Mahogany real estate market · September 2026

Mahogany Calgary Market Report for Sellers

What the latest CREB® numbers mean for your price and your timeline, by home type.

Quick Answer

Should you sell in Mahogany right now?

It depends on your type of home. In September, buyers had the edge for detached homes, semi-detached homes and townhomes. For apartments, the market was fair for both buyers and sellers, right at the line.

What this means for you: Prices are a little lower than a year ago. The sellers doing well are pricing for today's market, not last year's.

Marnie's Take

Most sellers ask me how the market is doing. The better question is how your type of home is doing. One month of data can swing, especially with only a handful of sales, so I look at the trend before I tell anyone to change their plan.

Source: CREB® Mahogany monthly statistics, September 2026. Typical price is the September 2026 MLS® Home Price Index benchmark, compared with the same month last year. Time to sell is the average days on market for homes sold in September. September is a single month: 15 detached, 4 semi-detached, 3 townhome and 12 apartment sales, so the smaller categories swing a lot from month to month.

Detached benchmark price (MLS® HPI) · January 2025 to September 2026

Detached home prices found a floor last winter

The typical Mahogany detached home fell about 8% from its spring 2025 peak to January 2026, a deeper drop than the 6% for detached homes across Calgary. Since then Mahogany has recovered about 3% and Calgary about 2%. Mahogany detached homes still sit about 9% above the city's.

Where sellers get caught

Pricing from what a neighbour got last year.

Every Mahogany property type is priced lower than a year ago. Starting from an old sale puts you above the market before your home is even listed.

Marnie's Take

Prices haven't fallen off a cliff. They've settled. The sellers I see struggle are the ones still anchored to spring 2025. Buyers are shopping today's prices, and your list price has to meet them there.

Months of supply · September 2026

Months of supply: the most important number for sellers to know

It shows whether buyers or sellers have the edge right now, and how much your starting price matters.

"Months of supply is the time it would take for the current inventory to sell at the current rate. It's calculated by dividing the number of houses currently for sale by the average number of homes sold per month."

Think of it like a store shelf

Mahogany has about 139 homes for sale. About 34 sell each month. If no new homes were added, how long until the shelf is empty?

Read it like a gauge

The faster the shelf empties, the more buyers are competing. The slower it empties, the more choice buyers have. A reading has to hold for a few months before it counts as a true buyer's or seller's market.

SELLERS FAIR BUYERS 0236+ Mahogany: 4.1 months
  • Sellers have the edgeUnder 2 months. Few homes, buyers compete.
  • Fair for buyers and sellers2 to 3 months. Normal activity.
  • Buyers have the edgeOver 3 months. Buyers can shop around.

What this means for you: In September, the needle moved past "fair" into buyer's territory. One month doesn't make it a buyer's market, but buyers can compare more homes, so the price you start at matters more.

In real life, new homes keep coming on the market, so this measures balance, not a forecast. September 2026 data.

Ranges follow CREB®'s guidance for Calgary: seller's conditions emerge when supply stays under 2 months for at least three months, 2 to 3 months is typical of normal activity, and buyer's conditions can start to show when supply is above 3 months and sustained. CREB® notes the line can vary by home type. Data: CREB® Mahogany statistics, September 2026.

Decision framework

Sell now or wait?

The market matters less than your next move. Here's how most sellers decide.

Now often makes sense if
  • You're moving up within Calgary. You sell and buy in the same market, so a softer market helps on the buying side too.
  • You're relocating on a deadline. Certainty is worth more than waiting for a better month.
  • Your home is ready to list. Prepared and priced to today, it competes well now.
Waiting can make sense if
  • You have no fixed timeline. You can choose the season with less competition for your home type.
  • Your home needs work first. Listing before it's ready costs more than the wait.
  • Your next home isn't clear yet. Settle where you're going before you set a price.
The Risk Here

Waiting for prices to bounce back is a bet, not a plan. If you'd sell and buy in Calgary either way, the gap between the two usually matters more than the price of either.

Marnie's Take

I'd rather help you decide not to sell than help you list at the wrong time. Your next move should set your timing, not the headlines.
