Who we are

Neighbours, not a portal

barrhaven.homes is an independent guide to Barrhaven made by a small local team, Neighbourhood Homes, that builds websites for homes for sale.

It is not a brokerage and does not represent buyers or sellers.

How we work

Every fact links to its source: the City of Ottawa's open data, the Ottawa Neighbourhood Study, OC Transpo, the school boards, Wikidata, Wikipedia and OpenStreetMap.
Listing facts and prices come only from REALTOR.ca. Market statistics come from the Ottawa Real Estate Board, quoted with their date.
Neighbourhood photos are free-licence images from Wikimedia Commons, credited where they appear and listed below.
Distances are straight-line and say so. Time-sensitive facts such as transit openings, ward councillors and school catchments carry a date and a caveat.

For sellers

Get a website for your home

If your home has a for-sale sign, we can give it its own website: every photo, room sizes, the neighbourhood, schools, commute and open house, on an easy address like 123yourstreet.ca. It links into this guide, so buyers can see the whole area.

We build it first. A student from the neighbourhood shows you your home's finished site on an iPad. You decide if you want it.
You pay $50. We register a short address for your home and host the site while it is for sale.
Share it everywhere. Put the address on your sign rider, in your feature sheet and on social media.
When it sells, the address forwards to this hub's Sold page.

We use your listing's public REALTOR.ca information and photos only with the seller's or listing agent's permission.
