Area: Madison Heights
The Madison Heights neighborhood was largely developed between 1910 and 1917. It consisted of family homes of professional people. The entire area is flowing with tree-lined streets. The homes here vary but there is a large presence of craftsmen homes and cottages. There also various Upscale condominium and town home complexes some as old as 50 years and others as young as 5 years old. Many early residents subdivided their lots to build homes for their grown children. To this day, it's common for multiple generations of a family to own separate homes in the neighborhood. One thing that can be said about Madison Heights is that there is a strong sense of community here. There is an annual 4th of July street festival where you can meet many of the neighbors living in the area. Homes do not come on the market here very often as many residents do not want to leave so when homes become available here, they go very fast.

Area: Bungalow Heaven
This neighborhood reveals the quality and richness of conventional houses built during the Craftsman period, 1900-1920. Unlike other tours, most of these houses were built by contractors or their original owners without architects. Designs were often adapted from popular "bungalow books" which discussed such things as built-in buffets, boulder fireplaces, and the scent of jasmine through French doors.

Area: Arroyo Seco
Pasadena’s tranquil 132-acre Arroyo Seco is home to some of the city’s most treasured landmarks. The renowned Rose Bowl Stadium was built in 1922. Designed by noted architect Myron Hunt, the stadium seats 92,542. On Arroyo Blvd., after crossing under the historic Colorado Street Bridge, the Richard H. Chambers U.S. Court of Appeals comes into view. The court is housed in what was originally the Vista del Arroyo Hotel. Built in1903, the Vista del Arroyo was used as a military hospital during World War II. In the 1980s the federal government restored the building for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. A little further up is La Casita del Arroyo Clubhouse. Built in 1933 this "little house" was constructed of stone found within the Arroyo Seco.

Area: Craftsman Bohemia
The lower Arroyo Seco was settled in the 1910 period by artists and other bohemians who were drawn to this lovely oak glen. Many who built here were advocates of the Craftsman aesthetic movement and its veneration of nature and simplicity. One artist was Jean Mannheim whose 1909 painting studio is still intact at 500 S. Arroyo. Farther south at 626 S. Arroyo, the tile maker and teacher, Ernest Batchelder, built his home and first production kilns. Most of these houses were built rugged and woody, often with stream stone foundations. The friendly creature at 686 California was designed by the Irish immigrant Louis du Puget Millar for an Englishman, perhaps both homesick for the Cotswolds and thatched roofs.

Area: Orange Grove - Victorian Triumphant
This is one of the few Pasadena neighborhoods that can boast pre-1900 houses in quantity and good repair. Orange Grove was the prime residential street in town with large houses and even larger gardens, some stretching down to the Arroyo. As more new residents arrived from the East, Orange Grove addresses became scarce so new side streets were cut. Most of these estates are now garden apartments, but the side streets still have many turn- of-the-century houses. Built to recall former homes, the earliest were staunch and upright "Queen Anne" Victorians.

Area: Arroyo Seco - Greene & Greene and Friends
This neighborhood bordering the Arroyo Seco is the best place to view the work of Charles and Henry Greene, as well as some fine houses by their contemporaries. Arroyo Terrace was once solid Greene & Greene, including walks and landscaping. Westmoreland Place, planned with a buffer along Orange Grove, has two Greene & Greene houses: 2 Westmoreland, now part of Neighborhood Church, and the famous Gamble House at 4 Westmoreland Pl. The Prospect Blvd. area features the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Millard House and Studio (645 Prospect Crescent) in 1923.

The Customer Experience
Many realtors will tell you that they are the best or that they are tops in sales. I want you to know that I concentrate on you and the best way for you to know that, is by seeing what my customers had to say about purchasing or selling.
"You don’t come across many patient and honest realtors these days. I had 3 realtors before I found Eddie and he was the only one who treated me with genuine kindness and respect. Because he cared about me, he refused to let me compromise and helped me to find a place that I loved. He showed me all of the places I wanted to see without pressuring me to buy. It was important to him that I felt comfortable with my decision and he encouraged me to take careful consideration before making an offer. I truly felt as if he wanted to help me find a home rather than simply make a sale. The whole experience was like shopping for a house with a knowledgeable friend. And though we were strangers upon meeting, after working with him, I am proud to call him my friend. "
--Veronica, San Gabriel
"Being first-time buyers, Eddie took the time to provide us with the lowest level of detail with regards to the process, players and required documentation. He showed the highest level of dedication, resolve and professionalism from day one of the home search through the eleventh hour of escrow."
--Manuel and Debbie, Pasadena
"Often times it is easy to get discouraged so having someone on your side, someone you can count on can makes a big difference. For us, Eddie was that difference. He took the time to get know us and our needs. Most importantly, his professionalism and focus gave us the confidence and the peace of mind that he was always a step ahead of the game. We own our first home now, its been a while but Eddie continues to check up on us...we call that dedication. "
--Rey & Zoraida, Pasadena
"Andy and I just wanted to let you know that we are extremely happy with the job you did on selling our home. You made the process so stress free just as you had promised at the beginning. Also, you were able to get us top $$$ over our asking price which was incredible. We definitely will recommend you when we come across someone looking to buy or sell a home. Thanks again."
--Andy & Jessica - Norwalk
