Recent numbers point to a market where preparation matters more than rushing.
If you are trying to decide whether to start touring now or wait, I would not wait without a reason. In Strathmore, AB, there is enough selection to be thoughtful, but not enough room to shop without a plan.
Last month, Strathmore, AB had 102 homes available and 30 sales, leaving supply at 3.40 months. Buyers were seeing homes move in 56 days on average, while successful offers came in around 97.0% of asking, which tells me there is some room for discipline but not much room for drifting. My read is simple. You can be selective, but you still need to define your ceiling and your must-haves before you start walking through homes. With 49 new listings over the same period, choice exists, yet the market is still active enough that hesitation can leave you chasing the same decision twice. Set your budget cap first. Narrow your search to the property type and price range you can act on comfortably. When you find the right fit, move with a clean offer strategy instead of reopening the same debate after every showing.
