Exciting times in the real estate world in Calgary:
1. Blanket rezoning to support an evolving city
2. Extremely low inventory (seasonal but also fundamental)
3. Lots of investment into the city (new arena, new districts; evolving city skyline)
Data are in from January's market performance:
1. Increased Listing Activity: BUT little change to total inventory; months of supply: 1.3 months
2. Benchmark Price Continues to Creep Up: $572,300 (+10% YoY)
3. Detached Prices Reach $702,200 (+13% YoY and 1% MoM)
As expected the bulk of the appreciation has been acutely focused on the lower priced product, specific to east Calgary and townhome and apartment property types.
