Emily and her team were outstanding to work with in the sale of my home. They didn’t miss a detail staging my home, the beautiful photography and videography of the home captured the unique space and brought in multiple offers in hours of listing it. The Barry Team always responded quickly, were very accommodating and professional, yet personable. I highly recommend working with The Barry Team. A special thank you to Emily, Joe, Angeleen and Jennifer. I look forward to working together again soon!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Emily and her amazing team. She is dedicated and appreciated her expertise with selling our home. Right from the start with Emily visiting us for the first time, she was fully prepared. Joe did such a professional video and photos of our property. There is nothing negative I can say about our experience, we thank them very much for everything!

My experience with Lea and The Barry Team when selling my mother’s house was both informative and timely. We were selling as the market was shifting in March 2022 and felt that we were one step ahead of the curve thanks to Lea and Emily. Their advice, guidance and performance ensured that we understood the sales process and had clear expectations. We ended up selling in a quicker timeframe than expected for more than list price! I would definitely recommend Lea and The Barry Team to any of my friends and family in the future. Thanks Lea! - Carol & Andrew

I had the pleasure working with Matt Vescia and the Barry team, with the purchase of my first home. Matt was very professional, punctual and took the time to explain how things worked. Just under two months working with Matt, we were able to find something that fit my budget and desired location.
The process was smooth and easy, and Matt made sure things were on schedule.
Would highly recommend the Barry team and Matt Vescia to buy or sell your home.

I and my fiancee recently moved into our new home and it honestly would not have been possible without Lea.

From scheduling multiple home showings to providing insights on what to look for as well as a very smooth application, Lea was amazing all through.

We are so excited to have worked with Lea in finding our new home. We have now found our favorite realtor as well as a new friend:)

We are first time homebuyers who worked with Charles from the Barry Team, to purchase our first home. He was there every step of the way to guide us and answer any questions we had. He is extremely knowledgeable and puts his Clients first!

We had a wonderful experience with Lea and the team. She's an amazing agent and rented out our properties in a professional timely manner. She has attention to detail and was always there to guide us through the process. She goes above and beyond and couldn't ask for more. Great job!

My partner and I were looking to rent in the Thorold/Falls area and where having no luck getting realtors to respond to enquiries for viewings. Lea was one of the very few realtors who actually responded, and provided us with some tips and tricks before offering to help us in our search. She was a tremendous help with finding suitable properties, setting up viewings, and once we settled on a property we loved she handled all of the interactions with the landlord. Lea was fantastic to work with and kept our best interests her top priority. Once we're looking to buy we'll definitely work with Lea again!

My experience working with Lea from the Barry Team was exceptional! Lea was professional, relatable, friendly and went out of her way to make sure our family got the house that was right us. I absolutely recommend working with The Barry team, specifically Lea. You will not be disappointed! 10/10 would recommend

From the first encounter of Charles Plante, was amazing. We had terrible experiences with other realtors and Charles and the Barry team, made me feel welcome and taken care of. He had been fighting for me and on my side 100% of the time. Best agent in my entire life!

Very happy with our experience working with Mathew Vecia. From the initial phone call to the close of the transaction Mathew was honest, focused, dedicated, diligent and methodical. He brings a wealth of information and a genuine happy to help attitude. I will certainly engage Mathew on my next transaction and would encourage others to as well.

Our realtor Aly Florez Restrepo was nothing but top tier while helping us purchase our first home. She understood that this was a new experience for us and helped us every step of the way, going above and beyond! Matthew Vecia of the Barry Team also worked with us and was accommodating while showing us houses and very knowledgeable on housing structures and properties. I highly recommend working with either from The Barry Team!

Shelby is a Rockstar! I could not imagine house hunting without her. We had to buy and sell and she made everything come together so smoothly. She hustles and is always there to answer any questions. We've recommended her to several friends who have also used her services. Her energy is always a 10 and her passion for real estate is always present!
30 December 2022 10:26
Working with The Barry Team was truly the best experience! Charles Plante went above and beyond, showing what a difference caring about your clients really means. There was a few bumps and hiccups along the way because of personal things that came up that I couldn't have gotten through without the help of Charlie and his team. I sold my house in less than a week and found my new house for an amazing price. Don't know where I'd be without the help of The Barry Team and I will be recommending them to everyone I know, sincerely.

I had an excellent experience selling my home with Emily.
Her and her team have a "get it done" attitude, and I recieved a literal perfect offer for my home. Sold in the $1.4m range, and i'd trust her to sell any of my properties in the future, or buy with her. I'm always skeptical of realestate agents, and i'm very cynical in general (being an international executive i've seen it all), but know I got my value working with Emily, and I have no complaints about her service.

Wow! Lea Sousa made purchasing our first home such a breeze! As first-time homebuyers, we thought we'd have to settle on a starter home but Lea helped us secure a home that met all of our needs, wants and even a few wishlist items – and most importantly – within our budget! Lea was extremely responsive, very knowledgable, and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. Even when she was out of town during our conditional period, she made sure we were well taken care of and represented by her equally awesome colleague, Alejandra Florez Restrepo. It was such a pleasure working with Lea and Aly – they are fantastic realtors who made buying our first home as stress-free as possible! Thanks again ladies!:)

Bought new Home. Literally is falling apart and builder was screened by realtor. I have whole closets. Bathroom vanities falling off the walls.held on my screws with no anchors. Please beware and do your homework.all talk!
08 October 2022 6:04
We have bought 18 homes in our lifetime and by far Emily Barry has been the worst realtor to deal with. She represented the buyer us and the seller the builder. After closing questions were screened and we weren’t allowed to ask the builder any questions
She Did not represent the buyer at all
Drainage problems, fridge problems and the closet shelving wasn’t anchored correctly so it started to come out of the wall. Then the whole bathroom vanity just fell onto the floor. Never happened to us in 60 years. Wasn’t attached to the wall correctly. Particle board cheaply done. 2 million plus new home we were assured any issues would be fixed the builder would come by, Instead we were told no you can’t ask that of the builder. Once she has the deal there is nonexistent customer service. Stay away

We recently purchased a home with Mat. We are moving to the area from out of town and he was very helpful and accommodating in booking showings. Mat took the time to get know us, asked lots of questions to understand what we were looking for and was very knowledgeable. And, he is just a great person! We truly enjoyed our experience, made it so painless and helped us to find our dream home. Thanks Mathew!

Our family have had the pleasure of working with Emily 3 times now and each experience has been great.
I have sold two houses with her and she makes the process easy to navigate. The staging, pictures and videos are always above and beyond what you can expect from your own home. Emily has great attention to detail, she and her team keeps you informed and is available to answer any of your questions.
When buying with Emily she looks at the place through your eyes and points out things you may miss, good and bad.
The Barry team are amazing to work with and I cannot recommend them enough. If you are buying or selling you will be blown away with their friendliness and professionalism.

Emily and her team were great to work with. Emily exceeded our expectations on selling our house.
When we first met Emily, she was on time, prepared with details on our property and spent time with us discussing the potential sale of our home.
Once we signed with her, she was professional and attentive. We felt like we were her only client.
When we were looking for a house to purchase we were paired with Mathew Vecia. Mathew was eager to attend each showing with us and spent as much time afterwards discussing the property, working on purchase agreements and continuing the search for our next home.
The home buying process was long, stressful and very emotional. Mathew did a great job on keeping our spirits up.
We also interacted with a few other members of The Barry Team, and they were all pleasant, professional and easy to work with.
If you are considering selling your home or looking to make your first purchase, call The Barry Team. They will not disappoint.

We had a great opportunity to work with Alejandra when buying our home in Niagara region. Not only she helped us to buy it, but actually she was the one to find it for us after talking to us and viewing a couple random houses. She was able to discover our tastes snd wishes to find the dream house for us! I highly recommend Alejandra, she is very professional, not to mention her great personality!
22 May 2022 2:02
Both Emily and Lea have been amazing and VERY accommodating to us through this whole process! From making sure we understood every step, to the friendly and personal touches as we made our way through we couldn't ask for more of anyone!

Anyone considering selling, renting or buying a home should at least take the time to talk with this team first! They will make sure that you don't miss any details and you get the best possible (& least stressful) experience that can be had!

You know you're getting excellent customer service when your Real Estate Agent calls you on her wedding vacation!

Alejandra was our Real Estate Agent and as a result, we now call her a friend!

And YES, on her first night away on her wedding destination vacation, she called us to act quickly about a potential house bid. She went back and forth between us and the other agent until her actual wedding night! If that isn't dedication, I don't know what is!

Dealing with the current Real Estate market, we really needed someone who had grit, who was knowledgeable on how to bid for homes and who acted quickly, not only to show us homes but to bid quickly if necessary.

Alejandra went above and beyond in EVERY one of these aspects.

I admit, she had it hard. We had a very specific list of house demands, and a very specific budget. (Plus, one of us was a very picky person who started to wonder if the dream was possible)

But we felt that she was right there with us! Feeling the roller coaster of excitement, and disappointment depending on the day. Nevertheless, she kept pushing us on!

Between her honesty, her optimism and her drive and dedication, we eventually found our perfect dream home! AND at an even better price than we could hope for! (Which in this housing market says ALOT)

Thanks Alejandra! You made our new home dream a reality!

Always Professional with our purchases and guide us in the right direction. We can always trust the Barry Team!

Great marketing! Videos was amazing! Bought and sold our house with Jon Cain he made the transactions experience so easy. Very professional. Boom, Barry Team
28 March 2021 8:17
Having worked with Emily Barry and the Barry team to purchase and sell properties for us we would highly recommend them. Emily and her team are truly there for their clients. Looking forward to working with Emily again for future real estate needs.
05 March 2021 16:51
The most unprofessional real estate I have ever encountered! If you want to give away your money then go with them because that's all they want to do is take your money and move on to the next deal! So disappointing!

My wife and I were the first customers of the Barry Team way way back when Emily first started in real estate. She sold my home and my mother's home in very short order when another real estate agent had my home listed for 6 months prior and couldn't even produce 1 offer at the same asking price. Emily took care of us. Then she got her 2nd customers, my mother and father-in-law and she helped them sell their house and purchase their new one. We used Emily's services a second time a few years later when she sold a 4th home for me or my family members. Nobody works harder, she canvassed the surrounding neighbourhoods and offered flyers showing how these homes could be purchased for less per month than what local renters were paying for their rented homes. Incredible results, if you are looking for incredible results contact the Barry Team, that is what they deliver.

My experiences continue to be exceptional working with Emily and her team, they're very professional and efficient throughout the entire real estate transaction. Always highly responsive and available when needed!

Wonderful service when we sold our house in St. Catharines and purchased a condominium in Niagara Falls. Especially helpful in negotiating the competing offers on our house sale.
02 April 2018 22:08
I cannot say enough about The Barry Team. They really care about giving you the best possible outcome - a classy, hard working bunch. I recommend them to everyone.

Great service when we sold our home in St. Catharines and bought a town home in Niagara Falls. Emily is a terrific realtor, the best!
