Primont Homes development company comes from humble beginnings, but today they’re one of the most well respected builders in the GTA, having constructed thousands of homes throughout the different communities in the area. They’re widely respected across the real estate industry, which can be seen in being an award winning company. They also believe in giving back to the community by donating to multiple GTA charities. John moved to Canada in 1960, and two years later, he began his own business as a masonry contractor, all before the age of 20. John worked as a mason for 9 years, and in 1971 he successfully built his own home at the corner of Victoria Ave and Van Horne Ave.
The next 15 years really shaped the character of his new company. In that time they successfully built over 350 homes throughout the GTA, and more importantly they completed their first commercial use building. 1989 was also the year when John decided to pass the mantle of his company. He kept it in the family though, and Joe Montesano was named the new president. Joe was able to keep his company growing by having his company build 530 new homes by 1999.
