Tarion has awarded its annual Homeowners’ Choice Awards to builders who received the highest ratings from actual home buyers across the province.

• Kolody Homes of Lakeshore, Ontario– small volume category
• Talos Custom Homes Ltd, Ottawa – medium volume category
• Hayhoe Homes, St.Thomas, Ontario – large volume category
• Plazacorp Investments, Toronto – High-Rise Category
A new one-time honour – the Ernest Assaly Award – for an Ontario builder who demonstrates a commitment to building quality and innovation, customer service and community involvement, went to Tridel
“A new home is one of life’s biggest investments and that’s why it’s important to have it built by someone you can trust who understands your needs,” said Tarion president and CEO Howard Bogach.
The Homeowners’ Choice Awards are presented annually based on the results of surveys completed by new home buyers from across the province. For this year’s competition, Tarion polled more than 56,900 new home buyers asking them about their builder’s performance before, during and after they moved into their new home.
