This Saturday, June 12 from noon to 4 p.m., Lennar makes buying a home a family event at its Family Fun Fest happening at its communities throughout Charlotte.

Buying a new home is a family decision and this Saturday the homebuilder works to get the whole family involved in the home purchasing process. No matter if you are looking for a single-family home or townhome, Lennar offers the best value and locations with communities in Charlotte’s most popular areas.

Lennar’s preferred lender Universal American Mortgage Company (UAMC), is currently offering interest rates as low as 3.25% (3.33% APR)**, helping make a buyer’s monthly payment more affordable and possibly lower than paying rent.

“We wanted to provide a family fun day for prospective homebuyers to come visit our new Charlotte communities, get a feel for the neighborhoods and have the opportunity to talk to us about the brand new home options currently available,” said Veronica Perez, Director of Sales and Marketing for Lennar’s Carolinas division. “If you want to get into a brand new home, this Saturday is a one time opportunity you don’t want to miss.”

This Saturday, Lennar also extends your buying power with an additional $8,000 to use toward options or upgrades on a brand new home. Plus, on this day only, the homebuilder will pay your closing costs.*

Each of Lennar’s Charlotte area communities will have a range of free food and fun activities for entertainment that will include trackless trains, rock walls to climb, face painting, and tie-dye shirt making to name a few.

“Buying a home is suppose to be an exciting and rewarding experience,” said Perez. “Our goal for Family Fun Fest is to get homebuying refocused on what it should be which is a fun activity.”
