Zara's take · Ottawa
Ottawa is currently a leaning toward buyers.

The latest monthly average sold price is roughly 16.4% lower than 12 months earlier. Monthly averages move with the mix of homes that sold, so treat this as a direction rather than a precise change. Supply is at ~5.2 months — between the usual seller's and buyer's thresholds.

Practical takeaway

Buyers: you have real negotiating power right now. Sellers: consider pre-listing inspections and competitive pricing to stand out.
