Start Here Before Contacting Lennar
Contact Roland before you contact Lennar or share your information.
- Submit a Lennar form or interest-list request.
- Call, text, or use builder chat.
- Book an appointment or attend a builder event.
- Visit a sales center, model home, or tour.
Registration rules can change by community. The builder sales representative works for the builder.
- Ask how your buyer representative must be registered.
- Ask whether your agent must attend the first contact or visit.
- Confirm compensation and registration rules in writing.
- Do not assume a prior online inquiry preserves representation.
Where Lennar Is Selling in South Florida
This guide covers four South Florida counties. A market page does not prove that a home is available there.
Prices, homes, and promotions can change fast. Check the exact home on the day you compare it.
- Miami-Dade: verify the city, community, collection, plan, homesite, and current status.
- Broward: check if the page shows homes for sale, plans, or a wide market area.
- Palm Beach: separate community marketing from the exact home and written cost sheet.
- Collier: check district costs, insurance, flood risk, utilities, and closing time for the exact site.
Community and Inventory Verification
Use the record for the exact home. Note its address, homesite, plan, stage, price date, and closing window.
What “Everything’s Included” Can Prove
Features and products can vary by community and homesite.
The brand message is not one fixed feature list. Check the written list for the exact home and contract.
Marketing images may show upgrades, furniture, or landscaping. The written feature list controls what comes with the home.
Next Gen Use and Legal-Use Boundary
A Next Gen layout may have a separate entrance. That does not make it a legal rental unit or duplex.
- Confirm the approved plans and permit description.
- Ask zoning and building officials what uses are allowed.
- Review HOA or community restrictions.
- Ask the insurer and lender how the space is classified.
What “Quick Move-In” Means
Quick move-in means the home may be ready sooner. It does not promise one delivery date.
Check the building stage, inspections, insurance, lender timing, closing notice, and unfinished work.
Buyer Representation and Registration
Lennar allows buyers to use a broker under its published policy. First-contact rules may affect broker pay.
The homebuyer must register the broker during initial contact and may need the broker present for the first visit.
Set up representation before builder contact. Do not rely on an old rule or a rule from another community.
No one can promise you representation, commission, savings, incentives, or acceptance of an earlier registration.
A registration may last only a limited time. Its duration is not guaranteed.
Financing and Incentive Comparison
A builder credit may help with some costs. The rules can depend on the home, loan, buyer, and closing date.
- Compare rate and APR.
- Compare points and lender fees.
- Identify temporary or permanent buydown terms.
- Confirm the later payment after any temporary period.
- Review total cash needed to close.
- Read eligible-home, borrower, affiliate, and deadline rules.
Contracts, Deposits, Appraisal, and Cancellation
The signed contract controls your rights and deadlines. A low appraisal does not force a price cut.
Read each plan, addendum, feature list, incentive form, lender rule, community document, and warranty reference.
Independent Inspection and Construction Quality
No single quality grade fits every Lennar home. Review the exact home at its current building stage.
City inspections support the permit process. They do not replace your own home inspection.
- Ask when independent inspections are allowed.
- Ask whether pre-drywall access is available.
- Confirm how reports and repair responses are handled.
- Plan for reinspection when needed.
- Keep unresolved items in writing before closing.
Warranty Review
A general warranty page is not the warranty for your home. Ask for the current booklet before you sign.
- Coverage start date
- Covered systems and exclusions
- Manufacturer warranties
- Maintenance duties
- Emergency process
- Claim method and deadlines
- Dispute procedure
HOA, CDD, Taxes, Insurance, Flood, Utilities, and Ownership Cost
The base price is not the full cost. Build one cost sheet for the exact home.
- Community: HOA dues, application charges, amenity fees, reserves, and rules.
- District: CDD or other district assessments, payment schedule, and remaining term.
- Taxes: estimate taxes for the finished home. Do not use only the tax on empty land or an unfinished home.
- Insurance: homeowners, flood, wind, deductibles, exclusions, and availability.
- Utilities: provider, connection charges, deposits, irrigation, sewer, septic, or well conditions.
- Maintenance: landscaping, pest control, filters, warranties, repairs, and reserves.
County Pathways
Check official county and city records. Also check district and utility records for the exact home.
| County | What to verify | Official follow-up |
|---|---|---|
| Miami-Dade | Exact municipality, community, flood, taxes, utilities, and services | County and city records |
| Broward | Active inventory, jurisdiction, insurance, HOA, and district costs | County, municipality, and association records |
| Palm Beach | Community status, district charges, taxes, insurance, and utilities | County, municipality, district, and utility records |
| Collier | Location, CDD or district, flood, insurance, utilities, and service boundaries | County, district, municipality, and utility records |

A Realistic South Florida Comparison
A buyer sees a rate offer and an “Everything’s Included” message. The buyer checks the details, not just the headline.
- Exact home and homesite
- Base price and homesite premium
- Structural and design options
- Standard features versus model features
- HOA and any CDD or district cost
- Estimated completed-home taxes
- Homeowners and flood insurance
- Rate, APR, points, loan type, and later payment
- Required affiliate use and closing deadline
- Inspection access and warranty documents
- Contract protections and deadlines
A builder name does not control the real deal.
The exact home and written feature list control what you get. Your loan and community papers show what you pay. The signed contract shows your rights.
