There is little doubt that all the layoffs and negative news about our economy are having an effect on housing prices in Calgary. Sales are way down when compared to this time last year for both condos and single family homes. Having said that, good homes are selling and the market is not at a complete standstill. If you are a seller, you need to make sure your home shows as well as possible and you have to price it right. Buyers have a lot of choice and can afford to wait for that perfect property.
