With Vancouver and Toronto taxing foreign buyers who buy real estate, Ottawa has become an attractive Canadian city for foreign investors. Rockcliffe Park just east of downtown Ottawa is the home of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The average home sold for 1.5 million last year and rented for about $8,000 to $20,000 according to the TheRealDeal. Prices in the area have also increased by more than 7% with high demand from diplomatic and elected officials.
