Calgary Average Rents Doubled in 20 Years

In 20 years the average rents in Calgary have doubled. In the same time period the cost of an average single family detached home in Calgary has gone from $127,000 to $481,000. These are just two things we could compare the cost of over a 20 year period. Oil was $19 a barrel and gold was $344 an ounce in 1992. Those prices have more than doubled. The more things we add to the list of prices then compared to now - rent still looks like a bargain - Take the average detached home in Calgary today.... where else can you get the keys to an asset worth a half a million dollars for a couple of grand on average a month.

Where do you think these prices will be 20 years from now?
