Many of my mortgage clients are military families just like my family! I polled military families for their top tips for being posted to major military bases across Canada.
Top 5 Tips for Posting to Ottawa
- This can be a busy posting with many members/families coming and going; stay on top of the whole process as to not get lost in the shuffle.
- Carleton Place commuter coach takes approximately one hour, being a good time option for commuting and replacement for a car payment.
- There are military positions all over the area, pick where you want to live based on the community and schools, as you may get moved to another area of the city for work.
- Buses can be important for getting around, get to know the routes and system.
- Many great activities for the whole family - art, theatre, outdoors - and easy road trip to tons of other great cities such as Toronto and Montreal.
Would love to hear from you! No question is too small. Reach out anytime!
