It is (finally) New Years eve! Just a few more hours until 2020 is over with!

A time to look back with admiration... A time to look forward with anticipation. Congratulations to all of those who celebrated milestone Years of Service anniversaries with Royal LePage in 2020.

An amazing $25,000 was raised by Royal LePage Team Realty agents, staff and the brokerage during our company wide holiday charitable giving campaign for 2020! In addition to this campaign, we know that so many of our agents donated directly to these or other organizations that are close to their hearts. The need is great in our communities this year, your contributions will make a huge difference in the lives of so many this holiday season. Thank you to our entire team for yo...ur incredibly generous spirit! Toy Mountain Ottawa Ottawa Food Bank Barrhaven Food Cupboard Harmony House Women's Shelter #andmanymore

Boxing Day will look a little different this year, with online orders and curbside pick-up being the primary way to shop for deals.

As we come into the fall, a lot of us will make an effort to support the local stores in our community. We can do this by shopping on their websites, safely making the trip to pick up what we need, buying gift cards. Writing online reviews for these businesses helps other people discover them too. We thought it would be a great idea to tag your favorite local shop in the comments so we can continue to support these businesses as they navigate this new way of shopping. Tag your favorite shop and let us know what you love about them
