By Megan Williams, REALTOR® and Associate Broker | Last updated November 2026
Willowbrook is a coming-soon Lennar community in south Gilbert (ZIP 85298), east of Val Vista Drive and north of Riggs Road, where Lennar says it will offer single-family and Next Gen homes. A Gilbert planning study session in April 2025 reviewed about 26 acres and 91 proposed lots, with plans of about 2,400 to 3,400 square feet. As of November 2026, Lennar has not released prices, no homes are on the MLS, and tours are by appointment. Join the interest list through us so you have your own agent from the first contact.

Source: lennar.com community page, checked November 7, 2026; Gilbert Planning Commission study session coverage, April 2, 2025; MLS checked November 8, 2026. The final lot count and plans can change through zoning.
What that means for you: the planning numbers were a proposal, not a final plat. The commission asked Lennar to rework two-story massing and lot coverage, so the lot count and the plans could still change. For a feel of nearby prices, new Tri Pointe homes at Waterston Central, about a mile or two north, sold for about $926,000 on average over the past year. That is not a Willowbrook price, just the neighborhood.

What is the catch with builder incentives at Willowbrook?
No incentive is posted yet. When Lennar opens, expect these three questions to matter.
The lender. Lennar's offers almost always run through its own mortgage company. You are not required to use it to buy the home, only to get the offer. Jason at Blue Collar Loans can pre-approve you now and price the Lennar offer against an outside loan when it posts.
The rate. A low advertised rate can be fixed for 30 years or a temporary buydown. Ask for the payment after any buydown ends.
The Next Gen math. A Next Gen plan can cost more than a standard plan, so ask for both prices side by side. If a parent is chipping in, decide early whose name goes on the loan and title, because it changes what the lender counts.
Picture a family moving from Houston with a grandmother who will live with them. They want a Next Gen suite with its own entry, near good Chandler Unified schools. They sign up on Lennar's waitlist alone, then learn the builder will not add an agent later, and nobody has told them the lot plan is still being reworked. We register them through us, follow the town's zoning steps so we know what is really coming, and have Jason sort out how Grandma's money fits the loan before opening day.
We moved here from the Detroit area in 2008 and live nearby in Queen Creek, and our office is on Val Vista Drive in Gilbert. We have sold more than 700 homes, and 20 of our 29 home sales from September 2025 to August 2026 were families relocating to Arizona. See our track record.
What will a Willowbrook home cost each month beyond the price?
| Cost | What we found |
|---|---|
| HOA | Not published. Lennar's HOA section for Willowbrook was empty in November 2026. |
| Special districts (CFD) | Not published. The subdivision public report will list any special district, and we read it with you before you sign. |
| Property tax timing | A new home can take 18 to 24 months to show up fully on the tax rolls, so the first escrow estimate can be too low. |
| Utilities | Gilbert homes pay the town for water and sewer on a monthly utility bill. A Next Gen suite adds people, so plan for higher water and power use. |

What that means for you: until dues are published, leave room in your budget for an HOA and the tax catch-up. We will post the real numbers here as soon as they are out.
Where is Willowbrook, and what schools and water serve it?
Willowbrook is in the south end of Gilbert, east of Val Vista Drive and north of Riggs Road, at 2068 E Augusta Avenue. Waterston Central and Chandler's Veterans Oasis Park are to the north, and San Tan Mountain Regional Park and Schnepf Farms are a drive to the southeast. The Loop 202 Santan Freeway is the nearest freeway, to the north.
Lennar has not published assigned schools. The listing site Jome shows Chandler Unified School District, with Charlotte Patterson Elementary and Basha High School nearby. We confirm the schools for your exact address with the district before you sign. The Town of Gilbert is on the state's April 2026 list of water providers with a 100-year assured water supply, and your public report will name the provider for your lot.
Frequently asked questions about Willowbrook
Do I have to use the builder's lender to get incentives at Willowbrook?
Not to buy the home. No incentive was posted as of November 2026, but Lennar's offers usually run through its own lender. Compare against an outside quote.
Can I bring my own agent to Willowbrook, and who pays them?
Yes. The builder normally pays the buyer's agent, but your agent usually must be registered at your first contact, which can include a waitlist sign-up. Join through us.
What will my monthly cost be, including HOA and taxes?
Plan for your mortgage, HOA dues and property taxes on the finished home. Dues are not published yet; we pull them from the disclosure when sales open.
Are there quick move-in homes, and how long does a build take?
Not yet. Willowbrook is coming soon with no date set. Early buyers will mostly be building, and the contract gives a build window, not a firm date.
Should I get an inspection on a brand-new Willowbrook home?
Yes. We recommend an independent home inspection before closing, even on a brand-new home, so problems get fixed while the builder still has to fix them. Then we help you file warranty items in year one.
