Altadore is the community with the largest average price increase since 2005 — 231 per cent
The dean of the Haskayne School of Business says the energy sector has been keeping the city's real estate market growing.
The Calgary Real Estate Board says in 2013 resales were more than 10 per cent higher than the previous year, and it's predicting growth for this year of close to four per cent.
The University of Calgary’s Jim Dewald said the energy sector has been keeping the city's real estate market growing.
Altadore is the community with the largest average price increase since 2005 — 231 per cent
“I think there's a lot of lifestyle changes people are looking to be able to walk to work or take transit to work. Spending less time sitting in their vehicles in traffic and so that again drives up prices that demand the popularity of inner city communities is having an impact in terms of the prices going up.”
Dewald also says the city has been short on a supply of homes to sell and low interest rates also attract buyers.
Location, location, location
Location is the key. “The inner city is what I think is really, really strong. Some people want to live north of the river some want to live south.”
CREB chief economist Ann-Marie Lurie says it was a better year than expected because of more people moving here and job growth.
“If you couple that with the fact that the rental market was so tight all of that resulted in stronger than expected demand.”
Lurie says new construction will help increase the housing supply.
CREB also warns delays or rejection of pipeline projects or problems with raising investment money could translate into a weaker demand for housing in Calgary.
Calgary Market in May 2014
Sales improve as consumers have more choice
City-wide price gains and better weather support year-over-year gains in new listings
Calgary, June 2, 2014 – Residential sales in the city of Calgary totaled 2,948 units in May, a 16 per cent increase over the previous year. Sales last month were well above long-term trends and are the highest May activity on record.
“Strong sales activity is a reflection of improving fundamental conditions such as a growing population, favourable lending rates and rising wages,” says CREB® chief economist Ann-Marie Lurie. “Leading up to May, resale market sales were somewhat restricted by lack of choice. However, recent price gains have encouraged growth in new listings, helping meet some of the housing demand.”
Calgary, June 2, 2014 – Residential sales in the city of Calgary totaled 2,948 units in May, a 16 per cent increase over the previous year. Sales last month were well above long-term trends and are the highest May activity on record.

However, recent price gains have encouraged growth in new listings, helping meet some of the housing demand.”
In May, new listings totaled 4,327, a 16.5 per cent rise over figures reported during the same time last year with gains in new listings nearly matching sales growth. While inventories remain nearly five per cent below levels recorded last year, this is the first time in over two years that year-over-year declines were not in the double digits.
While market conditions continue to favour the seller, improving supply has helped ease some of the tightness in the market.
“Market conditions vary depending on the product type,” says CREB® president Bill Kirk. “Both condominium apartment and townhouse style products have recorded inventory growth relative to last year. This is good news for consumers looking for more choice in condominiums priced between $200,000 and $400,000.”
Year-to-date condominium apartment sales have totaled 2,020 units, a 21 per cent increase over the first five months of 2013. Meanwhile, the recent boost in new listings caused inventory levels to rise to 1,051 units, a 13.1 per cent increase compared to last year, representing 23.3 per cent of all city-wide inventories.
“The single family market varies depending on the price and location,” explains Kirk. “While the majority of sales are occurring in the $300,000 to $500,000 range, the number of new listings in this segment has lessened relative to last year, which indicates most new listing growth is occurring in the higher end of the market.”
Year-to-date, single family sales and new listings totaled 7,662 and 11,093 units respectively. While May saw new listings improve by 11 per cent compared to the same month last year, sales growth continued to exceed new listings growth, keeping inventories levels nearly 12 per cent below May 2013 levels.
The unadjusted single family benchmark price totaled $504,300 in May 2014, a 10 per cent increase over the previous year.
Meanwhile, typical condominium apartment and townhouse prices reached a respective $295,400 and $321,400 in May 2014. Despite year-over-year gains that surpassed double digit per cent in both segments, condominium prices in both segments continue to remain just below peak.
“Persistently tight market conditions continue to support stronger than expected price gains,” says Lurie. “While supply levels are improving, demand remains strong preventing any significant run up in inventories. However, we may see more divergent behaviour in the single family and condominium markets, impacting the relative price growth in each of these sectors.”

2014年五月份房地产统计 --- 价格增长超过预期
消费者有更多选择，成交量提升
整个城市范围销售价格增长，逐渐变暖的天气支撑更多房主挂牌，年初至今挂牌量超过去年
卡尔加里, 六月二号, 2014 – 民宅五月份成交量为2,948 套，比去年同期增长16%，同时超过了长线均值，成交量创了历史新高。
销售的强势增长主要源于人口的增长、薪资的提高，以及适中的贷款利率。五月份之前，二手房市场销售由于可选房源有限有些受限制。然而，价格的增长刺激了新挂牌量的提升，希望有助于满足部分买家的需求。
本月新挂牌量为4,327套，比去年同期增加了 16.5%，也几乎和销售量涨幅吻合。目前库存房源年初至今累计比去年同期低了近5%，这还是两年来第一次降幅比率低于10%。
目前仍然是卖方市场，增加的在售房源帮助缓解了紧张的市场态势。房屋产品不同，市场条件也有所不同。共管公寓、排屋的在售房源都比去年同期有所增长，这对于购买20-40万之间公寓的买家来说是个好消息。
年初至今公寓共售出2,020 单元，比2013年同期增加了 21%。同时，近期大量新上市房源，使得在售房源提升到1,051单元，比去年多了13.1%，占了整个城市在售房源的23.3%。
独立屋市场就由于地段、价格不同有不同表现。30-50万之间的房屋是成交最活跃的价位区间，可是新挂牌量却比去年降低，这一迹象告诉我们大部分新挂牌房源价格高于50万。年初至今独立屋成交量、挂牌量分别为7,662套、11,093套。五月份新挂牌量涨幅为11%，成交量持续超过新挂牌量的增幅，使得在售房源比去年同期低了金12%。
本月独立屋市场基准价仍保持在$504,300 ，比去年同期高出10%。共管公寓、排屋市场基准价分别为$295,400 、 $321,400。尽管年初至今共管公寓、排屋市场都以两位数值增长，但是价格仍然低于2007年峰值。（这暗示我们，投资公寓市场还是有利润空间的。）
持续吃紧的市场条件继续支撑价格增长超过预期的市场，不过供给条件改善了不少，强势的购买力阻止了库存房源的明显增长。我们应该会看到独立屋市场、公寓市场的不同表现，也会影响到价格的不同增长走势。
（近期的感觉是由大量资金从国内涌入，同时很多移民人口从多伦多、温哥华迁移到我市，购买100万的买家还是相当多的，市场还会保持热旺。）
