Lennar Reviews

You have to double check to make sure issues are fixed properly to make sure things are working even thought they said everything is fixed…

The team was excellent selling the home. Being a track home builder, the materials quality was. 3/5. The price indicates that. Solving issues is a problem going thru them……there is a lot of deflecting involved so I tend to take care of things myself by spending more money. Great activities, clubhouse and social director planning events. There is ton to do if you want. I’m happy with the space layout inside my house but the workmanship is just ok…..I’m used to custom homes and this is my first track builder purchase.

Don't believe everything that is told to you when buying a house.

We moved into a Lennar home in March 2021. The house is nice and we love the layout. It has plenty of room for our kids and whatnot. However, since we moved in we have found all sort of issues. There was a cracked (missing 1/4 )electrical faceplate underneath the stovetop range, and there were trash from wires, saw dusk, gas line caps, etc. We had 7 windows screen that was missing tabs or ripped. One window was installed crooked, 6 windows are scratched. It took the contractor about two weeks to come out just to assess the windows. They haven't follow up, and no calls or anything for almost a month now. I don't why they even installed the screens if they were ripped or missing parts. We also have doors that are crooked and the contractor came out and took care all but one. He said nothing can be done unless they removed the framing, which is a big job. I'll just live with it. The master sink is crooked, broken/cracked support underneath the bathrooms cabinets. Master bad mirror had a defect, shower door had a big scratch, master closet light wasn't attached, and the hot/cold master sink pipes were switched. Before we event parked our cars in the garage, it looked like someone had work on their cars in it. We see oil stains everywhere, and a long cracked in the cement from the garage door to the back wall. They can't do anything unless the crack is 1/4 in size. By that time my warranty would have expired. Our dishwasher wasn't install correctly. The installer forgot to install the feet (the whole unit was just sitting on the floor), and the seals all around. We couldn't figure out why steams was come out like crazy. GE tech came out and installed it correctly the way is should have. He said DON'T USE THE STEAM FUNCTION if you don't want the steam to condensed and water droplets on your floor. What?! Why even have that function then? This isn't really a Lennar issue, but they did use GE so I'm guessing it reflects on them as well. The buying experience is goo, but not great. I don't know about other builders, Lennar's QA or lack thereof needs to be address, or hire new contractors. My advise to new home buyers, check everything before you move in to your new home. Check underneath the stove, cabinets, sinks, drawers, hot/cold fixtures, check your counter top and island for chips. Good luck to would be new home buyers. ... More

If you are buying a home from Lennar, just know that there might be better options and more expensive. I like the house, the only thing right now is that we’ve asked to come and repair a couple of issues and we haven’t gotten a response back… it’s been about two months since we put the request and nothing.

I have struggled to get the "Exceptions/Punch List" worked on after closing. It is push and nag but still nothing. I am working on escalating now to see if I can get anyone at Lennar to respond and get the list of things completed.

Make sure you get a great inspection and let them fix all the issues before closing

Good price. Good features. Good floor plans. Poor warranty service after move in. Still have a window that won’t lock after 4 months along with other issues. Poor workmanship.

Buying experience was good. Workmanship is poor. Still waiting for items to get fixed, some from the punch list before closing.

Lots of corners cut during the building process. The individuals that I’ve dealt with have been good just a craftsmanship wasn’t

The buying process was fantastic. Working with Lennar mortgage and salesperson was a great experience. However the process was rushed and the build reflects that. On the final walkthrough I did not see a completed house and had to go on faith the remaining items (gutters, weep holes, flooring) would all be addressed having to sign just a few hours later. It took 3 months to completely address the original exception list from the final walkthrough. Additional issues have come up with the response the house is “settling in” and we should wait the rest of the year before reporting. Being a late buyer into the community has left us feeling forgotten and undervalued as Lennar moves to their next development. I wish I could say my experience is unique however my neighbors express the same issues. The community and location is fantastic. The sales team and financial services were awesome. The build quality, maintenance/service and attention to detail is horrible ... More

Builder grade: put in decent brushed nickel faucets, but the cheapest looking chrome towel bars you've ever seen. Builder grade: terrible quality carpet. Builder grade: worst white/gray/pink undertone paint on ceilings, walls, doors, and trim...looks like a concrete basement. There was a huge error in the living room ceiling that they didn't mention, but we noticed it. It took several tries to correct and fix the texture. The Electrolux appliances are subpar. Our Electrolux dishwasher had to be replaced once and the door replaced again, it was almost two months before we had a usable dishwasher. We're still trying to get help with our Ruckus Wireless Connection that is malfunctioning. We hate the tankless water heater; the water in the mater bedroom takes several minutes to heat up both in the shower and at the sink. So, basically, I'm always washing my hands in ice cold water. Be prepared for builder grade and multiple issues. ... More

People are great and helpful but the time line they are given to build is causing a quantity over quality situation putting unnecessary pressure on the workers that are doing the work

we had some question for the contractor , emailed twice but no response.

Interested in selling but lennar buil quality is poor

We have built with Lennar before. The 1st build was a great experience without any craftsmanship issues. This time, we were not satisfied with the workmanship, and we are still experiencing HVAC issues that have yet to be resolved.

These are slap together homes contracted with the lowest bid subcontractors. They do NOT care about quality. They want you to believe you are their priority. Once you sign. Goodluck with any warranty repair. Their contract states they have 60 days and we have been waiting double.

Overall a great sales experience. After we purchased, warranty issue after issue. The roof had 15 cracks from poor workmanship.....still no warranty resolution. Many neighbors shared the same experience with the roof.

quality materials is very low quality

Had a major water leak the 2nd day after moving in. The drywall, cabinets baseboard and kitchen floor had to be replaced. Lot of air leaks makes the house uninhabitable on cold days..

These Lennar people build very bad quality houses which is honestly fine with the one year warranty covering everything in the house but the catch is that they will give you a runaround and never help you out so then you’re stuck over paying for a crappy house

You should know the experience of buying the home was smooth and easy. But after moving in we have had several major issues including cement steps that were not within code and having the included washing machine and dryer shaking the house so much many of our rooms have cracks in the seams in the ceiling and in the corners. Lennar states everything is structurally sound, but we have now involved a lawyer and other neighbors who are also experiencing this. A once dream experience is quickly becoming a mistake

The buying experience was ok. However a lot of issues were found at the hike. Felt maybe the built was rushed. Had I known about issues of moving to Arden (new builds) address not uploaded, mails, having to call to have things fixed at the house. Internet issues. I would have gone somewhere else. Not happy. But making it work. My warranty for everything needs to be extended seriously.

I am delighted to share our experience. Quality is non-existent. Paint is so watered down it comes off on your hands and clothes. Every outlet cover is painted onto the wall. The floor tiles have never been cleaned. Electric kept popping the breakers. Response was there isn't anything wrong, you should plug your Keurig in elsewhere. In a house built for 2025? None sense. (We have had the breakers replaced and that circuit is fine, now.) After closing there has been little or no effort by Lennar. The service request system is cumbersome and almost useless. There are no drawers in either bathroom also no towel bars. Half shelves in the lower kitchen cabinets. Several tiles need to be replaced. Grout drippings are all over, door hinge screws missing, every door bottom looks like they have been dropped, scratches in the very low-quality stainless sink. Roof tiles flapping in the wind. Scratches on the "granite" counters. The list goes on. Stucco around the doorbell, the entryway door lock’s finish is coming off, caulking around the base of the entryway door has come off, window frame on the front bedroom is loose. Paint dribbles everywhere. The pantry shelves have huge blobs where paint has dripped into blobs about the size of a quarter on every shelf. Shall I go on? ... More

Walls not plumb and square. Flooring not square. Exterior walls bowded and sidding severely rippled. Soffit trim rippled nor square. Foundation wall pour is rough and one area whete the form had slipped out causing uneven wall. Garage floor, concrete chips are poping put.
