❓ Did you know Calgary’s housing market isn’t moving the same way for every type of home right now?

Here’s what we’ve seen in February 2026 👇

🏡 Detached homes (especially under $700K) are still in short supply, which means they’re staying competitive.

🏘 Row homes are sitting in a more balanced market with steady demand.

🏢 Condos and apartments currently have more inventory, giving buyers a bit more negotiating power.

Overall, Calgary is sitting around 3 months of supply, which is considered a balanced market — but depending on the type of property, conditions can feel very different.

📍 Airdrie update:
The market is also balanced, with benchmark prices around $512,200, about 5% lower than last year, partly due to more options from new builds and nearby communities.

💬 Thinking about buying or selling this year?
Send me a message if you’d like a quick update on what your home could be worth in today’s market.

Here's an oldie but a goodie 😂
While I was in the office this morning, this picture of Jonathan Varkey and I popped up on the screen from the Airdrie Home show 2 years ago. This was at the end of the event. Can you tell we were exhausted? 😂

We will be there again this April 18 & 19, 2026. Next time I call shotgun!!

📊 Calgary & Area Market Update – January 2026

January saw a slower start, especially for condos and townhomes, as more listings came to market and buyers took their time.

Big picture:
• Sales down ~15% year-over-year
• Inventory rising — highest January level since 2020
• Market conditions now vary a lot by property type

What’s happening by home type:
🏠 Detached homes remain the most balanced
• Under 3 months of supply
• Benchmark price: ~$724,000 (↓ ~3% YoY)

🏘️ Semi-detached homes are stable
• ~3.5 months of supply
• Prices holding relatively steady (↓ ~1% YoY)

🏢 Row homes & condos are feeling pressure
• Rising supply (4–5+ months)
• Row homes: prices ↓ ~5% YoY
• Condos: prices ↓ ~8% YoY, with the most choice buyers have seen in years

Surrounding areas:
📍 Airdrie – Balanced market, prices ↓ ~5% YoY
📍 Cochrane – Higher inventory, prices trending down
📍 Okotoks – Low supply continues, prices mostly stable

👉 Takeaway:
More choice = less urgency, especially for condos and townhomes. Detached homes are holding up better, but buyers overall have more negotiating power than this time last year.

If you want to know how this affects your specific neighborhood or home type, I’m happy to break it down

Yes 🙌

Heading into spring 2026, buyers have something they didn’t last year: lower borrowing costs, more stable prices, and better selection. With inventory in a rare sweet spot, first-time buyers who have been waiting may finally have their moment.

This is our vet. Dr. Cody Creelman at Fen Vet. He is hands down the best vet in Airdrie! This is our new kitten Clover living his best life, getting a head massage and soaking up every minute of it. I wish I took a video because it truly was the cutest thing.

Dr. Cody (and Dr. Tara Risling at Red Tree Animal Clinic in Calgary) assisted us when our dog Arrow had prostate cancer, and with that experience being as difficult as it was, they were both incredibly helpful, down to earth and educated us on everything we needed to know about the disease and the steps moving forward.

Arrow is no longer with us unfortunately, but we are more than happy to be back at Fen Vet under Dr. Cody's care. ❤️

Before I became a Realtor, I worked for TransCanada Turbines in the purchasing and sales department. With multiple branches globally, my team consisted of people from the UK, Texas, California, New York and Canada. Once a year, they all come to Canada for annual meetings and then the real shenanigans would begin. My cubicle used to be right beside the guy in the blue shirt, and for 8 hours a day, it was nothing but razzing each other and cheap shots, among working hard of course! Happy to have been able to connect with some of my old team last night and see that nothing has changed!
