Calgary Housing Market Statistics – December 2025

As we close out 2025, the Calgary housing market continues its shift toward more balanced conditions. After several years of strong seller-driven activity, increased inventory and slower sales have created a market that now rewards strategy, pricing, and preparation more than urgency.

December’s housing statistics clearly reflect this transition.

December 2025 Calgary Housing Snapshot

In December 2025, the overall benchmark price in Calgary was $554,700, reflecting a year-over-year adjustment as supply levels increased across the city.

Sales activity slowed compared to last year, while new listings remained steady. This combination pushed inventory higher and resulted in homes taking longer to sell.

Key market highlights include:

• Sales easing compared to December 2024

• Inventory rising significantly year-over-year

• Months of supply increasing, signalling improved balance

• Average days on market trending higher

These indicators point to a market that is no longer moving at the pace we saw in previous years.

What Increased Inventory Means for the Market

One of the most notable changes in December was the rise in available inventory. More homes on the market means buyers have greater choice, while sellers are facing more competition.

As inventory builds:

• Buyers feel less pressure to rush decisions

• Sellers must price more accurately

• Presentation and marketing become critical

This environment encourages fairer negotiations and more thoughtful transactions.

What This Market Means for Buyers

For buyers, December’s data signals opportunity.

With homes taking longer to sell and supply improving, buyers can:

• Take more time to compare properties

• Negotiate more confidently in certain price ranges

• Focus on value rather than speed

That said, desirable homes in strong locations continue to attract interest. Having access to neighbourhood-specific data remains essential when determining where true opportunities exist.

What This Market Means for Sellers

For sellers, the December 2025 market reinforces the importance of pricing strategy.

Homes that are priced correctly and presented well are still selling. However, properties that are priced aggressively or lack strong marketing are more likely to sit on the market and require adjustments.

Successful sellers are:

• Pricing based on current market conditions, not past peaks

• Preparing homes thoroughly before listing

• Working with data-driven strategies

Looking Ahead to 2026

As we move into 2026, the Calgary housing market is expected to remain more balanced than in recent years. This creates a healthier environment for both buyers and sellers — but it also means decisions must be made with the right information.

Understanding how these broader statistics apply to your specific neighbourhood, property type, and price range is key.
