What’s Happening City-Wide

• Calgary recorded 2,197 residential sales in June, down from 2,284 in May and approximately 4% lower than the same month last year.
• New listings eased to 3,899, while total inventory remained elevated at 6,799 homes.
• The city had approximately 3.09 months of supply, reflecting more balanced to slightly buyer-leaning conditions overall.
• Calgary’s total residential benchmark price was $572,500, down approximately 2% from May and about 2% below June 2025.

For buyers, the increase in available inventory means more time to compare properties, negotiate terms and avoid rushing into a decision. For sellers, current comparable sales, professional presentation and realistic pricing now play a larger role in achieving a successful result.

Detached And Semi-Detached Homes Remain Resilient

• Detached home sales reached 1,202 in June, with inventory sitting at 2,987 listings and months of supply at approximately 2.49.
• The detached benchmark price was $750,500, slightly higher than May but approximately 1.4% below June 2025.
• Semi-detached sales reached 234, while inventory increased to 584 homes and months of supply remained close to 2.5.
• The semi-detached benchmark price was $694,600, remaining relatively stable from the previous month and only slightly below last year.

Detached and semi-detached homes remain the most competitive parts of Calgary’s market, particularly in established communities, desirable school districts and well-connected neighbourhoods. Buyers may still face competition for move-in-ready homes, but they generally have more negotiating flexibility than they did during the lowest-inventory years.

Townhomes And Condos Offer More Choice

Row and townhome sales reached 338 in June, while inventory remained elevated at 1,152 listings. With approximately 3.41 months of supply, buyers have more options than they do in the detached and semi-detached segments.

The row home benchmark price was $424,100, approximately 5.6% lower than June 2025. This may create opportunities for buyers looking for more space than an apartment without moving into detached-home pricing.

Apartment condominiums experienced the clearest shift toward buyers. Sales fell to 423, inventory reached 2,076 units and months of supply increased to approximately 4.91.

The apartment benchmark price was $299,000, nearly 9% below June 2025. Buyers can be more selective about building quality, condominium fees, location and resale potential, while sellers need to position their units carefully against competing listings and newer developments.

What This Means If You’re Buying Or Selling With Rob & Kim

• Detached and semi-detached buyers should still be prepared to act decisively on well-priced homes in strong locations, while using the increase in inventory to negotiate terms, possession dates and minor price adjustments.
• Townhome buyers may find an attractive middle ground between apartment affordability and detached-home space, particularly as prices remain below last year’s levels.
• Condo buyers have more leverage and selection, but should carefully review condominium documents, fees, building condition and future resale considerations.
• Sellers across every property type need pricing based on current community-level comparables rather than broader city-wide averages.
• Townhome and condo sellers should expect buyers to compare their property closely against similar listings, new construction and recent sales.

Rob & Kim can help buyers and sellers understand how conditions differ by property type, community and price range, allowing each decision to be based on what is happening in the specific part of the Calgary market that matters most.
