Ottawa Real Estate Chaos: Why Deals Are Falling Apart Fast

In this week’s episode of the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we sit down with Realtor Greg Campbell to break down what’s really happening in the market. Interest rates didn’t drop last week, he's seeing more deals falling apart than ever, and sellers still pricing homes unrealistically. We also talk about terminated listings, declining rents, and inspection reports that are driving buyers away. Plus, we explore how housing stats are calculated and what they tell us about Ottawa’s current market. Whether you’re renting, buying, or selling, here’s what you need to know.
