Mr. Bauco stated that Centreville Homes is in the process of developing approximately 650 units in the Salem and Hewitt's Secondary Plan. He commented that Centreville Homes wants to deliver these homes but has experienced many delays because of the COVID pandemic, the changes in real estate market, and the lending criteria from their Financial Institution. He explained that 100% of the units were sold, but some purchasers have now opted out of their contracts due to these delays, resulting in 65% of the units remaining.
