About the Barry Plant franchise

The vision of the Barry Plant franchise is to become the most recognised real estate agency. Not through size, but by reputation for outstanding marketing, unsurpassed quality and dedication to service.

The real estate franchise was formed in July 1999 with the merger of two of Melbourne’s most respected real estate networks – Barry Plant Real Estate and E J Doherty Real Estate. Both groups had earned an enviable reputation over the years for consistently obtaining excellent results for their clients and providing outstanding service.

E J Doherty opened its doors in a small office in Coburg on 1 July 1958 and at the time of the merger with Barry Plant, it had a network of 16 offices located throughout the northern and north-western suburbs.

Because of the high regard in which the Barry Plant franchise is held within the industry, a number of highly professional real estate agencies in many parts of have joined the group since the merger, which has resulted in a network of more than 60 offices serving Melbourne's real estate needs.
