The Khouri Group · Our proposed strategy
List 710 Rouncey Road at $1,249,000. Target an agreement with the buyer’s conditions resolved in weeks 2 to 6 after launch, then complete closing in less than three months from launch.
742 Brittanic Road, the same Shire model, sold for $1,286,000 in February 2025. The selected 2026 sales include lower results. At the October 14 snapshot, 149 Groningen Street was for sale at $1,199,000 with park backing. Its asking price is not a completed sale.
The size, finished lower level and amenities support the offering. Street exposure, limited privacy and more traditional finishes constrain the premium. Upgrade spending is not added to comparable sale prices.
Prepare the complete launch, make showings easy and report back after 72 hours and at day 7. If qualified response is weak, reassess price promptly against current competition.
Recommended launch asking price
A recommendation based on comparable research and Charles’s in person assessment of the home. It is an asking strategy, not a proven sale value.
The sale and rental records were prepared October 14, 2026. Recheck available listings, remaining property details and the exact closing deadline before launch. The asking price is not a guaranteed selling price.
This sales comparison includes eleven completed sales from 2025 and 2026, plus one home listed for sale. The additional 742 Brittanic Road sale is the same model comparison. Rental properties appear in their own section below.
Descriptive statistics only. These are unadjusted sales across different homes and dates, not a valuation of 710 Rouncey Road.

Source: the supplied comparable market analysis (CMA) and MLS listing records, prepared October 14, 2026, plus the 742 Brittanic Road sale record. Listings are a dated snapshot, not a live feed. *Area above ground excludes the basement; measurement sources differ. A bedroom count such as 4+1 means four above ground and one listed below ground. For 149 Groningen, the record shows 13 days on the current listing and 83 total marketing days. Missing total marketing time is not treated as zero.
The same builder and model, very similar reported size and almost identical lot dimensions. This is a strong physical comparison, although its sale is from February 2025.

Source: OREB September 2026 report, PDF pages 4 and 16. A benchmark estimates the price of a typical home in that category. Average and median prices also depend on which homes sold. These Ottawa totals do not measure the value of 710 Rouncey or a price change specific to Blackstone.
September sales: 1,010, down 6.6% annually. Active listings: 4,813, up 7.9%. Supply at the recorded sales pace: 4.8 months versus 4.1 a year earlier.
Median selling time: 27 days versus 22. Average sale to list ratio: 97.5% versus 98.1%. These averages describe completed sales and exclude properties that did not sell.
Ottawa Suburb West sales fell 14.3% annually in August. Its sales to new listings ratio moved from 51.9% in August to 40.7% in September; inventory moved from 3.6 to 3.7 months.
The west region still sold its available inventory faster than OREB’s other regions in September. These figures cover all home types across a broader area than Emerald Meadows / Trailwest.

|---|---|---|---|
| 429 Gidran CircleSold May 5, 2026 | $1,175,000 | $1,175,000 sold · at asking | 12 days on market. An upgraded home found a buyer at its recorded asking price. |
| 165 Groningen StreetSold August 10, 2026 | $1,099,000 | $1,050,000 sold · 4.46% below asking | 11 days on market. A short listing period still involved a $49,000 difference from asking. |
| 149 Groningen StreetActive snapshot · October 14, 2026 | $1,199,000 | Sale result unknown | 13 days on the current listing; 83 total marketing days reported. The current listing’s age does not show the full marketing history. |
Sources: supplied MLS sheets, PDF pp. 5 and 6, 13 and 14, 21 and 22. The two completed 2026 area 9010 sales here are a selected comparable sample, not the full neighbourhood market. Differences between these homes are not evidence of an annual price decline.
Separate asking price cuts from the additional negotiation at sale. These examples are in Stittsville, outside area 9010.

Calculated from original asking, final asking and sold price in the supplied MLS records, PDF pp. 11 and 12, 15 and 16, 17 and 18. These are differences between recorded price points, not a full price change history. They do not establish that overpricing caused the selling time or that market values fell by these percentages.
This table compares the proposed $1,249,000 asking price for 710 Rouncey with each reference property’s recorded sale or asking price. The dollar gaps are comparisons, not calculated values for individual upgrades.
| Reference property | Reported price | 710 Rouncey ask vs. reference | How to use the comparison |
|---|---|---|---|
| 742 Brittanic RoadSame Mattamy Shire model · February 2025 | $1,286,000 sold | $37,000 below | Very similar size and lot. Rouncey has a finished lower level and pool package, with limited backyard privacy. The older date, different garage configuration, backyard privacy and street exposure require consideration. |
| 156 Finsbury Avenue ELarge home with finished basement · September 2025 | $1,260,000 sold | $11,000 below | Larger reported above ground area, additional bedrooms and no rear neighbours. An upper physical comparison with an older sale date. |
| 429 Gidran CircleLocal sale · May 2026 | $1,175,000 sold | $74,000 above | Rouncey is 583 sq. ft. larger using supplied figures, has more bathrooms, a finished lower level and an outdoor pool package. Gidran has a premium corner lot. |
| 149 Groningen StreetListed for sale in the October 14 records | $1,199,000 asking | $50,000 above | Rouncey is 577 sq. ft. larger above ground using supplied figures. Groningen offers park backing and a deeper lot, a meaningful setting advantage over Rouncey’s overlooked yard. Buyer preferences determine the tradeoff. |
Price gaps are arithmetic, not formal valuation adjustments. Rouncey’s 3,715 sq. ft. is the builder model area; comparable area sources differ. No property has been remeasured.
A large Shire with loft, a finished entertainment level, an additional bathroom and a substantial pool / hot tub package distinguish the offering from smaller or unfinished alternatives.
921 Beckton’s $1,555,000 September 2026 sale had a much larger lot and designer improvements. It is an upper reference for a different offering, not a direct target.
Charles has assessed the street exposure in person and identifies it as a drawback. Close neighbouring homes overlook the yard. These are meaningful disadvantages beside park backing or no rear neighbour properties.
Darker wood cabinetry and flooring, a patterned backsplash and upstairs carpet may prompt cosmetic updates for buyers seeking contemporary finishes. A design premium is not assumed. Pool upkeep can also narrow the audience.
Built in November 2019. Mattamy Shire with loft, CR elevation (exterior design). The marketing will focus on the family space, finished basement and installed amenities.
Sell the space and functionality. Let current competition set the limits on price.
*The supplied Mattamy Shire brochure states 3,715 sq. ft. Verify the actual floor area, dimensions, bedroom and bathroom counts before MLS entry. Four above ground bedrooms and five total bathrooms are used as working property details. The owner identifies the home as the Shire with loft, elevation CR, and confirms a heated double car garage.
Four upper bedrooms, two private ensuites, a shared Jack and Jill bathroom, upper laundry and a loft. Main floor living, dining, family and office spaces support different routines.
Recreation space with a wet bar, a theatre room described as soundproofed, an exercise area and a full bathroom.
Heated inground pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen and extensive interlock. The yard is overlooked by close neighbouring homes and offers limited privacy. A heated driveway and heated double car garage add winter convenience.
Proposed buyer focus: growing families, buyers seeking separate work and recreation spaces, and households who value a pool and established outdoor improvements. Confirm equipment condition and sale inclusions before listing.
The owner reports $1.2 million in additional upgrades, beyond $200,000 in builder upgrades. These costs explain the features; they do not establish resale value.
Custom automatic blinds, hardwood main floor, hardwood staircase with runner, 9 ft. ceilings with coffered detailing, 8 ft. doors, built in speakers and an alarm system.
Mattamy Shire with loft, elevation CR. Bedrooms two and three share a Jack and Jill bathroom.
Media room, finished recreation area with wet bar, lower level bathroom with radiant heated floor, and a sauna with LED red light feature.
Confirm installed equipment and inclusions.
Oxygenated pool, hot tub with an owner reported cost of $44,000, outdoor draft beer system, outdoor kitchen and substantial landscaping and interlock.
Heated driveway, heated double car garage, epoxy garage floor and insulated garage door.
Our full service listing program combines professional media, broad buyer exposure, a staging consultation and coordination through closing. The launch and reporting schedule below is tailored to 710 Rouncey Road.
Use local comparable sales and current competition to set the launch strategy. Negotiate price, deposit, financing, conditions, included items and closing dates with the sellers’ timing in view.
Provide a staging consultation on furniture placement, decluttering, lighting and presentation. Coordinate cleaning and practical preparation, with any supplier work, cost and timing agreed before booking.
Professional interior and exterior photography, cinematic video and reels, twilight and drone imagery, and digital floor plans. Present the Shire layout, entertainment level and outdoor features accurately.
Launch on MLS, REALTOR.ca and listing portals, the dedicated property website, buyer database and email, targeted paid advertising and social campaigns. Include Carriage Trade luxury exposure in the marketing plan.
Coordinate private showings and open houses, prepare feature sheets, reach out to relevant agents and follow up with buyers. Turn feedback into clear recommendations at the 72 hour and day 7 reviews.
Coordinate handyman and moving arrangements, connect sellers with relevant professionals, and track documents and condition deadlines with their lawyer through closing. Keep communication focused on decisions and completion.
Clear reporting. Timely decisions.
Staging consultation only; furniture rental and installation excluded. Agree on supplier charges, added work and commission terms before proceeding. Price and timing are not guaranteed.
You will know what we are doing, what buyers are saying and when a decision is needed. Set the calendar backwards from your required closing date.
Confirm the exact completion date and seller authority. Use Charles’s in person assessment of the street exposure in the pricing discussion. Finalize the property facts, inclusion list, launch price and marketing package. Coordinate with the sellers’ lawyer.
Launch the full package, respond promptly and collect showing feedback. Give you a written 72 hour update on activity and objections.
Meet at day 7 to review inquiries, showings, feedback, offers and new competition. Recommend a clear next step, including a price change if warranted.
Aim to have a signed agreement and the buyer’s conditions resolved in weeks 2 to 6. Closing is the later completion of the sale. Preserve enough time to close before the agreed deadline; these are targets, not promised results.
A timely closing is the objective. Price, conditions and the buyer’s ability to complete all matter.
Review financing and inspection conditions, deposit, closing date, inclusions and the buyer's ability to perform alongside price. These are planning targets, not guarantees. Set the actual calendar once the required completion date is confirmed. No commission terms have been assumed.
This is a separate choice from selling. Renting provides monthly income while you keep ownership; it does not deliver the proceeds of a sale.
Proposed whole home rental
Ask $4,500 per month plus utilities, unfurnished. Working expectation: $4,300 to $4,500, subject to fresh competition and final inclusions.
718 Brittanic Road rented for $4,000 per month; 137 Shelleright Street rented for $4,700. Rouncey’s finished basement supports asking more than 718 Brittanic, while its finishes, setting and upkeep limit the case for matching Shelleright.
Suggested rental asking price
Entire home, unfurnished, plus utilities. Confirm inclusions and service arrangements.
$54,000 gross annually at 12 fully paid months. Before vacancy, mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, leasing, repairs and servicing. The amount left after expenses has not been calculated.

Source: supplied rental MLS sheets, October 14, 2026. Four leases and two active asking rents; all amounts monthly in Canadian dollars. Dates are agreement dates, not move in dates. Days on market refers to that listing; total marketing time is shown separately where reported. Area sources differ and are unverified. Rental records are excluded from sale statistics.
The proposed $4,500 monthly ask is $500 above 718 Brittanic’s rent and $200 below 137 Shelleright’s rent. These gaps do not assign a specific value to the pool or other features; no supplied rental has a pool.
Review qualified response at day 7; consider $4,300 if the evidence supports it. Screen applicants before acceptance.
Confirm financing, owner consents and the holding period. If the sale deadline remains, keep selling as the primary route.
Confirm the full monthly ownership costs, insurance, amenity servicing and lawful lease terms before choosing this route.
The research supports a clear starting strategy. Confirm the remaining facts, agree on the decision points and prepare the launch together.
This presentation combines Charles Khouri’s in person property assessment and photographs with the supplied property notes, photographed Mattamy Shire brochure, garage reference image, Google exterior screenshot and walkthrough videos. The brochure states 3,715 sq. ft.; this is a model reference, not a verified as built measurement. The owner identifies the configuration as Shire with loft, elevation CR. Confirm the physical details before publishing MLS representations.
The Khouri Group seller guide, “khouri-sell-your-home.pdf”, 12 pages, supplied October 15, 2026. The service overview and included services list on pages 2, 3, 6 and 7 inform the media, marketing and concierge plan. For this proposal, staging is limited to a consultation, as confirmed by Charles. Supplier costs and the final listing agreement remain to be confirmed.
“rouncey-comps.pdf”, 2 pages, and “rouncey-comps-mls-pages.pdf”, 22 pages. Prepared October 14, 2026. Ten sold listings and one active listing. MLS pairs: Beckton pp. 1 and 2; 156 Finsbury pp. 3 and 4; Gidran pp. 5 and 6; Reliance pp. 7 and 8; Hawks Landing pp. 9 and 10; Aridus pp. 11 and 12; 165 Groningen pp. 13 and 14; Osterley pp. 15 and 16; 152 Finsbury pp. 17 and 18; Malahat pp. 19 and 20; 149 Groningen pp. 21 and 22.

“brittanic-mls.pdf”, 2 pages. MLS® X11946684, 742 Brittanic Road. Sold price $1,286,000; sale date February 3, 2025; list price $1,250,000; 4 days on market. Size is 3,706 sq. ft. per remarks. Included in the eleven sale statistics. The supplied MLS record is used in preference to incomplete public web extracts.
“rouncey-rental-comps.pdf”, 12 pages, prepared October 14, 2026. Four leased records and two active asking rents are displayed separately from the sale evidence. The $4,500 monthly asking recommendation and $4,300 to $4,500 working range are an interpretation of the supplied comparables, not a guaranteed rent. Rental inclusions, current availability, service costs, financial feasibility and tenancy terms require confirmation. The Ontario standard lease guide supports the tenancy continuation note.
The supplied property notes, photographs by Charles Khouri and his in person assessment of the home, identify the Shire with loft, elevation CR, upgrade investment and features, the limited backyard privacy, and a target sale timeline of less than three months. Confirm current condition, floor area, inclusions, pool and heated surface systems, basement room use and garage capacity. The owner confirms a heated double car garage. The builder brochure illustrates a tandem option. Verify the current configuration on site, along with basement room use, total bathroom count and any bedroom egress requirements. No total finished area or verified fifth bedroom is promoted here. Hardwood plank width is unclear in the supplied notes and is intentionally left for measurement. Equipment and chattel inclusions, operating condition and upgrade costs require confirmation. Beckton's structured basement fields and remarks conflict; 156 Finsbury's area differs between fields and remarks. These are identified rather than silently reconciled.
Shire brochure photographed by Charles Khouri, marked 3,715 sq. ft. Confirm the actual layout and measurement basis before MLS entry. Brochure elevations and options are illustrative.

All amounts are Canadian dollars. Information is believed to be accurate but is not guaranteed. Measurements and property features require verification. Sold and active records reflect the supplied snapshots. The main exterior screenshot was provided by Charles Khouri and is based on Google imagery. The displayed version was digitally edited to remove vehicles and brighten the weather. Property photographs and selected video frames have been digitally enhanced for exposure, colour and clarity. The builder brochure is reproduced as a source reference. The builder brochure, garage references and current interior photographs were supplied October 14, 2026. Charles took the property photographs and visited and assessed the home in person. Measurements, equipment operation and technical details still require confirmation. Private seller discussion only.
