“Sam Barry provided us with exceptional service. Within minutes of meeting Sam we felt we could trust him to guide us in such an important step in our lives. He created a portal of homes tailored to exactly we wanted, and changed it as often as we changed our criteria. This made the initial searching phase so easy.
No matter what house we wanted to see or when we wanted to see it he made it happen. He drove all over the city helping us find our perfect home.
When it came to closing he was extremely thorough and efficient and made sure everything went off without a hitch.
His honesty and genuine nature made for speedy and enjoyable process and he always had us feeling hopeful and assured. Sam is extremely professional and down to earth – he was there to help us find our dream home and it was evident!
We will definitely be using his services again should we ever decide to move. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!”

– Shawn Duggan
“As first time home buyers, the whole experience of buying a house was exciting, nerve-wracking and intimidating. But working with Sam, he made it fun and far less stressful. He asked the right questions to help understand what it was we were looking for (even when we weren’t sure ourselves!) and he only showed us houses he knew we’d be interested in and that were in our price range. He helped guide us through the whole process from start to finish and we could not be happier with our new home! And if we ever decide to sell, we know we’ll be contacting Sam!”
– Holly Duggan
“We were very impressed with many aspects of working with Sam. We felt that he really wanted us to be satisfied with our purchase and not just trying to sell a house
He really took the time to understand our needs, and at no point did we ever feel that we were being pressured in any other direction.
When we viewed a property with him, he looked very carefully and thoroughly through the property and helped us to identify any possible future problem areas. His experience and knowledge showed in what he was able to highlight for us and his understanding of the buying process.
Finally, he was always prompt and prepared for all of our viewings and meetings. I would highly recommend working with Sam to anyone.”
– Peter Atkinson

“We used Locke Real Estate for both the sale and purchase of our home and had a great experience. Our Realtor Sam Barry gave us great advice about the area and current market. He’s also very knowledgable about home improvements and we appreciated his insight when viewing homes. When it came time to buy and sell our home he was very organized and efficient. We received practical advice about staging and our house sold in 3 days. I would definitely recommend Locke to anyone buying or selling in Ottawa.”
– Rachel Carrara
“It had been 10 years since I’d bought a house and I’d never sold one before. Sam and the rest of the Locke Real Estate team helped sell my house in 1 day for full asking price. They also helped me find houses that might interest me very quickly and conveniently with e-mail alerts.
Sam was professional, warm, available, reliable, punctual, and knowledgeable. We know who to go to now for all our real estate needs. Thanks for all your help!”
– Serge Binette
“Samual Barry is an awesome Real Estate Agent. He has helped us buy 2 different properties now and I would never consider using anyone else. He has extensive experience in both the construction industry and the real estate industry, and so is able to spot issues or weaknesses in the construction and condition of houses, and he is not afraid to point them out to his buyers. He took the time to learn exactly what our wants and needs were for the properties we were buying, and went out of his way to find properties that matched those. He took us to so many properties, and never lost patience with our pickiness. He was always on time for showings, and was very quick to respond to our texts and inquiries. Sam is very professional and just an overall nice guy as well. After we bought our first property from him he actually paid for a guided Muskie fishing trip for us. I highly recommend Samual Barry for all your real estate needs.”
– Linda Stengel
“Sam was the most kind and knowledgable real estate agent I could’ve hoped for for my first home buying experience. He was helpful without ever being pushy. He always listened thoroughly to what I wanted and delivered 100%.

We found our house and were able to close quickly, even moving up our closing date, thanks to a concerted effort of our agents. It was a great experience working with Locke Real Estate!”

“My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Joëlle Allaire and Sam Berry. We thought our house would be a hard sale since we had been on the market with absolutely no movement. We decided to try Locke Real Estate after being referred by friends and family. It was a great decision because only 2 months and a bit it was SOLD. Both Joëlle and Sam communicated with us and gave regular updates. They negotiated with what we wanted and we ended up very happy in the end. I recommend them both if you are looking for agents.”

Also he never push us for an offer or never complain to see a house. Thank you Samuel!”

“We started the process of selling our house by interviewing three real estate agents and we chose Samuel Barry (Locke Real Estate) to be our agent. We had a great experience; Samuel is an excellent agent who really cares about his client. He is thorough and professional and really nice to work with, always a phone call away and available to answer our questions. We never felt pressured, the process was smooth and stress free.

We highly recommend Samuel and the Locke team, their service is exceptional, they are bilingual, which was a big plus for us, everyone we met and dealt with was really nice and friendly. To sell our house Samuel provided staging, professional photos and a 360 video.
Merci beaucoup Samuel pour ton aide avec la vente de notre maison et avec la recherche d’un nouveau domicile. Nous avons bien apprécié ta patience et ton expertise. Ton expérience a été extrêmement précieuse pour nous et nous n’aurions pas pu réussir sans toi!”

“My mom had the amazing support of Samuel Barry as her realtor while looking to downsize from a house to a condo. He never made her feel rushed while looking, and gave great advice when it came down to the location of the condo vs. the value. Catherine Joyce was also very helpful with advice and support, as my mom had worked with her previously with other home purchases. Catherine and Sam worked as a team, which resulted in my mom finding the condo that was perfect for her and met all of her needs. Thank you both so much for all your help!”

“We 100% recommend Sam and Cathy. They were by our sides for buying and selling and made the experience as flawless and easy as possible. In today’s aggressive sellers market, they were responsive, attentive, patient and reassuring. Because of their awesome negotiation, staging and people skills, we were successful in a multiple offer situation and also sold our home after only one weekend of showings.
De plus, nous cherchions des agents bilingues et Sam pouvait bien communiquer avec nous autant en français qu’en anglais. Bref, nous sommes très très heureux et satisfaits et recommendons sans aucune hésitation leurs services!”

“I recently SOLD my Condo through Locke Real Estate, I had asked Sam Barry to represent me as my Agent and I was very happy with my choice. It was a great experience right from the start. Sam was very informative about the market and always provided his expert opinion on any of my questions. I found Sam very respectful of what I wanted and of the choices I made throughout the process. I felt he was supporting me each step of the way (with the staging of my home, the photographers he chose to take such beautiful photos and a 360 tour video of my home, he explained how the showings would work etc.. Sam was very happy and almost as excited as me when we signed the final Offer. I would definitely recommend Sam and Locke Real Estate if you are thinking of selling your property!
