Barb Kramer joins the Open House team this weekend to recap the latest mortgage & real estate news in Ottawa! Barb & Paul open this segment with how Mother Nature can directly affect the curb appeal of your home. With the recent rain over the week, the dried, brownish grass was able to recover. Paul emphasized how important curb appeal is when attracting prospective home buyers to show interest in your home.

Ottawa's real estate market is still healthy, with sales not matching as much as last year's sales numbers, but still at a healthy, impressive pace. As mentioned in previous segments, condos in the city are still struggling, but the rest of the homes are moving as a quick pace. During this time of the year, as families prepare to head back to school, the market should stall a bit until everyone's schedules are back to normal. Right as fall begins; Paul confirms this is the second best time of the year to for listing a home.

Barb Kramer discusses that due to this being the busy season of the year in regards to the real estate and mortgage industry, now is the time to review your mortgage for any upcoming renewals.
