Calgary Housing Market 2025 — A Season of Shift, Stability, and Strategy

The Fall 2025 season has ushered in one of the most interesting transitions the Calgary housing market has experienced in years. After two straight years of intense seller dominance—multiple offers, bidding wars, homes selling in days—the market is showing signs of balance.

More homes are coming onto the market. Buyers have more breathing room. Sellers need to price more strategically. And all of this is happening while Calgary continues to attract newcomers from across Canada.

So what exactly changed?

Understanding the Rise in Calgary Housing Inventory

For months now, industry professionals (myself included!) have been predicting a shift. And here it is.

What’s Driving the Rise in Inventory?

Several key factors have contributed to the noticeable rise in Calgary housing inventory:

• Increased new listings: Many homeowners who hesitated over the past two years are finally ready to list. 
• Slower sales pace: Homes are still selling—but they’re taking a little longer, which allows inventory to accumulate. 
• Developers upping production: Especially in high-demand suburban communities like Livingston, Alpine Park, and Rangeview. 
• Slight cooling of out-of-province migration: Still strong, but not at the record-breaking levels we saw in 2023–2024. 

Calgary’s inventory didn’t just inch up—it took a healthy step forward, giving buyers something they haven’t had in a while: options.

Welcome to the Calgary Buyer’s Market Fall 2025—Or Are We There Yet?

Now, I know what you’re thinking:

“Jai… are we officially in a buyer’s market?”

Well, not quite—but we’re definitely inching in that direction.

Signs That Calgary Is Entering a More Buyer-Friendly Market

Here’s what we’re seeing across the city:

• More homes are staying on the market longer. 
• Price reductions are becoming more common. 
• Buyers are negotiating conditions again (Yes! You heard that right—conditions are back). 
• Multiple offers are less frequent, especially in higher price ranges. 

For anyone keeping an eye on the Calgary buyer’s market fall 2025, these are strong early signals. We are still technically in a “balanced” market overall, but this balance leans slightly in favour of buyers for the first time in years.

Calgary Home Sales Trends — What’s Selling, What’s Not, and Why

To understand where the market is heading, we need to look at what’s actually happening with sales.

Detached Homes — Still Popular, but No Longer a Frenzy

Detached homes—especially under the $800K mark—remain the strongest segment, but:

• Showings have slowed slightly. 
• Bidding wars are less common. 
• Price sensitivity is rising. 

Calgarians love their space. Backyard barbecues, home gyms, dog-friendly yards—if you know, you know. But the market is no longer rewarding overpriced listings.

Semi-Detached and Townhomes — A Quiet Surprise

This segment is performing better than expected, driven by:

• First-time buyers squeezed by detached home prices. 
• Downsizers looking for manageable living. 
• Investors noticing strong rental potential. 

Neighbourhoods like Cranston, Carrington, Panorama Hills, and Silverado continue to attract families and professionals alike.

Condos — The Rising Underdog

Yes, condos are having a moment again. After years of soft demand, Fall 2025 condo sales show a noticeable uptick thanks to:

• Affordability 
• Downtown revitalization efforts 
• Increased interest from young professionals 
• Investors buying into the rental market boom 

If you love walkability, views of the Bow River, and having every coffee shop imaginable at arm’s reach, condo living in Calgary is becoming very appealing again.

Why Rising Inventory Is Good News for Buyers in Fall 2025

Let’s be real. The last two years were a bit chaotic for buyers.

Homes selling before they even hit the market.
People offering way over asking just to stand a chance.
And stress—lots of stress.

But this fall? Finally, some relief.

Here’s what rising inventory means for buyers:

• More choices
  No more settling for a home that “kind of works.” Buyers can now afford to be selective. 
• More negotiation power
  Whether it’s price, possession date, or conditions—you have leverage again. 
• Less rushed decision-making
  Fall 2025 brings more time to think, compare, research, and feel confident. 
• Better deals in certain segments
  Especially condos and homes sitting longer than average.

What Sellers Need to Know About the Calgary Housing Market 2025

If you’re a homeowner thinking of selling, here’s my honest take (from one Calgarian to another):

You can still get a great price for your home—if you strategize.

The days of “list it and wait for the bidding wars to roll in” are behind us. But that doesn’t mean you can’t achieve top dollar.

Key Selling Tips for Fall 2025

• Price realistically
  Overpricing is the fastest way to scare buyers off. Trust the numbers, not the neighbour’s guess. 
• Stage your home
  Even simple touches—fresh paint, decluttered rooms, warm lighting—go a long way. 
• Invest in professional marketing
  Photography, virtual tours, strong online listings—these matter more than ever with higher inventory. 
• Stay open to negotiations
  Flexibility can attract more serious buyers.
