Overall Calgary Market — Still Tight, Still Moving

Inventory nudged up to 4,966 active listings, but buyers are chewing through them just as fast, with 1,598 sales in the past 30 days. That works out to a 3.1 months-of-supply market — still firmly in seller-friendly territory, although buyers with discipline and data can absolutely win right now.

The hottest price bands sit right in the $500K–$800K range, where detached homes dominate and townhomes continue to punch well above their weight. Condos? They’re the volume game — 1,541 active and 328 sales — lots of selection but only the well-priced ones move quickly.

December usually starts the seasonal cool-down, but Calgary is Calgary: the demand doesn’t disappear, it just gets pickier.

Detached Homes — The Engine of the Market

Detached remains the heavyweight champ with 2,140 active and 851 sold, posting a strong 40% absorption rate. You simply can’t copy-and-paste land, and buyers know it.

The $500K–$700K ranges continue to behave like a conveyor belt — 403 sales out of 845 active — and even the $1M–$1.5M bracket moves better than you'd expect this time of year.

If you're selling a clean, well-presented detached home priced within shouting distance of reality, you’re going to get attention. If you're buying, hesitation is your enemy. The good ones disappear faster than a warm day in February.

Condo Market — A Tale of Two Price Brackets

Condos remain the most polarized segment in the city. Plenty of choice with 1,541 active listings, but only 21% sold in the last 30 days. Translation: buyers’ market across most brackets.

But… there are pockets of real heat:

• $200K–$300K: 542 active, 139 sold — 26% absorption, the workhorse of the condo market.

• $100K–$200K: Budget buyers showed up — 25% absorption.

• Over $1.5M: Quiet all year, suddenly posts 29% sold — because luxury buyers don’t follow rules, they follow opportunity.

Anything above $500K requires sharper pricing to get activity. The selection is great for buyers, but sellers must stay competitive or risk gathering dust until spring.

Townhomes — The Quiet Overachiever

Townhomes continue their annual tradition of outperforming expectations. With 804 active and 258 sold, the market is sitting at a 32% absorption rate, meaning townhomes are almost keeping pace with detached homes.

The sweet spot is crystal clear:

• $300K–$500K: 481 active, 167 sold — a rock-solid 35% combined absorption.

• $500K–$600K: 149 active, 39 sold — 26%.

• Over $800K? Forget it. Buyers aren’t going there unless the deal is absurd.

Townhomes remain Calgary’s affordability valve — the place buyers land when they want space but the detached segment says, “maybe next year.”

What This Time of Year Means for Buyers, Sellers & Investors

December brings out three kinds of people: the serious, the strategic, and the sleepy. Only the first two matter.

Buyers:
This is the best time of year to shop if you’ve done your homework. Competition drops, motivated sellers surface, and nobody wants to move during a cold snap — except the people who have to. That’s opportunity.

Sellers:
Your buyer pool shrinks, but the ones still shopping are deadly serious. Price it cleanly, present it well, and don’t play “wait until spring” unless you enjoy paying carrying costs for no reason.

Investors:
This is recon season. Investors who win in spring are the ones scouting in winter. Follow the absorption rates, not the headlines. The best buys are the outliers — the properties priced below their range, below trend, or below seller motivation. Calgary always has a few every week… you just need the system to spot them.

Overall Calgary Market
As of Nov 28, 2025, Calgary’s housing market is still moving at a healthy clip with 5,364 active listings across all major property types and 1,628 sales in the past 30 days. Total months of supply sits at a balanced 3.3 months, which tells us this market remains firmly in “fair game” territory for both buyers and sellers. The $400,000–$700,000 range is the clear engine of the market, carrying the highest concentration of both listings and sales. This isn’t a overheated frenzy, but it’s far from quiet — it’s a market that rewards decisiveness and good strategy.

Detached Homes remain the powerhouse of Calgary real estate with 2,314 active listings and 873 sales in the last 30 days, translating into a very strong 38% sell-through rate. The hottest price bands are $500,000 to $700,000, where sales volume is deep and competition is still meaningful. Even at higher price points, activity remains steady, which tells us move-up buyers and luxury buyers are still in the game. With months of supply sitting at just 2.7, detached homes continue to favor sellers — well-priced homes are not lingering, especially in family-oriented communities.

Condos continue to be the “thinker’s market” with 1,670 active listings and 314 sales in the last 30 days, producing a 19% market-wide sell-through rate and 5.3 months of supply. Most of the action is concentrated below $400,000, where absorption remains respectable and value-focused buyers are active. Above that price point, momentum drops sharply and patience becomes the dominant skill for sellers. This is still a selective market, but for buyers who do their homework, condos currently offer some of the best leverage, negotiating power, and long-term rental math in Calgary.

Townhomes continue to quietly shine with 855 active listings and 264 sales in the past 30 days, creating a solid 31% sell-through rate and a scarcity-leaning 3.2 months of supply. The $300,000–$600,000 range is the sweet spot, attracting both first-time buyers and investors who want low maintenance without condo fees. Sales efficiency drops sharply above $700,000, but mid-range townhomes remain one of the most balanced segments in the city — neither overheated nor sluggish — just steady and dependable.

What This Time of Year Means for Buyers, Sellers, and Investors
Late-fall and early winter in Calgary always bring a natural seasonal slowdown, but this market is entering winter with more strength than most people expect. Buyers benefit from less competition and more room to negotiate, especially in condos and higher-priced homes. Sellers who price correctly can still move property efficiently, particularly in the detached and entry-to-mid townhome ranges. Investors should be paying close attention right now — seasonal softness combined with steady demand often produces the best long-term acquisition opportunities when most people are distracted by the holidays. In real estate, winter quietly rewards the prepared.

Ignore the noise and let me help you look at the real time facts on the rare occasions when you are in the market to buy. sell or invest. 

If you are wondering what is happening in your community check out Fair Market Value Reports and 365Calgary.com

Most people look at real estate the way they look at the stock market: too much noise, not enough signal. Your neighbour says one thing, the news says another, and social media is full of opinions from people who couldn’t find Fairview on a map if you spotted them the “Fair.”

That’s where these Fair Market Value Charts come in.

They’re the noise-cancelling headphones of Calgary real estate.
No drama. No spin. No “my cousin’s friend said the market is crashing.”
Just hard, honest, fact-based data updated every single week.

And here’s the funny part — the charts look confusing for about eight seconds… until you realize what you’re actually looking at. Then the whole thing snaps into focus and suddenly you’re seeing your community with new eyes.

Let me walk you through it the same way I figured it out myself, as a homeowner — not as a Realtor.

The Moment the Chart Starts Making Sense

When I first pulled up the Fairview chart, I’ll be honest — it looked like a bowl of Smarties spilled on graph paper. Dots, triangles, lines, shading… chaos.

Then I actually read the legend.
Once.
Slowly.

And boom — everything clicked.

• Purple dots = homes that actually sold

• Blue triangles = homes currently for sale

• Orange squares = pending sales

• Purple line = fair value trend, based only on real sales

• Grey shaded area = the fair value price range (±10%)

Once that sinks in, you’re no longer looking at dots and triangles.
You’re looking at your community’s real-time truth.

No opinions.
No storytelling.
No “expert guesses.”

Just the market… being the market.

The Size Column That Actually Matters: Yours

Now here’s where the chart becomes powerful — and personal.

As a homeowner in Fairview with a roughly 1,000 sq ft place, there’s only one vertical strip of this entire chart that actually matters to me:
The 1,000 sq ft column.

It’s like the grocery store: I don’t care what beef tenderloin costs if I’m buying chicken.

Looking down the Fairview size range:

• I can see homes smaller than mine selling above the trendline.

• I can see homes bigger than mine selling below it.

• I can see a tidy cluster right around 1,000 sq ft — my territory.

And once you zoom in on just that slice, the story is crystal clear:

• Low end: just under $500K — the “needs work” group.

• Typical range: about $525K–$650K — where most homes land.

• High end: north of $700K — the “wow factor” homes.

And right there, crossing the vertical 1,000 sq ft line, is the trendline.

That’s fair market value.
Not wishful thinking.
Not “my neighbour got X last year.”
Not “Zillow says blah blah.”

Just the data.

Looking at that, I could ballpark where my home sits today in its current condition — and it was surprisingly accurate.

Highs, Lows, and the Diamond-in-the-Rough Factor

Once you see the full spread, your brain automatically starts telling the story behind the dots:

• The low prices? Probably rough.

• The high prices? Probably renovated or staged perfectly.

• The ones in between? Most of us.

And in between those extremes?
Opportunity.

This is where investors start circling like hawks.
Where homeowners start thinking, “Should I add that upgrade?”
Where buyers start asking, “Why is this one underpriced?”

A single chart gives you all of that — at a glance.

The Honest Value These Charts Deliver

Here’s the real beauty:

These charts strip away every excuse, every opinion, every loud headline, and every coffee-shop myth and leave you with the one thing that matters:

What people actually paid — last week, last month, and right now.

You cannot argue with it.
You can only learn from it.

That’s why I’ve built these charts for every community in Calgary and update them every week. It’s the cleanest way to stay grounded in reality without getting dragged into noise.

Want to Know Where Your Home Sits?

Most homeowners eventually hit the same thought I did:

“Can the guy who made these charts send me the handful of listings that actually matter for my home’s size range?”

Yes.
Easily.
That’s the whole point of this tool.

If you want:

• The comparable sales that match your home

• The active listings competing with you

• The outliers that raised the bar

• And the ones that quietly set the floor

Just ask — I’ll send them.

Calgary Total Residential Home Market Watch Report

The latest numbers paint a clear picture of a city that’s still moving — but with a bit of a wobble depending on what you’re shopping for or selling.

🔍 Active Listings Snapshot

Calgary currently has 6,280 homes for sale, spread across Detached, Condo, Townhouse, and Half Duplex categories.

• Detached: 2,849

• Condos: 1,858

• Townhouses: 997

• Half Duplexes: 576

The overall months of supply sits at 3.4, which is still in “balanced market” territory — not a full-on buyer’s or seller’s market, though detached homes are skating closer to 3.0 months, making that segment tighter.

Condos are carrying the heaviest inventory at 4.3 months of supply, meaning buyers have more leverage and choice there. Translation: if you’re looking for an apartment, it’s a good time to negotiate.

💰 Price Ranges That Matter

• The $500K–$700K range is where most of the action is for detached homes.
  These are the bread-and-butter Calgary family homes — and they’re still moving fast.

• Below $400K, the condo and townhouse markets dominate. That’s the sweet spot for first-time buyers or investors hunting for cash flow.

• Above $1M, the numbers thin out fast — 434 active listings and just 114 sales last month. The luxury market is alive, but not sprinting.

🏡 Sales in the Last 30 Days

In the last 30 days, 1,872 homes sold citywide:

• Detached: 955

• Condos: 434

• Townhouses: 304

• Half Duplexes: 179

Detached homes continue to be the market’s workhorse, making up just over half of all sales. That’s been the Calgary story for decades — and it’s not changing soon.

The midrange ($500K–$700K) is still where homes sell fastest, while the sub-$400K condo segment keeps the entry-level side of the market busy.

🧭 The Takeaway

• Sellers: If you own a detached home under $700K, it’s still your game — buyers are out there and inventory is thin.

• Buyers: Condos and higher-end properties are giving you room to negotiate. Take advantage while rates and selection are still working in your favor.

• Investors: Watch the $300K–$400K condo and townhouse segment — rents are up, and prices are still reasonable compared to replacement cost.

📈 Final Thoughts

Calgary’s market keeps doing what Calgary does best — balancing opportunity with reality.
We’re not in boom mode, but we’re far from a bust. The fundamentals remain strong: jobs, migration, and affordability (especially compared to Vancouver and Toronto) keep the demand pipeline full.

Real estate, like golf, is all about timing and position. If you’re thinking about buying, selling, or investing — let’s talk strategy before the next swing.

Whether you’re a first-time home buyer, investor, or homeowner thinking about selling, understanding the current housing market is crucial. Calgary’s latest Total Residential Home Market Watch Report from July 28, 2025, offers revealing insights into pricing trends, inventory, and buyer activity.

Here are 5 key takeaways from the data that could shape your next move:

1. 🔥 The $500K–$600K Price Range is the Most Active Segment

891 active listings and 286 sales in the past 30 days make this price range a hotspot for both buyers and sellers. It’s especially strong for detached homes, which sold 179 units—the highest in any price category.

Why it matters: This range offers a sweet spot of affordability and selection. If you're looking to buy or sell a detached home in Calgary, this is your most competitive range right now.

2. 🏢 Condos Are Still the Most Available—But Not Always the Fastest Moving

With 1,988 condos for sale across all price brackets and 484 sales last month, condos represent the largest share of inventory. However, the months of supply for condos is 4.1, higher than other property types.

Takeaway for buyers: There's more room to negotiate on condos, especially in the $300K–$400K range where 776 are active but only 183 sold.

3. 💡 Inventory is Tightest for Half Duplexes

Despite having only 511 active listings, half duplexes saw 176 sales, giving them the lowest months of supply at just 2.9.

What this means: Half duplexes are in demand and moving fast—particularly in the $400K–$600K range. If you’re looking to buy one, act quickly and be prepared.

4. 💸 The High-End Market ($1M+) Is Gaining Momentum

There were 676 active listings over $1M and 156 sold—a healthy 23% absorption rate. Detached homes make up most of this movement, with 92 sales between $1M–$1.5M and 33 sales over $1.5M.

Insight for luxury buyers/sellers: The luxury real estate market in Calgary is showing strong interest, particularly in desirable areas with move-in-ready homes.

5. 📉 Price Pressure May Be Building in the $300K–$400K Range

This segment had the highest number of total active listings (990) but relatively low sales volume (294), resulting in higher months of supply. It's especially noticeable for condos and townhouses.

Advice for sellers: If you're listing in this range, especially with a condo or townhouse, pricing strategically and staging professionally is more important than ever.

🧠 Final Thoughts

Calgary’s real estate market remains active and segmented. Whether you're looking to invest in Calgary homes, downsize, or upgrade, understanding which segments are hot and which are cooling off can help you make a better decision.

Acadia Detached-Home Market Snapshot – May 14, 2025
Jerry Charlton, Calgary Realtor® since 2002

Why Acadia Keeps Drawing Attention

Stretching across Calgary’s southeast, Acadia offers wide, tree-lined streets, quick LRT access at Heritage Station, and a solid mix of mid-century bungalows and updated split-levels. It’s a neighbourhood that lets families settle in—and investors lock down steady long-term value.

Fresh Numbers at a Glance

(Data covers the most recent 180-day period and the current inventory as of May 14, 2025. See the full market-report graphic above.)

What This Means for Sellers

• Properly priced, move-in-ready detached homes are clearing in just over three weeks.

• Anything listed above the $650 K mark needs standout finishes to earn a fast sale.

• Low inventory (16 active listings) keeps negotiating power tilted toward committed sellers.

What This Means for Buyers

• The sold-to-active ratio still signals a competitive environment.

• Focus on updated bungalows under $675 K—these draw the largest pool of buyers and rarely linger.

• Pre-approval remains a must; homes that “check all the boxes” often see multiple offers within days.

In-Neighbourhood Trends We’re Watching

1. Renovated Bi-Levels Surging: Two of three pending deals were extensively modernized bi-levels priced north of $700 K.

2. Bungalow Flips Slowing: Investors are more cautious; cosmetic renos alone aren’t achieving the same resale premiums as in 2024.

3. Garage Appeal: Nearly every quick sale this spring involved homes with an existing double garage or obvious potential for one—buyers still crave winter parking solutions.
