March 2023 - Calgary Real Estate Housing Market Update

Sales and new listings have improved over the levels reported at the beginning of the year. As a result, the spread between sales and new listings supported some expected monthly inventory level gains.
However, the 3,233 available units reflected the lowest March inventory levels since 2006 and left the months of supply just above one month, firmly in the seller’s territory.

While conditions are not as tight as last March, low inventory levels leave purchasers with limited choice, once again driving up home prices. Total unadjusted residential home prices reached $541,800 in March, a 2% gain over last month and nearly 1% higher than prices reported last year.

While prices remain below the May 2022 high of $546,000, the pace of price growth over the first quarter has been stronger than expected due to the persistent seller’s market conditions. March recorded 3,318 new listings compared to the 2,432 sales, leaving the sales-to-new listings ratio relatively high at 73%. However, both sales and new listings have eased by 40% compared to levels reported last March.

How To Make Your Entryway More Impressive

Entryways have the ability to be an impressive statement and give a home a luxurious finish and feel. If you’re looking to make your entryway more impressive or simply want to spruce it up, here are a few unique ways to turn heads.

Grand Lighting: Install a statement chandelier or pendant light to add a touch of glamour and drama to your entryway. The right lighting fixture can instantly make your entryway look luxurious and elegant.

Bold Colors: Consider using a bold color on your front door or accent wall to make a statement. Rich, deep colors like emerald green or navy blue can create a sense of luxury and sophistication.

Ornate Mirrors: Hang a large, ornate mirror in your entryway to reflect light and create the illusion of more space. A well-chosen mirror can also add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your space.

Statement Art: Consider hanging a large piece of statement art in your entryway to make a bold statement. Choose a piece that speaks to your personal style and complements the rest of your home's decor.

Luxe Materials: Incorporate luxurious materials like marble, brass, or velvet into your entryway design. A marble entryway floor, brass light fixtures, or a velvet bench can instantly elevate the look and feel of your space.

Unique Accessories: Incorporate unique accessories like a vintage umbrella stand, a statement vase, or a sculptural side table to add interest and personality to your entryway. These small touches can make a big impact on the overall look and feel of your space.

Customized Door: Consider installing a custom-made door with intricate carvings or detailed glasswork to create a grand entrance that's unique to your home. A custom door is an investment that can make a big impact on the look and value of your home.

I have sold a property at 3803 Point Mckay ROAD NW in Calgary. See details here

This townhome in popular Point McKay has style for days! Inside, the big bright entry is shared with the single attached garage. On the airy main level, full-height, triple-pane windows, and soaring ceilings are emphasized by a balcony-style stair landing, and glass railings allow natural light to filter back through every room. A corner fireplace in the living area is ready for your comfy chair and favorite book, and diagonal hardwood adds an artistic visual. Light wood tones and dramatic black accents form a classy contrast that continues into the dining area. The redesigned kitchen features sleek dark cabinetry paired with light quartz counters and oversize subway tile backsplashes. The eat-up island and the overlook into the dining room are rare elements that really bring the space together; perfect for entertaining! Heated tile floors keep your feet cozy as you cook, and there is also a laundry room here with tons of extra storage. Around the corner, a powder room has an exotic vibe, with unique design choices and quality finishes. On the top floor, the sunlit primary suite enjoys big windows and lovely views toward the river. The closet provides built in organizers, and the ensuite is reminiscent of an Italian villa, with textured walls and natural reds in the tile. The shower has a soaker tub, and glass blocks illuminate the unique space. In the second bedroom, a wall bed incorporates both a desk and bed for the ultimate functionality. A third bedroom could easily be your dedicated home office. In the main bathroom, nature-inspired finishes and high-end fittings evoke an alpine hotel, with an extended vessel sink, a wood vanity, and a gorgeous glassed-in shower. Outside, the deck gets a great mix of south and east sunlight, and surrounding hedges and trees give it a secret garden feel. This home is one of the best-located in the complex; it faces the historic sandstone McKay House, and backs onto a secluded glade next to the river paths. Visitor parking is also just a couple doors down. Walk, run, or bike along miles of the Bow River Pathway, or wander over to the area tennis courts or the outdoor athletic park. Nearby, Riverside Towers offer the luxurious Riverside Spa and Club as well as a golf centre, hair studio and a liquor store all within a short walk. You are also just a few minutes from iconic local eateries, LICS Ice Cream and the Lazy Loaf and Kettle. The Foothills Medical Centre, Children’s Hospital, and the University of Calgary are all in the area, and this well-situated community offers easy access to downtown and popular Kensington as well as a direct route west to the mountains.
