Lennar aces the test with teachers, public servants in the Lowcountry
March 18, 2016
CHARLESTON, SC – School districts across South Carolina are wrestling with housing crises that often leave teachers isolated from the communities in which they work.
That’s why Lennar is pleased to share what makes Lindera Preserve at Cane Bay Plantation and Coosaw Preserve ideal for educators and public servants in the Lowcountry.
Located within minutes of several schools in Berkeley and Dorchester counties, the communities are now open with homes starting in the $180s, about $40,000 less than the median home price in the Tri-County area according to Charleston Trident Association of REALTORS®.
“Our school culture benefits from employees that live and work in the same community,” shares Dr. Lee Westberry, principal of Cane Bay High School. “After recently being honored with two Palmetto Gold Awards for outstanding academics in South Carolina, we’re thrilled to see attainable housing options within walking distance from class.”
With rents rising nationally and mortgage rates hovering around 3 percent, both communities promise to draw new teachers to the district who might otherwise face lengthy commutes. Each home comes equipped with Lennar’s Everything’s Included® features such as granite countertops, hardwood flooring and ENERGY STAR® certified, stainless steel appliances.
“Teachers, firefighters and police officers are heroes in our communities and we’re excited to offer options with unmatched value and location,” shares President of Lennar’s Coastal Carolinas Division Jason Byham. “One of our goals in 2016 is to help public servants find a perfect home with a high quality of life in the Lowcountry.”
The Coosaw Preserve community is located on 9718 Shortleaf Pine Drive in Ladson, SC while Lindera Preserve at Cane Bay Plantation is located on 117 Lindera Preserve Boulevard in Summerville, SC. For more information, visit www.lennar.com/charleston or call a New Home consultant at 843-514-8295.
