Houses at 750 Iliff, 18860 PCH Survived Fires Because they were Passive Construction by Mary Cummins Real Estate appraiser


A passive home built in 2024 located at 750 Iliff, Pacific Palisades, California survived the fires which destroyed the surrounding homes. It is mandatory green design because it's newer. It's a passive house with super insulated envelope, air tight construction, high performance glazing, thermal bridge free detailing and more. All these elements which save energy by keeping heat, cool air in also keep embers, fire, smoke out. There is minimal landscaping, block walls and a metal roof. We can build to prevent houses from burning down in fires. Before and after. It's time to make all homes more fire proof in wildfire areas. The owner Chris Ottinger remodeled/rebuilt at the perfect time. Green construction is mandatory for new construction. The architect was Greg Chasen. It's near intersection of Sunset Blvd and Chautauqua. As I look at it the roof is angle perfectly for Santa Ana winds to blow over it which blow to the sea. There are also no exposed eaves. 


The home at 18860 Pacific Coast Highway PCH, Malibu also survived the fire. It was listed for almost $10M in 2023. It was listed for lease in 2024 for $50,000/mo 4 bed, 4 bath 3,896 sf. It was built in 2000 which means mandatory green construction. Green construction also helps prevent the home from burning down. Owner David Steiner.
