BANK OF CANADA HOLDS AT 2.25%

No cut and no hike today. On July 15, 2026, the Bank of Canada kept its policy rate at 2.25%, with the Bank Rate at 2.50% and the deposit rate at 2.20%.

The Bank says Canada’s economy is beginning to improve and housing activity appears to be stabilizing. However, uncertainty remains elevated due to U.S. trade policy, volatile oil prices and the conflict in the Middle East. Inflation reached 3.2% in May, largely because of higher gasoline prices, but is projected to gradually return toward 2%.

For real estate, today’s decision brings no fresh borrowing-cost relief, but also no new increase. Buyers, sellers and variable-rate borrowers remain in a wait-and-see environment as the Bank balances a recovering economy against ongoing inflation risks.

The next scheduled rate announcement is September 2, 2026.

CANMORE JULY Real Estate Report
DETACHED + HALF DUPLEX | 3-MONTH MARKET SNAPSHOT

The last 3 months show a noticeable shift in the Canmore detached and half duplex market.

New listings held steady in April and May at 19, then dropped to 14 in June. Sales also eased month over month, moving from 18 in April, to 13 in May, and 11 in June.

What stands out is the pace of the market. The sale-to-list ratio stayed strong, holding near asking price at 100.0% in April, 97.5% in May, and 97.8% in June. But median cumulative days on market increased from 22 days in April to 57 days in June.

That tells us the market is still active, but buyers are becoming more selective. Proper pricing matters more as homes are taking longer to sell than they were earlier in the spring.

My realtor REALTOR opinion. I’ve seen the market becoming a balanced to a slight weight towards a buyers market. Typically sales volume slows down summer time but it appears that it hasn’t moved the needle much in terms of sales volume this year.

BANK OF CANADA HOLDS AGAIN

No rate cut this time. On June 10, 2026, the Bank of Canada held its policy rate at 2.25%, with the Bank Rate at 2.50% and the deposit rate at 2.20%.

What stood out in this announcement was the tone of uncertainty. The Bank pointed to the ongoing Middle East conflict, higher energy prices, global supply-chain disruption, and continued U.S. trade policy uncertainty as reasons to stay cautious.

For real estate, that means buyers, sellers, and variable-rate borrowers are still in a wait-and-see environment. Borrowing costs did not rise today, but there is also no new relief yet. The Bank has now kept the policy rate at 2.25% through its January, March, April, and June 2026 decisions.

In other words: the market is still dealing with uncertainty, and today’s rate hold reflects that.
