Come out, come out, wherever you are!

Yoo hoo, Buyers!  Where are you??

Wow. Things really slowed down in the Ottawa market over the summer. Most Realtors noticed that they were not getting many showings on their listings. Good homes have been taking longer to sell simply because there haven't been many Buyers around!  It was a total turn-around here in Alta Vista, where we went from a hectic Seller's market to a slow balanced market in a short period of time.  Just goes to show how quickly the market can change!

Luckily, now that summer vacations are done and kids are back at school, people are getting back into their regular routines.  I've been getting more showings again on my listings and things are starting to slowly pick up. Hopefully that means a few more offers and sales will happen before the winter holiday slow-down hits.

So, Buyers, now that you're coming out of your hiding place... how about these apples?

1393 Orillia Street, Alta Vista. $539,900.  This is a lovely home with a peaceful and private yard, and is meticulously maintained. And so close to everything, including Alta Vista Public School just around the corner.

1451 Clontarf Street, Alta Vista. $599,900. This one is no longer on MLS, but it is still available as an exclusive listing to very serious buyers only. It has a HUGE backyard and is so homey and comfortable feeling inside.  It just makes you happy to be in this house, it really feels like home.

I also have an exclusive listing for one of the very popular condo townhomes across from South Keys. 4 bedrooms, private courtyard with a new deck, and no shared walls. It won't last long once it goes on MLS. If you've been looking for one of these townhomes and would like an advance preview, give me call!
