“Our Company wanted to provide a fun day for prospective homebuyers to come visit our newer South Florida communities, meet the neighbors, find out about the schools, the local shopping and also talk to us about the brand new home options available,” said Frank Fernandez, Director of Sales and Marketing for Lennar’s Southeast Florida division. “When you are looking for a brand new home being comfortable with the community and the surrounding area is just as important.”

During Lennar’s “Great Community Day” prospective homebuyers can find out about all the great incentives being offered right now on top of Lennar’s already low home prices. Currently, the homebuilder is offering zero closing costs† on select residences in the South Florida area. Additionally, Lennar’s preferred lender, Universal American Mortgage Company (UAMC), is offering interest rates starting as low as 4.875% (5.40% APR) ** fixed for life, which in turn help the buyer maintain an affordable monthly payment that may be even lower than on a re-sale property.

This is in addition to the government’s first-time homebuyer tax credit of up to $8,000*. If you haven’t owned a home in the last three years you may qualify to receive this government tax credit. This is not a loan and the buyer pays nothing back.

Lennar is one of the nation’s premier builders of new homes for all generations. Currently, celebrating its 55-year anniversary, the homebuilder understands the quality, customer service and lifestyle needs of today’s new homebuyers.

The Southeast Florida division of Lennar offers a variety of homes from single-family, townhomes, and condominium residences to active lifestyle communities that offer homebuyers the very best amenities.
