Were Calgary home prices up or down in July? Surprisingly, both.

The average residential sale price was up 2.0% from a year ago.

The benchmark price was down 2.1%.

And the median price was almost unchanged.

None of those numbers is wrong—they measure different things.

July also saw a larger share of sales occurring above $1 million, which helps explain why the average sale price could rise even while benchmark prices were declining.

I broke down what the three price measures actually mean and why the distinction matters for Calgary buyers and homeowners:

🏡 Calgary’s detached market remained balanced in July — but depending on where and what price range you’re looking at, conditions can feel very different.

In my July 2026 Calgary Detached Market Report:

📊 Benchmark Price: $743,900
🏠 Sales: 1,012
📋 New Listings: 1,707
🏘 Inventory: 2,939
⚖️ Months of Supply: 2.90 — Balanced Market

One of the biggest things that stood out was the difference between price ranges.

Sales under $500,000 were up 83% from July 2025, and sales at $1 million+ were up 11.5%. Meanwhile, sales declined across several of the price ranges in between.

There were also significant differences by area. The West had 1.96 months of supply, while the North East had 5.11 months.

So while Calgary detached is technically a balanced market overall, that doesn’t mean every buyer or seller is experiencing the same conditions.

I break down the numbers by price range and district in the full report here:

🏠 Calgary Real Estate Market — July 2026

Calgary remained a balanced market in July, but there’s a much more interesting story underneath the city-wide numbers.

Detached and semi-detached homes remained relatively firm, while buyers had considerably more supply to choose from in the row and apartment markets.

A few July numbers:

📊 Calgary overall: 3.48 months of supply
🏡 Detached: 2.90 months
🏘️ Semi-detached: 2.89 months
🏠 Row: 3.90 months
🏢 Apartment: 4.90 months

Benchmark prices also moved very differently by property type. Apartments were down 8.37% year over year, while semi-detached homes were down just 0.30%.

So when someone says “the Calgary market is balanced,” the next question should be:

Which part of the Calgary market?

My July report looks at sales, inventory, prices, property types and district-level differences across the city.

If you’re thinking about buying or selling in Calgary, the numbers for your particular property type and area are much more useful than the city-wide average.

Calgary remained a balanced housing market in June 2026, with 3.09 months of supply and a benchmark price of $572,500.

But conditions were not the same across the city.

Detached and semi-detached homes remained comparatively resilient, while apartment buyers generally had more selection and negotiating room. Conditions also varied geographically, with the North East, City Centre and East carrying more than four months of supply.

My June Calgary Monthly Market Report looks beyond the city-wide averages to explain:

• Where the market is becoming more buyer-favouring
• How conditions differ by property type and district
• What the current evidence means for buyers and sellers
• The indicators to watch through the remainder of the summer

Are newer homes really easier to resell?

Most people assume the answer is yes.

After all, newer homes usually offer modern layouts, updated finishes and fewer maintenance concerns.

But when I analyzed 12 months of Calgary MLS® listing outcomes, the results were not what I expected.

Recently built homes were generally less likely to sell and often took longer to sell than many older homes.

Why?

That turned out to be the most interesting part of the analysis.

In this article I explore several possible explanations and share what the data revealed.

Can you still buy a home in Calgary for less than $300,000?

The answer is yes—but understanding what that budget actually buys is just as important as finding available listings.

Many buyers focus on price first. In reality, factors such as property subtype, building quality, monthly costs, and future resale potential often matter just as much.

I recently put together a practical guide covering:

✅ What types of homes are typically available under $300,000
✅ How to evaluate properties in this price range
✅ Why resale and marketability matter
✅ Where buyers often find value
✅ How to search more effectively

One interesting pattern I noticed while reviewing Calgary MLS® activity over the last decade:

communities do not all hold value for the same reasons.

Some seem to benefit from broad buyer participation and housing diversity.

Others maintain resilience through scarcity, prestige, or highly specialized demand.

I put together a short video breakdown comparing communities like Bridgeland, Seton, Acadia, Elbow Park, and Downtown West End.

Why do some Calgary communities seem to stay desirable through almost every market cycle while others experience sharper swings?

I recently analyzed 10 years of MLS® sales activity across several Calgary communities and found something interesting:

Communities don’t all maintain value for the same reasons.

Some appear to benefit from broad buyer participation and a mix of housing types. Others maintain demand through scarcity, prestige, location, or highly specialized buyer interest.

The article looks at communities like:
• Bridgeland
• Acadia
• Seton
• Elbow Park
• Downtown West End

and explores:
✔ housing mix
✔ redevelopment trends
✔ buyer participation
✔ liquidity / days on market
✔ and what “holding value” may actually mean over time

I also included several charts and visuals to support the analysis.
