Beautiful homes with a great attention to details! Paul really knows his stuff - he's been building homes for 50 years. Highly recommend building with Shoopman Homes.

Very unpleasant experience. Wouldn't let us walk the model home unless we had an appointment and intentions to buy. Made my decision easy. No intentions now... couldn't even see the home or the quality.
