Three useful lenses

The same market can mean different things.

For buyers

Ottawa remains balanced overall, with more inventory than last year. Apartments are softer than single-family homes, so citywide figures should not replace a property-type comparison.

Test my buying range

For sellers

The average resale price rose while the benchmark measure fell, which points to a change in the mix of homes sold. Use recent comparable sales from the same segment.

Estimate my sale proceeds

For watchers

Ottawa’s headline is stable but uneven. Inventory is higher, the market remains balanced, and apartments carry more of the pricing pressure than single-family homes.

Source trail

The trend uses one comparable series. Regional resale signals appear where a current local source is available. Source dates are not mixed or hidden.
