Edmonton, AB (August 2026) — The Greater Edmonton Area (GEA) real estate market reported 2,535 sales in July 2026, decreasing 7.6% in comparison to activity in June 2026 and 11.0% compared to July 2025. There were 4,258 new listings — a month-over-month decrease of 1.0% and a year-over-year increase of 0.6%. Inventory levels rose 0.9% from the previous month and are 17.9% higher than July 2025. Average selling price across all residential property types decreased by 1.8% from the previous month to $475,079, a price 2.6% higher than July 2025. The MLS ® Home Price Index (HPI) composite benchmark price in the GEA was $429,100, decreasing 0.3% from June 2026 and showing no change year-over-year. “A significant shift in numbers occurred in July, following seasonal trends as the spring market fervor has faded into the summer months. Decreased sales—despite ample inventory—softening prices, and longer days on market are strong indicators that demand is subsiding. Numbers may rebound slightly through fall, but we’re unlikely to see activity reach the same volume again for the remainder of the year.” –Darlene Reid, 2026 Board Chair, REALTORS ® Association of Edmonton Statistics reflect market activity in July 2026 | Source: REALTORS ® Association of Edmonton | Market values stated are of the average of Edmonton and surrounding region.

OPTIMIZING YOUR WORKSPACE

Remote employment offers a unique opportunity to manage your work-life balance effectively, yet it also presents distinct challenges. A primary concern for those working remotely is the development of chronic back pain resulting from prolonged sedentary behaviour. This is typically caused by a combination of poor ergonomics and inefficient configurations, which often lead to reduced productivity and physical ailments such as migraines, cramping and eye strain. Here are some suggestions for ergonomic improvements: • Seating : Investing in an adjustable chair or utilizing lumbar cushions.

• External keyboard and mouse : Keeps your hands and wrists in a neutral position. • Monitor placement : Elevating your screen to eye level reduces neck strain. • Modify computer settings : Adjusting your monitor’s brightness, font size and contrast.
