Finally, some good news in the Citizen about the Ottawa real estate market. Today’s Ottawa Citizen has an article about it being a home buyer’s market and that Canadians are not as affected by the current economy.

The Ottawa Real Estate Board’s statistics show that, over the past 20 years, homes in Ottawa have appreciated in value an average of over 5% each year. Who’s RRSP portfolio is doing the same? Real estate continues to be a sound investment in the long term and Canadians realize that.

Happy house hunting!
