This trend is occuring through most of North America but the fact that it's now in full force in Ottawa where there is a limited number of properties available, means that only the people who act fast get the good stuff. 

For those buyers looking for downtown properties who are simply checking for houses on the public multiple listing site they are usually out of luck because the good properties are often sold before they show up there. 

Make sure that you have some one checking the system for you all the time in an automated way and that you are setup to receive complete listing details via email with the latest properties as they are entered into the system.

Those that are setup on the automated email system will initially receive a list like the one below that matches their particular criteria and then will receive a similar listing via email the instant a new property becomes is entered onto the system.
