I promised back in November that I would provide the revised CREB® historical stats which reflect the new categories when they were made available, and here they are.
CREB®’s January 2015 month-end report will begin using these updated categories.
City of Calgary – 10 Year Historical
Includes: City of Calgary Total, Detached, Attached, Apartment

Category Definitions
Previously, properties were categorized based on ownership type and were grouped into single-family, condominium townhouse or condominium apartment. Now, properties will be categorized and reported on based on the following new property types:
- Attached: A unit (home) that is attached to another unit by at least one common wall.
- Detached: A unit that is not attached to any other unit.
- Apartment: An attached unit that has connecting enclosed hallway

Weekly Updates
I’ll be using these revised categories beginning with the February 1-7, 2015 weekly update, provided I can duplicate the official stats in our new system which I’m still learning/exploring – so please bear with me if there are delays.
Have a great weekend!
Does the attached category encompass both freehold attached and townhomes that have to pay fees? I feel those should be seperate for sure.. As they are currently?!

Yes, the attached category includes side-by-side infills and condo-townhomes alike. I would have preferred that they remained separate too.
