## Record Benchmark Price Amidst Supply Constraints

The Okotoks housing market recorded a benchmark price of $474,842, representing a new annual high with nearly nine per cent growth. This figure appears in source material dated October 10, 2026, though the specific observation month is not explicitly stated in the retained evidence. The concurrent sales volume was reported as 10 units, indicating limited transaction activity during the measurement period.

An August 2026 sales-to-new-listings ratio of 81 per cent highlights significant supply constraints in Okotoks. The Calgary Real Estate Board noted that further declines in new listings likely limited sales activity during this period. This elevated ratio suggests that buyer demand outpaced available inventory, supporting the upward pressure on benchmark prices observed in the broader market data. Sources:
