City market context

From the Fort McMurray market article, 21 September 2026:

Fort McMurray's housing market entered late 2026 with a marked reduction in available homes, as active listings dropped by nearly one-third compared to the previous year. This supply contraction supports price stability but leaves buyers facing a competitive environment with limited choices. Fort McMurray's residential market in August 2026 shows a significant contraction in available housing stock, with active listings falling from 421 to 278 year-over-year and new listings declining 14.29%. This supply-side tightening coexists with a median sold price of $388,000 and an average of 55 days on market, creating a seller's market dynamic where limited inventory meets steady demand.
