Canmore’s real estate market has seen an increase in inventory; the total housing inventory has reached 3.6 months, which equates to a balanced marketplace – there is a slight favouring toward a seller’s market. It is important to note that summer is not an ideal time to list a house or condo in Canmore as many people travel throughout the summer months; it’s simply not top of mind until the school year begins.
There are some anomalies in the stats this month’s real estate stats. Because there have been few sales, there are higher average values than expected. It’s also worth noting that the days on the market have increased about 20% over June’s numbers. Many houses have remained on the market for longer than the recent stats will indicate because these have not sold; it will be worth watching what these sell for later in August and into Fall.
Fun fact: the average single-family Canmore home has doubled in value in the last three years!

Canmore Condo Apartment / Hotel Condos / Tourist Home Values
The Canmore condo real estate segment is where we see a little bit more of the market shift. The values are more balanced, and in some cases, we are seeing sales prices that are lower than we expected. . Condo apartments sold for $763,000, 6% up from July 2021. (a great time to purchase an apartment condo in Canmore!) Hotel condos sold for $615,800, up 6% year to year. Tourist homes sold for an average of $916,000, up by 47%. We expect hotel condos and tourist home prices to begin to lower as interest rates increase; this market segment is mortgage rate sensitive.
