Every month the Calgary Real Estate Board releases a report detailing what has been happening in the real estate market. These reports provide valuable information to sellers, buyers, and investors alike. Real estate requires strategic decision making, so staying informed is crucial to ensure you are making the best moves possible.
Here are the highlights from The The Calgary Real Estate Board's market report for March 2026, which you can read in full by clicking here:
- "Inventory remained well above the 10-year average for both row and apartment-style units and well below trend for detached homes" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
- "There were 1,881 sales in March, up from the previous month, but still 13 per cent lower than levels reported last year and below long-term trends for March" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
- "The total unadjusted benchmark price in the city was $565,600, up nearly one per cent compared to February" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
- Calgary Real Estate Board Chief Economist Ann-Marie Lurie notes, "when considering total residential housing statistics, conditions appear to be relatively balanced as sales, new listings, inventories and prices all trended up over the previous month as we start to move into the spring market. However, when we look deeper, we are seeing a market that ranges from tighter conditions for detached homes to the apartment sector, where conditions tend to favour the buyer. As expected, this is supporting upward momentum in detached prices and downward pressure in the apartment condominium sector" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
