August brought notable shifts to Calgary’s real estate landscape. Home sales dropped 16.4%, with 1,660 properties changing hands. The benchmark price edged down 1.1% to $569,800 year-over-year. Within the details: apartment prices fell 8.2%, row homes dipped 5.4%, detached homes were down 1.1%, while semi-detached properties saw a slight uptick of 1%. Both new listings and inventory also declined, tightening choices for buyers and sellers alike.
