Calgary’s housing market is projected to experience steady, moderate price growth while maintaining a balanced environment next year, according to Royal LePage’s 2026 market outlook.

The forecast estimates the aggregate price of a home will reach $701,061 by the fourth quarter of 2026 — a 1.5 per cent increase from 2025. Detached single-family homes are expected to see the strongest gains, with median prices anticipated to climb three per cent to $828,429.

Condo prices are also forecast to edge higher, rising one per cent to $265,832.

“Calgary’s housing market is expected to remain consistent and balanced through next spring, with sales activity improving and home prices increasing modestly in 2026, driven by strong demand for detached homes,” said Corinne Lyall, broker and owner of Royal LePage Benchmark, in a news release.

She added that buyer confidence remains solid, with many would-be purchasers simply waiting for clarity on future interest rates or planning to resume their home search after winter.
