Chinatown Calgary average
Pricing & liquidity
Median apartment price (3-month average) plotted against days on market in Chinatown.
The grey bars are how long homes take to sell; generally, when they shrink, the price line rises. Right now Chinatown is selling slower than the seasonal norm (a 3-month median of 50 days versus 42 days historically for this time of year). When homes take this long to sell, inventory builds and prices tend to cool or plateau.
