Builder Makes Alexa a New-Home Standard
DAILY REAL ESTATE NEWS | THURSDAY, MAY 10, 2018 Lennar, the nation’s largest homebuilder, announced a deal with Amazon that will make voice-activated digital assistants a standard feature in its new homes, as well as other smart devices. The new homes will include built-in Wi-Fi, smart locks, doorbells, thermostats, and lights that can be controlled by Amazon’s voice-activated digital assistant, Alexa. “This will be the hallmark of why we buy a new home,” says David Kaiserman, president of Lennar Ventures. “It’s an important step in the mass adoption of all these technologies.” Every new home from Lennar will come with two Alexa-enabled smart speakers, an Echo Show and an Echo Dot. The builder will also give home buyers a complimentary visit from an Amazon technician to teach them how to operate everything. Lennar and Amazon announced Wednesday that they will be opening eight model homes across the country to showcase the technology. “We want to be able to walk into one of these model homes and see how it all works in a real house, so they can see how much it would simplify their lives,” says Nish Lathia, general manager for Amazon Services. “It’s super addictive.” Voice assistants have been growing in popularity. About 18 percent of Americans this year use a smart speaker at least once a month, according to eMarketer, a digital marketing firm. Amazon holds the majority of the market share, but Google and Apple hope to change that.

Sandestin is located in Miramar Beach Florida, or as many like to say around here SoWal (Sandestin is considered one of the 16 beaches of South Walton). The majestic natural beauty here is one to enjoyed offering preservation and sophistication inside a world class master plan community. This is a 2,400 acre meticulously maintained gated community full name is Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, but is a not just resort it is truly a lifestyle. I have often heard that that Disney World is the “happiest place” on earth. Then it would be easy to give the title of the “Friendliest Community” on earth to Sandestin. People here just seem happy and love being here. Our community sets on both the beach and the bay allowing for the enjoyment of both without ever getting into an automobile. By calling this wonderful and resort home (or home away from home) this will allow you to be experiencing, all that this extraordinary resort has to offer its residents. The community is a collection of 36 different neighborhoods, four fabulous golf courses, world class tennis and the only marina in Walton County. The resort is crafted by design for a safe family fun environment. Every day here can be an adventure. This story book like gated community is home to many of the best festivals on the emerald coast. If you and your family enjoy watching fireworks, they are almost a weekly occurrence. The kids will enjoy the cane poll fishing rodeo as well as the Village of Baytowne Wharf and all it has to offer. Not only is this a golf community we are also a golf cart community where the golf cart can be your mode of transportation. You can ride over to Grand Blvd to buy groceries, watch a movie, and eat at one of many fine restaurants or just to buy a cup of coffee at Starbucks. From your golf cart you could also check out the new updated market shops or just enjoy the weekly farmers market. There are no typical days in Sandestin, the days here are to be celebrated, enjoyed and they are full of life. The community was formed in four sections, the beachside, bayside west, bayside east and the village. The community also as a gated community inside a gated community, Burnt Pine has become the gold standard that the other master planned communities on the emerald coast measure themselves by. Just because something is old doesn’t mean it’s not worth having. I know it easy to say that new is better right? Me: I would say…not so fast. So many of our clients are re-falling in love with the mature communities, the roads are curvy and lined with some most spectacular eye-catching Florida oaks that provide a splendid cooling shade as you drive. Today finding the right community is very important to the lifestyle of buyer and some of these remarkable older neighborhoods are just what they are looking for. How many times have you heard, I really like this community but the house is not what we are looking for, it seems old or tired. Today when I list a home that looks like it might be in need updating – I try to find out what it would cost and to my surprise many times the owners have already gotten quotes. In today’s real estate market there are loan programs available where a buyer can purchase and remodel the home all with the same loan at the time of purchase. This has made much of our older inventory more attractive to future buyers who are looking for the best of both worlds “new and stable” Remember age is never a dis-qualifier - the only dis-qualifier is that we can see it.
