The December real estate statistics have been released by CREB®, with them saying that, following several years of strong price growth, 2025 marked a year of transition thanks to strong demand and limited supply. Due to record high starts, supply levels improved across all aspects of the housing market, just as demand pressure eased due to a reduction in migration levels and heightened unit certainty that persisted throughout the spring market. This helped shift the resale market from one that favoured the seller to one that was more balanced.

In 2025, sales reached 22,751 units, down 16 per cent over last year, but in-line with long-term trends. Much of the shift came from the growth in supply. 2025 saw over 40,000 new listings come onto the market, nine per cent higher than last year, causing inventories to rise and driving more balanced conditions.

“Supply levels were expected to rise in 2025. However, the growth was higher than expected especially for apartment condominium and row homes. This weighed on prices in those sectors enough to offset the annual gains reported for both detached and semi-detached homes,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. "Adjustments in both supply and demand varied across the city, with pockets of the market continuing to experience seller’s market conditions versus some areas where the conditions favoured the buyer. This resulted in different price trends based on location, price range and property type.”

Overall, the annual average total residential benchmark price in 2025 was $577,492, two per cent lower than last year’s annual average. However, annual detached and semi-detached prices rose by a respective one and three per cent, while apartment and row homes saw prices fall by a respective three and two per cent.

Compared to other districts, the North East reported the largest decline in prices this year. While some of this is related to improved supply across all areas of the city, it is also important to note that the North East district also reported the strongest price growth over the past two years.

For the first time in three years, we are heading into the New Year with better inventory levels. Details on what is expected to happen in the market in 2026 will be released at CREB®’s annual Forecast Conference on Jan. 20, 2026.

Increased competition from the new home market, along with more supply options in competing resale markets, has contributed to the added supply in the resale market in Airdrie. Following four consecutive years of exceptionally low inventory levels, 2025 saw inventory rise to levels not seen since prior to the pandemic. While sales activity did remain in line with long-term trends despite an annual decline, the push up in inventories caused the months of supply to generally rise throughout the year. Overall, the annual average benchmark price eased by two per cent this year.

Sales in Cochrane were similar to last year and above long-term trends. While demand stayed relatively strong in the town, steady gains in supply did cause conditions to shift to a more balanced state by the end of 2025. With the shift occurring later in the year, we did not see the same downward pressure on prices. In fact, on an annual basis the benchmark price in Cochrane was $578,325, nearly three per cent higher than last year. Cochrane also tends to see a larger share of newer properties being listed and sold on the resale market, impacting the prices in the resale market.

Okotoks continued to struggle with supply growth. Inventories did rise by over 40 per cent, but levels were exceptionally low last year. Even with the gain in 2025, levels were still 30 per cent below long-term trends. Sales activity in the town remained consistent with the levels reported last year and were higher than long-term trends. The persistently low inventory levels generally kept market conditions relatively tight. However, total residential prices posted only a modest gain over last year, this is likely due to compositional shifts as price growth ranged from over one per cent for detached homes to nearly eight per cent for apartment condominium product.

The final stats release of 2025 was posted by CREB®, saying, in line with typical seasonal trends, sales, new listings and inventory levels all slowed relative to last month. The 1,553 sales were met with 2,251 new listings, causing the sales-to-new-listings levels ratio to improve to 69 per cent. This also helped support some of the inventory adjustment. However, with 5,581 units in inventory, levels are still 28 per cent higher than last year and over 15 per cent higher than typical levels reported in November. 

“Supply levels have been sitting higher than typical levels for the past three months, mostly due to the gains occurring in the higher-density sectors of row and apartment style units,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. “This is partially related to the additional supply choice coming from the new homes sector, some of which end up on the resale market, especially near the end of the year. While buyer’s market conditions are more prevalent for apartment-style homes and to a lesser extent row homes, outside of a few pockets of the market, both the detached and semi-detached markets are relatively balanced.”   

The additional supply choice across resale, new and rental markets, is having the most impact on apartment and row style home prices which are reporting year-over-year price declines of seven and six per cent. In comparison detached home prices are down by two per cent compared to last November, but still higher than last year when looking at year-to-date figures. Overall, the unadjusted total combined residential benchmark* price in November was $559,000, nearly five per cent lower than last year. 

*To keep the benchmark price relevant, once a year the attributes of a benchmark home are reviewed and the benchmark prices are updated. The review has been completed and the data has been updated.  While all historical adjustments have occurred, old PDF monthly reports are not adjusted. 

Airdrie

As per typical seasonal behaviour, sales, new listings and inventory levels all eased over levels reported last month. Overall, both sales and new listings have remained at levels consistent with long-term trends for the month, but thanks to earlier gains inventory levels remain elevated for November. Some of the rise is due to a higher share of newer homes coming onto the resale market. The additional supply over the past several months has weighed on prices in Airdrie. While it has by no means offset the gains reported over the past four years, year-to-date benchmark prices for detached homes are down by nearly one per cent compared to last year. 

Cochrane

The seasonal monthly pullback in new listings was not enough to prevent November levels from reaching a record high. While sales also remained relatively strong for November, it was not high enough to cause a more significant monthly pullback in inventories, which have not been this high in November since 2018. Some of the gains in new listings were due to a larger share of new homes being listed on the resale market. While recent gains in supply have caused some adjustments in price, prices continue to remain higher than levels reported last year. Year-to-date detached benchmark prices are nearly two per cent higher than levels reported last year.

Okotoks

Unlike other areas, sales in Okotoks improved compared to last month and were similar to levels reported last year. This in part could be related to the higher level of new listings that were available both in November and October, providing more choice to potential buyers. The Okotoks market has seen some recent gains in inventory levels, but overall supply remains well below long-term trends. Conditions have remained relatively tight in the Okotoks market and, despite some recent adjustments in prices, overall prices are still higher than last year on a year-to-date basis across each property type.

CREB® has released the October stats, reporting that inventory levels eased over last month thanks to the combined impact of a monthly pullback in new listings and a monthly pick up in sales. With 6,471 units in inventory and 1,885 sales the October months of supply returned to three-and-a-half months after pushing up to four months in September. While both row- and apartment-style properties continue to report elevated supply levels compared to demand, conditions remain relatively balanced for both detached and semi-detached properties. 

Year-to-date sales in the city totaled 20,082, down nearly 16 per cent compared to last year, but still in line with longer-term trends. Much of the decline in sales has been driven by pullbacks for apartment- and row-style homes.   

“Improved rental supply and easing rents have slowed ownership demand for apartment- and row-style homes. It is also these segments of the market that have seen October inventories reach a record high for the month,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. “Excess supply for apartment- and row-style properties is weighing on prices in those segments more so than any other property type, influencing total residential prices.” 

As of October, the total unadjusted residential benchmark price in Calgary was $568,000, down nearly one per cent compared to last month and over four per cent lower than last year’s levels. The largest price adjustments occurred for row- and apartment-style properties where prices have eased by a respective six and seven per cent compared to last October. 

Airdrie 

Activity slowed as we moved into October. While sales have remained consistent with longer-term trends, new listings reached a record high for October, keeping inventories elevated. With 535 units in inventory and 136 sales, the months of supply remained over four months. The persistently higher months of supply over the past four months, combined with additional supply choice in the new home market, has weighed on resale home prices. Prices in Airdrie have been trending down since April of this year and as of October the benchmark price was $520,400, nearly one per cent lower than last month and nearly five per cent lower than last year’s levels.  

Cochrane 

Sales in Cochrane improved this month, keeping year-to-date sales at levels that are relatively consistent with last year. At the same time, while levels remained high, new listings did trend down over last month, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to rise to 55 per cent and preventing any further gains in inventory levels. The months of supply eased to just over four months in October, higher than the low levels reported over the past several years, but relatively more consistent with long-term trends for the month. As of October, the benchmark price was $585,200, similar to last month and over two per cent higher than last year. Year-to-date prices in the area have risen by nearly four per cent. Some of the gain in prices could be related to a larger share of new homes ending up being sold on the resale market in Cochrane. 

Okotoks 

October reported 91 new listings on the market, a significant gain over last month and last year’s levels. The rise in new listings was met with slower sales activity, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to dip below 50 per cent, supporting a modest gain in inventory levels. While inventory levels are finally improving, they remain low relative to longer-term trends. This has likely prevented a more significant shift in prices in the Okotoks area. In October, the unadjusted benchmark price was $618,600, up over last month but consistent with last October. Year-to-date benchmark prices have improved by over one per cent.

CREB® has reported that the 1,720 sales in September were not high enough to offset the 3,782 new listings coming onto the market, driving further inventory gains as we move into the fall. There were 6,916 units in inventory in September, 36 per cent higher than last year and over 17 per cent higher than levels traditionally reported in September. Both row and apartment style homes have reported the largest boost in supply compared to long-term trends. 

"Supply levels have been rising in the resale, new home and rental markets. The additional supply choice is coming at a time when demand is slowing, mostly due to slower population growth and persistent uncertainty. Resale markets have more competition from new homes and additional supply in the rental market, reducing the sense of urgency amongst potential purchasers. Ultimately, the additional supply choice is weighing on home prices," said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB® Chief Economist. 

Supply levels relative to demand typically drive shifts in home prices. In September, the sales to new listings ratio dipped to 45 per cent, and the months of supply pushed up to four months for the first time since early 2020. This is a higher level of supply compared to demand than is typically seen in the Calgary market and, should this persist, we could see a market that shifts more in favour of the buyer. However, conditions do vary by property type, price range and location. 

Airdrie 

New listings reached a September record high with 295 units. The gains in new listings were met with a pullback in sales causing the sales to new listings ratio to fall to 45 per cent and inventory rose to 571 units. While inventories have been generally trending up throughout this year, this is the first time that the months of supply pushed above four months since 2020. The improved options weighed on home prices, which continued to trend down this month. In September, the unadjusted benchmark price was $526,000, down one per cent compared to last month and nearly five per cent lower than last year's levels. Despite recent adjustments year-to-date prices declined by just over one per cent, not enough to offset last year's annual growth of eight per cent. 

Cochrane 

New listings in Cochrane also hit a September record high with 148 units. While sales are similar to last year's levels at 62 units, the boost in new listings did cause the sales to new listings ratio to drop to 42 per cent this month. This led to further inventory gains and the months of supply pushed above five months. Improved supply levels also took more pressure off home prices this month. In September, the unadjusted benchmark price was $584,300, down by nearly one per cent compared to last month, but still one per cent higher than last year's levels. Much of the supply adjustment has only recently occurred in the Cochrane market and the year-to-date benchmark price remains nearly four per cent higher than last year. 

Okotoks 

Okotoks was one of the few larger areas that did not see a lift in new listings in September. The 69 new listings were down compared to levels reported last year, and with 51 sales this month, the sales to new listings ratio remained elevated at 74 per cent. While inventory levels were only slightly higher than last month, the months of supply has remained relatively low at two and a half months. Despite the relatively tight conditions, prices continued to adjust in the market. This in part can be related to the competition from new properties, impacting resale prices. As of September, the total residential benchmark price was $613,900, down by over one per cent compared to last month and nearly three per cent lower than last September. Despite the adjustment, on a year-to-date basis, prices were still one and a half per cent higher than last year.

The August statistics were released by CREB®, saying that improving supply choice has changed the dynamics of the Calgary market driving price declines over the past several months.

Higher price adjustments are occurring for apartment and row style properties while detached and semi-detached properties have reported modest declines. As of August, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price was $577,200, down over last month and nearly four per cent lower than levels reported last year.

“Perspective is needed when it comes to price adjustments. The most significant price adjustments are occurring for row and apartment style homes as they are also the product type that are facing the largest gains in supply choice,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at CREB®. “Meanwhile price adjustments in the detached and semi-detached markets range from modest price growth in some areas to larger price declines in areas with large supply growth. Overall, recent price adjustments have not offset all the gains that have occurred over the past several years.”

August reported 1,989 sales, nearly nine per cent lower than last year. Sales have slowed compared to the high levels reported over the past four years. However, activity is still above long-term trends, reflecting relatively strong demand. What has changed is the supply situation. New listings remain elevated, keeping the sales-to-new-listings ratio below 60 per cent and pushing inventory to 6,661, the highest August amount since 2019. 

More inventory choice coupled with lower sales has caused the months of supply to rise to 3.4 months in August, much higher than the sellers' market conditions reported over the previous four years, but still well below the buyer market conditions observed prior to the pandemic. While the market is much more balanced compared to last year, there is significant variation depending on property type, price range and location.

Airdrie

Easing sales in August contributed the year-to-date decline of 12 per cent for 1,248 sales so far this year. The 152 sales this month was met with 265 new listings, pushing the sales-to-new listings ratio up to 57 per cent and preventing any further monthly inventory gains. As of August, there was 535 units in inventory, above long-term trends and the highest levels reported since before the pandemic. The rise in supply has helped shift the market to more balanced conditions. However, with more supply options in both the new home, resale markets and in competing locations, there has been some downward pressure on prices in Airdrie. In August, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price was $531,100, down over last month and four per cent lower than levels reported last August.

Cochrane

The 70 sales this month were met with 139 new listings causing the sales-to-new listings ratio to fall to 50 per cent, the lowest ratio reported for August since 2015. The pullback in sales compared to new listings prevented any significant shift in inventory levels, pushed the months of supply up above four months. Despite the shift this month, prices in Cochrane remained relatively stable in August, with the unadjusted benchmark price sitting at $589,100, similar to last month and nearly two per cent higher than last year. On a year-to-date basis prices are four per cent higher than the previous year.

Okotoks

New listings in August reported a significant pullback relative to sales and the sales-to-new-listings ratio pushed up to 80 per cent. While sales have generally remained in line with long-term trends, new listings have not had the same increase that other areas have reported, preventing significant gains in inventory levels. As of August, there was 116 units in inventory, a 29 per cent gain over last year, but still 30 per cent lower than levels traditionally seen in August. Despite tighter conditions, prices have reported some monthly declines. However, year-to-date benchmark prices remained two per cent higher than last year’s levels, with gains reported across each property type.

The Calgary Real Estate July statistics report that, thanks to gains mostly occurring in the newer communities, inventory levels in July were 6,917 units, reaching levels not seen since prior to the pandemic and higher than long-term trends. While supply has improved across all property types and all districts, the largest gains are occurring in the areas where there has been new community growth.  

The additional supply has weighed on home prices in some parts of the city. The total residential benchmark price in Calgary has trended down over the past several months and is currently four per cent below last year's peak price reported in June 2024.  

"Price declines are not occurring across all property types in all locations of the city, and even where there have been declines, it has not erased all the gains made over the past several years," said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at CREB®. "The steepest price declines have occurred for apartment and row style homes, mostly in the North East and North districts, which coincides with significant gains in new supply."  

The rise in supply occurred as sales continued to slow and new listings improved. In July, there were 2,099 sales, a 12 per cent decline over last year, while new listings reached 3,911 units, an over eight per cent increase over last year. In addition to the persistent economic uncertainty due to tariffs, sales and new listings were impacted by no further reductions in lending rates and added competition from the new home market. Apartment-style homes are reporting the highest months of supply with over four months, while both detached and semi-detached homes are seeing conditions remain relatively balanced at just three months of supply.   

Airdrie

Due to declines in both row and apartment sales, July sales slowed by 14 per cent compared to last July, contributing to the year-to-date decline of 12 per cent. While sales have slowed, activity remains higher than levels reported prior to 2021. What has changed is the significant improvement in new listings, resulting in inventory gains. As of July, inventory levels rose to 543 units, the highest July reported since the peak in 2018. The higher inventory levels kept the months of supply above three months in July, placing some downward pressure on home prices. In July, the benchmark price was $532,800, nearly four per cent lower than levels reported last year at this time. However, last year's gains were exceptionally high earlier in the year, and on a year-to-date basis prices are only slightly lower than last year. 

Cochrane

Unlike other areas, Cochrane has not seen the same level of pullback in sales compared to long-term trends. While July sales were down by seven per cent, year-to-date sales are two per cent lower than last year and 23 per cent higher than long-term trends. New listings in July did reach a record high for the month, causing inventories to push to the highest level reported for the month since 2019 and causing the months of supply to rise above three months. While this likely contributed to some of the monthly decline in price, unlike other areas the July benchmark price of $590,000 was over two per cent higher than last year, and four per cent higher on a year-to-date basis.

Okotoks

This market continues to exhibit tighter market conditions than both Airdrie and Cochrane with a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 71 per cent and months of supply at just over two months. This is a significant improvement compared to the previous four years, where the months of supply in July was just over one month. In July, the benchmark price in the area was $628,500, slightly lower than last month, but higher than last year's level. Despite some monthly fluctuations, year-to-date prices are over two per cent higher than last year.

The real estate stats for June have been released by CREB®, reporting that inventory levels in June continued to rise, both over last month’s and last year’s levels. By the end of the month, inventory reached 6,941 units, returning to levels reported in 2021, or prior to the surge in population growth.

While sales have remained consistent with long-term trends despite a decline from recent months, higher levels of new listings compared to sales have contributed to the inventory gain. All property types have reported gains in inventory, but both row and apartment style homes reported inventory levels over 30 per cent higher than long-term trends, while supply for detached and semi-detached units are only slightly higher than typical levels.

“Supply has improved across rental, resale and new home markets, allowing for more choice for those considering their housing options,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at CREB®. “The additional choice combined with no further declines in lending rates, persistent uncertainty and concerns of price adjustments is keeping many potential purchasers on the sidelines. This is weighing on home prices, especially for apartment and row style homes.”

The unadjusted benchmark price was $586,200 in June, lower than last month and over three per cent lower than last year. Much of the citywide decline was driven by apartment and row style homes, which are over three per cent lower than last year. Meanwhile, detached prices have remained relatively stable and semi-detached homes are still slightly higher than last year.

The steeper price declines for apartment and row style homes are reflective of those segments shifting toward a market that favours the buyer with nearly four months of supply. Meanwhile conditions are relatively balanced for detached and semi-detached homes. Overall conditions in Calgary have changed, but not enough to erase the significant growth in prices that have occurred over the past four years. 

Airdrie

Thanks to a sharp decline in detached activity, sales in June fell to 164 units. The pullback in sales was met with 324 new listings, causing the sales-to-new listings ratio to drop to 51 per cent, the lowest ratio reported in June since 2018. The wider spread between sales and new listings drove further inventory gains and for the first time since 2020 the months of supply was above three months. The additional supply choice has weighed on resale prices, which have trended down for the second consecutive month. In June the benchmark price was $538,300, nearly three per cent lower than levels seen last year at this time.

Cochrane

Gains for detached and semi-detached sales were offset by pullbacks for row and apartment units, as June sales remained relatively unchanged over last year. The 101 sales in June were met with 171 new listings and the sales-to-new listings ratio rose to 59 per cent. This slowed the pace of inventory growth, keeping the months of supply just below three months. While conditions are more balanced than they have been, prices in the area continue to rise albeit at a slower pace. As of June, the unadjusted benchmark price was $593,700, nearly one per cent higher than last month and four per cent higher than last June.

Okotoks

While levels are better than last year, both sales and new listings trended down in June, causing the sales-to-new listings ratio to rise to 87 per cent. This prevented any further monthly inventory gains and ensured that the months of supply remained below two months in June. While conditions remain tight in Okotoks, more supply in the broader region has likely prevented stronger price growth in the Town of Okotoks. As of June, the unadjusted benchmark price was $632,800, similar to last month and nearly three per cent higher than last year.
