significant variation depending on location. Compared to last year, prices reported the largest decline in the North East and East district at five per cent, while prices in the city centre were over two per cent higher. As many of the adjustments have occurred over the past few months, year-to-date Calgary prices remain two per cent higher than last year.  

Semi-detached Homes- August sales improved over last year’s levels, but it was not enough to offset earlier pullbacks with year-to-date sales of 1,557—eight per cent lower than last year—but higher than long-term trends. At the same time, new listings slowed compared to sales pushing the sales-to-new listings ratio up to 67 per cent and preventing any further monthly inventory gains. Inventory gains have not been as high for this product type, and the months of supply remained below three months in August. This is one of the reasons that the prices have not seen the same adjustment.

In August the unadjusted benchmark price was $687,200 down over last month, but nearly one per cent higher than last year, and nearly four per cent higher on a year-to-date basis. Price growth has varied across the city, with the largest year-over-year gains occurring in city centre. Meanwhile the largest declines have occurred in the North East, East and North districts.

Row Housing- Sales in August slowed, contributing to the year-to-date decline of nearly 16 per cent. While new listings did ease in August compared to last year and last month, they have generally been on the rise pushing up inventory levels. In August, there were 1,103 units in inventory, reaching the second highest level on record for August, only slightly lower than the record high in reported in 2018. Due to the relatively strong sales, the months of supply has only pushed slightly above three months, far more balanced than last year, but not as high as the 6.4 months report back in 2018.

Nonetheless, additional supply choice has weighed on prices. In August, the unadjusted benchmark price in the city was $439,600, reflecting the fourth consecutive monthly decline and nearly five per cent lower than last August. While prices eased across all districts, price declines exceeded five per cent in the North East, North, South and East districts. These districts generally reported high levels of supply in the resale sector or had significant competition from new home supply.  

Apartments- Sales continue to slow in August contributing to a year-to-date pullback of nearly 30 per cent. While sales are still above long-term trends, they have not been high enough to offset the level of new listings in the market. In August alone there were 877 new listings compared to the 449 sales, keeping the sales-to-new-listings ratio relatively low at 51 per cent. The low ratio that has persisted throughout this year has contributed to the higher inventory levels seen in the market. While August inventory levels did not rise over last month, with 1,979 units available, this is the highest August inventory ever reported.

The months of supply for apartment condos have remained around four months since June. The excess supply relative to demand has been weighing on prices. As of August, the unadjusted benchmark price was $326,500, reflecting the fifth consecutive monthly decline and nearly six per cent lower than levels reported last August. Most of the supply is concentrated in the City Centre, which reported a year-over-year decline of five per cent, slightly higher than the rate of decline reported in the West district at three per cent. Meanwhile, the highest price declines occurred in the North East district at over 11 per cent.

Airdrie market- Easing sales in August contributed the year-to-date decline of 12 per cent for 1,248 sales so far this year. The 152 sales this month was met with 265 new listings, pushing the sales-to-new listings ratio up to 57 per cent and preventing any further monthly inventory gains. As of August, there was 535 units in inventory, above long-term trends and the highest levels reported since before the pandemic. The rise in supply has helped shift the market to more balanced conditions. However, with more supply options in both the new home, resale markets and in competing locations, there has been some downward pressure on prices in Airdrie. In August, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price was $531,100, down over last month and four per cent lower than levels reported last August.

Cochrane market- The 70 sales this month were met with 139 new listings causing the sales-to-new listings ratio to fall to 50 per cent, the lowest ratio reported for August since 2015. The pullback in sales compared to new listings prevented any significant shift in inventory levels, pushed the months of supply up above four months. Despite the shift this month, prices in Cochrane remained relatively stable in August, with the unadjusted benchmark price sitting at $589,100, similar to last month and nearly two per cent higher than last year. On a year-to-date basis prices are four per cent higher than the previous year.

Okotoks market- New listings in August reported a significant pullback relative to sales and the sales-to-new-listings ratio pushed up to 80 per cent. While sales have generally remained in line with long-term trends, new listings have not had the same increase that other areas have reported, preventing significant gains in inventory levels. As of August, there was 116 units in inventory, a 29 per cent gain over last year, but still 30 per cent lower than levels traditionally seen in August. Despite tighter conditions, prices have reported some monthly declines. However, year-to-date benchmark prices remained two per cent higher than last year’s levels, with gains reported across each property type.

CREB Market Report May 2025

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report for May 2025:

Price adjustments mostly driven by apartment and row style homes

Last year there was limited inventory across most property types and price ranges. Recent inventory gains are creating pockets of the market that are struggling with too much supply while in other areas supply levels are still low relative to the demand, resulting in divergent trends in home prices. Both detached and semi-detached home prices have remained relatively stable this month and are still higher than last year’s levels. Meanwhile, row and apartment style homes have reported modest monthly price declines and May prices remain below last year’s levels, as improved new home and rental supply is weighing on resale prices.

Detached HomesNew listings in May rose to 2,419 units, with most of the gains driven by homes priced over $600,000. The North East district has seen the largest pullback in resale sales activity combined with some of the highest gains in new listings. This has driven the sales-to-new listings ratio down to 41 per cent and the months of supply was nearly four months in May.  

City-wide the unadjusted benchmark price was $769,400, similar to last month, one percent higher than last May, and still above last year’s seasonal peak price.  

Semi-detached Homes- The 428 new listings in May were met with 256 sales, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to rise to 60 per cent this month. This slowed the pace of inventory growth and the months of supply remained just above two months.  Semi-detached homes continue to remain less than 10 per cent of all sales and inventory levels in the city.  The North East has the highest months of supply at nearly three months and is reporting some price declines, while the tightest conditions are in the North West, where prices continue to rise.

The unadjusted benchmark price was $697,300, a monthly gain of less than one per cent, nearly three per cent higher than last year’s levels and above last year’s seasonal peak.

Row Housing- Row home sales have eased over last year’s near record high pace but stayed well above long-term trends.  However, the gain in new listings has continued to cause further inventory gains. For the second month in a row, inventory levels were over 1,000 units; we have not seen this much inventory for row units since 2021. 

We are starting to see higher months of supply in the North East district at 3.5 months, resulting in some downward pressure on prices. The North, North West and South areas have also reported higher year-over-year pullbacks in resale prices, as improved supply choice for new properties are impacting resale activity.

Overall, the benchmark price in May was $453,600, down over last month, nearly two per cent below last May, and lower than last year’s seasonal high.  

Apartments- Sales this month totaled 579 units, a significant decline over last May’s record high of 907 units. While new listings were lower than levels reported last year, they remained high compared to sales, causing the sales-to-new listings ratio to drop to 47% this month. This contributed to further inventory gains and drove the months of supply up to 3.6 months. High levels of apartment rental units under construction are adding to the rental supply and contributing to rent adjustments. This is likely slowing condo ownership demand coming from existing renters and potential investors, contributing to some of the shifts witnessed in the apartment condominium sector.

In May the benchmark price eased to $335,300, down from last month and over one per cent lower than last year. The steepest declines are occurring in the North East and South East districts, where competition from the new home market is weighing on resale pricing. While prices have eased and are below peak levels, recent declines have not offset the double-digit gains reported over the past two years.

Airdrie market- While improving over last month, May sales eased compared to last year, contributing to the year-to-date decline of 10 per cent. However, the 772 sales so far this year are consistent with long-term trends in Airdrie. At the same time new listings continue to rise causing the sales-to-new listings ratio to fall to 58 per cent, still well within balanced conditions, but a significant change from the over 90 per cent ratio reported last year. 

The shift in supply is in part related to the surge in new construction providing more options for potential consumers. Additional supply choice is impacting price growth. The total residential benchmark price was $540,600 in May, down nearly one per cent over last month and nearly two per cent below last year’s levels.

Cochrane market- Sales in Cochrane were fairly resilient until this month, where sales were 17 per cent slower than last year. The decline was enough to cause year-to-date sales to ease to levels just below those reported last year.  At the same time, this month new listings surged, driving the sales-to-new listings ratio down to 55 per cent and supporting further inventory gains.  With 293 units available in May, levels are more consistent with long-term trends. The months of supply neared three months in May and while this did slow the pace of price growth, the total residential benchmark price of $589,400 is still nearly four per cent higher than last May.

Okotoks market- A boost in new listings this month supported a surge in sales activity. However, with a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 74%, inventory levels did not change much over last month and the months of supply once again dropped below two months. 

While there have been some improvements in inventory levels, as of May levels remained nearly 28 per cent below long-term trends for the city.  The limited supply choice given the relatively strong demand has continue to support some price growth in the town. As of May the unadjusted benchmark price was $633,900, up over last month and over two per cent higher than last year.

April 2025 CREB Market Update

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report for April 2025:

Balanced conditions take pressure off prices

A boost in new listings this month relative to sales caused April inventories to rise to 5,876 units. Although this is more than double the number reported last year, last year’s supply was exceptionally low, and current inventory levels are consistent with what we typically see in April. April sales reached 2,236 units—22 per cent below last year’s levels but in line with long-term trends.

Detached HomesDetached sales were 1,102 units in April, a year-over-year decline of 16 per cent. While sales eased across most areas of the city, the South East district has seen sales rise over last year's levels. April saw 1,907 new listings come onto the market, and the sales-to-new-listings ratio remained balanced at 58 per cent. Inventories rose to 2,511 units, and the months of supply rose to 2.3 months. While this is a significant gain over the less than one month of supply reported last year at this time, conditions remain relatively tight, especially in the lower price ranges.

Semi-detached Homes- Easing sales in April contributed to the year-to-date decline of nearly 16 per cent. The 190 sales in April were met with 350 new listings, and the sales-to-new-listings ratio fell to 54 per cent. This also caused further gains in inventory levels, which reached 484 units. The rise in inventory did help push the market toward balanced conditions with 2.6 months of supply, a significant improvement over the less than one month reported at this time last year.

The shift toward more balanced conditions has slowed the pace of price growth. In April, the unadjusted benchmark price was $691,700, similar to last month and over three per cent higher than last year. The City Centre reported the largest gain, at over five per cent, while prices in the North remained stable compared to last year.

Row Housing- April sales slowed for row homes, contributing to the year-to-date decline of 16 per cent. Meanwhile, new listings continued to rise compared to last year, driving the sales-to-new-listings down to 51 per cent. In April, inventories reached 1,005 units, the highest level reported since 2021, and the months of supply rose to nearly three months. Improved supply has taken some of the pressure off prices,

In April, the unadjusted row price was $457,400, a slight gain over last month, but relatively unchanged compared to April of last year and still below last year's peak price reported in June. The pullbacks reported in the North and North East districts offset year-over-year gains in most districts.

Apartments- April sales eased by nearly 30 per cent over last year's record high but were far stronger than long-term trends. While sales have remained relatively strong, new listings in April reached a record high for the month, supporting further gains in inventory levels. With three months of supply in the city, conditions are considered relatively balanced. However, activity does range significantly based on location, impacting price movements.

The North East district reported the highest months of supply at seven months, resulting in a year-over-year price decline of two per cent and a spread of over seven per cent from last year's high. Overall, the April benchmark price in the city was $336,000, similar to last year but still three per cent lower than last year's record high.

Airdrie market- For the third month in a row, sales activity eased compared to last year's levels. Despite the declines, sales remain above long-term trends. At the same time, new listings continue to rise, but with 185 sales and 290 new listings in April, the sales-to-new listings ratio reached 64 per cent, an improvement over recent months. Inventory levels continued to trend up this month. However, after three consecutive years of exceptionally low April levels, inventory is now consistent with long-term trends. With 2.3 months of supply, conditions are moving to a more balanced state, taking the pressure off home prices. In April, the total residential price was $544,700, relatively unchanged compared to both last month and last year's levels.

Cochrane market- For the fourth month in a row, sales activity in the area has remained consistent with last year's levels, resulting in 335 sales so far this year, a nearly five per cent gain over last year and consistent with long-term trends. New listings have also been on the rise, but the sales-to-new-listings ratio has remained at 60 per cent, preventing the doubling of inventory in this market. While inventory levels have improved compared to last year, the 246 units available in April are just shy of long-term trends. Like other areas, improvements in supply have slowed the pace of price growth, but in Cochrane, prices are still edging up. In April, the total residential benchmark price was $592,000, trending up over last month and nearly six per cent higher than prices reported in the previous year and at a record high.

Okotoks market- Sales in Okotoks continue to ease compared to last year, contributing to the year-to-date decline of 16 per cent. Over the past few years, sales have been restricted by a lack of supply. However, this year we have started to see a shift. New listings continue to improve in April compared to sales, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to ease to 53 per cent, supporting inventory gains. However, with 127 units in inventory in April, levels remain below long-term trends for the month. The modest gains in inventory have slowed the pace of price growth in the area. As of April, the unadjusted benchmark price was $627,100, down slightly from last month, but nearly two per cent higher than last April.

March 2025 CREB Market Update

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report for March 2025:

Uncertainty weighing on housing market

Ongoing economic uncertainty, driven by tariff threats, has weighed on consumer confidence and impacted housing activity in March. Sales declined by 19 per cent year-over-year, totaling 2,159 units. Sales slowed across all property types, with the steepest declines seen in higher-density segments.

March reported over 4,000 new listings, causing the sales-to-new-listing ratio to drop to 54 per cent, low enough to support further inventory gains. Total residential inventory levels reached 5,154 units, and the months of supply pushed up to 2.4 months. While this is a significant change from last year, with limited supply options across all property types and price ranges, conditions reflect a better balance between a seller and a buyer today. However, the market significantly varies depending on location, price point, and property type.

Detached Homes- Benchmark price $769,800 and 2.13 months of supply. Detached sales totaled 1,035 units in March, a year-over-year decline of 10 per cent.  The months of supply continue to remain tight with less than two months of supply for homes priced below $700,000. We are seeing a shift toward more balanced conditions for homes priced above $800,000.

Semi-detached Homes- Benchmark price $691,900  with 2.24 months supply (the highest monthly level reported since the end of 2022). March sales slowed over last year's levels, contributing to the first quarter decline of 11 per cent.  Year-over-year gains ranged across the city, with the largest gains occurring in the City Centre and West districts.

Row Housing- Benchmark price $454,000 with 2.07 months of supply. March reported a surge in new listings with 697 units. The growth in new listings was met with 400 sales, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to ease, and inventories to rise from the lower levels reported last year. Supply levels improved across all price ranges, with much of the gains occurring in the North East, North and South East districts

Apartments- Benchmark price $336,100 with 3.17 months of supply. After the first quarter, condo sales reported the largest decline over last year compared to other property types. However, we achieved record highs last year, and the 1,383 sales remain well above long-term trends for the first quarter. Prices are below peak across all districts, but the largest declines have occurred in the North and North East areas

Airdrie market- The unadjusted benchmark price of homes is $554,900, with 2.49 months of supply. In March, the unadjusted detached benchmark price was $651,300, up over last month and over two per cent higher than prices reported last year. Recent gains have narrowed the gap from the peak price of $657,400 reported in June 2024.

Cochrane market- unadjusted benchmark price of homes $587,500, with 2.24 months supply. In March, detached benchmark prices reached $686,800, a gain over last month and over five per cent higher than last year. While price growth has slowed over last year, the current March price does reflect a new unadjusted record high for the town.

Okotoks market- unadjusted benchmark price of homes $630,300 with 1.81 months of supply. While price growth has eased from last year, in March the unadjusted detached benchmark price reached $715,500, a new unadjusted record high and over five per cent higher than levels reported last year at this time.

Sales remain above long-term trends despite declines

For the second month in a row, inventory levels saw substantial year-over-year growth, rising by 76 per cent to 4,145 units in February. While inventory increases were seen across all price ranges, the largest increases were in homes priced under $500,000; this increase was driven by substantial growth in the more affordable apartment and row/townhouse sectors. The overall months of supply were 2.4, similar to last month but more than double this time last year. Apartment-style units remained the most well-supplied at 3.1 months.

Detached Homes- Benchmark price $760,500 and 2.22 months of supply. Sales in February slowed to 765 units, nearly 20 per cent lower than last year. New Listings increased by nearly six per cent year-over-year to 1,265 units. The City Centre and North East districts continue to trend towards more balanced conditions, while the South and North West districts remain supply-constrained at approximately 1.6 months

Semi-detached Homes- Benchmark price $683,500  with 1.98 months supply. There were 240 new listings in February, a gain of seven per cent from 2024. Sales fell by nearly 14 per cent compared to 2024, slowing to 165 units.  There was a large variation in months of supply across the city, with a low of just one month in the North West district compared to a high of eight months in the East district.

Row Housing- Benchmark price $446,800 with 2.06 months of supply. Months of supply improved across the city; the South and East districts have the tightest conditions at under 1.5 months, while the North East district has almost three months

Apartments- Benchmark price $334,200 with 3.10 months of suppy. Driven by the record new listings, inventory increased by 90 per cent yearover-year and also pushed to near-record levels. Months of supply reached 3.1 months in February, a substantial 155 per cent increase over 2024 but still well below record levels seen in the period between the 2014 oil crash and the pandemic

Airdrie market- unadjusted benchmark price of homes is $537,600, with 2.8 months of supply. The overall Airdrie market fell roughly in line with its long-term averages in February, with sales declining while new listings and inventories rose to levels typical of the month.

Cochrane market- unadjusted benchmark price of homes $577,100, with 2.61 months supply. Inventory increased by over 48 per cent year-over-year to 196 units, the highest level seen in any month since the spring of 2021 but still below long-term averages for February in the Cochrane market

Okotoks market- unadjusted benchmark price of homes $616,900 with 1.53 months of supply. New listings increased by seven per cent compared to 2024, and, at 60 units, remained well below levels typically seen in February.

January 2025 CREB Market Update

The Calgary Real Estate Board released their latest market report:  Following three consecutive years of limited supply choice, inventory levels rose to 3,639 units. While the 70% year over year gain is significant, inventory levels remain lower than the over 4,000 units we would typically see in January, with some of the largest gains driven by apartment-style condominiums.

Detached Homes- Benchmark price $750,800 and 2.15 months of supply. With 1,448 units of inventory which is 27% lower than traditional levels. More balanced contions are taking shape in the City Centre and North East districts. On a seasonally adjusted basis prices have remained relatively stable since the second half of last year.

Apartments- Benchmark price $331,400 with 3.5 months of suppy. With inventory of 1,295 this is much higher than the levels seen over the past three years but nowhere near the 9 months of supply seen in the January before the pandemic. Improved supply has weighed on prices in the last 5 months, with some of the largest declines seen in the North, West, and South.

Airdrie market- unadjusted benchmark price of homes is $537,300, with 2.6 months of supply. Prices are up 4% since this time last year.
