Barrie sits at the southern end of Lake Simcoe, an hour north of Toronto on Highway 400 and the northern terminus of the GO commuter line — the point where the GTA's commuter belt runs out. That position drove one of the sharpest price runs in Ontario during the pandemic and one of the sharpest corrections after it. The average sale price in the City of Barrie was $706,668, down 4.1% year-over-year, across 189 sales, up 5.3%. Those figures are from September 2025, and that date is the most important thing on this page.

The Barrie & District Association of REALTORS® has not published a municipal statistics update since September 2025. Payotte checked four separate sources on 10 August 2026 and none of them fills the gap: the BDAR statistics page remains frozen, and its own PDF archive is served behind a mismatched TLS certificate; TRREB does not cover Barrie at all, listing Simcoe County as Adjala-Tosorontio, Bradford, Essa, Innisfil and New Tecumseth; CREA folds Barrie & District into an aggregate of seven boards with no standalone page; and the commercial aggregators simply recopy the frozen BDAR figures. No MLS® HPI benchmark, no median, no inventory and no days-on-market figure is published for the city by anyone.

So this page shows an average price that is nearly a year old and says so plainly, rather than borrowing a Simcoe County figure and relabelling it Barrie. For context and not for substitution: across Simcoe County in September 2025 there were 440 sales, up 8.9%, at an average of $819,742, down 7.1%, with 1,560 new listings and 2,643 active. Anyone making a decision on Barrie today should treat every number here as historical and ask a local professional for the current month.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a house cost in Barrie?

The most recent published figure is an average sale price of $706,668 for the City of Barrie, down 4.1% year-over-year — but it dates from September 2025. The Barrie & District Association of REALTORS® has published no municipal update since, so no newer verified figure exists.

Why is Payotte showing an eleven-month-old figure for Barrie?

Because it is the only verified municipal figure that exists. Four sources were checked on 10 August 2026: the BDAR page is frozen at September 2025 and its PDF archive sits behind a mismatched TLS certificate, TRREB does not cover Barrie, CREA folds it into a seven-board aggregate, and the aggregators recopy BDAR. Rather than substitute a county figure or estimate a current one, Payotte publishes the last verified number and dates it.

Is there an MLS benchmark price for Barrie?

No. No benchmark, median, months-of-inventory or days-on-market figure is published for the City of Barrie by any board. The average sale price is the only municipal measure available, which is why it appears as the reference price on this page.

What about Simcoe County figures?

They exist but they are not Barrie. In September 2025 the county recorded 440 sales, up 8.9%, at an average of $819,742, down 7.1%, with 1,560 new listings and 2,643 active. That average sits more than $110,000 above Barrie's, which is exactly why Payotte cites it as context and never as a stand-in.

Is the Barrie market still correcting?

The last verified reading showed prices down 4.1% year-over-year while sales rose 5.3% — a market where volume was recovering faster than price. Whether that has continued through the eleven months since is not something Payotte can confirm from a verified source.
