PASADENA, Calif. – Brandywine Homes, a pioneer of infill development in Southern California, reserved the first five lots at Estates Pasadena, the continuation of a 30-unit community in East Pasadena, during a grand opening this past weekend that followed a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by Pasadena Mayor Bill Bogaard and Chamber of Commerce members.
“This is an exciting project because it provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for people looking to purchase a new home in the historic city of Pasadena,” said Dave Barisic, vice president of sales and marketing at Brandywine Homes. “Quite simply, there are no other new home communities out there for those looking for a new, family-oriented neighborhood to call home.” During the grand opening weekend, visitors toured Estates Pasadena’s model home, design center and homes under construction as well as the three newly released lots that are now reserved. Construction of the community’s four- and five-bedroom homes is expected to be completed in May 2014. Read More >

Orange County has long been recognized as a great place to raise a family. With home prices again on the rise, though, homeowners want to be able to lock down their investment and be able to benefit from growth in the market. Both young professionals and families with new additions want to be able to move up from their apartments and starter homes into something a little more spacious.
If you’re looking for a Garden Grove home for sale <http://www.brandywine-homes.com> Brandywine Homes’ new Walden development might be just the thing you’re looking for.
This new residential community called Walden will feature
18 single-family detached homes with full driveways on spacious

easy commute whether you’re commuting to Irvine for work, or down to Little
Saigon or Koreatown for dinner.
In one of the safest neighborhoods in the US, Garden
Grove is a perfect place to raise a family. Whether you’re raising an only
child, or a troop of young’uns, the three to four bedroom townhouses at Walden
make sure you’ll have enough room for the whole family. In fact, with three car
garages included with most units, you can go right on and bring grandma along
as well!
Unlike older homes in Garden Grove, new developments at Walden
are tailored for people who are looking for comfort and utility. There’s no
hassle trying to update a hopelessly outdated home, no need to struggle to find
enough parking or spend time and money rehabilitating a malnourished lawn. With
none of the hassle that comes with renovating a home to fit your needs, a new
development can provide whatever you’re looking for – whether it’s a spacious
home in a central location, extra room for extended family, or a fresh, modern

Who would have thought you’d need instructions to change a lightbulb? In less enlightened times, all you had to do was pick the right wattage, screw the bulk into a fixture and flip the switch.
But now, brightness is measured in lumens and lightbulbs come in a variety of shapes and hues. They can be more expensive but save you money in the long run.
The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 set out to increase the energy efficiency of buildings, vehicles and products. It requires most screw-in lightbulbs to use at least 27 percent less energy by 2014. Standard incandescent bulbs don’t pass the test – they turn about 90 percent of the energy they consume into heat – so they are being phased out.
As of Jan. 1 2012, 100-watt bulbs were no longer being made or imported but could be sold until supplies run out. The 75-watt incandescent met the same fate in January of this year and next year it’s lights out for standard 60- and 40-watt bulbs. The law exempts specialty bulbs, three-way bulbs, chandelier bulbs, refrigerator bulbs, plant grow lights and others.
In the place of old-fashioned incandescents, are bulbs that burn much longer and use much less energy. Here’s a brief explanation to help you make the bright choice:
Most older lighting fixtures accept the newer bulbs, the Energy Department says. If in doubt, take the bulb you are replacing to the store and ask for assistance.
The Lighting Facts label on packaging gives you information to compare different bulbs. It tells you:
“It’s very important to read the packaging on all of these products to make sure you know that they’re going to work in your particular application,” an EPA official told the Web site Earth911. “So, unfortunately it takes a little bit more effort nowadays to choose a lightbulb.”

The developer of 51 townhomes is expected to break ground on a site across the street from the Nixon Presidential Library & Museum by October after being greenlighted by the Planning Commission.
The commission unanimously approved the project proposed by Brandywine Homes, which will be on 5.1 acres southeast of Yorba Linda Boulevard and Eureka Avenue.
Construction of the townhomes will take two years; the land is mostly vacant now.
“The Brandywine Project across from the Nixon Library not only represents a revitalization of the area, it is a step in the right direction in providing a diversified housing stock for residents of all ages,” said Planning Commissioner Karalee Watson in an email. Read More >
