Charlotte anchors a two-state, 16-county region that lies in the heart of the Southeast. It’s easy to get here from anywhere in the country, hence its nickname “the Gateway to the South.”

Headquarters for eight Fortune 500 companies, the Charlotte area is the nation’s second-largest financial center as home to both Bank of America and Wells Fargo. Energy, foodstuffs, and transportation have also fueled the incredible growth of the past decades, which has led to Charlotte being named one of the “Best Places for Business and Careers” by Forbes in 2013.

Charlotte is a great place to work, and a fun place to live. Lennar has new homes for sale throughout the metro Charlotte area and in upscale surrounding communities such as Waxhaw, Fort Mill, and Davidson. It’s easy to get to this dynamic area straddling the two Carolinas, but once you’re here, you may never want to leave.
