OTTAWA + GATINEAU OPPORTUNITY
One Market. Two Provinces.
One Brokerage.
Join an interprovincial real estate brokerage in Ottawa, uniquely positioned across the Ottawa–Gatineau market. Sutton Group – Ottawa Realty and Sutton GO create a rare interprovincial opportunity for agents who want to grow their business across Ontario and Quebec.
the ottawa-gatineau advantage
The National Capital Region is one of the only real estate markets in Canada where two provinces operate within a single metropolitan area. Buyers and sellers move between Ottawa and Gatineau every year, creating unique opportunities for real estate professionals.
Agents working within a real estate brokerage in Ottawa that understands this interprovincial dynamic can expand their reach, build stronger referral networks, and serve clients exploring properties on both sides of the river.
licensing requirements
Working Across Ontario and Quebec
Because Ontario and Quebec have separate real estate regulatory systems, agents must hold the appropriate licence for each province in which they wish to trade real estate.
Ontario agents who want to work directly in Gatineau must complete the Quebec licensing process through the OACIQ. This additional step allows real estate professionals to fully participate in the interprovincial market and serve clients on both sides of the river.
For agents looking to grow within a real estate brokerage in Ottawa, this creates a strategic path to expand beyond Ontario and build a stronger presence across the National Capital Region.
