People who love sunshine, love the Florida “Funshine.” Florida’s subtropical climate equates to refreshing afternoon rains almost every day in the summer months which is accompanied by a generous sunset usually after 8 pm. In fact, on the longest day of the year during the summer solstice (when the sun has reached its highest position in the sky – June 21, 2019) you can count on some light even close to 9 pm. The natural side effect of the rain and extra hours of sunshine is more time for poolside fun with your family, but also the warm temperatures and humidity can wreak havoc on an unattended pool. Here are four easy steps to ensure your pool is ship-shape all summer.
For more ways to enjoy the Florida Funshine in your new home check out Lennar’s Open-Door Blog.

Florida is home to 21.3 million people and climbing. The Sunshine State is now the third most populous state in the United States. This population boom means that cities are growing and economic opportunities abound. Like many other regions in Florida, Tampa Bay is rapidly expanding with something new to celebrate every day. Learn the top four reasons why you should consider living in the Tampa Bay area.
Affordability
The cost of living in Tampa is 8% below the national average. Plus, with more affordable homes, the city has been ranked second among the best places for first-time homebuyers. In certain areas like Downtown Tampa and St. Petersburg, residents can even save money by taking the trolley, walking or biking to work, thus reducing transportation costs.
New Growth and Revival
Tampa is a city that is rapidly growing. Each district has its own events, developments, and special occasions, making every mile feel like part of a unique community. In Riverwalk, a monthly celebration called Fourth Friday celebrates the rich arts and culture scene. Local businesses, like the Tampa Art Museum and the Straz Center, even offer special programs for this event. In the Channel District, Water Street, a new development project, will transform the city into a more attractive and diverse destination for a younger generation. In Tampa Heights and Seminole Heights, both locals and tourist are fascinated by a unique concept called Armature Works, a trolley building which now houses local restaurants, a boutique, a venue, and a co-working space. In Ybor City, “Cigar Capital of the World,” developers are building a four-story boutique hotel with a full-service restaurant, pool, and more, creating more job opportunities and business for the area.
Booming Small Businesses
Tampa Bay is known for its history. But small-business owners are launching this region into the future with new and exciting businesses that take cues from the big cities. St. Petersburg just opened it’s a first zero-waste store called The Refillery. And, you can find James Beard-nominated chefs all throughout Tampa and St. Pete. If you want something more quaint, you’ll be surprised what you can find in little neighborhoods like Ybor City, West Tampa, Lakeland, Riverview, and Central Ave. in St. Pete.
Sunshine Year Round
No matter what season it is, Florida will have sunshine year-round. The best place to spend under the sun is on the beach, which is less than an hour away. You can also spend your sunshine-filled days cheering for local sports teams, visiting Zoo Tampa at Lowry Park with the whole family, enjoying brunch at countless outdoor restaurants, and exploring the natural wonders this area offers.
Now, is the best time to move to the Tampa Bay area. With over 60 communities throughout the Tampa Bay area to fit your lifestyle and budget, Lennar can make your dream of homeownership in the Sunshine State possible.

What better time to find your dream home than during National Homeownership Month! This month-long event is an initiative put into place by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, meant to help educate and promote the benefits of homeownership for American families.
For many, owning a home remains a vital part of the American Dream, but it’s also one of the best ways to build long term household wealth. Once you become a homeowner, you’re able to take advantage of generous tax deductions and begin to build equity in your home as its value increases. So, when you’re ready to sell, you can apply the gains in equity toward a bigger home.
But finding and buying your dream home can often be an overwhelming and daunting experience, especially if it’s your first time going through the process. You might be asking yourself a lot of important questions, such as why should I buy now or why should I buy new as opposed to a resale home. So, we’ve put together just a few reasons why you should start your new home search with Lennar today.
Why Buy NOW
As one of the nation’s leading builders, Lennar has managed to find innovative ways to facilitate the homebuying experience. They offer financing through their preferred lender, Eagle Home Mortgage, as well as knowledgeable New Home Consultants and Internet Sales Consultants who can answer any questions you may have about a certain community.

Purchasing one of Lennar’s new homes for sale in Dallas, TX can leave you feeling carpet-bombed with big choices and major decisions. Don’t let those homebuying stresses pull the rug out from under your dream to design the home you’ve always wanted.
Interior designers recommend starting from the ground up: rugs. After cruising the web so that you don’t have to, we’ve covered the most important part of your home—your floor.
“I see rugs in our homes as shoes are to a well-dressed outfit,” The Interior Design Editor says. “You wouldn’t go to the trouble of selecting your best outfit for a night out and then go barefooted.”
Well, it is delightful to pad around barefoot in your favorite spaces. Rugs provide comfort and warmth, especially on hardwood or tiled flooring. They also absorb sound. Those are rugs’ functions. Now for form. Rugs can determine an entire home’s feel, flavor, and fun.
In his book, The Curated Home, noted interior designer Grant K. Gibson, offers questions to consider when choosing rug: “Traditional, formal, elegant? Playful, humorous, inviting? Monochromatic, streamlined, modern?”
Yes, size matters. “The proper size is going to make a huge difference in how the final space is going to look and whether it anchors the room successfully,” says New York-based textile designer Malene Barnett.
Designers offer the latest “rules.” Place your furniture’s front two feet, ideally all four, on top of the rug. Textures such as shaggy, sisal and flat-woven add distinctiveness between rooms. Patterns and colors reflect your personality: bold, muted, geometric, post-modern.
Rugs don’t have to be square, either. They don’t even have to decorate floors—royalty dressed walls with handwoven tapestries. And rugs can and should be used in every room.
Whether you purchase a 1,004-square-foot cottage in Lennar’s Trinity Crossing with new homes for sale in Forney, TX or 2,750 square feet in Frisco Springs Royals, choose inviting rugs that draw people in and create pathways in Lennar’s open-concept designs, and, yes, to tie the room together.
With Everything’s Included® in new homes for sale in Dallas, TX, and in Fort Worth, TX, be sure to sign up for mylennar, Lennar’s resource center, for an array of homebuyer benefits.
Like rugs that define your home, Lennar’s got you covered. For more information about Lennar’s 84 communities across Dallas-Fort Worth and the creative opportunities that await you, visit Lennar online or call an Internet New Home Consultant at 866-314-4477.
