Canada Housing Faces Trade Turmoil
Canada’s housing market has been feeling the effects of shifting trade dynamics and economic uncertainty this year. Activity has dipped about 7% compared to last year, and national sales slipped just under 1% month-over-month, as many buyers pause to consider how trade tensions, oil prices, and inflation might impact their next step. With Canadian bond yields rising, fixed mortgage rates have come under additional pressure—a trend I’ve seen reflected in conversations with clients right here in Calgary. Still, industry experts anticipate that late Q3 and Q4 could remain active, suggesting there’s resilience in the market.

The Bank of Canada recently kept its policy rate steady, with inflation hovering close to 3% for a second month. Some economists are already looking ahead and see the possibility for rate cuts in 2027, but for the rest of 2026, expectations remain for either stability or a small hike before things potentially ease. The biggest momentum shift could come from a U.S. trade deal; that’s something I’m watching closely as it could signal new opportunities for buyers and sellers alike. If you’re considering your next move, it’s wise to keep an eye on the coming 6 to 12 months—being prepared is key. As always, my focus is on helping you navigate these changes with transparency and confidence, ensuring your real estate journey is informed and smooth.

From offer to keys: a guide for Alberta homebuyers
Helping Alberta homebuyers move from offer to keys is one of the most rewarding parts of my work. It all starts with understanding your true budget—taking into account not just what you qualify for, but what homeownership will really cost. Next, I guide my clients through evaluating a property’s market value, setting clear conditions, and defining sale terms that protect their interests. Submitting a strong offer—complete with a well-considered deadline—often sets the stage for successful negotiations. Once conditions are satisfied, it’s time to tackle the final details: arranging insurance, setting up utilities, and coordinating movers before possession day arrives. Every step is about more than paperwork; it’s about supporting your story and making your transition seamless. That’s the Calgary way I’m proud to offer: local expertise, trust, and a focus on new beginnings.

Canada Needs Twice the Projected Homes
Housing affordability is a topic close to home for so many of us in Calgary and across Canada. According to our national housing agency, Canada needs 417,000 to 469,000 new homes built each year through 2036 to get back to the affordability levels we had before the pandemic. That’s a huge leap from what’s currently being built—and leaves us facing a supply gap of 187,000 to 238,000 homes annually over the next decade. With construction expected to slow even as demand remains steady, it’s clear the current pace simply won’t keep up. Much of what’s being built right now is already tied up in existing projects. To truly improve affordability, we’d need to see housing construction nearly double what’s currently projected. As someone who works with buyers and sellers every day, I see firsthand how these numbers translate into real challenges and opportunities for individuals and families. Navigating this market takes local insight and a steady hand—qualities I’m committed to bringing to every client’s journey.

Canada's Housing Market Shows Steady Monthly Growth Progress
Despite seeing four consecutive months of rising home resales—up 0.5% in July—Canada’s housing market still has some ground to cover, with activity sitting 12% below the decade average. It’s a reminder that while recent trends are positive, the bigger picture is more nuanced. New listings dipped by 1.6%, tightening choices for buyers, even as national prices have increased for the second month in a row. Here in Alberta, I keep a close watch on how shifts in Ontario’s momentum and British Columbia’s slower pace could ripple through our own market. My approach is always rooted in trust and transparency, ensuring you’re equipped with the local insight and care you need to navigate these evolving conditions. Every move is unique—and your story matters.

CMHC Foresees Stable Housing Market Into Year-End
We’re seeing a continued cooling in Canada’s housing starts, with the latest numbers showing a 1.3% decline over six months to 244,149 units. Monthly, this pace is holding steady at around 229,000 units, and year-to-date starts are down by 4%. Notably, Montreal and Vancouver are bucking the trend with increased activity, while Toronto remains steady. On the other hand, completions have dipped by 11.2%.

As someone who guides clients through every step of their real estate journey, I know how shifts like these can shape both opportunities and decisions—especially for those looking to make their next move a meaningful one. Understanding these market rhythms is key to finding a home that fits your story, or making a sale that supports your next chapter. I’m here to help you navigate with clarity and confidence.

Mortgage Rates Forecast Canada 2026-2030
Looking ahead to 2026, Canada’s mortgage rates are expected to hold steady overall, with fixed rates rising just a bit and variable rates remaining unchanged. For homeowners planning their next steps, it’s important to know that about 33% of borrowers could see their payments increase—on average, fixed-rate holders may face a 20% jump. As someone who guides clients through every stage of their real estate journey here in Calgary, I always keep an eye on these trends, ensuring you have the information you need to plan with confidence and clarity. Real estate is about more than numbers—it's about helping you move forward with trust and peace of mind.

Canada Needs More Homes to Sustain Affordability
As someone who guides clients through the journey of buying and selling homes in Calgary, I see firsthand how our housing market shifts impact real people’s stories. Recent numbers show that for Canada to bring affordability back to where it was before the pandemic by 2036, we’ll need between 417,000 and 469,000 new housing starts each year. Right now, most of the new supply across the country is geared toward rentals, while construction of ownership homes has slowed noticeably—even as the increase in rentals has brought some balance to the market.

While slower population growth has made things a bit more affordable lately, the pace of building has dropped even faster than demand, which could mean we’re not keeping up with what’s truly needed. The main message I take from this: if we want to protect affordability and give more people the chance to own a home, we have to keep ownership construction moving forward. Ensuring enough homes are built now helps prevent a deeper shortage down the road, so more families can find their new beginnings.
