CREB Housing Forecast Conference

Attending the 2025 CREB Forecast Conference provided valuable insights into Calgary's evolving real estate landscape. The Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB) anticipates a more balanced market in 2025, influenced by factors such as easing lending rates, improved housing supply, and continued, albeit slower, population and employment growth.

Key Takeaways from the 2025 CREB Forecast:

• Stable Demand: Housing demand is expected to remain above long-term trends, supported by past gains in population and employment, easing lending rates, and better supply options.

• Increased Supply: Record-high new construction levels are adding supply to the market, contributing to an increase in resale listings. As more new homes are completed in 2025, the overall supply is projected to grow.

• Price Growth Moderation: This shift toward more balanced conditions is expected to slow price growth to an annual gain of three per cent.

These developments suggest that 2025 could be an opportune time for both buyers and sellers in Calgary's housing market.

Additionally, potential U.S. tariffs may impact the Canadian real estate market. I will delve deeper into this topic in an upcoming blog post to explore its implications for Calgary's housing sector.

Staying informed about these trends is crucial for making well-informed real estate decisions. If you have any questions or need personalized advice, feel free to reach out.
