The Market is more cautious since January 2008 for both Buyer's and Sellers. This more cautious market is mainly reflected on larger higher priced homes over $500,000.
Essentially as the US and Canadian Stock markets have dropped then not fully recovered many people are less sure of there wealth and are not buying or more carefully buying the High End Homes. The Market for freehold homes from $250,000. to $500,000. will see price increase of 4.5 to 5.5% this year.
The long term prospects are excellent for Ottawa based on various reports from CMHC, The Region of Ottawa Carleton's Long Term Plan and other industry commentators.
All this means for now is if you wish to move up in price between now and the Summer of 2008 would be a good time especially for Higher priced homes. Interest Rates are still very low and will continue to be so for this year.. That means Buyer can pay more and Sellers can get more. A win win situation for both!
