What will the Ottawa Real Estate market look like in 2022 you might ask?
“January through March are usually slower months. With the macro factors that are currently at play in the resale market, it is difficult to predict what the effects will be going forward. We are entering yet another pandemic wave, Buyers are fatigued, parents are focusing on remote learning, interest rate hikes are looming – I don’t expect we will see the first quarter increases as we did in 2021” suggests Ottawa Real Estate Board’s new 2022 President Penny Torontow.
