Price vs last year is CREB®'s own figure for this community: the change in their benchmark price year to date against the same period last year, as at November 2, 2026. It is not a single-month comparison, and it is measured differently from the median beside it — CREB® uses a benchmark index, we use the median of actual closed sales. Published with CREB®'s permission. Segments with fewer than 20 sales year to date are left blank, because a percentage on a smaller base than that is noise rather than a trend.

Where a home type had fewer than 5 sales in the last 90 days we leave it out, rather than publish a median that is not reliable. Calculated from Pillar 9 MLS® sold data for the 90 days ending November 4, 2026. Updated daily. General market information on this website was last updated on November 4, 2026.

Did You Know

What Makes Varsity Special

A few things that set Varsity apart from every other community in Calgary.

🎓
University of Calgary Neighbour
Varsity was developed beginning in 1963 directly adjacent to the University of Calgary — it remains the preferred address for U of C faculty, Foothills Hospital physicians, and research professionals.
🏠
Three Communities in One
Varsity actually comprises three distinct areas — Varsity Acres, Varsity Estates, and Varsity Village — each with its own character, price range, and lot configuration.
🌲
Bowmont Park on the Doorstep
The Bowmont Natural Area — kilometres of river valley pathways, off-leash areas, and escarpment views along the Bow River — is walkable from most homes in Varsity.
📈
Bungalow Investment Gold
Varsity's mid-century bungalows on large inner-NW lots deliver exceptional returns for renovators and infill developers — one of Calgary's most reliable long-term investment communities.
