The Six Week Window You Can't Miss

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 10:00:00 -0400

The spring market in Ottawa is not arriving the way most people expected, and if you are waiting for the headlines to tell you when to move, you are already behind.

In this episode, we break down the March numbers and what they are actually signalling beneath the surface. Days on market dropped sharply, inventory is rising, and prices are quietly firming up in ways that do not show up in the general conversation yet. Detached homes, townhouses, and condos are each telling a different story right now and knowing which segment is leading the recovery could completely change your approach as a buyer or seller this season.

We also look beyond Ottawa at what is happening nationally, from major urban centres seeing sharp price swings to smaller markets in Quebec and the Prairies quietly outperforming. Migration trends, transit challenges, and off-grid property demand are all adding new layers to the affordability picture coast to coast.

New Build Prices Just Shifted: Here's What Changed

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 10:00:00 -0400

Most people buying a new build right now have no idea that the rules just changed, and whether that change puts money back in your pocket or quietly disappears depends entirely on what you know before you sign. In this episode we break down the new HST rebate rules and what they actually mean in practice, because the way builders and lawyers are handling these changes varies wildly and the difference could cost you thousands. We walk through four real scenarios that show exactly how this plays out at the table and what you need to ask before you get there.

We also get into what is happening in the broader market right now. Geopolitical tensions are pushing energy prices up, inflation is responding, and mortgage rates are moving in ways that are genuinely hard to predict even for the people who set them. Ottawa's spring market is caught in the middle of all of it and we explain exactly how that affects your timing as a buyer or seller.

The $130,000 Rebate Nobody's Talking About Correctly

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 10:00:00 -0400

Everyone is talking about the $130,000 HST rebate but almost no one understands how it really works. We break down what is actually happening behind the scenes and why this confusion could cost buyers thousands. In this episode, we uncover the real mechanics of the Ontario HST rebate and we explore how purchase prices, incentives, and monthly payments are affected and why this one year window could be one of the most important opportunities in the Ontario housing market right now.

If you are looking at new builds in Ottawa or anywhere in Ontario, or even Canada, this conversation will change how you think about rebates, affordability, and timing. We connect the dots between mortgage strategy, housing supply, and government incentives so you can make smarter decisions in a fast shifting Canadian real estate market.

First-Time Buyers Have Waited Years for This Market: Here's What Actually Happened

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 10:00:00 -0400

First time buyers in Canada have been told to wait, save more, and be patient for years now, and the market has not rewarded that patience. In this episode we sit down with Shaun Cathcart, Senior Economist at the Canadian Real Estate Association, and we get into what the actual data says about where the Canadian real estate market stands right now, how mortgage rate swings and global events are reshaping what buyers can realistically afford, and whether the long awaited recovery is something buyers can actually count on or just another headline that fades. Shaun also breaks down the housing supply problem in a way that makes clear why building more homes is not as simple as politicians make it sound.

If you are a first time buyer in Ottawa or anywhere in Ontario trying to figure out whether now is the time to move, this conversation gives you the clearest picture available right now from someone who works with the data every single day.

Mortgage Renewals Are About to Get Expensive: Here's Why

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 10:00:00 -0400

Mortgage renewals could be the most expensive financial decision you have ever made without even realizing it. We are in a rate environment where even the experts admit predictions over three to five years are essentially guesswork. In this episode, we break down what is actually driving mortgage rates in Canada right now, why global events you would never think to connect to your monthly payment are quietly shaping what you will owe at renewal, and what Ottawa homeowners need to be thinking about before they sit down with their lender.

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 18:45:00 -0400

In this week’s episode of the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we discuss how global geopolitical conflicts are quietly influencing mortgage rates across Canada and why markets react so quickly to international events.

If You Wait for a Crash You Could Lose Thousands in 2026

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 10:00:00 -0400

Most buyers are waiting for rates to fall or for a market crash that may never come. But what if 2026 is the year that waiting quietly costs you thousands?

In this episode of the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we share what we learned at the Mortgage Professionals Canada Conference and how it could reshape your strategy. We talk about why rates are expected to stay stagnant in 2026, why a major housing crash is unlikely, and how demographic shifts are quietly driving long term housing demand across Ottawa and Ontario.

We also talk about inventory levels, construction slowdowns, government policy impacts, and what they mean for housing affordability in Canadian real estate. If you are a first time home buyer, a homeowner thinking about early renewal, or an investor watching interest rate forecasts, this conversation could change how you approach your mortgage strategy.

This New Mortgage Option Could Cost You Thousands More

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 10:00:00 -0400

A new 2 percent down payment program sounds like a breakthrough for first time home buyers. But when we look closer, the numbers tell a different story.

This week on the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we break down Nova Scotia’s new down payment option and why it may come with higher mortgage rates than many expect. We connect the dots between inflation, housing affordability, and the growing impact of regulatory red tape on Canadian real estate prices.

We also discuss recent inflation data, how it influences mortgage rates across Canada, and why structural housing policies continue to shape home ownership opportunities.

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 10:00:00 -0400

In this week’s episode, we discuss how federal public service job cuts could influence Ottawa’s housing market and local economy.

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 10:00:00 -0400

This week on the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we sit down with realtors Greg Campbell and Frances Ebbrell to talk about the shifts buyers and sellers are feeling right now across Ottawa. We talk about the benefits of home seller closing insurance, why buyer behaviour is changing, and how pricing strategies are making or breaking deals in today’s market.

We also compare East and West Ottawa to see where real value is showing up for first time home buyers, how community vibes impact demand, and why smaller towns around Ottawa are creating stronger connections than ever.

Wed, 21 Jan 2026 10:00:00 -0400

As 2025 begins, buyer confidence is quietly returning to the Canadian real estate market. In this episode, we discuss what’s shifting beneath the surface, why experience matters more than ever in a tighter market, and how a little known CMHC program could change the conversation for couples navigating separation or divorce.

The Real Reason Canadian Home Prices Are About to Rise

Wed, 14 Jan 2026 10:00:00 -0400

As 2026 begins, optimism is quietly returning to Canadian real estate. In this episode, we unpack what December numbers really say about buyer and seller balance, why downsizing has become more complicated than expected, and what modest price growth could look like in the year ahead. From employment trends to easing rental pressure, this conversation focuses on real market psychology and local insight rather than headlines. Is stability the real story of 2026?

2026 Renewals Are About to Flood the Market

Wed, 10 Dec 2025 10:00:00 -0400

In this week’s episode we break down the real estate trends shaping buyer behaviour, the growing caution in the Canadian housing market, and why so many people are holding out for better deals. We talk about the impact of recent employment data on mortgage rates, the sudden appeal of variable rates over fixed, and why 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year with a surge in renewals and activity. We also discuss how bank consolidations may reshape lending across Canada and how Royal LePage’s price predictions align with what we are seeing on the ground. Rising mortgage arrears and tighter broker regulations point to a major shift in the quality and stability of the market. Watch the full conversation to hear our thoughts and see how these trends may shape the next two years.

Why Markets Are So Slow To Recover (and Why It Might Be Permanent)

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 10:00:00 -0400

In this week’s episode of the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we unpack the surprising trends shaping the Canadian real estate market right now.

As always, we keep it real, informative, and a little bit entertaining.

Ottawa is Killing the Housing Market #ottawarealestate

Wed, 22 May 2024 10:00:00 -0400

Is Ottawa killing the Housing Market? In this episode of the Ottawa Real Estate podcast, the hosts discuss various topics related to real estate and taxation in Canada. They touch on the new rule that requires Canadian tenants to withhold 25% of their rent if their landlord is a foreign resident, the impact of the Canadian inflation rate on interest rates, and the increase in capital gains tax. The hosts also talk about the record number of construction workers in Canada and the discrepancy between the number of workers and the actual housing production. They also discuss the recent increase in development charges in Ottawa and its impact on housing affordability.

Key topics discussed in this episode include:

* The new rule requiring Canadian tenants to withhold rent for non-resident landlords

* The impact of the Canadian inflation rate on interest rates

* The increase in capital gains tax and its effect on middle-class individuals

* The record number of construction workers in Canada and the lack of housing production

* The recent increase in development charges in Ottawa and its impact on housing affordability
