Only district with positive YoY price growth; limited detached supply driving competition

What this means for buyers

Detached homes carry the highest absolute prices but also offer the most upside in long-term equity. Look at lot size, basement development potential, and proximity to schools. With 1.73 months of supply in SW Calgary, expect competitive offers and limited room to negotiate. Properly priced listings move within the 30-day average; overpriced listings tend to sit and become pricing-anchor problems for the seller.

What this means for sellers

Detached homes generally take the longest to sell among property types in any given quadrant, but they also command the highest dollar amount. Pricing right matters most. The current sales-to-new-listings ratio of 64% tells you how the demand-supply balance is leaning. Pricing within 2 percent of recent comparable sales (not 5 to 10 percent above) is the single biggest factor in selling within average days on market.
