Calgary's real estate market continued to shift toward more balanced conditions in September 2026 — but not all property types are experiencing the same market.

The latest data from the Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB) shows a market where buyers have more choice than they did during the extremely tight conditions of previous years, while detached homes continue to perform relatively well compared with higher-density properties.

In September, Calgary recorded 1,650 residential sales, nearly 4% lower than September 2025. At the same time, the city's overall residential benchmark price was $566,700, almost 1% below last year's level.

But those headline numbers don't tell the whole story.

To understand Calgary's September market, you need to look at the different property types.

Calgary Real Estate Market at a Glance — September 2026

Here are some of the key numbers from the latest CREB report:

• Residential sales: 1,650

• Year-over-year sales change: Nearly -4%

• Residential benchmark price: $566,700

• Year-over-year benchmark price: Nearly -1%

• Sales-to-new-listings ratio: 49%

• Months of supply: Just under 4 months

Overall, Calgary's market is showing more supply relative to sales, which has helped move conditions away from the seller-dominated market seen in previous years.

However, the market is increasingly becoming a story of "it depends on what you're buying."

Detached Homes Continue to Show Strength

If you're looking at detached homes, the September numbers were relatively encouraging.

Calgary recorded 896 detached home sales in September, more than 4% higher than the same month last year.

Detached homes also had just over three months of supply, keeping the segment in relatively balanced territory.

The detached sales-to-new-listings ratio was 52%, suggesting that demand continues to absorb a reasonable portion of the available supply.

The benchmark price for detached homes was approximately $1 million?

Actually, this is where it's important to distinguish between Calgary's overall benchmark statistics and individual property segments. The September CREB report shows that detached prices were about 1% lower than last year, with some areas performing considerably differently from others.

The North East district experienced some of the larger price declines, while the City Centre and West districts recorded prices above last year's levels.

What does this mean?

The detached market isn't experiencing the same level of supply pressure seen in some higher-density segments.

For buyers, there is still choice — but competition can remain meaningful in areas where inventory is relatively tight.

For sellers, pricing correctly remains extremely important.

Condos Are a Very Different Story

The biggest contrast in Calgary's September market continues to be the apartment condominium segment.

Apartment condo sales improved from August, but they were still 14% lower than September 2025.

There were 343 apartment sales and 717 new listings, resulting in a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 48%.

Apartment inventory remained elevated, with just over five months of supply.

And prices continue to feel the pressure.

The September benchmark price for apartment-style condominiums was $291,400, more than 8% lower than September 2025.

CREB notes that while some of the monthly decline can be seasonal, seasonally adjusted prices continued to decline in September.

Why are condos under more pressure?

A major factor is the amount of new high-density supply entering the market.

Over the past several years, Calgary experienced significant construction activity, particularly in apartment-style housing.

That has created more competition between:

• Existing resale condos

• New condominium developments

• Rental properties

• Other housing options

With buyers having more choices, sellers in the resale condo market may have to compete more aggressively on price, condition and location.

Row Homes Are Also Seeing More Supply

The row-home segment is also experiencing greater supply pressure.

In September, the benchmark price for row properties was $412,400, nearly 6% lower than last year.

The sales-to-new-listings ratio dropped to 45%, while months of supply moved above four months for the first time this year.

Competition from newly built homes is another factor.

When buyers can compare a resale property with a brand-new home, the price difference becomes particularly important.

This can put additional pressure on sellers of older or less competitive properties.

What About Semi-Detached Homes?

Semi-detached homes remain somewhere between the detached and higher-density segments.

The September benchmark price was approximately $685,200, which was comparable to last year's level.

Months of supply moved toward four months, while the sales-to-new-listings ratio fell to 45%.

CREB notes that this represents a shift from the tighter conditions seen earlier in 2026, although it is still too early to know whether this trend will continue through the final quarter of the year.

Is Calgary a Buyer's Market or a Seller's Market?

The answer is:

It depends on the property type and location.

Calgary's overall market is moving toward more balanced conditions, but some segments are clearly more favourable to buyers.

Detached homes

More balanced

Supply remains relatively limited compared with higher-density housing, particularly in certain communities.

Semi-detached homes

Moving toward balanced

Supply has increased, but prices remain relatively stable compared with last year.

Row homes

More buyer-friendly

Higher supply and competition from new construction are giving buyers more options.

Apartment condos

Buyer-favouring conditions

Higher inventory and competition from new supply are putting greater pressure on prices.

This is why simply saying "Calgary is a buyer's market" or "Calgary is a seller's market" doesn't accurately describe what is happening.

What Does This Mean for Calgary Homebuyers?

For buyers, September's numbers provide some positive news.

Compared with the extremely competitive conditions Calgary experienced during earlier periods, buyers now generally have more choice and more time to evaluate properties, particularly in higher-density segments.

That can mean:

• More opportunities to negotiate

• More properties to compare

• Less pressure to make an immediate decision

• Greater choice in condos and row homes

But buyers shouldn't assume that every Calgary property is negotiable.

A well-priced detached home in a desirable community can still attract strong interest.

The property, neighbourhood, price and condition all matter.

What Does This Mean for Calgary Home Sellers?

Sellers need to pay close attention to pricing.

In a market with more inventory, buyers have alternatives.

If your property is priced significantly above comparable homes, buyers may simply move on to another listing.

This is particularly important for condos and row homes, where buyers may be comparing resale properties with newly built options.

A strong listing strategy can therefore make a meaningful difference.

That includes:

Pricing correctly + presenting the property well + understanding your competition.

What About Calgary Home Prices?

The overall residential benchmark price of $566,700 in September was nearly 1% lower than the same month last year.

But again, the overall number can hide important differences.

Apartment condos were down more than 8% year over year.

Row homes were down nearly 6%.

Detached prices were down approximately 1%.

That means someone looking at a detached home may have a very different experience from someone shopping for a downtown or suburban apartment condo.

The Calgary housing market isn't moving as one single market anymore.

The Big Story for Calgary Real Estate in September 2026

If I had to summarize September's Calgary real estate market in one sentence, it would be:

More balanced overall — but increasingly divided by property type.

Detached homes continue to show relatively healthy demand and more balanced supply conditions.

Meanwhile, apartment condos and row homes are experiencing greater supply and more price pressure.

For buyers, this can create opportunities.

For sellers, it makes accurate pricing and market positioning more important than ever.

And for anyone thinking about buying or selling, looking only at the headline Calgary average may not give you the full picture.

What Should You Do If You're Thinking About Buying or Selling?

Whether you're buying your first home, moving to a larger property, downsizing, investing or considering selling, the best strategy depends on your individual situation.

Before making a decision, consider:

Where is the property?

What type of property is it?

How much comparable inventory is available?

What are similar properties actually selling for?

What does your financing situation look like?

The Calgary market in September 2026 shows why local market knowledge and good financial planning matter.

If you're thinking about making a move, understanding both the real estate side and the mortgage side can help you make a more informed decision.

Final Thoughts

Calgary's September 2026 real estate market wasn't about a dramatic crash or a return to the extremely tight seller's market of previous years.

Instead, we're seeing a market continue to rebalance.

Sales were lower than last year, overall prices were slightly lower, and buyers had more supply to choose from.

But the most important takeaway is that Calgary is not one single market.

Detached homes, semi-detached properties, row homes and apartment condos are experiencing very different conditions.

That's why buyers and sellers should look beyond the headline numbers and understand what's happening in the specific segment and community they're considering.

Market information is based on September 2026 Calgary Real Estate Board statistics released October 1, 2026. Real estate and mortgage decisions should be based on your individual circumstances and current market conditions.

September 1, 2026

The Calgary real estate market has entered the final stretch of 2026 with a noticeably different market environment than what buyers and sellers experienced over the past few years.

After several years of strong demand, limited inventory and significant price growth, Calgary's housing market has moved toward more balanced conditions in 2026. Buyers have more choice in many areas, while sellers are facing a market where pricing, presentation and strategy matter more than they did during the previous seller's market.

As we enter the final quarter of the year, the big question is:

Will Calgary home prices stabilize, continue to soften, or begin to recover in Q4?

Based on the latest Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB®) data and the broader market trends, the answer will likely depend heavily on property type, location and price range.

Calgary Real Estate Market 2026: The Big Picture

The biggest story of Calgary's 2026 housing market has been the shift from a strong seller's market toward more balanced conditions.

CREB's 2026 forecast anticipated that balanced to buyer's-market conditions would persist throughout the year, depending on the type of property. The main factors behind this shift include increased housing supply, slower migration and more competition from newly built homes.

This doesn't mean the Calgary market is weak across the board.

In fact, different segments of the market are behaving very differently.

Detached and semi-detached homes have generally remained much more stable, while apartment condominiums and some row-home segments have experienced significantly more pressure.

That distinction is extremely important for anyone considering buying or selling in Calgary.

Q1 2026: The Market Started the Year in Transition

The first quarter of 2026 continued the transition that began during the second half of 2025.

Buyers entered the year with more choices than they had experienced during the tightest periods of the Calgary market. At the same time, sellers had to adjust to a market where homes could no longer rely on extremely low inventory to generate multiple offers.

CREB's 2026 outlook pointed to elevated supply across the new-home, resale and rental markets, combined with more typical levels of demand. This was expected to prolong the time required to absorb available resale inventory.

What did this mean for buyers?

Buyers generally had:

• More properties to choose from

• More negotiating room on certain properties

• Less pressure to make immediate decisions

• More opportunities to compare resale homes with new construction

• Better opportunities in higher-density housing segments

What did this mean for sellers?

Sellers needed to be more strategic.

A home that was overpriced could sit on the market longer, while well-priced and well-presented properties could still attract strong buyer interest.

The market was no longer simply about “put it on the market and wait for an offer.”

Pricing correctly from day one became increasingly important.

Q2 2026: Supply Became an Increasingly Important Story

As Calgary moved into the spring and early summer market, inventory and supply became even more important.

By May, Calgary's inventory had reached approximately 6,752 units. While this was similar to the previous year, inventory was about 11% above the longer-term average, largely because of increased supply in apartment and row-style homes. Detached inventory, however, remained tighter.

This created a market with two very different stories.

Detached homes remained relatively resilient

Detached homes continued to benefit from comparatively stronger demand and lower supply.

Condos faced greater competition

Apartment condominiums were dealing with significantly more supply.

CREB noted that increased rental and new-home supply, combined with softer demand, was putting pressure on resale apartment condominiums.

For buyers, this created opportunities.

For condo sellers, it meant that pricing and positioning became increasingly important.

Q3 2026: Calgary Market Shows More Signs of Balance

As we entered the third quarter, the market continued to cool from the stronger conditions seen in previous years.

In July 2026, Calgary recorded 1,902 sales, down approximately 9% from July 2025. New listings were also lower, at approximately 3,324, down 15% year-over-year.

The fact that both sales and new listings declined is important.

This is not simply a story of buyers disappearing.

Some sellers are also choosing not to list, which is helping prevent inventory from rising dramatically in some segments.

Calgary benchmark price

In July, Calgary's total residential benchmark price was approximately $569,200, about 2% lower than the previous year.

However, the overall number doesn't tell the entire story.

Property Type Matters More Than Ever

One of the biggest lessons from Calgary's 2026 real estate market is that there is no single Calgary housing market.

There are several different markets operating at the same time.

Detached Homes

Detached homes have been relatively resilient.

In July, the benchmark price for detached homes was approximately $743,900, down nearly 2% from the previous year. Months of supply were close to three months, which CREB characterized as generally balanced.

Some communities are performing significantly better than others.

In Calgary's West District and City Centre, for example, prices have been more resilient, while some northern areas have experienced greater price adjustments.

For detached-home sellers, location and pricing strategy remain critical.

Semi-Detached Homes

The semi-detached segment has also remained relatively stable.

By July, the benchmark price was approximately $691,000, with year-to-date sales remaining relatively consistent with 2025. Months of supply remained below three months for most of the year.

This segment continues to benefit from buyers looking for an alternative to detached homes while remaining more affordable than many detached properties.

Row Homes and Townhouses

Row housing has experienced more pressure.

Year-to-date sales were down approximately 15% by July, while the benchmark price was around $418,500, approximately 6% below the previous year. Months of supply had moved close to four months.

Competition from new construction is particularly important in this segment.

Buyers can compare an existing resale property against a brand-new home, sometimes with builder incentives and modern finishes.

That makes it especially important for sellers of older townhomes and row homes to price competitively.

Apartment Condos: The Most Challenged Segment

If there is one segment that has experienced the greatest pressure in Calgary's 2026 market, it is the apartment condominium market.

By July, Calgary's apartment benchmark price had fallen to approximately $297,600, more than 8% below the previous year and approximately 13% below the peak reported in 2024.

There were approximately 1,999 apartment units available in the resale market, and sales were down nearly 26% year-to-date.

The result has been a buyer's market in many areas of the apartment segment.

For condo buyers, this can create opportunities to negotiate.

For condo owners considering selling, it reinforces the importance of realistic pricing, strong presentation and understanding the competition before listing.

What About Calgary's Overall Inventory?

One of the most interesting developments in 2026 is that inventory has not simply continued climbing indefinitely.

According to CREB's latest available statistics, Calgary had approximately 6,842 active listings in August 2026, compared with 6,901 in August 2025.

At the same time, August sales were approximately 1,534, compared with 1,803 a year earlier.

This means the market is experiencing lower activity on both sides.

That is an important distinction.

A lower number of sales doesn't automatically mean prices will fall dramatically.

If sellers also reduce the number of new listings, supply can remain relatively controlled.

What Should We Expect in Calgary's Real Estate Market in Q4 2026?

The fourth quarter will likely be a market of selective opportunities rather than dramatic market-wide movements.

Here are the trends I will be watching closely.

1. Buyers Will Have More Negotiating Power in Some Segments

Buyers looking at condos, townhomes and properties with longer days on market may have more negotiating leverage.

Sellers who have been sitting on the market for several weeks without an offer may become more willing to negotiate on price or terms.

However, this won't necessarily apply to every detached home.

Well-priced properties in desirable Calgary communities can still attract strong interest.

2. Detached Homes Could Remain More Stable

Detached inventory remains relatively tighter compared with higher-density housing.

That could help support prices in desirable communities, particularly where there is limited resale inventory and strong buyer demand.

I would expect more stability rather than a major price correction in many detached-home segments during Q4.

But again, Calgary is highly neighbourhood-specific.

3. Condos Could Continue to Face Pressure

The apartment condominium market is likely to remain one of the most challenging segments during the final quarter.

The large amount of new supply, competition from rental properties and slower demand for some higher-density homes could continue putting pressure on resale condo prices. CREB has also noted that more than 17,000 apartment-style units were under construction, adding to the supply challenge.

For buyers, this could mean opportunities to negotiate.

For sellers, waiting for the market to “come back” may not always be the best strategy.

The right decision depends on the property's location, condition, price point and the seller's timeline.

Will Calgary Home Prices Rise or Fall in Q4?

My expectation is that Calgary's overall market will remain relatively balanced in Q4, with price performance varying considerably by property type and location.

I would not expect a repeat of the rapid price growth Calgary experienced during the strongest seller's-market periods.

At the same time, I would also be cautious about predicting a major citywide crash.

The market fundamentals are much more nuanced.

Detached and semi-detached homes: likely to remain relatively stable.

Row homes/townhouses: continued competition and selective price pressure.

Apartment condos: greater buyer leverage and continued price pressure where supply remains elevated.

Luxury/high-end properties: likely to depend heavily on pricing and buyer demand.

What Does This Mean for Calgary Buyers?

For buyers, Q4 2026 could be an interesting time to enter the market.

You may have more time to compare properties and negotiate than you would have had during a strong seller's market.

However, the goal shouldn't simply be to find the property with the biggest price reduction.

Instead, buyers should look at:

• Location

• Future resale potential

• Property condition

• Condo fees and financial health of the corporation

• New construction competition

• Comparable sales

• Financing costs

• Long-term affordability

A good deal isn't necessarily the cheapest house. It's the right property at the right price.

What Does This Mean for Calgary Sellers?

For sellers, the message is equally clear:

Strategy matters more in a balanced market.

Pricing your home too high can result in longer days on market, repeated price reductions and potentially selling for less than you could have achieved with the right strategy from the beginning.

Before listing, sellers should understand:

1. What similar homes are currently listed for

2. What comparable homes have actually sold for

3. How much competition is coming from new construction

4. How long competing properties have been on the market

5. What buyers are currently looking for

6. How the property should be prepared and marketed

The objective shouldn't be to simply become another listing on MLS.

The objective should be to position the property correctly from day one.

The Calgary Real Estate Market Is Becoming More Balanced — But Not Equal

If there is one takeaway from the first three quarters of 2026, it is this:

Don't judge Calgary's real estate market by one headline number.

The overall benchmark price may be down approximately 2% year-over-year, but detached homes, semi-detached homes, row homes and apartment condos are experiencing very different market conditions.

The same is true geographically.

A neighbourhood with limited inventory can behave very differently from a community with several competing new developments.

This is why buyers and sellers need property-specific and neighbourhood-specific advice, rather than relying only on citywide statistics.

Final Thoughts: What to Watch in Q4 2026

As Calgary enters the final quarter of 2026, I expect the market to remain more balanced than what we experienced during the rapid-growth years.

The biggest factors to watch will be:

• Mortgage rates and borrowing costs

• Calgary's employment and economic conditions

• Migration trends

• New-home construction

• Resale inventory

• Consumer confidence

• Apartment and rental supply

• Buyer demand heading into 2027

The Calgary market isn't simply “hot” or “cold.”

It is becoming increasingly selective.

For buyers, that can create opportunities.

For sellers, it means preparation, pricing and marketing matter more than ever.

And for anyone considering making a move before the end of 2026, the most important question isn't necessarily:

“Where is the Calgary market going?”

It is:

“How does the current market affect my specific property, neighbourhood, price range and timeline?”

That is where professional, local market analysis can make a meaningful difference.

Calgary Real Estate Market Q4 2026: Bottom Line

Buyers: More choice and negotiating opportunities in several segments.

Sellers: Strong properties can still sell, but pricing and presentation are critical.

Detached homeowners: Generally more stable conditions compared with higher-density housing.

Condo owners: Greater competition and price pressure may continue.

Investors: Opportunities may exist, but property selection and cash-flow analysis are increasingly important.

Overall Calgary market: Expect a more balanced and selective market rather than a return to the extreme seller's-market conditions of previous years.

If you're thinking about buying or selling a home in Calgary before the end of 2026, understanding the numbers for your specific community and property type is more important than simply following the citywide average.

Buying your first home in Calgary is exciting—but it can also be overwhelming if you don’t have the right guidance. Many first-time buyers make avoidable mistakes that can cost time, money, and stress.

Here are the top 5 mistakes to watch out for—and how to avoid them.

❌ 1. Not Getting Pre-Approved Before House Hunting

One of the biggest mistakes is starting your home search without knowing your budget.

👉 Why it’s a problem:

• You may fall in love with a home you can’t afford

• Sellers won’t take your offer seriously

✔️ Solution:
Get pre-approved first so you know your exact buying power and can act quickly when the right home comes up.

❌ 2. Ignoring Additional Costs

Many buyers focus only on the purchase price—but there are other expenses involved.

👉 Hidden costs include:

• Closing costs

• Property taxes

• Home insurance

• Maintenance and repairs

✔️ Solution:
Budget for an extra 1.5%–4% of the purchase price to cover these costs.

❌ 3. Skipping the Home Inspection

In a competitive market, some buyers are tempted to skip inspections to win a deal.

👉 Why this is risky:

• You might miss costly issues

• Repairs can add up quickly after possession

✔️ Solution:
Always include a home inspection condition—it protects your investment.

❌ 4. Letting Emotions Drive Decisions

Buying a home is emotional—but letting feelings take over can lead to overpaying or rushing decisions.

👉 Common mistakes:

• Overbidding in a bidding war

• Ignoring red flags

• Choosing the wrong location

✔️ Solution:
Stay focused on your budget, needs, and long-term goals.

❌ 5. Not Working With the Right Realtor

Trying to navigate the market alone can cost you opportunities and money.

👉 Without the right guidance:

• You may overpay

• Miss better properties

• Struggle with negotiations

✔️ Solution:
Work with an experienced local expert who understands the Calgary market and can guide you every step of the way.

🏡 Bonus Tip: Don’t Wait for the “Perfect” Time

Many buyers try to time the market—but the truth is:

👉 The best time to buy is when you’re financially ready

Calgary still offers strong value compared to other major Canadian cities, making it a great place for first-time buyers to enter the market.
