City of Calgary, June 1, 2018 – 卡尔加里五月份房地产销售持续减缓，尤其的独立屋市场成交大幅下滑（应该是消费者信息不足）。同时，新上市房源却持续攀升。 整个城市上个月仅成交1,726 单元，比2017年同期降低了19%，比长线均值降了24%。其中独立屋产品段的成交量下降到了10几年来罕见的状况。（今早客户打电话咨询买房子的事，还提到目前很多工程公司都裁员了，她也被layoff了。经济的复苏，还是挺艰难的，就只听见银行不断的涨息，BC + AB不停的打起来。有些人感觉就业怎么还不如去年？）。

"贷款利率的提高、以及申请贷款的日趋艰难导致了买家对于房地产各个产品段的需求都有所减缓，" CREB®房地产局首席经济学家Ann-Marie Lurie说到，"经济条件比前几年回复了一些，但是复苏的缓慢还没有国家贷款政策调整的步伐快，一轮又一轮的"。 市场供给却没有减缓，所以目前供给房源消化月份增加到4.9个月。（卖家要是想挂牌，做好签约6-12个月的准备，要不然价格还没有降到位，合同就已经到期了）。 由于供给量仍然攀高，整个城市价格复苏之路还是缓慢的，五月底市场基准价格为$436,900，和过去6个月差不多，比去年同期低了0.6% 。 独立屋供给量在各个价位区间都增加了，但是增加量最多的是50万以上的价格区间。高价位段的房源在市场上的天数和过去几年相比，依然很高，好在比2008-2009年的经济危机时期还是要短一些。 "贷款政策的调整也抑制了很多买家调换到大房子去，同时还有一部分人则等着市场调整到他们期待的状况才出手。然而，很多社区并没有大幅房源上市，所以对于消费者来说熟悉想要购买的社区、做好功课也很重要。" CREB® 房地产局主席Tom Westcott最后补充说到。

价格比较稳定，但是阿尔伯塔省的经济形势影响房地产市场 City of Calgary, May 1, 2018 银行贷款政策的再次变动, 以及经济复苏面对的挑战影响着卡尔加里的房地产市场。消费者的需求变弱，但是市场上可售房源的供给并没有放慢脚步，抑制价格复苏上涨。 CREB®卡尔加里房地产局首席经济学家 Ann-Marie Lurie 总结说：" 成交量放缓并没有什么让人吃惊的，因为经济复苏还没有强到可以抵消贷款政策变动带来的影响。在库存可售房源增加的同时，价格没怎么太变，因为某些地区价格上涨但是其它地区价格降低。" 整个四月份销售都比较疲软，卡尔加里成交量共1518单元，比2017年低了20%！比长线均值低了25% ！2018年独立屋产品段是成交量下降最多的年份，从年初至今仅成交2991套，比10年长线均值低了27%！ 截止四月底库存可售房源还有7324单元，比2017年多了32%，但是仍然比前一次2008年10129套可售房源低了不少。供给增加还是多余需求，但是整个城市价格还是保持相对稳定，总体市场基准价为$436,500，比去年四月份、今年三月份微涨0.21 %。

CREB®房地产局主席 Tom Westcott提到："现实是消费着在交易活跃的春季里有更多的选择。对于卖家而言，他们得决定依据各自不同的卖房原因背景，究竟想什么价位出手来改变生活方式。同时，对于买家而言，他们需要明白不同地段、不同房屋产品还是有很多区别的，要不然可能对于期待的谈判价格空间把握的不好。 " 到目前为止共管公寓、连体房屋销售量降到2016年的状况 ，然而供给量却大幅增加，导致平均在市场上的月份超过了4个月，严重抑制了价格回升。

Prices Remain Stable Amid Economic Challenges

City of Calgary, May 1, 2018 – Calgary's real estate market continues to experience challenges as mortgage lending policy changes and ongoing economic recovery struggles impact sales. Weakened consumer demand and increasing inventory levels have prevented price recovery, maintaining a sluggish market.

CREB® Chief Economist Ann-Marie Lurie explained:

"The slowdown in sales is not surprising, as the economic recovery has not been strong enough to offset the impact of mortgage policy changes. While inventory levels have risen, prices have remained relatively stable, with some areas seeing price increases while others experience declines."

Market Performance

April sales remained weak, totaling 1,518 transactions, representing a 20% decrease from 2017 and 25% below the long-term average. The detached home segment experienced the most significant decline in 2018, with 2,991 units sold year-to-date, 27% below the 10-year average.

As of April’s end, active inventory stood at 7,324 units, marking a 32% increase compared to 2017. However, this remains significantly lower than the 10,129 units available during the 2008 market peak. Despite the growing supply, prices have remained relatively stable, with the city-wide benchmark price at $436,500, reflecting a 0.21% increase from both April 2017 and March 2018.

CREB® President Tom Westcott noted:

"The reality is that buyers now have more choices during the traditionally busy spring market. For sellers, they need to decide on their pricing strategy based on their individual circumstances and motivations. Meanwhile, buyers must understand that different locations and property types vary significantly, or they may misjudge their negotiation leverage."

Segment-Specific Trends

Condominium and townhouse sales have dropped to 2016 levels, while inventory in these segments has surged. This has resulted in properties remaining on the market for an average of over four months, significantly restricting price growth.

As Calgary's real estate market navigates economic headwinds and policy shifts, both buyers and sellers must remain strategic in their decision-making to adapt to evolving market conditions.

2018年四月二日 就像预期的那样，整个卡尔加里2018年第一季度成交量的减缓延续到三月份。这并没有什么让人惊讶的，因为去年底销售量还是很强劲的，而今年初又有贷款政策的调整。 第一季度总共卖出3,423单元，比去年同期降低18%、比长线均值降低24%。成交量放缓、新上市房源稳步增加，导致库存可售房源增加哦，总体在售房源吸收率仍然超出了4个月。

房地产局首席经济学家Ann-Marie Lurie说到：“经济形势在缓慢改善，但是还不足以压制贷款利率提高带来的影响、以及越来越严格的审批条件。三月份我们进入了最活跃的月份，增加的供给房源带来价格波动。然而，经济的复苏预计将会防止价格大幅下滑。” 价格在第一季度慢慢下滑的情况下，总体和去年同期没有多大变化，主要因为独立屋总体价格增加，从而缓解了公寓市场价格下滑带来的影响。 真个城市独立屋市场基准价第一季度均价为$502,000，比去年第四个季度稍微低一些，但是比去年第一季度要好一些。三月份独立屋市场基准价为$503,800, 比经济衰退以前的高峰值低3.6%，但仍然比经济衰退期间的低峰值高1%。（换句话说，就是不好、也不坏。）

“目前的市场比经济衰退低谷时起状况要好，”房地产局主席Tom Westcott提到，“对于寻求新房子的买家来说，还是能够在适中的价格买到房子。同时，对于卖家来说，他们也能卖到不错的价格。在任何经济形势下买卖房屋，买方卖方能够被自己的经纪人提供充分的信息才是最关键的。因为不同类别的房屋、不同地段的房屋，市场状况是不一样的。” 2017年第一季度独立屋可售房源创历史最低数量，而今年第一季度库存可售房源比去年同期超出2,573单元，仍然比2015、2016年第一季度在卖的房源数量低10%。春天还会有比去年更多挂牌房源，价格会缓慢复苏。然而，因为房屋类别、地段的不同，价格调整还是有区别的。

Prices remain stable compared to last year

Calgary, April2, 2018–As expected, slow sales this quarter have persisted through March in the City of Calgary. This is not a surprise, after stronger growth in sales at the end of last year following the announced changes to the lending market. First quarter sales totaled 3,423 units, nearly 18 per cent below last year’s levels and 24 per cent below long-term averages. Easing sales and modest gains in new listings caused inventories to rise and months of supply to remain above four months. “Economic conditions are slowly improving, but it has not been enough to outpace the current impact of higher lending rates and more stringent conditions,” said CREB® chief economist Ann-Marie Lurie.

“We are entering the most active quarters in the housing market with more inventory, which could create some price fluctuations. However, the improving economy is expected to prevent overall prices from slipping by significant amounts.”

While prices trended down on a quarterly basis, they remained relatively unchanged over last year’s levels due to modest gains in the detached sector offsetting declines in the apartment sector. The citywide benchmark price for detached product averaged $502,000 in the first quarter. This is slightly lower than the fourth quarter of last year, but comparable to levels recorded in the first quarter of last year. In March, the detached price reached $503,800, 3.6 per cent below pre-recession highs, but one per cent above the lows recorded during the recession.

“The market today is better than what we experienced at the peak of the recession,” said CREB® president Tom Westcott. “You can find good value if you’re looking to buy a home, and you can also get good value if you’re selling. Being well-informed, in any economic condition, is the key, because there are differences in the market depending on what type of property it is and where it is located.”

Detached market inventories in the first quarter of 2017 were low compared to historical standards. This year, detached inventories have averaged 2,573 units over the first quarter, 10 per cent below first quarter averages recorded during 2015 and 2016. Spring will have more inventory than last year, slowing progress on price recovery. However, the amount of price adjustment will vary depending on competing supply by location and product type.

HOUSING MARKET FACTS

• While detached benchmark prices eased by 0.25 per cent over the previous quarter, the quarterly decline was not consistent across all areas. Prices were stable in both the south and south east districts, while in the city centre, prices improved over the previous quarter.

• Despite the recent easing of new listings, the apartment condominium sector continues to struggle with excess supply in the resale, new-home and rental market. This is impacting prices. Condominium apartments averaged $256,567 in the first quarter, one per cent below the previous quarter and three per cent below levels recorded in the first quarter of 2017. Overall, monthly apartment prices are over 14 per cent below the highs recorded in 2014.

• Year-over-year, attached price changes have ranged from growth of four per cent to declines of 3.7 per cent depending on the sector of the city. Prices improved in the city centre, north west and south east districts of the city. However, those gains were offset by the losses in the north east, north, west, south and east districts. Attached benchmark prices averaged $328,533 in the first quarter and remain unchanged from levels recorded at this time last year.

• Activity within the attached sector continues to vary based on row product versus semi-detached. Semi-detached prices remained relatively stable compared to last year and last quarter, thanks to recent improvements in the city centre district. Meanwhile, row prices eased slightly over the previous quarter, with prices easing across all districts compared to the fourth quarter of 2017.

卡尔加里二手房市场价格波动不大，但是成家量下滑 2018年三月一日 民宅在二月份成交量下降，但是由于新上市房源也相应减少，所以总体价格波动不大。

本月共成交1.094单元，比2017年同期减少了18%！各个房地产产品段成交量都减少了，超过了一月份的成交量涨幅，所以前两个月加起来，成交总量比长线均值低！ "房地产总体状况仍然受贷款利率提高、以及贷款申请条件变动的影响，预计这个过程是会有波波砍砍的，毕竟需求带动整个市场引领政策的调整"，房地产局首席经济学家Ann-Marie Lurie讲到。 "然而，大家一定要注意到目前还是政策变化的早期，政策的调整对于价格的影响最终还是依赖卖方的打法变动。"

新挂牌量的下降并不足以抑制总体供给房源量的增加，但是它们还是相应抵消了成交量减少的负面影响。独立屋房屋产品段，60-100万的房源是成交量下滑最厉害的，很惨的是这一区域新挂牌的房源确是增幅最多的。（那个价位段的卖家几乎也不再想等了，等啥？不卖、出租？价格啥时候会再回复到2007-2008年或者2014年的短暂辉煌？？） "目前的市场很严峻，卖家们必须明白定价准确才是成功销售的基石。同时，准备充分的买家们都清晰地知道自己到底能够购买那个价位段以内的房屋"房地产局主席Tom Westcott提到。 "伴随着近期贷款政策的调整，潜在买家们应该提前拿到pre-approvals函件，这样能够在出offer以前就了解自己究竟能够承担得起什么样的价位，同时买家们也可以依据市场状况作出相应调整。"

整个城市范围内二月份市场基准价为 $434,300, 比上个月稍微高一点儿，和2017年同期没什么区别。从年初至今，独立屋、连体房屋价格都相对稳定，公管公寓市场比去年同期降低3%。
