New Luxury Homes - Estates Pasadena - Dave Knight

New Luxury Homes - Estates Pasadena

Maybe you've seen the signs along the side of the road pointing you North of the 210 Freeway to the newer development of luxury homes in Pasadena.  The signs say "New Luxury Homes - Estates Pasadena" and they point you towards the corner of Sierra Madre Villa and Sierra Madre Blvd near Eaton Canyon golf course in Northeast Pasadena. 

This development of luxury single family homes has been in the works for years.  Several of the lots were completed back at the time of the economic downturn.  For years there were several vacant lots that remained vacant and untouched.  Recently we've seen movement as the development has begun regaining momentum at a time where demand is high and supply is low.  The new grand opening is October 19, 2013. 

For more information on buying one of these new luxury homes or other luxury homes in Pasadena, call 626.590.4995.  If you're looking for more luxury homes, here is a list of luxury pasadena homes and new construction Pasadena homes throughout Pasadena.

A recent press release from states this about Keller Williams Realty: 

Keller Williams Realty Becomes Largest Real Estate Franchise in North America
Company reports record growth, productivity and profitability gains;
announces expansion into the United Kingdom.
AUSTIN, TX (September 16, 2013) - With a net gain of 12,000 associates in the past year, Keller Williams Realty is now the largest real estate franchise in North America. The announcement, based on publicly available agent count data as of September 9, 2013, was made during Keller Williams Realty's Midyear State of the Company presentation. Keller Williams is now home to more than 90,000 associates around the world.
"We are not a company of complacency," CEO Mark Willis said. "We have the best business model in the industry and it's leading to increased productivity, profitability and profit sharing that are at all-time highs for our company and unrivaled in our industry."
In recent months, Keller Williams Realty has shattered its monthly records for listings taken, contracts written, commissions earned, owner profit and profit share:

  • Year over year, units are up 8 percent, closed volume is up 17 percent and gross commission income is up 18 percent.
  • Ninety-five percent of the company's offices are profitable year to date - a figure that far outpaces the standard for franchise businesses.
  • In the past 12 months, the company has distributed $58 million in profit share to associates, a 33 percent increase over the previous year.
Features for consumers include:

  • The ability to search for homes based on criteria or by custom drawing on an interactive map;
  • GPS localized data displays homes in a given area that match the consumer's price range;
  • The ability to easily swipe through galleries of photos to decide whether a home fits one's needs and then add it to saved searches for convenient reference on the app or via the agent's website, where the saved searches are synced;
  • The ability to save notes on properties for future reference; and
  • Faster communication between agents and consumers via call, text or email.
The strong growth, productivity and profitability gains follow a year of milestones for the company:

  • The release of the Keller Williams mobile app - personally branded for each of the company's 90,000 associates. In the past 30 days, more than 58,000 consumers have downloaded the app to their Apple and Android devices.
  • Publication of co-founder Gary Keller's new book, The ONE Thing, which has appeared on 117 bestseller lists, including The New York Times, where it has been on the business bestseller list for 5 months, and The Wall Street Journal, where it earned the #1 spot.
Willis used concepts from The ONE Thing to illustrate his presentation, which took place at Mega Camp, the real estate industry's premier educational and networking event for top producers. "Keller Williams leaders, what you're doing is lining up a perfect domino run," he said. "Being #1 in agent count in the United States was our first domino. We're on our way to knocking over bigger and bigger dominos until we're #1 in agent count, transactions and volume all across the world."
Keller Williams Worldwide President Chris Heller also announced the company's expansion into the United Kingdom. In recent years, the company's global division has announced franchise agreements in Austria, Germany, Indonesia, Southern Africa, Switzerland, Turkey and Vietnam. Heller touted the achievements of the company's regions outside of North America and welcomed more than 100 international guests from countries including Brazil, China, Colombia, Ghana, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Poland and Russia.
"Around the globe, entrepreneurs, brokers and agents are looking for and asking for what we offer," Heller said. "They crave our models, systems, training and technology. And because Keller Williams can offer all of those at a level they have never seen before, we are attracting tremendous talent and gaining momentum."
"Success leaves clues," Keller Williams President Mary Tennant said during her State of the Culture update. "And your unprecedented achievements this year all flow from the culture of success, caring and opportunity you created and are enhancing every day."

Pasadena Condos for Sale in California


Pasadena is filled with beautiful condos and townhomes that offer a great first home for many residents of the city. One of the greatest perks about a condominium in Pasadena is that it can provide a unique form of community within the non-stop busyness of the city. Central condominium facilities like a pool, spa or barbeque grill can create a hub for residents to meet each other and build friendships.

Great condo communities include:  Cal Tech Condos, Orange Grove Condos and Madison Heights Condos.



What is the difference between a Pasadena condo and townhouse?  Simply put, condos share both walls and floors whereas townhouses only share walls (in a townhouse, you will only have neighbors beside you and never above or below you).

It can also be a very time-consuming and costly one if you're not familiar with all aspects of the process, and don't have all the best information and resources at hand. One of our specialties is representing the best interests of Pasadena area buyers throughout the home buying process.

DALLAS, TEXAS (February 17, 2013) — Keller Williams Realty, Inc. announced today that it is the largest real estate franchise company by agent count in the United States, with approximately 80,000 associates. In recent years, Keller Williams Realty has posted record growth numbers, surpassing RE/MAX, Century 21, and now Coldwell Banker to secure the industry's top position. The news, based on publically available information as of February 6, 2013, was announced in front of more than 10,000 Keller Williams associates during the company's annual convention in Dallas, Texas.
During his standing-room-only, annual State of the Company address, CEO Mark Willis made the announcement, stating, "Keller Williams associates: We are one family. We have one destiny. We share one thing...We areAmerica's #1 real estate company by agent count!"
Willis also reported strong productivity gains by Keller Williams associates in 2012. Year over year, per-agent units increased 23 percent, closed volume was up 31 percent, and gross commission income rose 28 percent. Moreover, a record 91 percent of the company's offices were profitable for the year. The company also announced its final profit share total for the year, which added up to more than $55 million in profits distributed to Keller Williams associates – an increase of 44 percent over the previous year.
Keller Williams Realty President Mary Tennant updated attendees on the company's charitable 501(c)(3) entity, KW Cares, which in 2012 awarded $2.7 million in grants to associates and their families in need.
And finally, Keller Williams Worldwide President Chris Heller announced plans to expand into two new regions: (1) Germany, Austria, and Switzerland; and (2) Turkey. The company previously announced global franchise agreements in Vietnam, Indonesia, and Southern Africa. Heller also extended a big welcome to more than 70 international guests who were visiting from 18 countries.
"One of the keys to Keller Williams Realty's phenomenal success has been our ability to grow organically – from agent to agent, from market center to market center, from country to country – earning our reputation one person at a time," Heller said.
Willis' presentation was followed by a 30th anniversary party. The No. 1 announcement and celebration capped a remarkable year for the Austin, TX-based company:
  • J.D. Power and Associates ranked Keller Williams "Highest in Customer Satisfaction" among both home buyers and home sellers.*
  • Keller Williams was ranked No. 9 on America's Top 150 Workplaces – the only national real estate company on the list.
  • And in April, Keller Williams co-founder and bestselling author Gary Keller will publish his latest book, The ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results.
Willis thanked associates and implored them to "Never back down" from their new position as the largest real estate company in the United States: "Let's celebrate tonight, but watch out, competition. Tomorrow we're going to be working harder than we've ever worked before. The real prize we're pursuing is to be #1 in agent count and transactions and volume all across the world!"
