ignature Homes -- a Manitoban home builder has provided design,
technical and management services to the Canadian housing sec-
tor for over 35 years and now builds quality homes that are reason-
ably priced and dedicated to long-term longevity with energy efficiency in
mind. The company is successfully servicing the Winnipeg home buyers’
market through fine craftsmanship and a detail-oriented philosophy.
Rubin Diamond, President and Owner, graduated with a Civil Engineer-
ing degree from the University of Manitoba in 1957 and has been ac-
tive within the Winnipeg Housing market since then and has served as
President of the Manitoba Housing Builder Association and as a member
of the Canadian Housing Design Council. The single-family house builder
expanded business into Western Canada and the United States, but has
only been developing properties in Winnipeg as of late. “The Winnipeg
market in the last number of years has been booming, and one of the
reasons is because of the availability of building lots throughout the city,”
says Diamond. “We’re different because we want to limit our production
for quality control, so we only operate in one end of the city.”
