We moved in to our new home a couple of months ago and we absolutely love it. After the final walk thru there were a couple of things that needed to be fixed, but the Lennar customer support was helpful and fixed the problem quickly.

BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE ONCE CONTRACT WAS SIGNED

  • Bibhas B.

  • October 18, 2022
  • Riverview, FL

I had a horrible home-buying experience with Lennar and would never ever purchase anything from Lennar in my life for sure. Most of the Work was not quality work and customer service has been terrible with a lot of pending items on the day of closing and even 2 months after moving into the house. The sales representative has stopped taking calls. There was no cleaning or Welcome signs put up for my house and there were critical items like internet connection and mailboxes were not considered before closing homes for buyers. There were even lies which were told during home walkthrough because ...

Great builder, but time line pressures hampered overall quantity.

  • Cheryl R.
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • Castle Rock, CO

Overall, we are pleased with our new home and the home buying process. the only down side was in an effort to meet quarterly numbers, the closing date was bumped up and finishing the home was rushed. As a result, the quality was diminished and expectations weren’t met.

Buying from Lennar is overall a good experience. But you have to be ready for a lot of warranty claimed after closing. Everyone from the sales department and warranty department is super friendly, responsive, and helpful. We had Omar as our sales rep, and he is always there helping us explaining the process of closing and tried his best to answer our concerns. Richard and John are our Wareanty manager, they are both very polite and friendly! Because the bad workmandahip of the home we had to call warranty pretty often, Richard and John never complained about the constant warranty claims but ...

Not a happy home buyer

  • Carol L.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 18, 2022
  • San Antonio, FL

This should have been an exciting and happy time but it wasn't. The quality of the work is horrible. The frames around my doors look worse than the home I live in for 30 years. We were rushed into closing on the house and there is paint on everything. The cupboards are a mess. My last home was a new build and looked nothing like this one. Shame on you Lennar for making this a stressful experience. You have no quality control.

Very bad. Never been this ignored by a builder ever.

I own 1 WCI home, 2 Lennar Veranda Homes, and a Terrace home under contract. My experience with WCI was great however, unfortunately, my experience with Lennar Veranda homes has been miserable, to say the least. I closed on one Bromelia in May and am still waiting for things to be taken care of. I have called and left multiple messages and I have sent several e-mails without any respose at all from Lennar. You guys are irresponsible and I can not recommend you to anybody.

Not satisfactory

  • Bobby B.
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • Escondido, CA

If I have to start again, I will only buy ready to move in house. We were promised to close our house house on march and we got the house on September. They delay it for 6 months. Because of that we are paying $850 more every month. Key hand over process is lame. I am buying a house not a toy. They handover the key at outside of the garage and he/she left the welcome goodies bag on the floor. It was awful.

Average Experience

  • Aaron M.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 18, 2022
  • Summerville, SC

Average experience. Closed on a new construction home almost 2 months ago. Sales office wasn’t particularly great at communicating, nor was the loan officer and processor team. Lennar is building at a furious rate and likely running their staff into burnout but I am not a first time home buyer and felt better attended to in previous experiences, none with Lennar. I don’t have any glowing praise to offer. The 1 year warranty inspection will tell the true story of the build quality, which in Lindera does not have a stellar reputation thus far. They did hold to the closing schedule which I ...

  • San Antonio, TX

I knew coming into this that buying a house can be stressful but it definitely could be better with the right help. When i went to see the house Ana was good, however the second i was moved to lennar mortgage the nightmare began, the loan officer Wesley he eas good at the beginning, then there was a LOT of miscommunication, changes of information and to make it worse to be honest i felt i was gaslighted towards the end, putting me in a position where i had no choice but to buy. The person that was supposed to contact me and introduce herself before closing I NEVER received such call, ...

Our sales rep Tony was awesome to deal with. Even though the closing date kept getting pushed out our sales rep kept us up to date and we totally understood the delays due to COVID related impacts of materials and labor. We were super excited to get our new condo to enjoy with our family for vacation purposes. The community had every amenity we wanted ; gated, golf course, fitness center, various pools. However, the closing left a bad taste in our mouth about Lennar. The work crews were pressured to finish the building by end of the month, which also happened to be Lennar's quarter, When we ...

Lennar made our home buying experience easy! After a long and frustrating search for a home we decided to check out the Meadows of West Bay. Michelle was welcoming and allowed us to see all the models available, even though we showed up without an appointment. We fell in love and bought our first home. No more putting in offers and being outbid or finding issues during home inspection like our previous home searches! We used Lennar mortgage and they were available and helpful all throughout the mortgage process. Lennar Title made the closing process a breeze. Thanks to Lennar we became first ...

Another wonderful Lennar experience

I am a former Lennar Associate, retiring from Lennar Las Vegas in December of 2019. I will always be a Lennar Associate in my heart. My Roxbury condo is my 2nd Lennar condo purchase. Alfredo and his team did a great job constructing my unit. There was a delay in competition due to missing A/C parts and Alfredo kept me in the loop. Alfredo and his team were so helpful with my move in, they went above and beyond. Although I don’t plan on moving again, it would be to another new Lennar home.

Overpriced but mediocre materials used in construction and very bad responsiveness to issues. Cabinet fixtures are not built properly, the Carpets have nails poking out and the bathroom showers have scratches all over during construction.

Main house ac was not properly connected and secondary ac was cooling the entire house causing an enormous electricity bill in the summer. Multiple paint and cleaning issues not fixed by closing as promised, but nothing major. Quality is not as high as Beazer homes

Shocking

  • Haines City, FL

We had a rough experience from start to finish. I highly recommend being patient with the team as behind the scenes; they are working with a whole town of issues from third parties errors and neglect. I feel it's more on the contractors than Lennar themselves. Rest assured, Tony from our area has empathy and will work hard to make sure the issues get resolved. It takes some time. Our turnaround for matters to be resolved is about 30 days or less. We are shocked to see a new home is in such poor condition and has so many shortcuts, which lead to other issues. During our walk inspection, we ...
