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 May 2026, which you can read in full by clicking here:
- "In line with seasonal trends, inventory has risen from the start of the year, reaching 6,752 units in May" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
- "Calgary sales in May were 2,162 units, 16 per cent lower than last year’s levels and similar to sales reported in April" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
- "The unadjusted total residential benchmark price in May was $570,500, up over April’s levels and the $554,400 reported in January, but still three per cent lower than last May. Most of the unadjusted monthly gain was driven by detached homes, which rose from $724,000 in January to $747,800 in May" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
- Calgary Real Estate Board Chief Economist Ann-Marie Lurie notes, "The shift in supply is being felt in the market. More supply choice in the new and rental markets has created a more competitive environment for potential buyers. At the same time, concerns over rising cost of living and slower migration are also weighing on consumers. While this has caused the overall resale market to shift to a balanced state, the supply pressure is having a more prevalent impact for apartment-style units, where conditions are favouring the buyer. This is also impacting price movements, with apartment prices continuing to trend down and other property types reporting a seasonal lift over the winter months" (The Calgary Real Estate Board).
