The major problems were the closing part. No hard copy paper of sign documents were available. Everything electroni. Bad idea. No on site closing agents with keys, ask me to drive 2 hours to pick up my key to a house I just paid cash for. Want never do that again.

I did re was uest what I thought was a minor addition of a sink in the garage which could not be completed. Working outside and in the garage makes a sink there very handy and useful. Overall quality is good, wo I ld have like a double sink today. Top row of kitchen cabinets are almost usless unless you live on a ladder. Not yet unpacked but things are c coming together. Have yet to spend a night in the house to much unpacking.

Very bad experience with Lennar

I just purchased my brand new house in Stone Manor last month and the AC is not working, the roof is leaking at the front door, there is a yellow stain at the wall by the entrance door and there is an electrical switch that is catching on fire when you turn it on. No garbage bin

Not as good as I thought it would be

Well when signing the papers they had one that was a charitable contribution that was going to come out of my pocket when I sold that. I refuse to sign it and sent it in as decline. 2 weeks later I'm in the moving van heading to unpack my truck when I get a call. You're not going to give me my keys unless I sign that paper. The solar panel the company that they use filed for chapter 13. I pay for the solar panel I did not lease them. I've been in this house for 2 months now and I still do not have my solar panels connected or turned on. When asked when I'm going to get them activated I get ...

Experience to close on sale was efficient. After the close communication was patchy at best and still waiting on answers from title. A little bit of the run around

After the close communication was lacking. Multiple messages on the portal and no responses. Called directly as was directed to a supervisor, rhat just went to an answering system. Human contact is difficult person to person. Electronic contact breaks down when people are no longer with the company and the client is not aware.

Disappointing in so many ways.

  • Bradley M.
  • Verified HomeBuyer

  • North Fort Myers, FL

Our welcome to the community began with not being able to find our keys the day we arrived here from Michigan. It went south from there. Very slow response to any contacts we made. We asked about some electrical work being done and were told we had to get it taken care of ourselves. So we asked (at least three times) if someone could refer us to a local electrician. That was in July—still no referrals. In short, we felt and still feel very ‘unwelcome’ and would not suggest friends and family follow in our footsteps.

Lennar responded:
Good morning Bradley. We're sorry to hear you've experienced so many issues with your home. If you still have any outstanding questions or warrantable concerns, please submit a warranty/service request through your Lennar account. This ensures your request is properly documented and prioritized for a prompt ...

  • New Braunfels, TX

Probably from the beginning working with the sales rep that did the application process with me. After we finish the transaction, the next day switched properties and I could never get a hold of him again it was a terrible experience on his part. The home had a lot of issues and I had to get an inspection twice because they weren’t all completed on the first go round so it cost me double to get it inspected. The day before my closing, the construction manager took care of the roof and the paint on the house and some other issues we walked through before I moved in. TY, the construction ...

Grateful for the builder's incentives for a great house. Mortgage process a nightmare.

Overall I'm grateful and pleased that Lennar worked with me to buy our family home. However the mortgage qualification process did not go well. Way too many people involved who did not talk to each other. This buyer had a huge down payment, no debts and a high credit score, After two months with still no resolution, the Buyers agent had to request that the mortgage and title managers to step in. After they stepped in, it took two days for the mortgage to be approved. Thankful for their help.

We had an overall very positive purchasing experience with our new townhome at Phoenixville Heights. Sean was a very customer focused sales professional who helped us find the townhome that we wanted. Bill was an excellent mortgage professional with Lennar Mortgage and helped us work out the financial details. The walk-through inspections were thorough and well done by Mike and Mike. The closing experience with Lennar Title was very positive as well. Opportunities for improvement include the concierge follow-up during our services which was not timely and lacking in meeting our needs. We ...

Contractors work quickly and not very well. Lennar should build their own homes. There were so many work orders. This was frustrating. I didn't expect to become a construction manager after buying a home. We should get a discount. It's unfair to put that on the home buyer with all the stress of moving.

Poor planning

Safety Issue: There are NO railings on the walkways. This is a major falling hazard, especially for kids and elderly residents. It's an accident waiting to happen. Parking Nightmare: They gave 50 homes only 10 guest parking spots. That's one spot for every five families. It's impossible to have friends or family over. This isn't the safe or convenient community we were promised.
