Feeling safe and comfortable within our homes is at the forefront of everyone’s mind right now, and current low interest rates make this a great time to buy a new home. Lennar and WCI Tampa now offer new home designs with flex spaces which can be adapted to an office, playroom, or study lounge, making it easier than ever to work from home and provide entertainment space for the kids. Below, we’ve put together the top reasons why now is the time to buy a new home.
With interest rates at a historical low, it’s a great time to save money on your new home. A lower rate means you won’t be paying nearly as much over the course of your loan, which leads to more purchasing power. It also means you can likely afford a higher-priced home then you originally thought! As interest rates tend to fluctuate over the months and years, this presents the perfect window of opportunity you won’t want to miss.
With working from home being the new normal for most, and many children also learning from home, it’s more important than ever to have spaces that suit your needs. Lennar and WCI offer numerous floor plans with generously sized studies, loft spaces, game rooms, and more, so that every member of the family can enjoy their activities in privacy.

It’s easy to feel cooped up these days, but luckily, Lennar and WCI offer inspired outdoor living spaces so your family can safely enjoy some fresh air and nature. Having an entertainment space for the kids so they can still get exercise without risk ensures peace of mind for your whole family. With patios, pools, and landscaped lawns, there are numerous homes to choose from to meet your family’s unique needs and desires.
With low interest rates, exciting new designs, and modern work from home spaces, there’s never been a better time to buy a new Lennar or WCI home. Give your family the comfort, safety, and lifestyle they deserve today! For more reasons why now is the time to purchase a new home, be sure to ‘like’ Lennar on Facebook.
Lennar partnered with renowned architect, Ron Metzker, vice president and principal of LPAS, to create unparalleled home designs at the Palisades community – a collection of upscale single-family detached townhomes at The SF Shipyard. Metzker and his work on the Palisades was recently featured in a designer profile published in the San Francisco Chronicle.
“At the Shipyard, for example, people love the open floor plan where spaces can be tailored to fit individual needs,” he told the Chronicle. “It allows them to personalize, not one big open space, but has intimate spaces such as window seats to provide additional character. Open space and rooftop terraces are also premium amenities in the City. That was a big deal.”
He also explains a redesign behind Palisade’s 66 detached single-family homes and why it’s attracting buyers.
“Each home has terraces on multiple levels including a large roof top terrace with views of the bay and surrounding city. Each home is also detached from neighboring homes with no common walls for superior acoustic separation. Shared open space is also accommodated with a series of pocket parks that are interspersed between clusters of single family homes.” He said.
Palisades at The SF Shipyard offers a variety of new townhomes that provide 1,510 square feet, three bedrooms, two and one-half bathrooms and two-bay garages. Complete with the homebuilder’s signature Everything’s Included® program, each home comes with upgrades and features such as Bosch® stainless steel appliances, washer and dryer, quartz kitchen countertops, integrated home automation and Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ designs for whole-home connectivity all at no additional cost.

Palisades is now selling from the low $1.2 millions and has model homes available by appointment only, seven days a week. For more information on Palisades, other new homes at The SF Shipyard or to schedule your model tour visit www.liveatsfshipyard.com.

With autumn officially here, the days are getting shorter, the weather cooler and if you love this season, you’re likely already getting into the Halloween spirit. It’s more than likely Halloween will look a lot different this year – a lot less in-person interaction than in years past. While it’s still a great excuse to dress up in a fantastic costume, there are so many other ways to get into the spooky spirit all month long at home.
1.Make Halloween sugar cookies.
It’s an easy recipe and the kids will have a blast decorating them. Just pick up some cookie cutters in the shapes of pumpkins, ghosts, bats and any other character that fits with this time of year – if you don’t already have them in storage!
2. Create a spooky wreath.
Before the Thanksgiving or Christmas wreaths come out, consider making a more spirited wreath at home. Incorporate some bats, skulls or mini pumpkins. All you need is floral wire, shears, glue gun and some supplies from your local craft store.
3. Embrace pumpkin-spiced everything.
Even if you aren’t a pumpkin-spiced latte lover, there are so many other mouthwatering pumpkin recipes, such as pumpkin soups, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie. Delicious!
4. Hang up fake spider webs.
Okay, so it’s a very basic decoration, but who hasn’t grown up doing this at school or at home? The more, the spookier!
5. Decorate with mini pumpkins galore.
The pumpkins are out in grocery stores everywhere and you can usually find a plethora of mini pumpkins that cost anywhere between $0.50 – $1. Why not get a whole bunch and place them in every room! Or paint them, cover them in glitter glue, go crazy and have fun.
6. Boo one of your neighbors!
If you haven’t been part of the “you’ve been booed” game before, it’s a great way to share the Halloween spirit with family and friends. Simply create a bag of fun Halloween treats, google the “you’ve been booed” letter and place it inside. Then drop off to someone secretly. They’ll be instructed they have two days to boo somebody else – before you know it the whole neighborhood will be involved.
7. Create a spirited window display.
Use shadowy ghouls, fake spiders or just some creepy eyes – get crafty and let your windows tell their own spooky story.
8. Make a chic and trendy plush velvet pumpkin.
Tutorials for this easy craft are available all over the internet and you only need a few basic craft supplies. Bonus: they look high-end!
9. Make a ghostly gourd!
Gourds are now in season and usually available right next to the pumpkins. You can decorate with gourds next to pumpkins on their own, but thanks to their funky shapes they make for an easy craft: paint it white then paint some black eyes and an open mouth for an instant ghost décor piece!
10. Make “bleeding” candles.
All you need are some white pillar candles and red candles. Simply met red wax over the top of the white candles to create that creepy yet chic effect.
11. Try carving a pineapple Jack-o-lantern.
It sounds weird but because of the weathered look and texture of the outside of a pineapple, paired with the wild top leaves, it comes out looking quite creepy but tastes oh so sweet!
12. Build a scary or sweet scarecrow!
There really are no rules, but oh so many ways to do it. You don’t have to stuff the entire thing with hay – newspaper works for the main body under the clothes, just add hay to the hands, neck and feet sticking out to give it some authenticity.
13. Carve a pumpkin! Okay – this one is the traditional way to celebrate, but it’s fun every year and never gets old. Be sure to wait until the week before so that your pumpkin design will stay strong – or carve a new one all month long.
Holidays are all about sharing tradition with the ones you love. So, tap into your creative side this year and celebrate with some of these fun ideas that might help inspire some new traditions of your own.
