Cornerstone Building Group was formed with the intent
of providing a different experience for today’s
new home buyer. And by different, we mean taking
a step back to an era when a builder took a personal
interest in each and every home that he built. That
is the mindset of Cornerstone’s two principal
partners, Joe Nastasi and Natale Russo. Both are
lifelong residents of South Jersey who continue to
raise their families in the area. Together, they
bring over 40 combined years in the new home construction
industry to the company, each with a different background
and area of expertise.
Joe spent over twenty years as a construction supervisor,
project manager, and Vice-president for a large NJ
builder and developer. In that capacity, he dealt
directly with over 1000 new home buyers in the area
and learned the things that were important to them
and what things could be implemented to improve the
overall building experience. He personally deals
with each buyer from the time the contract is signed
to the day when they make settlement on their home,
and beyond. By treating the buyer as a partner
in the building process rather than just a name on
a contract, Joe believes that that personal relationship
allows Cornerstone to deliver a home of the finest
quality.
Natale is a second generation builder and has spent
over 25 years in the industry as both a successful
entrepreneur working for many of the area’s
largest home builders and commercial developers,
and also continuing his family’s involvement
in the new home building and remodeling field. It
is his valuable experience of being on both sides
of the construction process as a subcontractor and
a builder that enables him to have a unique perspective
on how to create a cooperative environment to continually
maintain Cornerstone’s commitment to excellence.
Over the years, they have built a network of fine
craftsmen, tradesmen, and suppliers who are each
aware of the high level of quality that Cornerstone
demands and expects.
Above all else, Cornerstone believes that the relationship
between the builder and the client goes far beyond
the just the home itself. Through its customer service
and warranty programs, and Natale and Joe’s
desire to build homes of the highest quality as well
as build lifelong relationships with their clients,
Cornerstone Building Group continues to distinguish
itself in the new homes market.
