Ring teaming up with homebuilders Lennar Communities

SEATTLE—Ring announced that it is teaming up with Lennar, one of the nation’s leading homebuilders, to change the homebuying experience by including some of the most desirable connected home features as a standard.

In Lennar Communities Connected by Ring, all homes have been designed with pre-installed smart home devices, which can be monitored and controlled anytime from anywhere via the Ring App, to help make homeowners’ lives easier from the day they move in.

“At Ring we want to continue raising the bar for innovation in community security, and we’re thrilled to work with Lennar to create a secure, connected lifestyle for homebuyers,” Founder and Chief Inventor of Ring Jamie Siminoff said in the announcement. “By building entire communities of connected homes, we are able to bring neighbors together like never before. This collaboration offers an opportunity for homebuyers to live in a home that is designed to adapt specifically to their unique needs while enabling a connected experience across the entire community.”

The Ring Alarm Security System alerts you when doors and windows are opened, or when a motion sensor is triggered, and includes a number of other Ring smart device options such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and a smart plumbing feature from Moen that alerts homeowners of leaks and water damage, or connect a Honeywell Home T6 Pro Z-Wave Smart Thermostat.

With Ring Video Doorbell Pro, homeowners get instant alerts on the Ring App when visitors press their doorbell or trigger motion sensors with the ability to see and speak to them right from their phone. The free app provides hyper-local real-time alerts from neighbors, the Ring Team and in some areas, local public safety agencies.

“Technology permeates every aspect of our lives and our goal in building it into our homes is to enhance the way families live for years to come,” said Lennar Executive Chairman Stuart Miller. “Ring’s mission of making neighborhoods safer aligns perfectly with ours – not only by connecting neighbors to one another, but also bringing an entire suite of smart home products together in an intelligent way that simplifies life rather than complicating it.”

He continued, “Technology and innovation are a core focus of Lennar’s homebuilding and financial services platforms. Our strategic relationships with Ring, Alloy, Level, Moen, eero and others in developing connected communities are an important extension of our strategy. In particular, we strongly believe that the simplicity and security focus of Ring coupled with the company’s aggressive innovation cycle is quickly becoming the industry standard.”
