IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 1, 2016) - Brandywine Homes, a pioneer of infill development in Southern California, sold 40 homes, opened three new communities and broke ground on 11 additional communities in Southern California in 2015. The homebuilder, who recently ranked number 17 on the Orange County Business Journal's Homebuilder List based on home sales in 2014, aims to close about 216 homes throughout Orange and Los Angeles counties in 2016.

"2015 was a transition year for us with 40 closings, but it was a banner year for acquisitions and our pipeline has grown significantly," said Dave Barisic, vice president of sales and marketing at Brandywine Homes. "We are continuing to look for and acquire land for build-out in 2017 and beyond."

In 2015, Brandywine opened Seabright, 26 townhomes in Costa Mesa; Covington, a 51-unit community in Yorba Linda; and Brighton, 60 single-family homes in unincorporated West Carson near Torrance.
