Old vs New Homes: Why You Should Buy With Lennar

As the housing market flourishes with its continued comeback since the 2008 Great Recession, homebuyers are now being presented with more options than ever. From townhomes to existing stand-alone homes and more, the housing market itself is bathed in a green light of abundance.

As a result, the construction of new homes has also seen a gradual uptick, with the annual number of completed housing units seeing a rise of approximately 5.6% from 2018 to 2019.

But does that mean that homeowners are actively seeking out these new homes in their purchasing endeavors? The answer is a resounding “yes.”

“An estimated 681,000 new homes were sold in 2019,” the U.S. Census Bureau said in a Jan. 17 press release. “This is 10.3 percent … above the 2018 figure of 617,000.”

But that doesn’t mean some homebuyers aren’t still on the fence. And for those currently weighing their housing options, we encourage them to look at all of the benefits that come with purchasing a new Lennar Everything’s Included® home.

Modern Designs, Modern Decisions

Lennar’s Everything’s Included® homes feature a comprehensive array of advanced technology that allows you to customize your home according to your needs and preferences. Whether you have a heart and desire for eco-friendly, energy-saving appliances or you’re simply looking for the most modern installations to enhance your smart device capabilities, you can find it with Lennar.

Why retrofit an old home for a considerable chunk of money when you can simply have it ready-made for you?

Additionally, Lennar offers a variety of floorplans that are specifically designed with your family life in mind. Not only will this help you hone in on the perfect neighborhood to further optimize your lifestyle, but it provides you with the opportunity to fully realize and construct your dream home — rather than making yours fit into the predesigned rooms of another person’s used property.

All In The Little Details

Unpleasant surprises should never surface after buying your home. From weakened structural components, to issues of paint or pests, when you purchase an old home, you might unwittingly find yourself dealing with the long-ignored (and hidden) problems of the previous owners. But by investing in an Everything’s Included® home by Lennar, you will always know what you’re getting.

Not only are Lennar homes built to your specifications, but the reassurance of warranties on the roof, appliances, and more will leave you breathing a sigh of relief on your move-in day.

Additionally, the newer the home, the easier it is to maintain its beauty and structural safety. Where older homes require more frequent upkeep — and thus a more frequent shelling of money out of your wallet — your new Lennar home will ultimately refresh your previously busy schedule of domestic maintenance.

Putting Time and Money Back In Your Hands

Between competitive pricing that fits your budget, simplified financing that eliminates stress from the process, and a flexible construction schedule that gives you the gift of time, you’ll find that Lennar’s Everything’s Included® homes are not only the houses of your dreams — they also come as a part of the streamlined process you never expected to speed through with ease and comfort.

So, are you ready to join the growing cohort of homebuyers indulging in the booming market of new houses? Because Lennar is ready to guide you to your family’s new dream home! Simply contact us today to learn more about how Everything’s Included® can enhance your lifestyle. We look forward to welcoming you home!
