Barrie Considered a Key Investment Location
According to the article Where to Buy Now, in the May 2008 edition of Moneysense Magazine, Barrie's economic outlook is outstanding. Each of Canada's 35 major cities was ranked for their appeal to real estate investors.
The market was analyzed by value, momentum and economic strength. Each city was assigned a letter grade in each of the three categories as well as an overall grade. Barrie was the only city to score an A+ in the economic strength category.
While no cities were awarded an overall A grade, Barrie falls within the top seven cities that were awarded an overall A-, ranked behind Regina, Saskatoon and Winnipeg.
