It is so wired!
It is hard to understand why the price increases so fast .
As I know, There are around 100,000 people move out Ottawa,and about 100,000 people moved in Ottawa in 2007.
So how come the price goes so fast? it is not about the people. It may be about the material and labour cost.
But it is not reasonable, So I believe it is the builders' games.
They can increase the price first, and then give you a discount. You may feel better. In fact, you pay more money at the same time.
