He has lived in Barrie for over 30 years and comes from a family of entrepreneurs and service industry professionals. Boomers on the Move

How is the market doing in Barrie and Simcoe County these days?

The last time we talked was 2022. “In 2021 and 2022 we went through a time of close to no inventory, which seems like

Of course, as we all know the balance between supply and demand… the supply was so small, the demand got very intense, and the prices went through the roof. That’s all in the rear view mirror now – it’s passed. We’re getting back to… I wouldn’t say normal levels of inventory, because they’re still below normal (by normal I mean 2019)… but they’re slowly starting to come back up…”

John Weber Sales Representative First Contact Realty Brokerage – In my family, service has always been a way of life.

When my father opened Webers on Highway # 11, north of Orillia, in 1963, he didn’t just offer delicious, high-quality food. He built a place where people felt welcomed, cared for, and totally at home.

Now, as an award-winning Barrie real estate agent, I help people feel more literally at home. It’s a different kind of business, but it boils down to many of the same things: communication, service, and a whole lot of hard work.
