Source: CREB®, City of Calgary Monthly Statistics Package, November 2023, page 5 [1]. Change is CREB®’s year-over-year change; for the two ratios it is the change in percentage points.

From January to November 2023, 26,058 homes sold in Calgary, 8.44% fewer than in the same months of 2022 (28,459) [1].

What these numbers mean. The benchmark price is CREB®’s price for a “typical” home and is the best number for tracking price trends, because the median and average move with the mix of homes that happen to sell in a month. Months of supply is how long today’s inventory would last at the current pace of sales. A lower number usually means a tighter market for buyers.

What CREB® reported

CREB®’s headline for November 2023: “Increased listings, strong sales, and price growth” (news release, Dec. 1, 2023) [2].

CREB® reported that new listings rose nearly 40 per cent from the unusually low level of a year earlier, with the biggest gains for homes priced over $600,000. Strong sales kept inventory low: the sales-to-new-listings ratio stayed at 80 per cent and months of supply below two. [2]
