The median price of homes, the middle value of homes sold, fell to $420,500 last month, down from $430,000 in August, said the Calgary Real Estate Board in its monthly housing sales report.

The pattern was identical in the condominium market, where more supply and fewer sales also resulted in more affordable prices.
