But now that housing markets across the country appear to be rebounding and interest rates are expected to drop, this year is poised for a return to more predictable inventory increases.

Using this figure, we expect that the number of new listings in Toronto in May will reach at least 17,688.

For example, in May 2017, there were a whopping 25,837 new listings on the market. Before that, new listings were typically above 18,000 in May.

Vancouver has historically had a short supply of homes and there isn\u2019t likely to be any significant changes to the housing supply in the near future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on an average rate of increase of 44.2%, we predict that Vancouver\u2019s new listings will reach at least 5,408 in May, which is down 6.5% from last year in May. Since new listings in March were already at 4,917, it is possible that new listings in Vancouver could surpass that number and reach closer to 6,000. The last time new listings surpassed 6,000 in Vancouver during the spring season was in May 2022.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe title=\"Calgary New Listings (2014 - 2024)\" aria-label=\"Column Chart\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-28JWm\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/28JWm\/2\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"410\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();<\/script><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-360.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29175\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-360.png 600w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-360-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-360-750x559.png 750w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-360-768x572.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Demand Outstrips Supply in Calgary<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the past few years, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/calgary-ab-real-estate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Calgary<\/a> has remained in a seller\u2019s market as an influx of out-of-province buyers keeps demand high, with inventory little room to catch up. From January to June each year between 2014 to 2023, the number of new listings in Calgary has only surpassed 6,000 twice - in April 2021 and March 2022. And in most of the last ten years, new listings in May have stayed under 5,000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this in mind, and based on Calgary\u2019s average rate of increase of 59.3%, we expect new listings in Calgary to be around 4,358 in May 2024. This is slightly below the number of new listings in May last year but is in line with the number of new listings experienced in 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2019.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe title=\"Edmonton New Listings (2014 - 2024)\" aria-label=\"Column Chart\" id=\"datawrapper-chart-OxiKR\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/OxiKR\/2\/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width: 0; min-width: 100% !important; border: none;\" height=\"410\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">!function(){\"use strict\";window.addEventListener(\"message\",(function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(\"iframe\");for(var t in a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"])for(var r=0;r<e.length;r++)if(e[r].contentWindow===a.source){var i=a.data[\"datawrapper-height\"][t]+\"px\";e[r].style.height=i}}}))}();<\/script><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-361.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-361.png 600w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-361-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-361-750x559.png 750w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Frame-361-768x572.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Balanced Market Conditions in Edmonton&nbsp;<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/edmonton-ab-real-estate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Edmonton\u2019s<\/a> housing supply is generally more stable than Calgary\u2019s.

This would be a drop compared to the number of new listings in the past three years, however, sales in Edmonton are not outpacing supply by too much which means the market benefits from much more balanced conditions than Calgary.
