Officers said several victims from across Ontario were identified. Some reportedly lost in excess of $200,000.
“Potential buyers were defrauded of down payments and even full purchase prices for homes that were not provided,” officers said in a news release.
According to police, on Wednesday, the owner of the company — 58-year-old Philip Bradley from Mississauga — was arrested.
He has been charged with nine counts of fraud over $5,000.
