  • March 2017 MONTHLY STATISTICS PACKAGE CREB® Region Report Mar
    March 2017 MONTHLY STATISTICS PACKAGE CREB® Region Report Mar. 17 REGIONAL HIGHLIGHTS April 3, 2017 First quarter sales totalled 294 units in Airdrie, which is ten per cent above the same period last year and comparable to the long- term average. Much of the gain was due to a rise in the number of attached sales. Persistently lower new listings in Airdrie also helped prevent further inventory gains in the resale market. However, competition from the new home market continues to weigh on resale pricing, particularly in the attached market. The unadjusted benchmark price for detached homes averaged $381,433 in the first quarter of 2017, similar to the previous quarter, but 2.6 per cent below the same time last year. There were 114 residential sales in Okotoks through the first quarter of 2017. Improved demand in March led sales to a twelve per cent increase year-over-year in first three months of the year. Stronger sales, combined with steady reductions in inventory, have prevented steeper price adjustments. The unadjusted benchmark price for a detached home totalled $431,333 during the first quarter of 2017, which is 0.20 per cent below levels from the previous quarter and 2.9 per cent below the first quarter of last year. First quarter sales in Cochrane were the second highest on record and remain well above long term trends. Increased SHARE OF SALES March 2017 activity in the attached sector has been a key driver for this market. The attached segment now 1% Calgary 2% accounts for a 31 per cent share 5% of total residential sales activity Airdrie 5% compared to only 25 per cent in 2% 2014.
