Lennar Reviews in Raleigh Durham Chapel Hill, NC

We are pleased with home workmanship. That said, we are not pleased with the response from Lennar regarding the condition of the sod on the property. During a walk thru on May 5 with project manager, we discussed the poor condition of sod. Up to 4 pieces were replaced and that was still not enough. I have a $115 water bill due, so I know it’s not for lack of watering dead sod. I asked Lennar repeatedly what they will do. This looks like neglect on your part because of when house was completed and watering was sparsely done. The company that installed the sod said it looked fine when they turned the watering over to Lennar. Are there any photos to prove that statement from sod company? This is a stand off of 2 companies passing the blame onto each other. And neither following up to solve my complaints. And in the meantime, this is the only lawn in this block that still look like dead straw no matter how much it’s been watered. Walking in the backyard feels like crunching thru straw! I’ve been in residence for nearly 2 months and the statement about Bermuda grass is NOT valid. This grass is dead according to my True Green expert when he came here in late May for a treatment. Customer service at this point just sucks and I seem to have no recourse. I would say no stars if your system would allow. Maybe a few posts on social media will produce some responses. This has been a bad experience and a big reason why I would tell my friends and family to avoid buying from Lennar. There are 2 many other high production builders to consider. Looking forward to any response! ... More

We were first time homebuyers. Lennar really impressed me because of how effortless they make it to buy a home. Everything basically being in house helped tremendously. The same people we dealt with from day 1 were there until closing day. We toured 11 different neighborhoods and Lennars stole the show. The houses looked great, the neighborhood looked awesome and we couldn’t be happier we decided to buy from Lennar. 10 out of 10 recommend!!!

Beautiful home and great area please continue to build homes for family.

Mark was extremely professional and friendly and made us feel very comfortable on our final walkthrough. Every item that was either noted by Lennar and (importantly) our personal inspector, was corrected. It should be pointed out that most items were very minor, but it demonstrated Lennar’s commitment to quality workmanship.

It was an amazing experience and Lennar went above the call of duty. Professional,caring and meet your every need

This was my first home and truth be told, it probably would’ve been better to go through the builder than have a realtor. Once you get past the beginning part, the rest is smooth. Lennar answered all of my questions and responded in a timely matter.

Trent was condescending and only responded when he was making requests and Mary is a liar. This is my first home, BUT it definitely is not my forever home.

Traci the onsite agent was amazing!! She went over and beyond to get me and my daughter into the home we wanted with in our budget. She is definitely an asset to the Lennar family. The lender John was also amazing he is extremely thorough and made sure all needed paperwork was received upfront. Underwriting never came back asking for any additional documents. We closed in less than 30 days James the construction manager is also an asset the the Lennar family. Even after closing he has stopped by and personally fixed odds and ends that have come up and replaced sod and plants that didn’t quite make it through the drought without me even having to ask. Overall I am extremely satisfied with our home buying experience. The only thing I would say needed improvement was the closing process with the attorney. Closing day is already stressful without hiccups but when an issue arises there needs to be a bit more communication as to what is going on. I waited for 2 hours after signing my paperwork before I received my keys and no one could tell me what was going on.i was just told it was a problem with getting funding approval. Turned out to be a signature on the lenders end but I was just asked to sit in the lobby and wait. I personally feel like there were way too many closings in one day and the attorney was not able to give the situation the attention it needed. With that said Wendy the paralegal there was awesome. ... More

Outstanding craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout the home. The finishes, layout, and overall design are excellent. The home feels spacious, modern, and very well built. We are extremely happy with our decision and would highly recommend it to others.

5-Star Review “I had an outstanding experience working with Jason at Lennar. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely committed to helping me through every step of the home-buying process. Jason always took the time to answer my questions, kept me informed, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel easy and enjoyable. His attention to detail, excellent communication, and dedication to customer service truly set him apart. I never felt pressured and always felt that he had my best interests in mind. Thanks to Jason, I felt confident and comfortable throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, responsive, and goes above and beyond for his clients, I highly recommend Jason and the Lennar team. Thank you for making my dream of homeownership a reality!” Best regards. ... More

I had a great experience with Lennar throughout the home buying process. The team was professional responsive and helpful in answering all my questions. The quality of the home and attention to detail met my expectations and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. I appreciate their customer service and would recommend Lennar to anyone looking for a new home. You can also make it more personal by mentioning specific employees or aspects of your experience that stood out.

I lived out of state when I bought my home and was looking for an easy process being remote. Lennar was exceptional! From the buying to the building, I was given so much helpful information being out of the area. My builder, Ben, went above and beyond to send me pictures and updates so I could track the progress. The quality is phenomenal as well as reinforced by my private inspection which went smoothly. I’ve already gotten many compliments on the design of the home and materials. I had the best experience with Lennar and would buy from them again.

The house is great, and we love the neighborhood. The home is well built and any issues we have had have been promptly addressed. Our concierge was not helpful at any point, and scheduling with them was definitely not easy for working parents. Hopefully they do actually provide a service to others. However, our closing day was a nightmare, with the Lennar Mortgage Team majorly dropping the ball and causing our closing lawyers appointment to run past 6pm on a Friday, after hours of waiting on them to do their part. This cost us hundreds in mover fees while the moving team sat waiting on us in our driveway. I now look back at that day with sadness instead of excitement. Thanks for ruining closing day after all the hard work to get there. ... More

Upon entering a Lennar home, you discover the work of a company whose priority is to satisfy the refined tastes and best interests of the family. Their homes are spacious, the interior layout has been meticulously designed to ensure that every area feels comfortable, the site planning for each residence provides the necessary space for privacy, the materials used in kitchens and bathrooms are of high quality, and every finishing detail has been carefully considered. This is a company that spares neither expense nor resources. It is difficult to find flaws in their homes; on the contrary, you end up reflecting on all the virtues you never expected to find in your future home. It is truly difficult to desire any other house after having stepped inside a Lennar home. — Edith T. ... More

Great house and great experience

Friendly and easy process with team Marelli!

Very efficient and wonderful experience with Debbie in the sales office. She welcome me with open arms and made my home buying experience a pleasure!

The floor is not good, quality of the appliances is bad

True value for money, nice people to work with

Initial sales process was great and very responsive Once we booked and paid advance all sales vanished and services was very poor and rude staff Not much help and emails are very rude after booking No friendly staff

you should have price guarantee or should adjust the offer in a month or so.

This is my second home. I decided to go with Lennar mortgage for financing the home due to all the incentives they offered and this was the biggest mistake. The loan officer seemed very inexperienced. My closing was pushed back and when it was my day to close I make it to the attorneys office and my closing package hadn’t made it there. So I was at the attorneys office for over 4 hours. I love the home and neighborhood. The warranty team is excellent, very responsive.

Quality of the build is not good. In particular, the carpentry is poor quality. Most door frames and window trim is beat up. Doors hung improperly, bottoms of interior doors are rough, cut crooked. Any imperfection was covered with massive amounts of caulk. Every door jamb is cut too high and caulked sloppily. There are chunks missing from crown and baseboards. Anywhere there is a stop on the baseboards is just raw and sloppy looking. Crown molding around the tops of kitchen cabinets, is very wide and caulked at least .5" or more onto the grey crown. Transitions from LVP to tile are not square to the rooms. Anything that was of any concern during new home celebration has taken several attempts to rectify. Jason from warranty has been responsive but the coordination with trades ahs been terrible. Trades don't show up repeatedly, when they do show, they have done shoddy work and have had to come back multiple times. The sink cut out on the kitchen island is .5" out of square. All repairs have been a struggle to complete. Drywall in the garage (I know it's just a garage)is missing a piece over the garage door. Entry at the front and into the garage door slabs are being replaced only because we have pushed for it. Both doors were not hung properly. The door frames are now beat up from repeated service work. Overall I am not pleased with the craftsmanship for the price of the home. Early on before we could ever get into the house I could see from the windows some of these issues. I called a meeting with the construction manager to voice my concerns. Nothing changed. The stairs are hardwood and they caulked all over the edges of the stair treads. ... More

Overall experience was fine with little lack of clarity on rates at the final end of signing.

I have purchased a lot of lennar homes in the past and the experience was by far the best. From the sales person to the mortgage team. The construction guy. Very knowledgeable and responsive about the whole process.
