Overall, a good experience

Overall, a good experience. Main recommendation for area of improvement is oversight / quality control from the contractors. Many, MANY of the warranty issues post-closing could have been addressed with just better quality assurance by Lennar during the build process. In particular the ground/concrete work and framing. Due to lack of quality assurance, many measurements are off from the renderings, including un-even floors and walls.

Home buying process at Lennar is worthy I did not expect that we will have our first home at Lennar Quartz Ranch Meadow walk Menifee. Lennar team made our dream house became possible. Especially the guidance and assistance that we received from Gail (Lennar agent) and Shawn (lender), They are very2 nice person and helpful from their heart. I give my 100 % trust to them and 100 % willing to refer to my friends and relatives in case they are interested in buying home at Lennar.

Everything so far has worked out for me here in my new home. The only problem my head was the amount that I had to come to closing had changed on me twice with being in contact with my son who also purchased a home in Charlotte from Lennar homes also bringing only $12,000 to the table at closing where I had to bring, I think it was 58,000 closing. I felt that I was paying way too much. It sound good from the beginning but I had to go in so far into the purchasing of this home. I could’ve backed out but Christy who worked with me? Who is my loan officer Coach me into the process of holding on ...

Poor communication and workmanship

The workmanship was poor, drywall imperfections everywhere and gaps in trim. Pretty disappointed. I have also had very little communication from the sales and warannty team. I bought a home with David Weekley a year ago so I have a good baseline understanding of the process and Lennar's experience was far inferior to David Weekley's.

Beware of the quality of work done! Lennar just contract everything to third parties. Quality depends on the mercy of third party contractors workmanship. When you leisurely inspect yourself you will find several issues/problems. I would avoid Lennar given a chance!

Overall very low quality home

  • Sonal J.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • September 27, 2023
  • Lafayette, CO

The quality of the home is very poor compared to my last home which was built by Richmond. There are cracks in the garage and basement. The appliance quality is not good. One of the windows in the closet is overlaid with drywall. I didn't even know that window existed. I would strongly suggest Lennar not make money off customers by making them pay/lease for the solar systems. I had a bigger solar system in my old home and I paid for half the price that Lennar/Sunnova is charging us. Please, please don't profit from us in the name of the environment. We will bet better solar panels at half ...

We've a bunch of issues found after and before closing date. They were not addressed completely and getting them fixed is nightmare. Worst experience with both the properties that bought from lennar at garner & raleigh. Felt like never do business with this builder again!

Disappointed from start to finish

  • Chad R.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • September 27, 2023
  • Mount Dora, FL

My friend/real estate agent owned and sold many Lennar homes, so we had a first hand view into the process going into it. From start to finish communication was very poor and even worse within the Lennar team. Each individual we worked with was pretty good, but collectively it was a total mess. There are too many examples to give and I’ve already given Lennar so much of my time that I feel like I should be an employee. I’m convinced that our closing would not have happened when scheduled (Lennar cancelled 3 closings prior, last minute without warning - so yes we had already moved out of our ...

Good afternoon Chad, thank you for sharing your experience. We apologize for the poor communication you experienced.

they are pushing these houses out so fast that a lot of things aren’t finished by closing and the final product is rushed. workers don’t take pride in their work and very sloppy. glue on floors, paint on tile and granite. Paint not even finished in some areas. no pride taken in their work and appears they are hiring people who don’t really know how to built. pieces being cut to small and still using those pieces. my cabinets have dents in them, like they had been dropped and still used. cracks in floor before moving in. door knobs don’t work right. sockets and lights put on crooked and not ...

After first home inspection managed to find dozens of flows, while during second home inspections, only few items has been fixed while other ones are still pending month after move in. On top of that other issues starting popping up due to craftsmanship and bad material. Very disappointed with complete process.

Decent value for the money . Read your contract you don't get all what you see in there show houses. Lucky I'm not a lawyer there would probably be a class action suit.

We were very fortunate to find the home that we did. We lived in California, but wanted to be closer and able to help with our daughter's second baby in Colorado. We found this house online and our daughter FaceTimed us as she took a tour of the house. We both wanted it right away, so we went through the process of buying the house. Lennar made it so easy for us and showed us the steps of building the house along the way, so we felt involved and could really see what we were getting. In just over two months, we were ready to move into a newly built home! We drove to Colorado and were ...

Going through Lennar for the mortgage got a better rate, but their people have no common sense. Totally aggravating. Closing was ok. Terrible follow up on punch list items. No call backs. Been in for over a month and they have disappeared, but still building across the street. I would not buy from them again.
