Lennar Enters the Des Moines Market with Five New Home Communities
Lennar, one of the nation's leading homebuilders, has launched its first-ever operations in Iowa by entering the Des Moines housing market. The company is offering homes for sale at five new communities—Cross Creek, Deer Run, Southbridge, Spring Creek Ridge North, and Woodbury—with model homes set to open in October 2026. These communities feature three brand-new home designs priced between $300,000 and the low $400,000s. The new developments are part of Lennar's Iowa division strategy aimed at expanding its presence across Central Iowa. The homes range from 1,592 to 2,262 square feet with three to four bedrooms and include open-concept layouts tailored for modern family living. Each home is built under Lennar’s Everything's Included® program, which offers standard features without additional costs. Lennar Mortgage has also expanded into the Des Moines area to provide in-house financing options for buyers. The company sees strong potential in the market due to its growing economy and job base.
