How Fast Homes Sell

Months of supply is how long current listings would take to sell at today's pace. Bankview sits at 3.00, City Centre at 4.59 and Calgary at 3.94. Lower means homes sell faster.

Condos were 51 of the 99 sales over the last 12 months, with 22 detached homes, 20 townhomes and 6 semis. In the 2021 census 77% of homes were apartments, households averaged just 1.6 people, and about seven in ten households rented.

17 Avenue SW, along the north edge, and 14 Street SW, along the east edge, are both named main streets, with restaurants, cafés, shops and services a short walk from most homes.

The Bankview Community Association at 2418 17 Street SW has a hall, tennis and pickleball courts, a basketball court, a playground and community garden plots, and the City lists an off-leash area in the community.

William Nimmons' 1898 brick house still stands near 14 Street and 19 Avenue SW, restored as part of a new apartment development.

Bus routes run along 17 Avenue and 14 Street, and the MAX Yellow station at 17 Avenue SW on Crowchild Trail is a few blocks west. See Calgary Transit for routes.

Downtown is a short bike ride or drive north, and Crowchild Trail is just west.

Bankview is covered by the West Elbow Communities Local Area Plan (2025). The City of Calgary's Bankview community profile has the census details.

Condos are mostly in walk-up buildings from the 1960s to the 1980s, typically about 753 sq ft, with fees near $590 a month. Check each building's reserve fund study, recent special assessments and parking before you compare prices.

Townhomes are mostly newer infills, about 1,518 sq ft. Detached homes include character houses from the 1910s to the 1940s on lots of about 3,864 sq ft, many narrower than a standard suburban lot.

For redevelopment, check the lot's current district; nearly all lots went back to their pre-2024 district after the City's rezoning repeal in August 2026.
