Seton home prices: what's really happening

Values have softened, but modestly. The benchmark price is the best measure of what a typical Seton detached home is worth, because it isn't skewed by which homes happened to sell that month. At $728,400, it's down 4.33% from August and 3.47% from last year. That's a real dip, not a crash.

Why the average and median look lower. The average sale price fell to $662,980 and the median to $645,000. With only 5 sales, one or two smaller homes can pull those numbers down fast. That's why the median dropped 8.57% year over year while the benchmark only slipped 3.47%.

The takeaway: Both the average and median sit $65,000 to $85,000 below the benchmark. That means September's sales leaned toward smaller or entry-level homes, not that every Seton home lost that much value. Always look at the benchmark first.

Is Seton a buyer's or seller's market?

It's balanced, tilting toward buyers. Two numbers tell the story:

• Months of supply: 4.6. If no new listings came on, it would take about four and a half months to sell everything available. Under 2 months usually favours sellers, 2 to 4 months is balanced, and over 4 starts to favour buyers.

• Sales-to-new-listings ratio: 45.45%. Roughly 5 homes sold for every 11 that hit the market. Between 40% and 60% is generally considered balanced.

What changed from August: Sales held at 5, but inventory dropped 32.35% to 23 homes and months of supply fell from 6.8 to 4.6. Fewer sellers listing (11 new listings, down from 12) is tightening supply heading into fall.

What changed from last year: Sales are down from 8 to 5, but new listings are down even more (35.29%) and inventory is down 23.33%. Months of supply is higher than last September (4.6 vs. about 3.75), so buyers still have a bit more leverage than a year ago.

Homes are selling much faster. Average days on market is 47, down 51.04% from 96 days last September and down 27.69% from August. Well-priced Seton homes are moving.

What this means for Seton sellers

• Price it right from day one. Homes sold for 97.4% of list price on average. On a $700,000 listing, that's about $18,000 of negotiating room. Overpriced homes are the ones sitting well past 47 days.

• You're competing with newer homes. Seton still has builders selling new product. Clean, staged, well-photographed resale homes need to stand out against show homes.

• Less competition from other resale listings. Inventory is down 23.33% from last year and 32.35% from August. If your home is priced and prepped properly, you're not fighting a flood of supply.

• Plan for a 6 to 8 week timeline. That's faster than last fall, but not the quick weekend sales of a hot spring market.

What this means for Seton buyers

• You have options and time. At 4.6 months of supply, you're rarely racing multiple offers.

• There's room to negotiate. Sellers are accepting about 2.6% under list on average. Conditions like financing and inspection are on the table.

• Prices are lower than last year. The benchmark is down 3.47% year over year, so you're buying in below last fall's level.

• Don't wait too long. Inventory is shrinking and homes are selling twice as fast as last year. Fall still gives you better terms than spring will.

Douglasdale/Glen home prices: what's really happening

Values are holding steady. The benchmark price is the best measure of what a typical Douglasdale/Glen detached home is worth, because it isn't skewed by which homes happened to sell that month. At $723,200, it's down less than 1% from August and under 2% from last year. That's a small dip, not a drop.

Why the average price looks scarier than it is. The average sale price fell 15.54% from August to $639,125. With only 8 sales, a few lower-priced homes changing hands can pull that number down fast. The median price ($648,000) is actually up 0.27% from last September, which tells you prices are flat year over year, not falling off a cliff.

The takeaway: Both the average and median are well below the benchmark. That means September's sales leaned toward smaller or older homes, not that every home in the community lost $80,000 in value. Always look at the benchmark first.

Is Douglasdale/Glen a buyer's or seller's market?

It's a balanced market. Two numbers tell the story:

• Months of supply: 3.13. If no new listings came on, it would take just over three months to sell everything available. Under 2 months usually favours sellers, 2 to 4 months is balanced, and over 4 starts to favour buyers.

• Sales-to-new-listings ratio: 44.44%. Roughly 4 homes sold for every 9 that hit the market. Between 40% and 60% is generally considered balanced.

What changed from August: August was hot, with 17 sales and an 80.95% sales-to-new-listings ratio. September cooled off sharply: sales fell to 8, inventory climbed 31.58% to 25 homes, and months of supply nearly tripled from about 1.1 to 3.13. Part of that is the normal fall slowdown after the summer rush.

What changed from last year: Sales (8) and inventory (25) are identical to September 2025. But new listings are down 21.74%, so fewer sellers are coming to market, and demand relative to supply is actually stronger than last fall (44.44% vs. 34.78%).

Homes are taking longer to sell. Average days on market is 31, up 72.22% from last September and up 14.81% from August. Buyers are taking their time, comparing options and negotiating.

What this means for Douglasdale/Glen sellers

• Price it right from day one. Homes sold for 96.88% of list price on average, down from 98.29% in August. On a $700,000 listing, that's about $22,000 of negotiating room. Overpriced homes are the ones sitting past 31 days.

• Presentation matters again. With 25 homes to choose from, buyers are comparing. Clean, staged, well-photographed homes win.

• Less competition from new listings. New listings are down 21.74% from last year. If your home is priced and prepped properly, you're not fighting a flood of supply.

• Plan for a slightly longer timeline. Budget for 4 to 6 weeks to sell, not the quick weekend sales we saw in spring and summer.

What this means for Douglasdale/Glen buyers

• You have options and time. Inventory is up 31.58% from August, and you're no longer racing multiple offers on every home.

• There's room to negotiate. Sellers are accepting about 3% under list on average. Conditions like financing and inspection are back on the table.

• Values are stable. The benchmark is down less than 2% year over year, so you're buying into a steady market, not a falling one.

• Fall is a smart time to buy. Less competition now usually means better terms than you'll get when spring buyers return.

Calgary's September 2026 Market in 30 Seconds

How is Calgary's real estate market doing in September 2026? Calgary's market is stable overall but split by property type. Sales reached 1,650 homes, about 4% below September 2025, while the benchmark price held at $566,700, down less than 1% year over year. Detached homes remain balanced, while apartments and townhomes are leaning toward a buyer's market.

September 2026 Calgary Housing Stats at a Glance

Sales held steady with August instead of following the usual September dip, thanks to stronger detached sales. New listings rose month over month, pushing the sales-to-new-listings ratio down to 49%. Inventory and months of supply were essentially unchanged from August.

Detached Homes vs. Condos and Townhomes

Market conditions in Calgary depend heavily on what you're buying or selling.

• Detached homes: Balanced market. More new listings in September helped lift detached sales.

• Apartments and row homes: Buyer's market. Extra supply, plus competition from rentals and new construction, gives buyers more choice.

Why the split? According to CREB® Chief Economist Ann-Marie Lurie, the past three years of construction focused mainly on apartments and townhomes, while detached building didn't keep pace. Job growth and steady migration are still absorbing some new supply, but not enough to offset all the higher-density units added.

Calgary Home Prices: What Changed

Prices are holding steady once seasonal patterns are factored out. The unadjusted benchmark of $566,700 is just under 1% below last year, and seasonally adjusted prices were relatively flat compared with August.

Detached price softness is concentrated in the North East, East and North districts.

What This Means for You

• Buyers: Apartments and townhomes offer the most negotiating room and selection right now. Detached homes are competitive but not frantic.

• Sellers: Detached homes in well-located communities are still selling. Condo and townhome sellers should price sharply and present the home well to stand out.
