City of Calgary, December 1, 2025~ In line with typical seasonal trends, sales, new listings and inventory levels all slowed relative to last month. The 1,553 sales were met with 2,251 new listings, causing the sales-to-new-listings levels ratio to improve to 69 per cent. This also helped support some of the inventory adjustment. However, with 5,581 units in inventory, levels are still 28 per cent higher than last year and over 15 per cent higher than typical levels reported in November.
“Supply levels have been sitting higher than typical levels for the past three months, mostly due to the gains occurring in the higher-density sectors of row and apartment style units,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. “This is partially related to the additional supply choice coming from the new homes sector, some of which end up on the resale market, especially near the end of the year. While buyer’s market conditions are more prevalent for apartment-style homes and to a lesser extent row homes, outside of a few pockets of the market, both the detached and semi-detached markets are relatively balanced.”
The additional supply choice across resale, new and rental markets, is having the most impact on apartment and row style home prices which are reporting year-over-year price declines of seven and six per cent. In comparison detached home prices are down by two per cent compared to last November, but still higher than last year when looking at year-to-date figures. Overall, the unadjusted total combined residential benchmark* price in November was $559,000, nearly five per cent lower than last year.
*To keep the benchmark price relevant, once a year the attributes of a benchmark home are reviewed and the benchmark prices are updated. The review has been completed and the data has been updated. While all historical adjustments have occurred, old PDF monthly reports are not adjusted.
Detached sales in November were 823 units, just slightly lower than last year’s level, and relatively consistent with activity reported for November. The monthly reduction in new listings helped push down inventory levels compared to last month, but inventory remained well above the lower levels reported last year and are now relatively consistent with long-term trends. Overall, the months of supply remained around three months, reflecting a relatively balanced condition. Despite this we did see unadjusted prices trend down over last month, mostly reflecting seasonal patterns. As of November, the unadjusted detached benchmark price was $733,000, down by nearly two per cent compared to last November. However, when considering the year-to-date figures, prices are still one per cent higher than last year. Most of the downward price adjustments have occurred in the North East, North and East districts as competition from new homes and additional supply choice in other parts of the city are more heavily weighing on those districts.
November sales eased to 257, however, last year was a record high for the month and current sales remain above long-term trends. Where there continues to be more notable shifts is in supply. New listings remained comparable to last year and inventories, while reporting the typical seasonal decline, were at November levels not seen since 2018. The additional supply has caused the months of supply to remain slightly elevated, especially over the past three months. This has been placing some downward pressure on prices. In November, the unadjusted benchmark price was $424,400, down over last month and over six per cent lower than last year. While some of the monthly decline is seasonal, more persistent price declines have caused the year-to-date price to fall by nearly two per cent.
Sales in November were comparable to levels reported last year and still well above
long-term trends, but with new listings also higher than typical levels for this time of year, inventories rose to the highest November level seen over the past five years. While conditions have been generally tighter for this property type, over the past three months we have seen the months of supply remain above three months, resulting in more balanced conditions. While the unadjusted benchmark price of $671,700 did ease over last month, it remained stable compared to last year. Year-to-date price growth has been the strongest in this sector at nearly three per cent, with the largest gains occurring in the City Centre at four per cent, partially offsetting the one per cent pullback in the North district.
APARTMENT CONDOMINIUM
August sales continue to rise over last month and last year’s levels. Recent gains have caused year-to-date sales to reach 5,582 units, nearly 22 per cent higher than last year’s levels and a new record high for the city. Tight rental markets and relative affordability have driven many purchasers to the apartment condominium sector. At the same time, new listings have struggled to keep pace as the sales-to-new-listings ratio bumped up to 98 per cent in August, causing inventories to ease and the months of supply to drop to one month.
The tight market conditions have been placing upward pressure on home prices, and as of August, the unadjusted benchmark price reached $309,100, a monthly gain of over one per cent and a year-over-year gain of over 13 per cent. The City Centre is the only district that did not report a monthly price gain, and prices are still below their previous highs in 2014. This is partly due to better supply/demand balances in the City Centre compared to other parts of the city.

City of Calgary, August 1, 2023 – Rising rates had little impact on sales this month as the 2,647 sales represented a year-over-year gain of 18 per cent, reflecting the strongest July levels reported on record. The record-setting pace has been driven mainly by significant gains in the relatively affordable apartment condominium sector. Despite recent gains, year-to-date sales have declined by 19 per cent over last year.
In line with seasonal expectations, sales and new listings trended down compared to last month. However, this had minimal impact on inventory levels, which remained near the July record low set in 2006. With a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 82 per cent and a month of supply of 1.3 months, conditions continue to favor the seller.
“Continued migration to the province, along with our relative affordability, has supported the stronger demand for housing despite higher lending rates,” said CREB® Chief Economist Ann-Marie Lurie. “At the same time, we continue to struggle with supply in the resale, new home and rental markets resulting in further upward pressure on home prices.”
In July, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price reached $567,700, marking the seventh consecutive monthly gain. Prices are now over four per cent higher than the previous peak in May of 2022.
With 1,197 sales and 1,587 new listings in July, inventory levels trended up over last month. However, with 1,720 units available, inventory levels are at the lowest ever reported for July. Inventory levels have declined across all properties priced below $1,000,000. Shifts in sales and inventory have caused the months of supply to trend up over the one month reported over the past several months. However, conditions remain relatively tight, and prices continued to rise this month. In July, the unadjusted
benchmark price rose to $690,500, a monthly gain of nearly one per cent and
over seven per cent higher than last July. Both year-over-year and monthly
price growth was strongest in the city’s most affordable North East and East
Districts.
While row sales, new listings and inventory levels have all trended up compared to levels seen at the start of the year, like other property types, levels are much lower than last year. With one month of supply available, conditions continue to favor the seller. The tight market conditions also placed further upward pressure on prices.
In March, the benchmark price rose to $378,100, reflecting a year-over-year gain of nearly eight per cent and representing a new monthly record high. Price growth was strongest in the city’s North East and South districts, with the lowest year-over-year gains occurring in the West district.
With only 248 new listings in July and 211 sales, the sales-to-new-listings ratio once again pushed above 85 percent. The pullback in new listings relative to sales ensured that inventory levels remained low, and the months of supply remained just over one month. With no shift in the sellers ‘market conditions, the unadjusted benchmark price
continued to trend up in July, reaching $616,800. Monthly gains were strongest
in the North East and East districts both rose by over two percent compared to
June. The only district that experienced stability in monthly prices was the
City Centre
APARTMENT CONDOMINIUM
July sales continued to rise over last year’s levels, leaving year-to-date sales 16 per cent higher than levels reported last year. This is the only property type that has reported a year-to-date gain in sales activity. This has been possible thanks to recent gains in new listings. However, conditions remain tight for apartment condominiums with a sales-new-listings ratio of 84 percent and a months of supply of1.4 months. The strong demand relative to supply for this property type has driven further price gains this month. As of July, the unadjusted benchmark price reached $305,900, nearly one per cent higher than last month and over 12 per cent higher than last July. While prices are higher than last year in every district, the city center has yet to see the same level of pressure on prices and has reported the lowest year-over-year growth at nearly nine percent.
