1 Overall Market
A sharp monthly pullback still leaves annual price growth at 2.14%

The benchmark price is $572,900, down 5.92% month over month but up 2.14% year over year. The monthly drop is the largest single month move in this data set, and it is worth watching alongside next month’s numbers to confirm the trend rather than reacting to one data point.

Common Questions
Is Calgary currently a buyer’s market or a seller’s market?
Calgary is moving further toward buyer-favourable conditions as of July 2026. Inventory is up 25% and months of supply has risen 43%, while sales are down 16%. The overall benchmark price is still up 2.14% year over year, but every individual segment is flat or negative annually, which points to a market that is cooling faster than the headline number suggests.
What is the benchmark price in Calgary right now?
The overall benchmark price in Calgary is $572,900 as of July 2026, down 5.92% month over month but up 2.14% year over year. By segment: detached homes benchmark at $686,200, apartments at $309,900, and attached homes at $447,200.
Which Calgary property type is under the most pressure right now?
Attached homes carry the largest supply overhang, with months of supply up 61% and the benchmark price down 1.53% year over year, the steepest annual decline of the three segments. Apartments have the weakest sales activity, down 29% from a year ago. Detached is the most resilient, with annual prices essentially flat at negative 0.04%.
Why is the overall benchmark price up when every segment is down?
The overall benchmark is a separate composite calculation, not a simple average of the three segment benchmarks. When the mix of homes selling shifts toward higher priced properties or specific sub-areas within a segment, the composite can move differently than any individual segment. This is a normal feature of benchmark pricing and worth watching over several months rather than reading into a single data point.
Is now a good time to sell in Calgary?
Detached sellers remain in the strongest position, with values essentially flat over the past year despite softer demand. Apartment and attached sellers are competing in segments with rising inventory and negative annual price trends, and attached sellers face the deepest supply overhang in the city. Presentation and pricing accuracy matter more in every segment than they did a year ago.
