Nearly Every Calgary Neighbourhood Sold Below Asking in Q2 2026

CALGARY, ALTA. — August 6, 2026 — Calgary’s housing market continued to favour buyers in the second quarter of 2026, with underbidding becoming even more widespread.

According to new data from digital real estate platform Wahi, 97% of neighbourhoods with at least five home sales were in underbidding territory. Just 2% recorded median sale prices above asking, while 1% sold at list price.

The citywide median difference between list and sold prices widened to –$9,950, compared with –$7,725 during the same quarter last year.

Conditions were especially soft in the condo market. Every one of the 76 neighbourhoods with enough condo sales to qualify was underbid. Non-condos remained somewhat more competitive, although 95% of qualifying neighbourhoods still saw homes sell for below asking.

The full analysis identifies Calgary’s most overbid and underbid neighbourhoods and explores where buyers may have the greatest negotiating power.

The complete report, including downloadable charts, is available here.

Wahi Economist Ryan McLaughlin is available for interviews to discuss what is driving the shift, why condos are facing softer conditions and what the results mean for Calgary buyers and sellers.
