Calgary Weekly Market Update - July 19, 2008

By

Below is my weekly market stats update. I call your attention to a growing gap between the condo and house markets (see the second chart and the red arrrow). If this trend continues I'll write in detail about it in next month's Monthly Market Report (in about 2 weeks). In the meantime... my advice is be careful if you are selling a condo - it is crucial that it be priced right if you are serious about selling it. For background you may want to read my Monthly Market Report from February 2008 or my blog post here from a few weeks ago where I talk about predictions regarding this emerging trend.
July 19, 2008 Current Listings Sold in Last 30 Days Absorption Rate (?)
