According to the Calgary Real Estate Board, "Calgary reported 1,234 sales in January, a year-over-year decline of 15 per cent, but in line with typical levels of activity for the month." The board also stated that "the rise in new listings compared to sales caused inventory levels to increase to 4,391 units, the highest January level since 2020." Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist, noted that "Following the typical December slowdown, potential buyers for high-density homes were more hesitant to return to the market in January, as increased supply choice across all aspects of the market has reduced the sense of urgency." The board further stated that "year-over-year total residential benchmark prices have declined by nearly five per cent, as steep declines reported in the oversupplied row- and apartment-style homes weighed on total residential prices compared to last year."
