Lennar Reviews in Indianapolis, IN

The initial framing quality, including both materials and labor was the poorest of quality. Our replacement construction supervisor exhibited strong construction knowledge and was very responsive correcting final, cosmetic issues.

The up front contacts and salesmanship were very good; the financial support process was quite poor; the construction is average with many nice features but too many punchlist items to work through; the HOA is pricey and not helpful at all; the landscaping is average; great community and location however; people are almost all friendly and responsive.

They put the electrical meters right by my front door also my neighbors electrical meter is by my garage door looks awful didn’t show this in the pictures

good experience at point of sale

While the builder and senior management have very good intentions and would like the products and services to be excellent, I am not sure the staff at the lower level and executors of strategy and goals are aligned. There were a number of fauklts pointed out to builders during house construction which were ignored and some of these were not minor problems. Band aid solutions or explanations were provided. The Lennar Mortgage process was unnecessarily painful - I would never go for Lennar Mortgage. Closing process was extremely rushed with very little explanations. I have taken mortgages and done closing for several homes in different geographies - this was the worst. ... More

Poor workmanship Poor customer service

The sales staff at McCord Pointe are knowledgeable and helpful.

Bad experience so far.

The refrigerator and dishwasher were faulty by design

Covid shortages seemed to affect some of the quality. Shortages on certain building items have shown up with the make-ups not fitting properly etc. They attempt to correct but product shortages continue and have hampered them.

Repairs that needed to be completed prior to the "needed" review for the sales department were priority. Details that need correction post that review certainly take a back seat. Vendors do not like accountability

Didn't know you can't store anything above the garage in Lennar homes....at least not in our area. I was told it voids the warranty. This should not be allowed. Yard work(sodding) appears to be substandard. For 230/month, the water bill should be included. Lawn maintenance seems substandard.

cheap material and appliance used in home. not quick response to issues

This is my 4th month we found around 29 issues as of now

Responsiveness: Not Lennar's fault but we have items outstanding for repair and due to the Covid-19 crisis Lennar is not doing any in-home repairs. Hopefully when this virus thing blows over the repairs needed will be completed. Lennar continues to build and sell houses so the number of repairs people will need continues to grow. Materials seem to be a good value relative to the price paid but workmanship could have been better. To Lennar's credit they repaired or committed to repair the things we could see.

My review is still incomplete at this time. The quality of the driveway is completely unacceptable and is the reason for my low rating on quality of workmanship. The driveway was poured at 26 degrees on November 13th and I believe that it froze before concrete had cured to achieve a necessary strength. Overall we had a mild fall and there numerous days the concrete could have been poured at a much warmer temperature. It has numerous cracks, chips, pock marks, smears and is very off colored. No other driveway in the neighborhood has an appearance that is even close to my driveway. I currently have a work order submitted for the driveway and am waiting to hear what the next steps are. If the driveway is replaced I would definitely change my rating as the quality for the rest of the house appears to be generally quite good. ... More

Some of the details of work and/or the final touch up of the job needs more attention. Someone needs to check the work and be sure that it is done correctly.

For the price. The workmanship should have been perfect but small things like bowed walls and trim seams not lining up.

The colors on the spec sheet are not what is actually in house. We tried to go get more paint and more mulch to match and it what we bought, per the spec sheet, is NOT what was actually used. The exterior and interior was visible dirty when we moved in to the brand new home. The toilet still doesn't work right and we had a service call out within hours of closing on the new home.

Our house was not ready at closing. However, Lennar came back to fix the issues they promised. It just took a few follow ups. Happy with the end result.

Do not buy a slab. Multiple issues with drywall, paint, caulking and brick. All resolved except plumbing/sewage lines.

Lennar offers an all inclusive package with stove, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator. While this package is convenient, and appliances are name brand, they are at the very low end of the product line. It's important to understand this because the appliances may prove to be impractical for some home owners. First, the stove has a gas operated oven which make cooking difficult. Even the most basic meals will not cook evenly. A dual fuel stove with electric oven would be much better. The refrigerator is a side by side style. The model selected has a very small freezer. Because space is limited large/excessive grocery shopping for holiday meals is impractical. Fitting a turkey or ribs in the freezer in preparation for feast proves to be a problem with this model refrigerator/freezer. The dish washer is very basic. It's louder than the average dishwasher which makes it's use in open space living complicated. Most materials use are satisfactory however workmanship in several areas is baseline acceptable. Specifically grout work is visibly bad. While I believe Lennar tries it's best to be clear and concise, there are always things homeowners discover after purchase. Lennar will not make any concession to modify even the most basic things in inventory homes, no matter if the buyer offers to pay. Buyers should be aware that Lennar does not use conduit when installing electric and internet cables and plans for the cabling in not available. Workers may puncture those unmarked, "open lines" within the walls during construction. Buyers should be sure validate all internet cabling and electrical things are active before closing on a home. Furthermore, be sure that windows are cleaned, and inspected for proper operation and damage. Over half of the 24 windows within my home were damaged. Buyers should also make sure door locks and water facets are installed correctly, i.e. hot is not marked cold and right key turns unlock doors vs left key turns. Lennar will respond to all matters quickly. Homeowners should double check/inspect corrected work. The value of the Lennar homes are normally comparable to others. All in all it's a good buy. ...

The framers did a very poor job and set everything behind. Multiple repairs were required to move to drywall. ”Leaner” was desperate for subs and the project manager was in over his head. Good guy, but he could not meet expectations and is no longer running jobs. We love our home, but we are now waiting for warrantee repairs requested months ago. We have had an overall good experience with the home after being in it for 6 months. If you buy, watch closely as any corner than can be cut, will be.

Very poor Electric placement cheap framing and we can’t get mail got to drive 6 miles to post office. So only get mail on Saturday garage door very narrow third one useless wouldn’t recommend to someone House across street same model week after we purchased dropped price 40000

The quality of the house is very poor, especially the painting work. Although I had many things corrected later, after moving in I still found many quality issues. My friend also bought a Lennar home, but their construction team did a great job, while the team that worked on my house was terrible. In addition, the paint quality is very bad. If I had been told at the time that I could choose better paint, I definitely would have paid extra for it.
