I spent part of today at an economic forecast hosted by Royal LePage Benchmark with Ann-Marie Lurie, and I came home with pages of notes and a lot to think about as we head toward 2027.

There is a lot of noise in the headlines right now, but there are also some very solid fundamentals here at home. Employment growth, people continuing to choose Alberta, and the relative strength of our economy all matter when we look at what comes next for housing.
At the same time, Calgary real estate has changed. More inventory means more choice for buyers, and not every segment of the market is behaving the same way.
That last part is important.
You really can’t talk about the “Calgary market” as one market anymore. What’s happening with an apartment can be very different from a detached home. One neighbourhood can be moving quickly while another is taking longer. Price point matters too.
I put 4 of my biggest takeaways from today into this post.
And yes, I took a ridiculous amount of notes 😂
If you want them, send me a DM and I’m happy to share them.
