Areas I serve
Stittsville real estate
Stittsville is a growing community next to Kanata in Ottawa's west end, with a historic main street and many newer neighbourhoods. I help buyers and sellers here.
Living in Stittsville
Stittsville is a suburban community in the west end of the City of Ottawa, just southwest of Kanata and about 20 km from downtown. It was part of Goulbourn Township before amalgamation in 2001. The village was founded in 1854, when Jackson Stitt became its first postmaster, and the original centre is still known as Old Stittsville.
Stittsville Main Street runs through the heart of the community, and the old rail line that once crossed it is now part of the Trans Canada Trail. Around the older core are many newer subdivisions, built as the area grew over the past few decades.
The community has its own branch of the Ottawa Public Library, parks, recreation facilities and shopping, and Kanata's larger stores and employers are close by. Rural Goulbourn is just to the south and west.
Buying a home in Stittsville
Stittsville buyers usually compare townhouses and detached homes in newer neighbourhoods with older homes closer to Main Street. New construction is also part of the market here. I can show you different builders and what is available, and explain the new-build HST credit before you sign.
Before you offer, you see recent comparable sales in Stittsville and nearby Kanata, so you know what the home is worth.
Selling your home in Stittsville
Your home competes with other resales and with new homes nearby. My written market analysis looks at both, and we set a price and plan in writing.
I market Stittsville homes to buyers searching both Stittsville and Kanata, and handle photos, MLS® exposure, showings and feedback.
Getting around
Highway 417 runs along the north side of Stittsville toward Kanata and central Ottawa. Hazeldean Road, Carp Road and Main Street are the main local routes, and OC Transpo serves the area.
Who I help in Stittsville
I help first-time buyers, growing families, people moving up or downsizing, and owners selling to move.

Real reviews from my Google Business Profile, quoted word for word.
As first time home buyers we are so fortunate to have been paired with Paul, his sound guidance, responsiveness and expertise helped us land the home of our dreams in a difficult market. We would have sat and waited too long to put in an offer had we not followed his advice. We had a lot of unknowns and each time one popped up Paul found answers SUPER quickly- even our insurance agent was impressed by his responsiveness. He did an amazing job helping us source reliable experts for the many inspections we had and was very impressive doing so on a short time frame. We are so grateful for all of Paul’s hard work, dedication, and negotiation skills. You can tell he's a people's person who loves what he does and is energized by the joy of helping people. Would recommend and would trust Paul again :) (He additionally got us some house warming gifts- included baby chickens! )

He treats you like family and is always honest and humble with his recommendations. My experience was absolutely amazing and I will call him on my next purchase for sure. I highly recommend him.
