Welcome to Essa!
Essa Township is the stretch of Simcoe County immediately west of Barrie, following the Nottawasaga River through farmland that turns into subdivision at Angus and back into farmland again. Angus is the township's largest community and sits next to CFB Borden, which gives Essa something almost no other market around here has: a steady posting cycle that moves families in and out on a schedule, alongside the usual Barrie commuter demand. South and east of that, Thornton, Baxter and Ivy are small crossroads communities on large lots, and the housing runs from new builds in Angus to century farmhouses on acreage. Prices here have historically sat below Barrie's for comparable space, which is much of the appeal. Parker Coulter Realty lists throughout the township, and the market figures below are the same board data we work from.

Essa HOMES FOR SALE
Selling in Essa for 1%
We list Essa homes for a 1% listing commission with full service included: professional photography, drone, staging assistance, 3D tour, floor plans, premium marketing, wide syndication, and our team on showings, offers and negotiation from start to close. There are no upfront fees and no cancellation fees — no fees whatsoever — and we only get paid when you get paid. The commission offered to the buyer's brokerage is separate from our 1%, and it is determined at the time of listing by you, the seller, with our guidance before you go to market. Our office is in Barrie, about twenty minutes from Angus, so Essa is home turf rather than an outpost.
