I live in the area and I live it :) - Jason

February 2024 | Calgary Real Estate Housing Market Update
Low inventory and high demand drive price gains in February! New listings continued to rise in February, reaching 2,711 units. However, the rise in new listings supported further growth in sales, which increased by nearly 23% compared to last year for a total of 2,135 units.

The shift in sales and new listings kept the sales to new listings ratio exceptionally high at 79% ensuring inventories remained near historic lows.

Low supply and higher sales caused the months of supply to fall to just over one month, nearly as tight as levels seen during the spring of last year.

It is this strong demand and low supply that continues to drive price gains in Calgary. The biggest supply challenge is for homes priced under $500,000, which saw inventories fall by 31% compared to last February.

At the same time, we are starting to see supply levels rise for higher priced homes supporting more balanced conditions in the upper end.

In February, the unadjusted benchmark price was $585,000, an over 2% gain compared to last month and over 10% higher than levels reported at this time last year.

Our most affordable East district is experiencing the highest year-over-year price growth at 25%, while the relatively better-supplied City Centre has reported the slowest price growth in the city at under 5%.

I have sold a property at 37 Point Mckay COURT NW in Calgary

I have sold a property at 37 Point Mckay COURT NW in Calgary on Mar 1, 2024. See details here

End UnitTowhnouse BACKING ONTO A PARK Stunningly renovated and tucked away in a quiet corner of Point McKay, this townhome has it all. The end unit orientation provides a wonderful sense of privacy, especially as it backs onto a peaceful, treed courtyard. Inside, both the front door and the single-attached garage open into a spacious foyer, where gorgeous slate tile floors set a tone of homey elegance. The main level is dedicated to a living area flooded with gorgeous natural light. Rich warm tones in the plank flooring pair perfectly with a gas fireplace in a stone hearth for the ultimate cozy factor. Up the stairs, the dining area begs for good food and great company, and the sideboard offers a peek-through window that allows tons of light to flow up from the living room. The kitchen is exceedingly well-designed, maximizing counter and cabinet space and with big windows framing the breakfast nook. White cabinetry forms an attractive contrast with black tile backsplashes and gleaming dark granite. Accents in chrome bring the stainless appliances seamlessly into the aesthetic, and upgrades like a wall oven, bottom freezer fridge, and flat cooktop add a luxe touch to the space. A unique feature here is a butler’s pantry-style storage and laundry room, where extra cabinets and shelving for small appliances, food storage, and cleaning supplies will impress the organization enthusiast. A powder room rounds out this level. On the top floor, amazing vaulted ceilings give the sun-drenched primary suite an upscale vibe. In addition to a large closet, open shelving next to the two-piece ensuite is fantastic for compact or display items like linens, shoes, or books. Two more bedrooms on this storey form a rare and coveted layout in this area that works wonderfully for couples working from home or even a young family. The main bathroom is lovely in stylish black and white tones and high-end finishes. An unfinished basement offers plenty of seasonal storage as well as a utility sink. Outside, the deck is gated, and with privacy walls to each side feels like a sunny personal oasis. The courtyard is treed, with a pathway winding through it that will take you to the miles of green spaces, parks, and pathways edging the Bow River. Within steps, you can also enjoy the local tennis courts, the outdoor fitness park, or head to Riverside Spa for a day of pampering. For the foodies, area favorites like The Lazy Loaf and Kettle are in walking distance, or a quick drive will take you to trendy Kensington’s amazing food scene. Market Mall, the Foothills Hospital, and the Alberta Children’s Hospital are all close by, as is the University of Calgary. Plus, you can be downtown – or out of town headed to the mountains – in ten minutes. It doesn’t get better than this. I live in the area and love it -Jason

Buyers Are Coming

The future looks bright! Here are three reasons why these trends are impactful:

Growing Families: With 3 million marriages and 7 million births projected, we're witnessing a significant increase in family formation. This not only signals personal milestones but also indicates a surge in the demand for larger homes or homes in family-friendly neighbourhoods.

Pent-Up Housing Demand: As more people get married and start families, combined with declining mortgage rates, there's a pent-up demand for housing. This creates a favourable environment for sellers as the market experiences increased competition and potentially higher selling prices.

Economic Implications: The housing market is not just about buying and selling homes; it's a crucial indicator of economic health. Increasing marriage rates and birth rates, along with favourable mortgage conditions, can stimulate economic growth by driving demand for construction, home improvement, and related industries, contributing to overall economic prosperity.

Market Stimulus: The surge of retirement-age sellers will inject vitality into the real estate market, driving both supply and demand. This activity stimulates economic growth, fosters community development, and strengthens the overall health of our local housing market.

January 2024 | Calgary Real Estate Housing Market Update
January sales rose to 1,650 units, a significant gain over last year's levels and long-term trends. The growth was possible thanks to a rise in new listings totalling 2,137 units in January.

The months of supply in January was 1.3 months, falling over last month's and last year's levels. The persistent tightness in the market contributed to further upward pressure on home prices.

***Open House Saturday, February 3 @ 1pm-4pm.*** This inviting townhome in Northwest Calgary offers a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and style. The property showcases a modern 4-level split layout with stunning design choices that infuse a luxury feel throughout the home. A high-ceilinged living room is flooded with gorgeous natural light through windows all along the back wall. This cozy retreat steps out through sliding glass doors to a private patio, which is surrounded by trees to create a perfectly serene outdoor oasis. The heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances, rich wood cabinetry, and spacious granite counters. The kitchen's large window and track lighting create a warm ambiance, making meal preparation a delight, and an eating bar overlooks a welcoming dining area with enough space to host dinners and gatherings. A unique feature not found often in this area is a large, bright office nook off the kitchen ideal for working from home, and this level also conveniently includes a remodeled half bathroom. Up the stairs, another home office offers everyone in the family their own dedicated workspace, or it could easily be used for your other hobbies. The secondary bedroom is also on this floor, leaving the upper level for the primary bedroom in a floor plan that works well for hosting guests. The full bathroom is also on the top storey, making it feel like a private ensuite. On the lower level, the entryway provides access to the attached garage as well as the unfinished basement, where you will find plenty of storage space as well as a laundry area. This neighbourhood is popular for its proximity to the river, which is only steps away and offers hours of enjoyment along miles of pathways – bike commuters can ride right into downtown, too. Nearby parks include tennis courts, off-leash areas, and even an outdoor gym! Also, within walking distance, a variety of convenient amenities enrich your lifestyle. Riverside Spa is just steps away, as are local favorite eateries like the Lazy Loaf and Kettle and LICS Ice Cream, or head into trendy Kensington to enjoy some of the best shopping and dining in the city. Both the Foothills Hospital and the Alberta Children’s Hospital are close, as are the range of amenities at Market Mall. Immediate access to primary routes and transit makes running errands and getting around Calgary a breeze, and if you love the mountains, you can be headed toward them in seconds. This is the lifestyle you deserve.
