Sunshine, Sales, and Summer Vibes
Hello from the heart of the Rockies, July in Canmore has arrived with a bang—and what a celebration it’s been so far! Our Canada Day festivities kicked things off with all the charm and cheer that locals and visitors alike have come to love. From the pancake breakfast, Canada Day Run and of course the energy of the downtown parade, wasn’t it amazing? We are so grateful to call this place home.
As locals hit the trails, paddle the Bow, or explore local art walks, the real estate market is also buzzing with activity—continuing a strong seasonal rhythm into the heart of summer.
🏘️ Canmore Market Snapshot – Q2 & First Half of 2025
The market has been delivering impressive results across the board. Here’s what we’re seeing:
- Median sales prices rose year-over-year in the second quarter for single-family homes, townhomes, apartment-style condos, and recreational properties—a testament to Canmore’s enduring desirability across buyer segments.
- Number of sales in the first half of 2025 was within just 1% of 2024’s numbers, reflecting a welcome return to consistency following a slower start in 2023.
- June’s list-to-sale price ratio came in at 98.43%—the highest since April 2023—indicating strong buyer motivation and tight negotiation margins.
- Inventory remains low, continuing to favour sellers, with months of supply placing us in a seller’s market.
Whether you’re thinking of cashing in on current demand or looking to find your foothold in Canmore, timing and strategy are everything.
