Legend Homes going “beyond green” on ABC’s Extreme Makeover
In January, we wrote about Guildmember Oakwood Homes on ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. We’re excited to report that another Guildmember, Legend Homes, has been chosen by the Extreme Makeover team to help transform the lives of the Byers family in Corvallis, Oregon. Taping recently wrapped up on the story of the Byers family whose children were at great risk living in a potentially toxic home environment.
Eight-year-old Jenessa “Boey� Byers has a rare form of cancer and requires a sterile environment following chemotherapy treatments. The air-quality in the home is also important to her 12-year-old brother Joe, who suffers from asthma.
Award winning Legend Homes was chosen by ABC, from a pool of dozens, because of their track record as a green-certified builder for over three years.
Thanks to the help of “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,� Rob and Rachel Byers now have a beautiful, 4,000-square-foot home that is “beyond green certified,� said Mara Woloshin, a spokeswoman for Legend Homes, the Oregon-based homebuilding company that led the project.
Congratulations Legend Homes on this accomplishment. We are proud to have quality-minded builders, such as you, as part of our community.
