The average home price in Ottawa can fluctuate, but as of 2023, it’s generally higher than the national average. It’s best to consult with a real estate agent for the most up-to-date information and to get a breakdown of prices in specific neighbourhoods.
Property taxes in Ottawa are relatively high compared to some other Canadian cities. The exact amount can vary depending on the property value and location. It’s essential to factor property taxes into your monthly budget.
Ottawa’s housing market can be competitive, especially for desirable neighbourhoods or during peak buying seasons. Having a pre-approved mortgage and working with a knowledgeable real estate agent can increase your chances of securing a home.
When selecting a neighbourhood, consider factors such as proximity to your workplace, schools, amenities (like shopping and parks), public transportation, and overall lifestyle preferences.
Closing costs can vary but typically include legal fees, land transfer tax, mortgage insurance (if applicable), appraisal fees, and home inspection costs. It’s essential to budget for these expenses in addition to the down payment.
