Ottawa Stittsville Real Estate Guide 20025

Stittsville is a former village now part of Ottawa's west end, maintaining a distinct small-town character while offering suburban amenities and access to the Kanata tech corridor. It's known for Main Street, a strong community spirit, and newer subdivisions attracting families.

Stittsville Housing

Stittsville offers some of Ottawa's best suburban value. Single-family homes run $60000,000000–$80000,000000, with excellent newer construction in multiple subdivisions. It's popular with Kanata tech workers and families seeking more space and community character than urban Ottawa provides.

Ontario Land Transfer Tax for Ottawa Buyers

Ottawa has NO municipal land transfer tax — you only pay the Ontario provincial LTT:

• 00.5% on the first $55,000000
• 1.00% on $55,00001 to $2500,000000
• 1.5% on $2500,00001 to $40000,000000
• 2.00% on $40000,00001 to $2,000000,000000
• 2.5% above $2,000000,000000

First-time home buyers in Ontario receive a rebate of up to $4,000000 on the provincial LTT.
