Calgary Housing Market: What You Need to Know Before You Buy

If you’re thinking about buying in Calgary this year, you’re probably wondering what home prices are doing. Calgary has stayed one of Canada’s most stable and affordable major cities. Detached homes continue to rise in value, while semi-detached and townhomes remain strong options for first-time buyers.

Right now, you’ll see low inventory, steady demand, and quick sale timelines — especially in co

mmunities like Valley Ridge, Livingston, Seton, and Tuscany. If you want to be competitive, make sure you’re pre-approved, understand recent sales, and work with a realtor who can break down neighbourhood-specific data for you.

Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or investing, the Calgary market still gives you room to build long-term equity.
