Sales begin at Pardee's Tamarack

Sales are under way for Pardee Homes' new Tamarack neighborhood in the Rancho Las Palmas community.

"The 170 homes in Tamarack represent the last of Rancho Las Palmas. One of the benefits to home buyers is that everything is already built around these new homes, including schools, parks, commercial centers and even a post office," Ray Landry, assistant vice president of sales, said. "Rancho Las Palmas has been successful because the community offers families the right home at the right price in the right location. Tamarack homes are a great fit for this family-oriented community,"

Rancho Las Palmas will have about 3,200 homes upon completion.

Homes have the builder's Energy Star/ComfortWise package and are independently certified to be at least 30 percent more energy efficient than federal standards require.
