August Newsletter

And just like that, it’s almost the end of summer. Wow, what a summer it has been. Lots of activity in the market and as the summer draws to a close, we are still seeing record high sales compared to long term averages. All good news as we head into the fall season. With some lingering anxieties surrounding the pandemic, lots of buyers who scooped up properties this summer are hunkering down and soaking up the remaining days of summer. If you’re looking to buy or sell, it isn’t too late.  

There remains to be much optimism on the horizon, as sales and inventory levels are creating more balance in the market.

See you in September!

City of Calgary, Aug 2021⁠ With sales totally 2,319 units, July market activity was well over long-term averages. The pace of sales has eased over the past few months as have inventory levels and while overall supply is higher than July 2020, it’s mostly due to gains in apartment and row product.⁠⁠ Gains in months of supply are leading to more balance between sellers and buyers however, there is significant variation in product type, as the months of supply ranged from two months in the detached sector to nearly six months in the apartment condominium sector. ⁠⁠
