Frequently asked questions

Lennar builds across the Chicago metro, in the suburbs rather than the city. That covers the western suburbs around Aurora, Naperville and Plainfield, Will County towns including New Lenox, Lockport and Shorewood, Kane County in South Elgin and Sugar Grove, and Crystal Lake to the northwest. Each area has its own school districts and commuter routes, so start with the part of the metro you want.

Lennar’s Chicago-area communities include Prairie Meadows and Abbey Meadows in Aurora, Naperville Crossings in Naperville, Creekside Crossing, Keller Farm and Autumn Glen in Plainfield, Lakes Park in New Lenox, Oak Valley in Lockport, Ashbury in South Elgin, and communities in Sugar Grove and Shorewood. Aurora and New Lenox sit in different parts of the Chicago metro, so decide on the area before the community. Ask which communities are currently selling.

Two types across the Chicago suburbs. Single-family homes are detached, with their own yards and entryways. Townhomes and duplex homes are attached homes that share walls with adjacent properties and offer modern designs for lower-maintenance living. The mix differs from one suburb to the next.

Yes. Townhomes and duplex homes are offered across the Chicago suburbs and can be a lower-maintenance option depending on the community and its HOA services. Naperville Crossings in Naperville is a townhome community, Autumn Glen in Plainfield offers townhomes, and Keller Farm nearby offers townhomes alongside single-family homes and ranches. Maintenance responsibilities, HOA services and fees vary by community, so check what is covered before you compare monthly costs against a single-family home.

Many Lennar homes in Illinois include today’s most popular features at no extra cost to you. Without upgrade fees. No surprises. That’s what Everything’s Included® means. It can cover countertops, appliances, smart home technology and flooring. Specific features vary by community and homesite; not all features are included in every home. Ask your New Home Consultant for the features list, and see what’s included for the full program details, or read how Everything’s Included® delivers more value.

The advertised price of a Lennar home in Illinois covers the home and the features included with it. It isn’t a base price waiting for a finished package to be added. The homesite you pick and any structural options still available on that plan will move the number. Closing costs, taxes, assessments and other applicable charges may be additional. Property taxes vary by county and municipality across the Chicago area. Prices, plans, features and availability vary by community and are subject to change without notice.

Lennar groups floorplans into collections, and the collection names differ by community and market. The same name won’t always describe the same home in two different places. Each plan lists its square footage, bedroom and bathroom count and layout, and many are offered in more than one community. If you tour a plan you like, ask which other Illinois communities offer it.

That depends on the community, the home and how far along construction is. Everything’s Included® provides a package of popular features already included in the price, rather than running you through a long options list, so much of the finished package is already decided. You choose the floorplan, the homesite and any structural options still offered on that plan. A home earlier in construction usually has more of those choices open than one that’s already finished. Your purchase agreement sets out the selections and charges that apply to your home.

Yes. Quick move-in homes are already under construction, and move-in ready homes are finished and available. Both shorten the wait compared with a home built from the ground up. The trade-off is choice, since selections and structural options on these homes are usually already set. What’s available changes constantly, so your New Home Consultant can tell you which homes could close inside your timeframe.

Every new Lennar home in Illinois is backed by a warranty that includes workmanship, systems, and structural coverage. The warranty documents you receive with your home set out covered items, exclusions and claim procedures. After move-in, warranty and service requests are handled by Lennar Customer Care rather than your sales office.

New construction timelines for a Lennar home in Illinois can vary depending on a number of factors, including the type of community, your selected floorplan, the availability of materials, weather conditions, and permitting timelines in your area. In Illinois, winter weather can affect site work and scheduling, and permitting differs from one municipality to the next. With this in mind, no specific completion date can be guaranteed at the time of the contract. Your Lennar team can share construction updates as the home progresses. Working to a fixed date? Ask your New Home Consultant about quick move-in homes, already under construction, or move-in ready homes.

In Illinois, Lennar builds homes to the code requirements in force where the community sits, and local building officials or other authorized inspectors sign off at the stages required by the applicable authority having jurisdiction. Behind that process are decades of Lennar experience building homes across the country. Before closing, you’ll usually walk the finished home with the Lennar team, flag anything that needs attention, and learn how the home’s systems work.
