Hello Ottawa! We posted recently about recruiting a new family doctor to the community.

This is Dr. Ogunbanjo. He has over 13 years of experience and has joined Orleans Family Health Clinic. He is now accepting new patients.

If you've been without a family doctor, you can learn more at centrumpharmacy.com/get-a-physician or you can go straight to centrumpharmacy.com/waiting-list-form/ to submit a web form and we'll help get you matched.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments.

Good evening, r/OttawaRealEstate !

My name is Nick and I'm an active real estate agent in Ottawa with over a decade of experience. I've work in good old-fashioned resale but I have experience in pre-construction sales & purchasing, international relocations, leasing, syndications, flipping, commercial property management and everything in between. I'm also a past member of the Professional Standards & Ethics Committee (amongst others) for the Ottawa Real Estate Board. To date, we've helped over 500+ families buy in sell in the nations capital.

Here, I'll share real estate statistics from the past week, local RE news, my thoughts on real estate in Ottawa, the industry in general and most importantly answer your questions/discuss your thoughts on the market.

If you have any questions you'd like to keep confidential, feel free to contact me directly. My DMs are always open! If you don't want to miss out on any of our posts or conversations, give our account a follow.

A new global survey by financial services firm Remitly has ranked Ottawa as the best city in Canada for Gen Z residents, placing it 8th globally among 250 cities evaluated.

The study assessed factors such as affordability, safety, quality of life, youth unemployment, and cost of social activities.

Ottawa stood out for its high safety scores, strong quality of life, and relatively affordable lifestyle compared to other major Canadian cities.

Other Canadian cities ranked included Calgary, Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver, all positioned lower on the list.
