When you rent, what you've paid is completely absorbed by your landlord and you get nothing in return. But if you purchase, what you pay towards the value of your home, is yours.

And you are never stuck. If you decide after a few years that you want to move, you can sell it and what you paid towards the cost returns to you.

Here are the advantages of owning this home in particular. Newly built condo building and probably the most affordable, centrally located home in Ottawa.

Condo fees are only $322 per month and the only other monthly expenses are hydro (always less then $50), Internet, and unit insurance. All other utilities (water and gas) are included in your fees.

It doesn't come with a parking spot but because you are so close to everything, you can walk all the time. And if you need to go somewhere farther, you can take public transit. No need to worry about car expenses anymore (maintenance, gas, insurance, traffic...).

Oh and it comes fully furnished with everything you see in the pictures, except for the bedroom which is virtually staged. The bedroom currently contains a standing desk, office chair, and mattress.

Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.
