Zingers #15 – Popcorn, Perfume and Lilacs

Avoid offending potential buyers who have scent sensitivities.  Follow the rules that are posted in many offices:  No popcorn, no perfume and no flowers.   After you sell the house, have a feast of popcorn while wearing Brut aftershave and gazing at your lilac bouquet.  

Be scent sensitive.

Ottawa House Hunting – What is moving in Britannia

It has been several months since I last wrote about Britannia.  It is time to look at what has been selling and at what prices since the beginning of this year.  Note that the statistics are drawn from data available to real estate representatives on the Ottawa Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service®.  The data does not include homes that have been sold directly by owners or transfers of ownership not conducted through the MLS® process.  I have included sales in MLS® area 6101 (Britannia) and 6102 (Britannia Village).
