Just sold! 🏡🎉

This one of a kind home was originally a barn, now completely reimagined into a warm, character filled retreat set on over 2 acres. The open oak staircase, multiple fireplaces, and beautifully updated kitchen made every detail of this home unforgettable.
A truly special property, now onto its next chapter.✨

Spring is almost here and the numbers are showing real shifts in the housing market 📊🌷

🔹 Listings are increasing: new inventory is rising year-over-year, giving buyers more choices before the spring rush.
🔹 Prices remain relatively steady: median list prices nationally have been holding around typical ranges even as demand normalizes.
🔹 Mortgage rates are moving in your favor: the average 30-year rate recently dipped below 6%, which helps affordability as spring kicks off.
🔹 Homes are selling with more buyer leverage: nearly 8% of homes nationally sold below asking price, the largest share in years, meaning there’s opportunity for well-positioned buyers.

Locally in Ottawa, home values are up about 10.6% over the past year, showing long-term strength as we head into spring.

This spring won’t be about guesswork. It’s about using data and strategy to make your move. Let’s look at your options early and position you for success before the busiest season hits 🏡📈
