Absolutely disgusted with my experience with this company. If you're a first time buyer, DO NOT BUY. If you do, TAKE PICTURES OF EVERYTHING THE DAY YOU GET KEYS. You will be taken advantage of as you are learning the process and will offered little to no help. Taking hundreds of photos of damages on day one has saved me thousands of dollars in potential repairs. Be on site for repairs no matter what, take photos and follow up via email to keep a paper trail every step of the way. You will regret it if you don't. Quick list off the top of my head of things that were terrible.

In the process of construction of new build home that closes later this year. Correspondence is absolute nightmare. It takes 3-4 weeks for a response - and then still do not address your questions/concerns. In 2 months the Decor Manager changed 3 times. Interior finishes appointment was extremely disappointing. 2 hours to select finishes for a whole house and you are not allowed to go see samples by yourself ahead of time, unlike every other builder. Was also looking for guidance from a trained eye with the finishes but instead was just rushed and pushed to choose upgrades. After reading the other

I would not recommend anyone buy a home from DiCenzo Homes.
Here’s the story behind my recommendation:
My wife and I had planned our perfect wedding. We were to be married on December 14th, 2019. The only thing was missing was a home for us to move in to. We looked at homes in the Stoney Creek area in our price range, but a lot of them needed a bit… of work, or were too far from the QEW. We found a great price on a SNAP home in the Foothills of Winona subdivision. We looked at the model homes and found a model that fit our needs. We agreed on a closing date of December 19th. As we
