Lennar Reviews in Raleigh Durham Chapel Hill, NC

Slow responsiveness, challenging process to get issues resolved

Disappointed in end quality and finish materials…

Quality of material , paint and workmanship is very poor. If you touch the wall you will get that in your clothes. Walls are not properly aligned. What you see in the model home is not what you get even after those extra packages. Promised verbally that Fridge with washer and dryer will be included but later on denied. Should have that in writing. You can hear the water going down through the lines. For the money it could be better quality.

I love my home, the layout, and functionality. What I do not appreciate is the poor finishing work. The paint, caulk and general finishing work is very poor. We had construction mgrs change and that coupled with the close our year-end for the builder made the process for the walk thru etc. challenging.

Trying to reach service get full mailbox.

This home has so many areas of shoddy workmanship. Ton's of clauking issues scratches on the wood flooring all over the house. Customer service pushes back on everything. I will never buy another Lennar home. everything from the Sales rep to the Construction engineer is only concerned about you giving them a 5 star rating. I have been hounded for months to give 5 star rates.

Overall I would not reccommend Lennar. While I love the majority of my home the two weeks prior to closing were not enjoyable dealing with the sales agent & contractor. They were dismissive and ultimately did not address some of the issues I had within the home.

When looking for a new home, I specifically looked at homes built by Lennar because of your reputation for quality and design. My home and our neighborhood has been a big disappointment in quality to say the least. Clearly, quantity and time were the priority when building and I have been disappointed since the day I moved in. Crooked walls and windows, paint on the carpets, exposed carpet tacks, etc.

I went with Lennar thought I had few other options, based on my first home experience which was positive. This time the house got into series of repairs in first month. Now, I’m following up for reimbursement but the response is very slow

lots of electrical issues and when you call call center(customer service) they are rude and keep telling you that they are trying to reach out the contractor but since they are out in the field, its tough to get in touch with them. we have been in house for almost 5 months and still have issues pending since we moved in.

I can see cracks already within a month. Cheap materials. How was not cleaned properly when I moved in.

As a previous lennar home owner we know lenanr is very average in construction quality and materials. Finishing doesn’t look great, we can clearly see rifts in the baseboard, squeaky noises from the floors. Just that the location of this site is good and that’s the only reason we bought this property.otherwise nothing to be proud about. Lot size is a joke just 0.13 acres. The pace at which the house was built gave us a hint that the construction quality is questionable and true to that our doubts were proven correct.

Overall we like the house but it hasn’t been a great experience.

I paid $20,000.00 More then some of my neighbors for a premier lot . I cannot get out my screened in back door because of the extreme pitch . This lot is unusable as is. I cannot traverse this landscape at all .My 4 year old grandson opened the screened in backdoor and fell out rolling down the pitch and hitting his head on the Irion drain ! I ve spoken to several people from Lennar . All have not much to say expect this is the worst lot in here that they have seen to date and nothing has been done ,no one has a business card to give me no one from Lennar will give me there contact information. to say shady is an under statement no transparency at all ! My neighbors and I are fed up, as my lot directly effects there lots .Water drainage is a huge problem wrap up with all the other problems I have to deal with on a daily bases . This is a 55 plus community REALLY ! To date my experience with Lanner is bad to very bad and keeps on getting worst .I will be seeking help ... More

My back door is not working they war supposed to come back an paint what they fix an have no heard from anyone

It does not seem like Lennar values repeat business and a loyal customer base. Service was awesome up until the sale happened and then it's a downhill. Even the person that did new home orientation was amazing during that meeting, said he all the great things you want to hear, and offered to be of assistance after the closing and even asked me to save his mobile phone number to provide advice down the road and so on - I contacted him five times after and crickets... Be careful with their crew and at the end of the day there's no value for words.

Our Loan officer did not update us about the interest Rate for 5 months.We received email fr Him the 1st time July 2023 and got the last email Dec 2023 that our interest needs to be locked in.We were not given choices for 5 months.I was not Happy about at all with Lennar.

I literally got approved 1 hour before scheduled closing, A totally horrific experience and ridiculous as i had been approved for double the amount 4 months earlier

Low rating due to poor experience with Lennar Mortgage.

This is my third Lennar Home, the loan process is not that great. And the overall experience is satisfactory.

My property happens to be the end unit on the side of the busy road where cars come at 45 MPH. I have taken photographs highlighting the need of the fencing similar to the fencing adopted by neighbor communities in Amberley area who are on the same side of the busy road. I wrote a note to Lennar sales, Lennar land department.. still they are not addressed. Their say is, its not in the layout and cannot be actioned upon. I have been asking the sales team to direct me to someone on the land department to talk about my concerns, I have never been directed till today. It has been almost 4 months after I closed and moved in. Yet to get a answer. THis is my biggest concern. I really want someone from LENNAR land department or someone higher up in the hierarchy to contact me to discuss this issue. ... More

Craftmans ship is terrible. Trim used is cheap wood. Paint was terrible and all over our flooring.

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to pay premium prices for the thrilling experience of being treated like an inconvenience, look no further than Lennar Homes! Lennar Mortgage: Apparently "transparent pricing" is code for "surprise rate changes at the 11th hour." Nothing says "trusted partnership" quite like last-minute rate hikes when they assume you're too invested to walk away. Spoiler alert: we did walk away and found a lender who apparently attended the radical school of "honoring their word." Construction Management: Customer service training must have been replaced with a masterclass in condescension. Email responsiveness? Think geological timescales. And heaven forbid you follow up - how dare customers expect communication! Warranty Services: My personal favorite - the "it's not broken enough yet" approach to obvious installation errors. Backward vent? "Come back when there's water damage!" What a nice treat to save for when your warranty expires in a year. The cherry on top: A month post-closing and the vacant home still offers that distinctive eau de budget paint store. Really ties the whole experience together. Would I recommend Lennar? Absolutely - to anyone compiling a "what not to do" guide for the housing industry. ... More

If I wouldn't have lost my deposit I would have backed out of this purchase. I visited the home site just about every week during construction. I was always finding discrepancies and poor workmanship. They would fix just enough to appease me but it was still just the minimum. A crack in the slab almost all the way across from one side to the other, crooked wall plates, waves in the walls, loose studs, gaps in the sheathing, poor scarf joints in the molding, the list goes on. I told the construction manager that he needed to correct the subs for their poor work and was told "if we're too hard on them they'll quit and go work for someone else". Having some construction experience and seeing the things I saw during the build, I would not recommend this builder to anyone I considered a friend. ... More

Multiple callout provided on Poor workmanship, Finally the Construction Manager, said that is the design of Lennar and they have seen the pattern in all houses. The design of structure is poor. On the day of closing , got the key and opened the door with lots of dreams, happiness and excitement, shattered into pieces looking at the with so much dirt. Called the construction manager, sales manager and they were not available. Latter received the call saying he personally check and house is clean. This is the quality Lennar provides.
