What to watch for:

• Some of the secondary bedrooms are exceptionally small.
• All buyers must pre-qualify with Lennar’s in-house lender, but there is not a requirement to use this lender for your purchase. ASK YOUR REALTOR about your financing options.
• The property tax assessments noted above are IN ADDITION to the regular property tax of about 1.25%.
• On transfer (upon the sale of your home), a "donation" of .05% of the sales price must be made to Lennar’s Charitable Housing Fund. This is a deed restriction and cannot be avoided.

CAUTION: Buying a new home is a very complicated process, and although the builder’s sales team is generally highly qualified, they’re working for the builder and NOT for you, the buyer.
