Here’s what you can buy for less than $500,000 in nine Ottawa neighbourhood

The number of residential properties in Ottawa valued at less than $500,000 has sharply declined over the past decade, according to a new report.

Data released by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation shows homes valued between $500,000 and $1 million make up the majority of homes available in Ottawa.

In 2013, 79 per cent of Ottawa’s homes were valued at less than $500,000, while 16.5 per cent of homes were valued between $500,000 and $750,000 and three per cent of properties were worth between $750,000 and $1 million.

According to MPAC, only 19.2 per cent of homes were worth less than $500,000 in Ottawa in 2023, compared to 43.2 per cent of Ottawa homes worth between $500,000 and $750,000 and 23.6 per cent of properties worth $750,000 to $1 million.
