The regulator added that it subsequently issued a freeze order to prohibit Albion from withdrawing purchasers’ funds. The order also required the company to hold the funds in trust. The charges include illegal building and selling, failure to enrol homes, failure to comply with conditions, and being a party to an offence.“Albion has repeatedly disregarded the law governing new home construction. The HCRA will continue to increase penalties on this former licensee until it stops putting the public at risk,” HCRA CEO and registrar Wendy Moir said in a statement.
