How New Builds are Affecting Calgary’s Housing Market

Calgary’s population has grown rapidly since 2020. The city became an attractive destination during the pandemic, fueled by the ability to work remotely, an appealing quality of life, and housing prices that were significantly more affordable than those in many of Canada’s largest cities. Fast forward to today and the landscape looks a little different. As our geopolitical and economic environment has shifted over the past two years, Calgary’s housing market has also changed. Prices have largely stabilized and, in some areas, declined from the market peak we saw in 2023. At the same time, national and local immigration

Almost 10 Years Ago, I Asked “Why?”

  Just under a decade ago, I had only been licensed for about a month when my broker, Corinne Lyall, encouraged me to attend the Royal LePage Alberta Awards. My response? “Why?” I was dealing with a serious case of imposter syndrome. I didn’t feel like I belonged in a room full of the best Realtors in the province. Corinne simply said, “It’s never too early to start rubbing shoulders with successful Royal LePage agents and begin building relationships.” She was absolutely right. That evening, Julio Flores, who was living in Fort McMurray at the time, accepted the A.E.

While detached and semi-detached homes in many price ranges continue to experience relatively tight conditions, higher inventory levels in row homes and apartments are beginning to provide buyers with more choice and negotiating power. Overall sales activity remained below the record-setting pace of recent years, however buyer demand is still active — particularly in well-priced and well-presented properties. Detached homes in desirable communities and price points under $800K

Market Report – April 2026

March is Micro-markets! It’s as simple as supply and demand… or is it? Broad, city-wide stats don’t tell the full story in today’s Calgary real estate landscape. What we’re seeing right now is a true patchwork of micro-markets, where conditions shift depending on property type and location. In March, inventory followed its typical seasonal climb, but the split is clear—row homes and apartments are sitting above long-term averages, while detached inventory remains tight. That imbalance largely stems from last year’s slowdown in detached construction, contrasted with a surge in apartment-style development. Sales activity picked up from February, reaching
