The Airdrie real estate market has officially entered 2026, and after a very active few years, we're seeing a more balanced market take shape. December 2025 wrapped up the year with slower sales, rising days on market, and shifting inventory levels — all of which give us important clues about what may be ahead this year.
Below is a full breakdown of what happened in Airdrie in December and how the city is starting the new year across detached homes, duplexes, townhomes, and condos.
Airdrie Housing Market – December 2025 Overview
In December, Airdrie recorded:
85 home sales
79 new listings
143 listings pulled off the market without selling
Sales typically slow down at this time of year, but December marked something notable — it was the first month in three years where Airdrie dropped into double-digit sales. The last time that happened, inventory was only about one-third of what it is today.
The unusually high number of listings that were pulled off the market had a major impact on inventory.
At the beginning of October, Airdrie had 573 active listings. By the start of January 2026, that had dropped to 304 active listings, nearly a 50% reduction in just three months.
While 304 listings is still higher than what we saw during the ultra-tight markets of the last five years, it is lower than pre-2020 levels, and that drop in inventory pushed Airdrie back into a balanced market.
Months of Supply
Airdrie is now sitting at 3.58 months of supply, which is considered a balanced market. Over the second half of 2025, Airdrie bounced between a buyer’s market (over 4 months) and a balanced market (under 4 months), and that pattern appears to be continuing into 2026.
Days on Market
Homes in Airdrie took an average of 62 days to sell in December, up from 53 days the month before.This is the highest average days on market Airdrie has seen in over five and a half years, which signals that buyers are being more cautious and sellers need to be more realistic on pricing.
Airdrie Home Prices
The overall benchmark price for Airdrie is now $511,200, down 1.2% from November.
That puts the city 8.1% below the price peak reached in June 2024.
Detached Homes in Airdrie
Detached homes remain the largest and most stable segment of the market.
In December:
48 detached homes sold
46 new listings came to market
175 detached homes were active
This puts detached homes at 3.65 months of supply, almost identical to the overall Airdrie market.
Days on Market
Detached homes averaged 60 days on market, showing that even single-family homes are taking longer to sell than they did over the past few years.
Detached Home Prices
The benchmark price for detached homes is now $599,900, down 1.4% month-over-month.
This is the first time detached benchmark pricing has fallen below $600,000 since mid-2023, and prices are now 8.4% lower than the June 2024 peak.
Semi-Detached Homes (Duplexes)
Duplexes saw very light activity in December.
5 sales
12 new listings
35 active listings
That puts semi-detached homes at 7 months of supply, which places this segment firmly in a buyer’s market. But, because this is a smaller pool of data, pricing can swing more dramatically from month to month.
Days on Market
Semi-detached homes averaged 64 days on market.
Duplex Prices
The benchmark price is now $475,900, down 2.1% in one month and sitting 7.5% below the August 2024 peak. This was one of the largest single-month price changes we’ve seen in this segment.
Townhomes/Row Homes
Townhomes had a much stronger month compared to other segments.
27 sales
15 new listings
67 active listings
That gives townhomes 2.48 months of supply, which is still a balanced market, but closer to seller-friendly conditions.
Townhouse Prices
Townhome prices declined 1.2% in December and are now 7.2% below their September 2024 peak.
Condos and Apartments
The condo market remains the smallest and most volatile segment.
5 sales
6 new listings
27 active listings
This puts condos at 5.4 months of supply, keeping them in a buyer’s market.
Condo Prices
Interestingly, condos were the only segment to see a price increase in December, rising 0.25%. However, with such low sales volume, pricing in this segment can change quickly as more data comes in.
Condo prices remain about 8% below their October 2024 peak.
What This Means for Airdrie in 2026
Airdrie is starting 2026 in a balanced market with:
Lower inventory than late 2025
Longer selling times
Prices sitting 7–8% below peak levels
This creates a much more stable environment for both buyers and sellers compared to the extreme conditions of the last few years.
Different housing types are behaving very differently, which means pricing strategy and timing now matter more than ever.
