Barrie Real Estate: Homes for Sale and Local Market Guide

Barrie sits on the shore of Kempenfelt Bay, about an hour north of Toronto along Highway 400, and it is the largest city in Simcoe County. Whether you are buying your first home, moving up, downsizing or selling, the 705 Realty team lives and works here and knows how each Barrie neighbourhood behaves.

Buying a home in Barrie

Barrie offers a wide mix of homes, from condos and townhomes near the waterfront and downtown to family homes in newer south-end communities and established neighbourhoods like Allandale, Holly, Painswick, Innishore and Ardagh. Buyers choose Barrie for the lake, the trails and parks, the shopping, and a commute that works by Highway 400 or the GO Transit rail line.

When you work with us, we set up listing alerts that match your budget and areas, tell you honestly what a home is worth, and negotiate hard so you buy with confidence.

Selling your Barrie home

Pricing a Barrie home correctly from day one is the biggest factor in how quickly it sells and for how much. We review recent local sales and current competition, prepare and market your home professionally, and guide you through offers and closing. Curious what your home could sell for?
