Ottawa real estate
What our Ottawa real estate agents do for you
Our real estate agents in Ottawa and the GTA help you buy, sell, invest and lease. You work with one dedicated agent, with the whole team behind them: in-house staging and design, premium photography and video with Ground2Air Media, and support staff who keep the appointments and paperwork moving.
Megan Stagg leads our Ottawa team and Ashley Sala leads our team in Toronto and the GTA. Meet the team.
Get a comparative market analysis of your home from an agent on our team with our Ottawa home evaluation.
Buying a house in Ottawa
A search built around your priorities, preferred areas and timeline, including off-market and pre-market homes when they are available.
Selling your house in Ottawa
A pricing and launch plan from comparable sales, then preparation, staging, photography and video before your home goes live on the MLS® System.
A home evaluation
A comparative market analysis from one of our agents: what similar homes nearby have sold for, set against your home’s features and condition. It is not an appraisal.
Home staging and Seller Concierge
Staging, styling and interior design in-house through Centre-Staged, with trusted contractors, painters and cleaners for the work before you list.
Investment property
Buying a rental or a home with a second unit, or selling one, weighed against what you need the property to do.

Residential and commercial leasing, with a dedicated agent who guides you to a signed lease.
Commercial real estate
Buying, selling or leasing commercial property in Ottawa or the GTA.
Choosing an agent
How to choose a real estate agent in Ottawa
Interview more than one agent, and ask each of them the same questions. Here are five worth asking, with our answers.
01 / Which brokerage are you with?
Every agent on our team works through eXp Realty, Brokerage. In Ontario, agents on a team trade on behalf of the brokerage that employs them, so the brokerage’s name should appear wherever the team advertises.
02 / Who will I deal with day to day?
One dedicated agent, backed by the whole team. Our administrative and Inside Sales Agent support helps manage details, respond to inquiries and follow up with prospective buyers throughout the selling process.
03 / How will you price my home?
With a comparative market analysis: recent sales of similar homes near you, the homes buyers can choose from today, and your home’s size, layout, condition and updates.
04 / How will buyers find my home?
On the MLS® System, across our social channels and through our client database and network. The Reality Group and Northern Alliance have a combined Instagram following of 54,000+ and growing, and Ground2Air Media provides premium photography and video.
05 / Do you know my part of the city?
Megan Stagg and Mya Mahmoud were born and raised in Ottawa, and Mirna Botros and Noellee Gordon have called it home since the age of seven. Mirna has a particular expertise in Ottawa’s west end, and Sylvia Kachouh has experience in Orléans, Nepean, Barrhaven, Gloucester and Rockland. Read each story on our team page.

Good questions. Clear answers.
Before your next move.
Who is the best REALTOR® in Ottawa?
Neither RECO, which registers Ontario’s real estate agents, nor the Ottawa Real Estate Board publishes a ranking of agents. So the best agent for you is the one who knows your part of the city, prices your home from recent sales nearby and answers when you call.
What we can show you: our clients rate The Reality Group 5.0 on Google (read on 2026-10-13), Megan Stagg is an eXp ICON agent (August 2025 and July 2026), and every agent on our team works through eXp Realty, Brokerage. Read our client reviews and meet our Ottawa real estate agents.
How do I find the best real estate agent in my area?
Shortlist three or four agents who work in your neighbourhood, and check each one on RECO’s public register to confirm they are registered in Ontario. Then ask every one of them the same questions: which brokerage they are with, who you will deal with day to day, how they will price your home and how buyers will find it.
Read their Google reviews for moves like yours. Each of our Ottawa neighbourhood pages names the agent on our team for that area.
Do you work in both Ottawa and the GTA?
Yes. Megan Stagg leads our Ottawa team and Ashley Sala leads our team in Toronto and the GTA. Both help clients buy, sell and invest, with the whole team’s marketing and support behind them. Meet the team.
Can you help prepare my home for sale?
Yes. Our seller concierge covers in-house staging, styling and interior design, help coordinating contractors, painters and cleaners, and premium photography and video with Ground2Air Media. See the seller concierge services.
I’m buying and selling. Where do I start?
Start with one conversation about both moves. We look at your timeline, a comparative market analysis of your home and what you want next, then plan the order of the sale and the purchase with you. Book a consultation.
Can I start exploring before I’m ready to move?
Yes. Explore the neighbourhoods above, search homes on our page about buying a house in Ottawa, or ask for a comparative market analysis of your home, and talk to us whenever you are ready.
Which Ottawa neighbourhoods do you serve?
Ottawa and the surrounding areas, from Manotick, Barrhaven and Kanata to Orléans, Westboro and the Glebe. Our guides also cover Stittsville, Greely, Riverside South and Findlay Creek, and two home types: Ottawa condos for sale and Ottawa townhomes for sale. Explore the communities above or our guide to Ottawa homes for sale by neighbourhood, and each agent’s bio on our team page names the areas they know.
Do you help with leasing, investment or commercial real estate in Ottawa?
Yes. We help with residential and commercial leasing, with buying or selling an investment property, and with buying, selling or leasing commercial property in Ottawa or the GTA.
Where is your office?
At 75D Colonnade Road North, Nepean, ON K2E 0A8, in the Colonnade Road Business Park west of Merivale Road. RStudio, our creative studio and event space, is inside the same office, and clients can meet their agent in our boardroom. Our guide to Nepean homes for sale covers the streets around the office, from Centrepointe to Bells Corners. Contact The Reality Group.
What is the difference between REALTOR.ca and the MLS® System?
The MLS® System is the platform where REALTORS® share listing information. REALTOR.ca is the public-facing website that displays active listings from the MLS® System.
Who pays most of the closing costs?
Closing costs vary by transaction. Ask us what to expect, and we’ll give you honest advice and proactive communication.
What is the biggest mistake a real estate agent can make?
Not listening to your needs. Expect honest advice, proactive communication, and skilled negotiation.
What are the predictions for the Ottawa real estate market in the next five years?
No one can say where Ottawa prices will be in five years. Banks and housing agencies publish forecasts, and they are estimates; the figures we quote are the Ottawa Real Estate Board’s record of what has sold. From January to October 2026, 11,335 homes sold, down 7.3% from the same months a year earlier, and the MLS® HPI composite benchmark price was $616,900, down 1.3% from a year earlier.
Each month is added to our Ottawa housing market updates.
Is 2026 going to be good for real estate?
That depends on whether you are buying or selling, and on your timeline. The Ottawa Real Estate Board’s latest release, for October 2026, ran under the headline “Ottawa Home Sales Edge Higher in October as New Listings Ease”: 1,048 homes sold (down 10.7% year over year) and active listings were up 6.4% year over year.
We go through what that means for your neighbourhood and price range with you. Book a consultation.
What percentage do most REALTORS® charge in Ontario?
There is no standard percentage. No law sets one, and RECO’s Information Guide says the amount “is not fixed or approved by RECO, any government authority” or any real estate board. Commission is whatever you and the brokerage agree in writing: a percentage of the price, a fixed amount or both.
Our guide to real estate commission in Ontario works out what each percentage point means on an average Ottawa sale.
How long does it take to become a real estate agent in Ontario?
The courses come first, with a deadline. Humber Polytechnic, which delivers RECO’s Real Estate Salesperson Program, gives you at most 24 months from the start of Course 1 to finish the pre-registration phase: five eLearning courses whose average durations add up to 328 hours, an exam after each of the first four, and two simulation sessions of five and four days.
Then you register with RECO through the brokerage you join. See how to join our team.
