Calgary Real Estate Statistics for June 2021
Sellers Market Continues in June Despite Rising Inventory
The Calgary real estate market is still red hot with record-breaking sales reaching 2915 units in June 2021.
“It is taking time for supply to catch up with the demand in the market,” said CREB® chief economist Ann-Marie Lurie.
“Through the early spring market, many buyers did not have a lot of choices, but the recent improvements in supply are providing more options for those purchasers and supporting the strong sales we continue to see in June. At the same time, gains in inventory are taking some pressure off the market as it starts to trend towards more balanced conditions.”
New listings reached the second-highest level ever recorded for a month at 4,135 for June. This has caused our overall inventory to trend up to 6,918 units. Although this is higher than the long-term averages, the market was balanced by strong sales with the monthly supply remaining relatively tight at 2.4 months. Having said that earlier in 2021 the supply levels were under 2 months so June is showing a small improvement in inventory levels. As the Calgary real estate market moves into a more balanced market we see slowing price growth. While the pace is still growing it is not growing as quickly in June as in previous months.

Detached Calgary Real Estate
The detached Calgary real estate market remains in a seller's market throughout the month of June. The benchmark pricing continues to rise with sales to a new listing ratio of 76% and low inventory levels. The total benchmark price rose 13% over the June 2020 pricing. Despite high demands for detached homes in Calgary, there is variation depending on location. The strongest demands in supply are North, Northwest, South, and Southeast. Each of these zones has less than two months supply of homes keeping these zones in a seller's market. The low inventory levels in these areas have kept the market tight and resulted in the highest year-over-year price increases.
