How risky is it for you to consider selling right now? https://guides.chamberlaingroup.ca/15?ref=39hbDn29
In Calgary's $750,000 to $950,000 market, homes are selling at 98% of list price — but 99% of sellers still price like it's 2022.
If you're thinking about selling your Calgary home to move up to something bigger, you're not alone. Families across Calgary neighbourhoods like Aspen Woods, Evanston, and Kensington are feeling the same thing — their current home just doesn't fit their life anymore. The kids need more space, you need a proper office, and you keep driving through neighbourhoods, wondering "what if we lived here instead?"
But here's what most Calgary families don't realize until it's too late. Your sale price doesn't just determine what you walk away with — it determines what you can compete with on the buy side. Miss your sale number by $30,000 and that's $30,000 less buying power when the perfect home in Hillhurst or Mount Royal comes on the market.
Jared Chamberlain has watched this pattern play out hundreds of times across Calgary. Sellers who think they're being smart by pricing high to "leave room for negotiation" are actually pricing themselves out of their own buyer pool. While they're sitting on the market for months, comparable homes in neighbourhoods like Bridgeland and Inglewood are selling within weeks at full asking price.
The data from the last 90 days tells the real story. 506 homes sold between $750,000 and $950,000 in Calgary. The median sale price was 98.38% of list. That means buyers are only negotiating about 1.5% off asking — roughly $12,750 on an $850,000 home. Price your Kensington bungalow $50,000 over market value and buyers shopping for homes in Hillhurst aren't even seeing your listing.
The families who get this right understand something crucial: your current home sale is the engine that funds your next chapter. Under-price and you leave money on the table. Over-price and you miss the market entirely. Get it wrong either way and your dream of moving to that better neighbourhood becomes a two-year mistake that costs more than it saves.
