         Re:      REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel to Engle Homes, Inc., a Florida corporation
(the "Company"), and have reviewed the Company's Registration Statement on Form
S-8 covering 225,000 shares of the Company's authorized but unissued common
stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), issuable pursuant to stock
options granted pursuant to the Company's 1997 Performance Bonus Plan (the
"Plan"). It is our opinion that shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan,
when issued upon exercise of and in accordance with the terms of stock options
outstanding or to be granted under the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable.

         We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in the above referenced
Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we
come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.

                                                   Very truly yours,

                                                   /S/ Greenberg Traurig Hoffman
                                                   Lipoff Rosen & Quentel, P.A.

                                                                    EXHIBIT 23.1

               CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Engle Homes, Inc.

         We hereby consent to the incorporation by reference in the Registration
Statement on Form S-8 of our report dated November 10, 1997, related to the
consolidated financial statements and schedule of Engle Homes, Inc. appearing in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended October 31, 1997.
