Pardee Homes
Pardee Homes is a residential home building company founded in 1921 which currently builds new homes and planned communities in Southern California and the Las Vegas, NV metro region. The company was founded by George Pardee Sr. He was joined by his three sons, George M. Pardee Jr, Hoyt Pardee and J. Douglas Pardee in the Los Angeles housing boom after World War II.[1] They began building in southern Nevada in 1952, selling affordable homes to veterans for $1.00 down. The homes in this first Las Vegas development were sold out in the opening weekend.[2]

Pardee's new LivingSmart® Homes in Santa Clarita's Fair Oaks Ranch®, will all be built to the Gold-level criteria of the NGBS, inspected at least twice by an accredited green verifier, and Green Certified by the NAHB Research Center.[13]
