2026 Calgary Market: What Buyers & Sellers Need to Know!

Segment Differences

Highlight how different home types (detached, condos, row homes) are performing — for example, condos may see flatter or softer price movement, while desirable single-family homes continue to attract steady demand.

What This Means for Readers:

Buyers: More choices = better negotiating position in some price bands.
Sellers: Need strong pricing strategies and staging to stand out in a market with growing inventory.

Inventory & Market Balance

Calgary’s housing inventory has risen significantly (particularly condos and townhomes), giving buyers more negotiating power and easing price pressures in certain segments.

Price Expectations

Experts and local forecasts suggest that average sale prices in Calgary are expected to stay relatively steady going into 2026, while sales activity may remain balanced rather than strongly favoring sellers.

New Year's Resolutions for your Home

Below is the start of a list of where to begin with keeping up with your home for the new year! Also, be sure to use my monthly home maintenance tips!

1. DECLUTTERING YOUR HOME - Details To keep yourself on track, get started now and schedule a time to spend organizing, sorting through piles of clothes and papers, and removing unwanted items from your home.
2. PLANNING A ROOM RENOVATION - If you've been planning on any larger projects in your home, this is the perfect time to start planning and executing. Make sure to allocate plenty of time and proper budgeting, for contractors.
3. PUTTING HOLIDAY DECORATIONS AWAY EARLY - It's not necessarily the "when" of putting the holiday decorations away, it's more about the how. Have a specific space and storage bins that make it easy to both put away and bring out so it never becomes a mountain of a task.
4. TACKLING LITTLE PROJECTS - You might not have thought to add that ever-growing list of small home improvement projects to your New Year’s resolutions, but with the right plan, you can tackle them all at once. Gather everything you need, set aside a day, and get it done!
5. ORGANIZING A SPECIFIC SPACE - Look at what you're keeping in the room, establish a plan for what will stay there, then measure and research storage options for the best system to keep those items organized and in place.
