The prevailing trend in Ottawa’s housing market continues to be a lack of inventory needed to meet demand from the city’s homebuyers, according to local real estate observers.

“If demand continues to outstrip supply, we expect to see further price growth this spring,” Browne said in a statement.
Royal LePage forecasted late last year that Ottawa’s aggregate home price is expected to cross the $500,000 mark in 2020.
