Barrie MLS® Sold Data

The city of Barrie has seen extensive growth over the past couple of decades, and it has become one of Canada’s fastest growing housing markets as the city tries to keep up with the housing demand. Located roughly an hour north of Toronto, Barrie has established itself as an industrial and agricultural hub. Property can be purchased in the city for much lower than Toronto or some other large cities, but you also get more for your money. There is a very healthy property inventory that includes single-family homes, condos and townhouses. With the increasing popularity of the city, property values are steadily rising annually as more buyers find out all that the area has to offer. Barrie has also become a popular commuter city, with buyers coming from Toronto, Vaughn and other cities in the GTA.
