Is Calgary currently a buyer's or seller's market?
The RS descriptive signal for Calgary is between thresholds for September 2026, with a 49.19% sales-to-new-listings ratio and 3.93 months of supply. RS uses demand-led for a ratio of at least 70% with less than three months of supply; supply-led for a ratio below 40% or at least five months of supply. Other results fall between thresholds. These are descriptive rules, not CREB classifications or forecasts.
How current are the Calgary real estate statistics?
The latest complete aggregate reporting period is September 2026, published 2026-10-01. Current property search is a separate live CREA DDF listing dataset and may update more frequently.
What is the difference between market statistics and live listings?
Market statistics summarize completed activity for a defined reporting period. Live CREA DDF listings show properties currently supplied through the authorized feed. RealStats labels these datasets separately so active listings are not mistaken for completed sales.
READ THIS BEFORE USING THE NUMBERS
Transparent definitions,
not false precision.
Sold price
Monthly median residential close price. A change may reflect market movement and a different mix of homes sold.
Inventory
Active residential listings at the reporting period. It is not the same as new listings or months of supply.
Small-market volatility
Okotoks, Cochrane and Chestermere can move sharply month to month because fewer sales make the median more composition-sensitive.
Live vs. historical
Current property search uses CREA DDF listing content. Historical aggregate market statistics are stored and labelled separately.
