Conditions Remain Relatively Balanced As We Head Into The Winter Months

Calgary, Alberta, Dec. 1, 2025 – 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. 

Detached

Detached sales in November were 823 units, just slightly lower than last year’s level, and relatively consistent with activity reported for November. The monthly reduction in new listings helped push down inventory levels compared to last month, but inventory remained well above the lower levels reported last year and are now relatively consistent with long-term trends. Overall, the months of supply remained around three months, reflecting a relatively balanced condition. Despite this we did see unadjusted prices trend down over last month, mostly reflecting seasonal patterns. As of November, the unadjusted detached benchmark price was $733,000, down by nearly two per cent compared to last November. However, when considering the year-to-date figures, prices are still one per cent higher than last year. Most of the downward price adjustments have occurred in the North East, North and East districts as competition from new homes and additional supply choice in other parts of the city are more heavily weighing on those districts.   

Semi-Detached

Sales in November were comparable to levels reported last year and still well above long-term trends, but with new listings also higher than typical levels for this time of year, inventories rose to the highest November level seen over the past five years. While conditions have been generally tighter for this property type, over the past three months we have seen the months of supply remain above three months, resulting in more balanced conditions. While the unadjusted benchmark price of $671,700 did ease over last month, it remained stable compared to last year. Year-to-date price growth has been the strongest in this sector at nearly three per cent, with the largest gains occurring in the City Centre at four per cent, partially offsetting the one per cent pullback in the North district. 

Row

November sales eased to 257, however, last year was a record high for the month and current sales remain above long-term trends. Where there continues to be more notable shifts is in supply. New listings remained comparable to last year and inventories, while reporting the typical seasonal decline, were at November levels not seen since 2018. The additional supply has caused the months of supply to remain slightly elevated, especially over the past three months. This has been placing some downward pressure on prices. In November, the unadjusted benchmark price was $424,400, down over last month and over six per cent lower than last year. While some of the monthly decline is seasonal, more persistent price declines have caused the year-to-date price to fall by nearly two per cent. 

Apartment Condominium

This sector has struggled the most with excess supply. November sales dropped to levels consistent with long-term trends, but new listings remained elevated and November inventory levels hit a record high for the month. The months of supply edged near six months and has been sitting above four months since the summer. This has resulted in relatively persistent price adjustments throughout the second half of the year and as of November the unadjusted benchmark price was $309,300, seven per cent lower than last year at this time. Year-to-date the decline was just over two per cent, with the largest decline occurring in the North East district at nearly five per cent. The only district to see prices remain flat was the West district.

 


REGIONAL MARKET FACTS


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.

October Real Estate Market Update

Calgary, Alberta, Nov. 3, 2025 – 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. 

Detached

October sales reached 1,012 units, an improvement over last month, but still five per cent lower than last year’s levels. At the same time there were 1,593 new listings that came onto the market, causing the sales-to-new-listings ratio to rise to 64 per cent and inventories to trend down over last month to 2,913. Inventory levels remain slightly higher than long-term trends for the month, but with just under three months of supply, conditions remain relatively balanced and far better than conditions reported during the 2015 to 2019 period.

Despite relatively balanced conditions, there are pockets of the market that are experiencing buyer’s market conditions, which is impacting prices. Citywide detached benchmark prices eased to $744,400 in October, one per cent lower than last year. However, price adjustments ranged from a year-over-year gain of nearly two per cent in the City Centre to a decline of over five per cent in the North East district. Despite recent adjustments, year-to-date prices remain over one per cent higher than last year.  

Semi-Detached

Sales improved over last month while new listings slowed, causing the sales-to-new-listing ratio to rise to 57 per cent, which is slightly lower than typical levels for this time of year, but high enough to prevent any significant change in inventory levels compared to last month. With 186 sales and 613 units in inventory, the months of supply was over three months, higher than last year’s extremely low levels, but lower than last month.

More inventory choice has weighed on prices over the past several months. However, with an October benchmark price of $683,100, prices remain nearly one per cent higher than last year and on a year-to-date basis are over three per cent higher than last year. 

Row

With 275 sales in October, year-to-date row sales totaled 3,412 units, a 17 per cent decline over last year. While row sales remain well above long-term trends, new listings have been on the rise and reached record highs so far this year. As of October, there were 1,054 units in inventory, the highest ever reported for the month and nearly 32 per cent higher than long-term averages. This also caused the months of supply to remain around four months.

The additional supply choice has weighed on prices. The October benchmark price was $431,200, over one per cent lower than last month and nearly six per cent lower than prices reported last year at this time. The steady slide in row prices have caused year-to-date prices to drop by one-and-a-half per cent. Price adjustments did vary across the city with the largest year-to-date declines occurring in the North East and North districts. 


Apartment Condominium

The pullback in new listings relative to sales this month did help prevent further gains in inventory levels. However, with 1,891 units in inventory and 412 sales, the months of supply remained elevated at nearly five months. Apartment condominiums have been experiencing buyer’s market conditions for nearly 6 months, placing downward pressure on prices. As of October, the benchmark price was $318,200, down over one per cent compared to last month, and nearly seven per cent lower than last October.

On a year-to-date basis, prices are nearly two per cent lower than last year’s levels. The largest year-to-date price declines occurred in the North East and South East districts at four per cent, as those districts are either reporting the highest months of supply on the resale market or are facing significant competition from the new home market.

 


REGIONAL MARKET FACTS


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.

Interest Rate Drops To 2.25%

*Article courtesy of the Bank of Canada

The Bank of Canada today reduced its target for the overnight rate by 25 basis points to 2.25%, with the Bank Rate at 2.5% and the deposit rate at 2.20%.

With the effects of US trade actions on economic growth and inflation somewhat clearer, the Bank has returned to its usual practice of providing a projection for the global and Canadian economies in this Monetary Policy Report (MPR). Because US trade policy remains unpredictable and uncertainty is still higher than normal, this projection is subject to a wider-than-usual range of risks.

While the global economy has been resilient to the historic rise in US tariffs, the impact is becoming more evident. Trade relationships are being reconfigured and ongoing trade tensions are dampening investment in many countries. In the MPR projection, the global economy slows from about 3¼% in 2025 to about 3% in 2026 and 2027.

In the United States, economic activity has been strong, supported by the boom in AI investment. At the same time, employment growth has slowed and tariffs have started to push up consumer prices. Growth in the euro area is decelerating due to weaker exports and slowing domestic demand. In China, lower exports to the United States have been offset by higher exports to other countries, but business investment has weakened.  Global financial conditions have eased further since July and oil prices have been fairly stable. The Canadian dollar has depreciated slightly against the US dollar.

Canada’s economy contracted by 1.6% in the second quarter, reflecting a drop in exports and weak business investment amid heightened uncertainty. Meanwhile, household spending grew at a healthy pace. US trade actions and related uncertainty are having severe effects on targeted sectors including autos, steel, aluminum, and lumber. As a result, GDP growth is expected to be weak in the second half of the year. Growth will get some support from rising consumer and government spending and residential investment, and then pick up gradually as exports and business investment begin to recover.

Canada’s labour market remains soft. Employment gains in September followed two months of sizeable losses. Job losses continue to build in trade-sensitive sectors and hiring has been weak across the economy. The unemployment rate remained at 7.1% in September and wage growth has slowed. Slower population growth means fewer new jobs are needed to keep the employment rate steady.

The Bank projects GDP will grow by 1.2% in 2025, 1.1% in 2026 and 1.6% in 2027. On a quarterly basis, growth strengthens in 2026 after a weak second half of this year. Excess capacity in the economy is expected to persist and be taken up gradually.

CPI inflation was 2.4% in September, slightly higher than the Bank had anticipated. Inflation excluding taxes was 2.9%. The Bank’s preferred measures of core inflation have been sticky around 3%. Expanding the range of indicators to include alternative measures of core inflation and the distribution of price changes among CPI components suggests underlying inflation remains around 2½%. The Bank expects inflationary pressures to ease in the months ahead and CPI inflation to remain near 2% over the projection horizon.

With ongoing weakness in the economy and inflation expected to remain close to the 2% target, Governing Council decided to cut the policy rate by 25 basis points. If inflation and economic activity evolve broadly in line with the October projection, Governing Council sees the current policy rate at about the right level to keep inflation close to 2% while helping the economy through this period of structural adjustment. If the outlook changes, we are prepared to respond. Governing Council will be assessing incoming data carefully relative to the Bank’s forecast.

The Canadian economy faces a difficult transition. The structural damage caused by the trade conflict reduces the capacity of the economy and adds costs. This limits the role that monetary policy can play to boost demand while maintaining low inflation. The Bank is focused on ensuring that Canadians continue to have confidence in price stability through this period of global upheaval.

 Information note

The next scheduled date for announcing the overnight rate target is December 10, 2025. The Bank’s next MPR will be released on January 28, 2026.

Countertops: Refinish or Replace?

Countertops are an important focal point in any kitchen, especially when preparing your home for sale. You may be indecisive on whether to refinish or replace them. Generally, if the wear is limited to minor scratches or stains, refinishing may be the smarter choice. It’s typically more affordable, faster, and less disruptive than a full replacement.

Look at similar properties in your neighbourhood to see how your countertop compares, and if it stands out in a negative way, it might be worth making a change. If you replace your countertop, will it complement the space, or will the rest of the kitchen seem outdated? Would refinishing the countertop, instead of replacing it, help it fit better into the overall aesthetic of your kitchen? If you decide to replace it, opt for materials and designs that reflect current trends to appeal to the widest range of buyers possible.

Also, consider your market. If you live in a desirable neighbourhood where homes typically sell easily, what you do with your countertops is unlikely to be a deciding factor, but if selling is more challenging in your market, and your budget allows, you may want to consider refinishing or replacing them.
