According to the Calgary Real Estate Board, consumers haven’t lost all of their confidence in the housing market because it and the energy sector haven’t gone through the “worst case scenario” that both could have – which is good news!

Home buyers who were expecting to see more wide scale price declines have noticed that hasn’t occurred yet, therefore some have regained confidence and are taking advantage of the increased home selection and very low mortgage rates currently being offered by lenders.
