Calgary’s housing supply continued to expand in July, reaching 6,917 active listings—the highest level since before the pandemic and above long-term seasonal norms.

Spring Cleaning in Calgary: Declutter for a Cause 

As we transition into a new season, there's no better time to refresh your space—and your mindset—by tackling a good old-fashioned declutter. But here’s the twist: this year, why not turn your spring cleaning into something that gives back?
