Lennar Continues Its Money-saving Opportunities In Sacramento— If You Snooze, You May Just Lose

June 2, 2009 - PRLog -- SACRAMENTO, CA —Lennar’s Snooze and Lose Sales Event continues through June with their best prices and interest rates available on select homes in the Sacramento area. As part of Lennar’s Snooze and Lose campaign, the homebuilder has put together the best combination of government tax credits, reduced pricing and low rates, in addition to the energy-saving electricity bill-reducing SOLARplus system, making a Lennar home a reality for many homebuyers.

“We’re offering all homebuyers the best combination of offers so they can start living their dream today,” said Laura Stickelman, Sales Manager for Lennar Sacramento. “As the California tax credit runs out and the federal tax credit deadline looms, homebuyers are urged to take advantage of these offers before it’s too late.”

More than $72 million of the $100 million allocated for new home tax credits in California has been claimed and the federal tax credit worth up to $8,000 for first-time homebuyers has only been approved until the end of the year. Combined, the two tax credits can save homebuyers up to $18,000—but time and money are running out. If homebuyers snooze too long, they may just lose these offers.  

In addition, Universal American Mortgage Company of California, Lennar’s preferred lender, is offering for only a limited time some of the company’s lowest interest rates.  
With 10 different communities across the Sacramento area, Lennar offers homebuyers distinct floor plans to choose from at prices that best meet their needs. This weekend, Lennar is releasing six new homes in Roseville and Rancho Cordova. Recently released homes are also available at Shenandoah at Blackstone in El Dorado Hills.

Three new homes are available at Lennar’s Walkabout in the master planned community of WestPark in Roseville. Homesite 120 features the Spanish-style Rose plan with approximately 2,316 square feet, four bedrooms, three baths and a three-bay garage priced at $377,950. The colonial bungalow-style Syrah, at homesite 121, is an approximately 2,128-square-foot single-story home with three bedrooms, two and one-half baths with a two-bay garage and available shop space for $372,950. Approximately 2,396 square feet, the Pisano at homesite 122 has four bedrooms, three baths, and a three-bay garage starting at $377,950 and features prairie-style architecture.

Lennar’s Vernano community at Kavala Ranch in Rancho Cordova has three brand new homesites available for purchase. The Tuscan-style Merlot plan is approximately 2,768 square feet and has four bedrooms, two and one-half baths priced at $342,950. Homesite 24, the Spanish-style Rose plan, features four bedrooms and three baths for $320,950 and homesite 25, the European-style single-story Syrah, features approximately 2,128 square feet with three bedrooms, two and one-half baths, a den, and two-bay garage with available shop space for $312,950.

All six available homes offer exceptional features including Lennar’s SOLARplus program, combining solar electric systems with some of today’s most innovative energy efficient products and materials. Lennar also includes exceptional design features, such as granite slab countertops with 6” backsplash and full backsplash at cooktop in the kitchen (per plan), 18” by 18” ceramic tile flooring in the kitchen and baths, and Beechwood or Birch raised panel cabinetry throughout the home.

“We’ve seen monthly bills with a credit of $14—that’s how remarkably efficient these SOLARplus homes can be,” Stickelman said. “We believe we’re offering homebuyers our very best selection of homes at the most savings possible.”

Celebrating its 55th anniversary, Lennar has grown to become one of the nation’s leading homebuilders.  With hundreds of Communities nationwide and homes designed for first-time, move-up and luxury homebuyers, Lennar has long distinguished itself by simply including everything as standard under its motto, “Everything You Want, Everything You Need, That’s the Logic of LennarSM.”
