As this recent newspaper ad demonstrates, the real estate market in Ottawa has been stable and growing over 60 years. In that time, (1961, 1962, 1994, 1995 & 1996) only 5 years have shown negative growth. There have been the few odd years in the early 1970’s that growth in value was explosive but for the most part, Ottawa is stable and steady with very few booms and almost no busts. It’s like blue chip stocks, not overly exciting but good, steady and safe growth.
