Lennar Reviews in Denver, CO

This builder is basically a machine. We paid quite a lot for this home but it has sub par materials. I understand new home buyers are left with even fewer choices. This was like buying a spec home.

I would never recommend a Lennar home. We had to buy from them because we wanted to be in the neighborhood where they were the only builder. Within one week of closing, shingles were blowing off the roof and within 3 weeks we were catching buckets of water from the leaks in the roof/ bathroom vents. I could go on for a long time but hopefully you get the idea. They are responsive to issues because thats how they manage their business, by never doing things right the first time.

It is clear that the point was to complete our house as soon as possible and cut corners. We were given the run around on everything and all involved Lennar employees were more interested in other things than helping us. It takes forever for things under warranty to get replaced and have someone come out to do so. Th Customer Warranty Rep said multiple times "thats all you can do" on things link the staining of the railing, the crappy wood used for our front step, and pretty much everything else. Also, the contractors they used are not very good and they do not care and stonewall to avoid fixing things. ... More

There have been multiple issues since moving in. The front rain spout that goes underground had to be dug up twice, as my drive way was an ice skating rink due to overflow. The flooring was not installed properly and had to be repaired, then the baseboards had to be repaired by 3 different people! The upstairs bathroom tub has cracks apparently from shipping and the manager just had someone repair it. I bought a brand new home I expect brand new everything. The oven is not level and hasn’t been fixed yet. The granite countertops are now pulling down and away from the wall; all that will be done is caulking according to what Chip indicated. The master toilet plugs up frequently with just urine and 1 piece of toilet paper. The requirements for fencing does not match up with where the front landscaping ends - almost 5 feet between where gravel ends and where fence can begin. Front landscaping still not started at any home and no indication of when it will start. The stainless refrigerator and dishwasher look terrible even after washing with special stainless steel cleaner. There is no towel rack in the master bathroom -just a hook, which is not sufficient. Stephan and Chip are great! They are/ have been very responsive and do their best with what they are able to do. Great customer service with those two. Just very disappointed with some of the craftsmanship of the home. ... More

4 months in new home and things are falling apart already. Cheap products were used.

Lennar just does the bare minimum. Not worth it. I will certainly let potential home buyers know about my experience on Social media where I have 1 million followers. The quality is sub par , the people who work for lennar are not experienced. The home barely meets minimum standards.

We were rushed through our final walkthrough. Jonathan was the individual who did our walkthrough with us. There were numerous issues that were not corrected. The drywall around one of the heater vents was horrible and they tried to fixed it by slapping drywall mud all over it when the damage was something that would require the drywall around it to be cut out and replaced.This was brought to Jonathan’s attention. There was a huge void in the center of one of the bedroom floors where it was evident there was no pad under the carpet. The carpet was not tacked down and was brought to Jonathan’s attention, but not corrected by the time we were finished with closing. I explained to Jonathan that we were moving things into the house and they would have to move furniture in order to re-tack the carpet. Jonathan told me this would be my responsibility. The plug for the refrigerator in the Nexgen did not work. I notified Jonathan of this on the day of closing and he told me to submit a warranty request. The A/C units were leveled out with a few clumps of dried clay; there is no solid base under them. A rain storm eroded much of the steep incline on both sides of the house. Jonathan said they would not fix it. At closing, the Lennar Title representative said they would have to regrade the slope. Also, the north side yard is VERY STEEP and Jonathan said they would not install a retaining wall. This is a fall hazard. After closing, Jonathan was informed of what was told to us at closing. He said he would let the superintendent know and get back with us. It has been almost 2 months and I have not heard a word from Jonathan or the superintendent. There is dirt and debris, to include trash from workers in the heater vents, hard lumps under the carpet, as well as under the tile in the laundry room (probably drywall mud that was not scraped off). The wall in the living room of the Nexgen bows out significantly and Jonathan said nothing could be done about it as all of the Superhomes are like that around the air vent. I met with the neighbors, who also have a Superhome, and their wall does not bow out. Jonathan just did not want to fix this like so many other things. The wood used for the railings is TOTAL JUNK!! Super rough, warped, and cracking. SPLINTER HAZARD!! I did try to submit a warranty request but it would not allow me to log in. I then tried about 2 weeks later and it kicked me out of the request before I had completed all of the issues. We let our sales rep know about the issues we were having and still no response from Lennar. We’ll see if anybody really reads though this and tries to reach out! ... More

Bought a show home Was told by the sales person that we walk the home and mark anything that needs to be taken care of.went to a walk through with a couple of Lennar representatives and was told that I bought my home as is they did help with a few things. Me as a homeowner when I sold my house the new buyers walked my home and marked a few things that they wanted repaired as I thought Lennar would do. Also I bough the furniture in the show home a peace of furniture was missing For two months now I have tried to get this replaced but no one at Lennar wants to help! Danny M

Tom, New Home Consultant, was always communicated and was extremely helpful throughout the process. We raised issues during the build about things that were concerns to us, when we received the house the issues were not addressed/fixed. We now live in a house that the garage door opener does not work, the floor in the master bedroom has a creaking sound that can be heard downstairs and outside the room, a tube we cannot put our wires in for our tv because of the sharp turn and no rope installed for us, one stair on the basement stairs that is different material then the rest of the stairs, our dryer vent on the roof of the house was glued shut resulting in errors on our dryer, paint was left all over our countertops and on the surface of the cabinet doors, the list goes on... The house is also not well built, you can hear people walking upstairs when you're downstairs, you can hear tv's when doors are shut and the volume is low, the washer and dryer cannot be used when you're sleeping because it is so loud in the master bedroom and other bedrooms surrounding it. I am highly disappointed that Lennar removed numerous things out of the house to reduce their costs, leaving many things looking unfinished. Financing through Lennar, with Tyler and Maria, was a nightmare. No one would return calls or phone calls until they needed something. I would never recommend going through their financing department if you were able to get the same rates somewhere else. It is not worth the stress. Our homebuyer concierge, Jenni, was great and always on top of things. She provided any information that was asked and went beyond. The Construction Manager, Isaac, attempted to resolve some issues. Some seemed rushed or completed just enough. He is very nice and tries to be helpful. I believe the bare minimum work that was provided was not his fault but the fault of Lennar, saying they wouldn't fix things or over working him. The house is beautiful on the outside and at the surface but so many things were just put together to look nice not to last. David, Warranty, was rude and disrespectful. He discredited and down graded 75% of the concerns we had about the house. David was so bad, we had to request another Warranty representative to help. ... More

A month later and we still have problems with construction that are slowly being addressed.

We have countless issues since moving in, ranging from a gas leak to terribly installed carpet. It’s honestly been exhausting. Staff is rude and unprofessional.

I was told that there would be blindes included for the house but they weren’t and there was NO discussion. Then the rain comes and I was hesitant to close because of the damage. I was assured that all would be takes care of. BUT the. Solar is on the roof waiting to be installed. I think that the quality of the home is not there ... The home that I moved from was built in 2013 and the quality is in that house. You have cut Back so much (no handles, lighting, fireplaces finish, flooring,carpet). The carpet upstairs in the house you can see the seams,When that was brought to your attention we were told nothing could be done; REALLY?. For what that house cost it is disappointing!!!! ... More

Lennar is supposed to replace my driveway since it was in horrible condition when I bought it. They have no problem pouring driveways for the new houses across the street but have yet to give me a date when my driveway will be fixed.

I’ll preface this by saying that I have base-level experience in construction and I’ve built a home with another builder before- so this is not my first rodeo. I will say that working with Logan, in the sales office was a pleasure. He was kind, informative, speedy, and helpful. So this doesn’t reflect on him. But the process by which they handle the build of your home is sloppy and lazy. For over a $700k home, you’d think they’d care enough to not leave orange peels all over your newly laid carpet, leave pizza in your window wells, a rotisserie chicken under your deck. You’d think they’d care enough to have more than one builder call every few weeks. I had 2 in the entire duration of my home building process. Linda in their Lennar lending office went away on leave and never got my loan covered, so stuff fell through the cracks and I was scrambling at the end to get handled what needed to be handled. It’s lucky I’m smart, quick, and capable or I wouldn’t have been able to close. I was also pressured to change the terms of my loan at the 11th hour. The quality of work is REALLY POOR! They slap your house together as fast as possible with zero care or attention to detail. I have doors that don’t close, ones that won’t stay open, yellow tape from our walk that never got addressed. I closed with a long list of items that were supposed to be handled in the 30 days after closing- surprise surprise- they weren’t. Now the warranty rep, Justin is VERY nice and did a great job making me feel comfortable and assured on our preclosing walk that I’d be taken care of. But 30 days came and went, and I got several stock emails saying that they attempted to schedule trades and were unsuccessful so I was being transferred to warranty. As you might have guessed - no attempt was made to schedule ANY trades, and I wasn’t even living in the home, so it could have been easy. They sent one guy to power wash, who showed up unannounced, despite me saying I needed appointment times! Now Justing did try to call me twice over 8 weeks. I was working so I missed his call - and I called him back both times- no answer. I sent a distressed email- which he assured me he prioritizes and always responds to! That he’s trained to take e-mails seriously! Zero response! Just some more stock emails and DocuSigns that I’m refusing to sign. When I built with David Weekley, I was treated WELL! The trades cared and did a good job, the builder was highly communicative, I was involved in every step, the warranty rep handled the inevitable issues like a pro. I was thrilled with that experience! This experience at Lennar made me feel like I bought a $500 slab from them. I read the reviews, I saw the comments on my community FB page to not sign on the house until things were done, that Lennar doesn’t care, and they do terrible work and just sell you - and when you close you’re on your own. I assumed I should take that with a grain of salt because ppl only write reviews if they have an amazing experience or terrible one - nothing in between. I should have listened! Now- I love my community and neighbors, but I wish I could have built with another builder! Or at the least that Lennar would streamline their process to make the customer happy and provide work and craftsmanship that is worthy of the prices we’re paying! ... More

Very low quality of workmanship, low quality of material everywhere.

They need to know how poorly these homes are built and so many incomplete items …

The genex suite keeps tripping breakers. Substituted wooden drawers with plastic. Keep trying to get them replaced. Fireplace was not even connected properly. Still waiting.

Timelines are not met properly, they are just building in a hurry which decreases the quality After move-in issues are not fixed on time and responses are not proper. The promise was made to install full house blinds verbally but now the salesperson who told me is not with Lennar and now they are saying he is not with Lennar and there is nothing in writing, however, my couple of friends/neighbors brought it up and got full house blinds installed. It's not fair to treat one customer differently than other. Tickets opened regarding home repairs, once moved are moving very very slowly. I still have pending work for my 1st ticket. ... More

The buying experience was great, but once in the home, things starting to come up and fall apart fast. The walls are not straight at all, some are very noticeable. The drywall is bad, in some spots, you can see gaps, and builders wiped or used silicone caulking, making it impossible to paint without sanding out the caulking. When we got the house, you expect a "brand new home" in some way clean. Not this one. It was very dirty, so we hired a professional house cleaner. Builders aren't about quality and do not respect other people's property that has already moved in. We had several issues with the builders, and the Lennar supervisor team did nothing or speak to you about the problems. We still have unresolved open items since we got the house, and we have been here for over two months. The quarts top are already falling out, and caulking around the entire house needs to be replaced since they did not do it right when building the house. We had simple wire issues, like not connecting the wires to the outlet correctly or upside down. Model homes are spot on, but once in the built home, it's a completely different story. They want cases for everything, and they won't talk to you about the problems. We have been waiting on a replacement Bolt lock since the move-in, and it has not been resolved because it's on "back order," but homes continue to get built, and we still have not received our Bolt lock and garage window trim. Will see in about 6 months or so to see if other issues come up. Very disappointed with the quality since these houses are not cheap at all, so would expect at least some quality work done. ... More

I'm gonna be honest I love our home! It's a great location and something my wife and I are proud of! However the issues we need fixed still haven't been resolved. We had a call with the customer care person and she sent all the issues to the rep so he can schedule the trades to come in. We haven't heard anything from them. Responsiveness is severely lacking at willow bend. It seems like they are more interested in seeing how many they can get done this week and forgetting about their clients who have already purchased the property. Being told put it on the 30 day and then to hear nothing from them is disrespectful. We take pride in our home however that is not the same from Lennar. Its clear the priority is to finish rather than the quality of work. We are still missing things from closing but it's ok because Delano has it. I think we were told that 10 times since we purchase the property 2 months ago ... More

The quality of materials and workmanship is not that good. The construction was mostly rushed to finish up in the last 2 weeks with lot of open issues. 2 months after closing, we are still chasing the warranty team to help fix items that were open during closing. Compared with other builders (like Richmond or Toll Brothers), quality of home and service is inferior.

Be prepared to move into a house that has not been cleaned and is missing things like window screens, screen doors, garage doors, garage door openers, alarm system, smart home system, etc. Workmanship is very poor and most everyone has paint over-sprays everywhere with many things that need to be fixed. Warranty repairs are extremely slow, communication poor and repairs very sloppy - the company discounts any concerns and typically respond with reasons the home owner doesn't really have a problem

The financing expirence was horrible, the walk through is a joke get the builder to fix issues is like pulling teeth and once you move-in good luck getting them to finish what they promised is a nightmare. They ensure quality and explain that is what you are paying for and it has all been a complete mess

Several items in the house do not work and Lennar won’t correct

I have had several issues with the home that have made me unhappy with the experience. All the breakers in the kitchen blew right away and had to be replaced. Told quality of breakers not good. Also major gaps in garage door that they want a two visit process for. Make it easy for home owners!!! Too difficult to resolve issues.
