Lennar is honored to be named Builder of the Year by BUILDER Magazine.
“We work hard to go above and beyond for new homeowners,” said Anthony Mignone, President of Lennar’s Tri-State Division. “If you’re in search for a new home, there’s no one you can trust more than Builder of the Year.”
John McManus, of BUILDER magazine, said in a recent article that Lennar’s strategic and operational team of associates was honored as the 2018 Builder of the Year for so much more than just what they’ve achieved over the past 12 to 18 months, assembling the resources, talent and land as one of America’s biggest builders.
“Lennar’s longstanding ability to find and acquire assets in difficult times and monetize them in good times has been a critical capability,” says Carl E. Reichardt Jr., managing director for equity research, covering home building and building products at investment strategist BTIG. “It’s not just about buying land well, but about building a house well.”
Stuart Miller, executive chairman at Lennar Corporation, has spent the past 21 years as CEO of Lennar before moving into this newly created leadership position in April. A pathway there, includes a step-by-step breakdown of key moments in a customer’s chain of home-buying decisions and explorations – from shopping for a wedding dress, for example, or for baby furniture. It starts with a milestone in a consumer’s life, and progresses from there.
“If we can identify that moment of engagement and start a dialogue that’s based on our educating a customer on what she needs, and grow that into an exchange where we learn more and more about our customer so that we can personalize an offering to her, we’ll soon get to the point where we’ll be able to send them a digital envelope that allows them to look at an Everything’s Included version of their own home, and that eliminates every part of the buying process that’s of no value to them, or a pain point for them.”
This experience, according to the article, excites Miller as he and the Lennar leadership team place today’s operational performance and tomorrow’s innovation imperatives on a priority par, one as equally critical as the other.

For the Fourth of July, a family picnic around the resort-style pool or a party with neighbors at one of your Lennar community’s parks or playgrounds is as American as apple pie.
In that spirit, the Lennar family offers super-easy recipe ideas for the holiday. They’re not only fun to make, they also let you exercise your freedom to adjust the ingredients any way you like. Better yet, they really are red (hot dogs), white (cole slaw), and blue (berry dessert).
The Sizzler classes up the all-American grilled hotdog, bringing the steakhouse to the bun.
Cut a pint of cherry or grape tomatoes long ways. Toss in a little olive oil, a couple of cloves of crushed garlic, a few sprigs of thyme and roast at 375 degrees for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through cook time. While the tomatoes are roasting, sauté sliced white onions with a little salt and pepper over medium-high heat.
Top your grilled hotdog and toasted bun with some roasted tomatoes, grilled onions, blue cheese crumbles, a drizzle of your favorite steak sauce and a sprinkle of French’s® crispy fried onions for some added crunch.
Mix cabbage and carrots. Boil remaining ingredients. After the liquid cools a bit, pour over veggies. Cover and refrigerate. Let set 12 hours before serving. Keeps up to six weeks, but this slaw won’t last past the evening’s fireworks.
Flour both sides of two Pillsbury® pie crusts, or make your own flaky dough, if you prefer. Line a CorningWare® dish with one crust, saving the other crust for the top.
In a mixing bowl, stir frozen or fresh berries (or peaches, or both) with 6 to 10 tablespoons of sugar, a tablespoon or two of flour and a dash of nutmeg. Stir until fruit “juices” and thickens a little with the flour.
Make sure your bottom crust hangs over the edge of the casserole dish. Fill with the fruit mixture. Top the dish with the second crust. Pinch together and use a fork to press the crust(s) onto the edge of the casserole.
Use a paring knife to cut a heart-shaped slice into the top crust, along with a few extra little cuts so steam can escape.
Bake at 350 for at least 30 to 45 minutes or until the crust is browned or thick juice begins oozing from the top; it might be a good idea put a piece of foil on the bottom of your oven to catch any spillover.
Thank you for being part of our Lennar family of homes and communities from sea to shining sea. Happy Fourth, America!
