Price declines driven mostly by apartment condominiums
Calgary, Alberta, August 4, 2026 – As we move into the second half of the year, it is not a surprise to see slower market activity. In July, both sales and new listings eased over June levels, declining to 1,904 sales and 3,323 new listings. Sales were nine per cent lower than last year’s levels, while new listings were 15 per cent lower. The adjustment in both sales and new listings caused little change in the sales-to-new-listings ratio, which sat at 57 per cent.

In July, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price was $569,200, down slightly over June and two per cent lower than levels reported last year. The persistent oversupply of apartment condos is contributing to a steeper price decline of over eight per cent. Meanwhile, at the other end of the spectrum, detached prices have eased by under two per cent compared to last year, mostly driven by adjustments in the North East and North Districts.

“Several consecutive years of high construction levels and the sudden drop in mostly international migration have contributed to the shift in housing market conditions mostly for higher-density homes, a transition that started in the second half of last year,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at the Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB®). “While new home construction is slowing, there are over 17,000 apartment-style units under construction. This continues to weigh on rental and higher-density properties, driving price adjustments.”

While demand has slowed this year, levels remain stronger than those reported during the challenging market conditions experienced from 2015 to 2019. What has shifted significantly is the additional supply choice across the housing spectrum. Total resale inventory levels remained relatively stable compared to both June and July 2025. However, the slower July sales pushed the months of supply up to three and a half months. While the months of supply is rising across all property types, conditions remain mostly balanced in the detached and semi-detached sectors. In the higher-density sectors, the market continues to favour the buyer for apartment-style homes with nearly five months of supply, while row is experiencing some signs of oversupply.

Summer festivals aren’t just events, they’re what give Calgary neighbourhoods their heartbeat. 🎉

When parks and streets fill with music, markets, and neighbours chatting over fresh produce, you feel the sense of belonging that’s hard to manufacture in any other way. Local markets and farm stands become the spots where residents connect with artists, producers and each other, turning errands into spontaneous gatherings.

These community-driven moments are more than entertainment, they show just how intentional Calgary communities are about welcoming new faces, supporting local businesses, and fostering long-term relationships. Volunteer-led events keep neighbourhoods active and vibrant, which many homeowners recognise as a sign of a healthy, thriving place to put down roots.

It’s no wonder buyers and sellers pay close attention to how engaged a neighbourhood feels during festival season. 🌞

How have local events shaped your sense of community in Calgary? I’d love to hear what makes your neighbourhood feel special!

Calgary’s real estate market saw a notable shift this June as high-density supply began to impact apartment condominium prices. While total sales reached 2,197 units, an improvement over May, activity remained nearly four per cent lower than last year. The citywide unadjusted benchmark price sat at $572,500, which is a slight increase over the previous month but two per cent below levels reported in June 2025. 📈

The most significant changes are appearing in the apartment sector, which has transitioned into a buyer’s market. With nearly five months of supply and inventory levels 24 per cent above typical trends, the benchmark price for condos fell to $299,000, representing a year-over-year decline nearing nine per cent. This inventory growth follows several years of record-high housing starts in the rental, resale, and new-home markets, coupled with a recent easing in migration. 🏙️

In contrast, the detached market remains relatively balanced with a benchmark price of $750,500. While this is one per cent lower than last year, supply remains limited in certain areas. Districts such as the West and City Centre continue to report record-high prices, with the West district seeing year-over-year growth of nearly four per cent. Conversely, the North East is experiencing excess supply, leading to price declines of nearly seven per cent for detached homes. 🏠

The semi-detached and row sectors are also navigating varied conditions. Semi-detached prices remained stable at $694,600, while row housing saw year-over-year price adjustments across all districts due to increased supply choice. In the surrounding region, Airdrie and Okotoks have seen some price easing, while Cochrane has maintained more stable conditions with benchmark prices less than two per cent lower than last year. 📊

Navigating these diverging market conditions requires a data-driven approach. Whether you are looking to capitalise on the buyer's market in the apartment sector or searching for a detached home in a competitive district, I am here to provide the rigorous analysis and clear communication you need to make a confident decision.

A summer festival does more than fill a calendar, it gives a neighbourhood its heartbeat. 🎶

In Calgary, July brings a wave of street festivals, farmers’ markets and pop-up events that invite neighbours out of their routines and into shared spaces.

Each event, whether it’s a bustling music festival or a laid-back market stand, helps residents connect, supports local entrepreneurs and adds to the personality that makes a neighbourhood feel like home. 🌞
