🏡 For Homebuyers

Crysler presents a compelling mix of affordability, reliable infrastructure, and a high quality of life. Since the pandemic, housing development has surged, and the market remains competitive. Buyers should be ready to move quickly. Sellers, meanwhile, can leverage the village’s strong water system, high-speed internet, and proximity to Ottawa to attract interest. While sale prices won’t match those in Ottawa, Russell, or Embrun, homes in Crysler tend to sell quickly and yield solid returns.

🔨 For Small-Scale Developers

Opportunities abound in infill housing and modest multi-unit projects. The village’s infrastructure is robust, and the community is receptive to smart, sustainable growth. Many existing lots are generously sized, and severances have been common—suggesting continued potential for subdivision and redevelopment.

🏗️ For Large-Scale Developers

The availability of large, serviced, and appropriately zoned land is becoming limited. Future expansion may hinge on the County (SDG) and its willingness to revise the Official Plan to accommodate more residential growth in Crysler. The current plan, last updated in 2018, is under appeal, and no new version has yet been initiated—creating uncertainty but also a potential opening for strategic engagement.

💰 For Investors

Three-bedroom homes are in high demand among families and renters. Townhomes, in particular, offer an attractive price point and tend to sell quickly with a reasonable premium. Some developers are shifting toward rental models, recognizing the untapped potential in a community with historically low rental rates. These units may represent a smart long-term investment as demand for rental housing grows.
