HCRA laid charges for **illegal sales of 453 homes** across **7 corporate entities**, with executives **Dino Taurasi, Carlo Taurasi, and Daniel Ciccone personally charged**. Receiver KSV Advisory identified **$349,945,000 in mortgages registered on the eight projects** as of the receivership orders.\n\n**Source:** <https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/stateview-homes-charged-home-construction-regulatory-authority-ontario-1.7539450>\n\n**Confidence:** Verified.\n\n**Pattern illustrated:** Stateview is the **volume case** in HCRA's enforcement record — even larger than Albion in pure unit count (453 vs 39-40), but the prosecution is more complex because of the receivership overlay. It also illustrates the **personal-liability path**: HCRA can charge principals individually, not just the corporate entity.","rationale_body":null,"metadata":null,"links":{"outgoing":[{"slug":"tarion-plus-hcra-dual-gate-requirement","title":"HCRA + Tarion are two distinct gates — an Ontario new-home builder needs both to legally build or sell","kind":"rule","scope":"business","link_type":"depends-on"}],"incoming":[{"slug":"research-brief-hcra-ontario-may-2026","title":"Research brief: Ontario Home Construction Regulatory Authority (HCRA) — definitive reference (May 2026)","kind":"reference","scope":"business","link_type":"relates-to"},{"slug":"tarion-guarantee-fund-2024-100m-payouts","title":"Tarion Guarantee Fund — 2024 payouts >$100M (largest single year in program history); 900+ deposit claims drove the $250 capital-replenishment surcharge","kind":"reference","scope":"business","link_type":"relates-to"}]},"created_at":"2026-05-24T13:50:00.846Z","updated_at":"2026-05-24T13:50:00.846Z"}
