Hey there, house hunters and curious homeowners! If youâve been wondering âIs now a good time to buy or sell a home?ââyouâre not alone.
The Calgary and Airdrie real estate market has been BUSY, and Iâm here to break it all down for you in simple words, fun facts, and no boring stats (okay, just a fewâbut only the important ones).
So grab a coffee â or juice box đ§and letâs dive into whatâs happening in the world of homes this spring!
đ CALGARY: More Homes. More Choices. More Calm.
Last year, buyers were rushing like it was Black Friday. Today? Things are starting to chill out.
đ Whatâs New?
- Listings have exploded. There were 5,867 homes for sale in Calgary this April. Thatâs 47% more than last monthâand a whopping 141% more than last year! Buyers now have way more to choose from.
- Sales slowed down (but thatâs OK). Calgary saw 2,236 homes sold in April. Thatâs fewer than last year, but itâs not a crashâitâs a reset. Experts say this is more ânormal.â
- Prices are holding steady. The benchmark price in Calgary is $591,100. That means homes arenât getting cheaper, but theyâre not skyrocketing either. Thatâs called balance, and itâs a great thing for both buyers and sellers.
đď¸ What Types of Homes Are People Buying?
- Detached homes: Still popular! Avg price: $769,300.
- Townhouses: Avg price: $464,600.
- Apartments: More buyers are loving these! Avg price: $336,000.
đ˘ If youâre looking for a condo downtown or a family home in the âburbs, youâve got optionsâand less pressure.



đĄ AIRDRIE: Steady as She Goes
Letâs talk about Calgaryâs little sibling: Airdrie. Itâs growing up fast and still turning heads!
đ Whatâs the Buzz?
- Inventory is up. There were 433 homes for sale in Airdrie this April. Thatâs more than weâve seen in months.
- Sales are staying strong. Airdrie saw 185 homes sold, with a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 64%. Translation: homes are moving, but youâve got breathing room to look around.
- Prices are gently rising. Airdrieâs benchmark price is $544,700, which is slightly higher than this time last year. Itâs a sign of steady growthânot a runaway market.
đĄ Airdrie is still a smart pick for families who want more house for their dollar and easy access to Calgary.



đĄ What Should YOU Do Right Now?
Whether youâre thinking of buying, selling, or just watching, hereâs what April 2025 means for you:
â If You’re a Buyer:

- Even better: Prices arenât jumping every week. That gives you a chance to shop smart.
