A new survey suggests that after a cool spring for Ottawa's housing market, prices will heat up in the months ahead.

Royal LePage's Market Survey Forecast expects housing prices to rise 7 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2023, from $719,900 in 2022 to $770,293.

The aggregate price of a new home decreased 4.8 per cent in the second quarter of 2023, to $761,600.  The survey by Royal LePage finds the median price for a single-family detached home decreased 5.8 per cent year-over-year to $876,400, while condominium prices dropped 4 per cent to $400,000.

In its revised forecast, Royal LePage says it expects the aggregate price of a new home to increase 7 per cent in the fourth quarter.

"Ottawa remains an increasingly attractive region to Canadians and newcomers, over more expensive alternatives," Jason Ralph, broker of record and president of Royal LePage Team Realty, said in a statement.

"That affordability, however, hasn’t necessarily stretched to the rental market, where more attractive neighbourhoods have seen prices go up,” Ralph added. “Builders are working on purpose-built rentals, but that won’t help the market until next year."
