To Our Clients:
Enclosed for your consideration is an Exchange Offer and Consent
Solicitation dated July 13, 2000 and the related Letter of Transmittal and
Consent (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto,
collectively constitute the "Offer") relating to an offer by New Millennium
Homes, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Company," or "New

("Senior Notes") for Zero Coupon Notes due 2004 ("New Notes") and Series A
Participating Perpetual Preferred Shares ("Preferred Shares") upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Exchange Offer and Consent
Solicitation. As part of the Offer, New Millennium is soliciting consents
("Consents") from the holders of Senior Notes to certain proposed amendments
(the "Proposed Amendments") to both the indenture pursuant to which the Senior
Notes were issued and the related pledge agreement. The Proposed Amendments
will eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events
of default provisions in the Senior Notes indenture and will modify certain
other provisions in the Senior Notes indenture and the related pledge agreement.
<PAGE>
Pursuant to the terms of the Offer, holders of Senior Notes who validly
tender and do not properly withdraw Senior Notes pursuant to the Offer will
receive for each $1,000 principal amount of Senior Notes exchanged:
. New Notes with a principal amount of $927.32; and
. One Preferred Share with a distribution and liquidation preference of
$595.24.
In order to validly tender Senior Notes in the Offer, holders of Senior
Notes are obligated to:
. waive all rights to receive accrued and future liquidated damages
("Liquidated Damages") otherwise payable pursuant to New Millennium's
Registration Rights Agreements (Debt and Equity), each dated as of
September 3, 1997 (the "Registration Rights Agreements") relating to
the Senior Notes and New Millennium's common shares; and
. deliver Consents to the Proposed Amendments.
However, if the Offer is not consummated because less than 100% of the
Senior Notes are tendered for exchange or for any other reason, New Millennium
may decide to file for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy
Code and propose a plan of reorganization in which the Senior Notes would be
exchanged for New Notes and Preferred Shares on substantially the same terms as
described in this Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation (the "Plan"). In
order to validly tender Senior Notes for exchange in the Offer, holders of
Senior Notes will be obligated to agree that if the Offer is not consummated and
New Millennium files for Chapter 11 relief, they will consent to and support the
Plan (the "Support Agreement"). The Support Agreement will require the
tendering holders to, without limitation,
. vote to accept the Plan and take reasonable efforts to obtain
confirmation of the Plan;
. not agree to, consent to, recommend or vote for any plan of
reorganization that contains terms inconsistent with the Plan; and
. not object to or otherwise commence any proceedings to oppose or alter
the Plan or take any action that is inconsistent with, or that would
delay solicitation, confirmation, effectiveness or substantial
consummation of the Plan.
