Bonita Springs, Florida  34134

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      I have acted as counsel to WCI Communities, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), and the subsidiaries of the Company named in Schedule I
attached hereto (the "Delaware Guarantors") and Schedule II attached hereto (the
"Non-Delaware Guarantors") (the Delaware Guarantors and the Non-Delaware
Guarantors are collectively referred to herein as the "Guarantors"), in
connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration
Statement") filed by the Company and the Guarantors with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act"), relating to the resale by certain selling security holders
of up to $125,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company's 4.0%
Contingent Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2023 (the "Notes") and
4,533,914 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share,
issuable upon conversion thereof and the guarantees issued in connection with
the Notes (the "Guarantees"). The Notes were issued under an Indenture (the
"Indenture") dated as of August 5, 2003 between the Company, the Guarantors and
The Bank of New York (the "Trustee").

      The Notes were initially sold in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Act and
may be resold or delivered from time to time as set forth in the Registration
Statement, any amendment thereto and the prospectus contained therein pursuant
to Rule 415 under the Act.

      I have examined the Registration Statement, the Indenture, which has been
filed with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, the Notes
and the Guarantees, forms of which have been filed as exhibits to the
Registration Statement, and a form of common stock certificate, which has been
incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. I also
have examined the originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of
such records, agreements, instruments and other documents and have made such
other and further investigations as I have deemed relevant and necessary in
connection with the opinions expressed herein. As to questions of fact material
to this opinion, I have relied upon certificates of public officials and of
officers and representatives of the Company and the Guarantors.

      In rendering the opinions set forth below, I have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of
all documents submitted to

me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted
to me as duplicates or certified or conformed copies, and the authenticity of
the originals of such latter documents. I have also assumed that the Indenture
is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Trustee.

      Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and
limitations stated herein, I am of the opinion that, the Guarantees have been
duly authorized, executed and issued by the Non-Delaware Guarantors and,
assuming due authentication of the Notes by the Trustee, constitute valid and
legally binding obligations of each of the Non-Delaware Guarantors enforceable
in accordance with their terms.

      My opinion above is subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws
relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally, (ii) general equitable
principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) an
implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

      I am a member of the Bar of the State of Florida and I do not express any
opinion herein concerning any law other than the law of the State of Florida.

      I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.2 to
the Registration Statement.

                                             Very truly yours,

                                             /s/ Vivien N. Hastings

                                             Vivien N. Hastings
