For anyone that has used Lennar’s in house lender, Lennar mortgage, how do their rates compare against competitors?

I have not used Lennar, but generally the builders offer some sort of incentive (like $10k towards closing costs) but their rates are not always the best. ALWAYS get multiple rate quotes. We bought a Pulte home a couple of years ago and got them to match a better rate that we found; alternately, we are closing on a new build tomorrow and the builder’s lender rate was a total joke so we went with an outside lender.

Welcome! Like I said, we have done this three times in three years (don’t ask 😆) so lots of experience with new builds! My husband is also an agent and his background is financial planning (he’s a CFP) so taught me a ton about the mortgage part. Happy to answer any questions I can along the way, feel free to DM!

From a financial standpoint in this market, which would be a better approach in Austin -

Additional Posts in Interest Rates

Mortgage rates jumped in the last couple of weeks to 6.28% because of inflation data, as well as the fed increasing rates by 75bps. If the fed sticks to their plans (Jul rate inc if 50bps/75bps; followed by 3 inc of 50 bps), will rates continue to range between 5.75-7%?

After todays announcement of a fed rate hike of 75 bps, Mortgage rates over the next couple of months will likely remain within 0.25% to 0.50% of todays range. Unless the fed throws a curve ball in their remaining meetings, the remainder of rate hikes have already been baked into mortgage rates currently being offered.
