Ottawa Homes - Up to 90% Off ! - All Sales Final !!
Buying and selling property in Ottawa should be a pleasant experience. But our beloved media insists on the use of Journalism 101, selective/slanted reporting, to announce the impending demise of the Canadian housing industry. When I last checked, even the most westerly point in Ottawa is not all that close to the most easterly point in Calgary. So why do our media darlings insist on lumping our stable housing market with boom/bust oil, or those Bloc B.C. folks. As a Realtor I often feel like a salmon swimming upstream when engaged in real estate talk with my clients. Putting off that Ottawa home purchase because Vancouver prices are dropping is essentially delaying the next step in our quality of life. Yes I'm biased, but I'm a consumer too. Buyer's market? You bet...selection is great, mortgage rates are fabulous, and CMHC forecasts an increase of 3.6% in 2009 for Ottawa real estate. Take that, stock market!
For those who currently have their property up for sale, pass this blog on - you'll do us all a favour.
