Discovering your dream home is a great milestone, but it’s no secret that homebuying can be a challenge. From price point to closet space, numerous elements must align in order for you to find a space that your entire family feels at home in. However, as summer comes to an end, your ideal homebuying conditions may be fast-approaching! According to a study by the real estate listing site Zillow1, the late summer months, specifically August and September, are the best times to buy a new home.
In anticipation of the start of the school year and with many families away on vacation in the late summer, this is a great time to ramp up your home search. Move-in ready homes will be yours for the picking, and with fewer offers being placed, the odds may skew in your favor to lock in your perfect home.
Another finding worth mentioning is the decrease in interest rates2, down from nearly 5% last year. This not only facilitates the loan qualification process but also allows you to save more money in the long term. In select Lennar communities across Miami-Dade County, new home buyers can benefit from interest rates as low as 2.990% (3.287% APR)* with a generous maximum loan amount of $484,350.
A desirable Lennar community located close to Florida’s Turnpike, The Royal Collection at Silver Palms is offering a limited release of new single-family homes, currently at pre-construction pricing. Choose from one of three spacious designs, each beautifully equipped with stylish modern appointments — such as a chef-inspired kitchen with stainless steel appliances and cabinets in your choice of stylish colors. In such a beautiful setting, it’s easy to find inspiration for creating special meals for family and friends. These kitchens are made for delicious culinary explorations!
Of course, this lovely community isn’t just about the in-home features and finishes. For a nominal club membership fee, residents can access Silver Palms’ grand clubhouse, which features a glistening swimming pool, state-of-the-art fitness center, party room, and much more. The little ones will love spending their days in the kids’ water park under the tipping buckets, while you unwind poolside and mingle with neighbors.
For those seeking a more cosmopolitan lifestyle, Urbana could be the perfect fit.
