Some Quality Issues

The overall “buying experience” was quick and easy, but the problems began as we neared our closing date. We purchased our home remotely, so we did not have the luxury of being on-site during the construction process. As the closing date neared, we soon realized the finish quality was extremely poor (after flying down for our walk-thru). It was clear the trim was installed before the tile floors, so it left 1/4” gaps in some places. The mitre cuts looked as if they were made by a “do-it-yourselfer”. And everything was resolved “the Lennar way” with tubes and tubes of white caulking. The ...

We love the community and area. We purchased at the beginning of the community opening and decided to purchase a larger home in the same community. We like many of the extras included in the sale, having the appliances and blinds included are a nice plus.

I purchased the house after it was built....simply needed a few touch ups.

Relatively easy buying experience. Made even easier by working with only Lennar for the home and initial mortgage. They were extremely patient with my misunderstandings of what they wanted for the mortgage. The windows do not provide as much noise reduction as I thought they would. Love some of the appliances. With time I may change to accommodate my personal preferences. But there is nothing wrong with any of them thus far.

Purchased house jun 30 2023 I wish to share my experience and service work along with suggestions: after you do a final walk through for items requiring fixing please confirm completion prior to moving -look at outside garage door dents, air conditioner dents too! We forwarded additional list once moved in : 2 kitchen doors cracked, coming apart at the corner & sink scratched, carpet nails showing at entrance of rooms, carpet didn’t meet warped baseboard, garbage disposal-no guard ( workman left it at the door for me to install. ) I used side gate, noticed air conditioner grid had a dent ...

We are new with Lennar and are thankful to finally have our family home. Took about 3 inspection dates to finally get our house approved. But once it was approved we were not told until our power went out. Since lennar was paying our electricity until the house was finished. We appreciate all that you do but would’ve liked a call once everything was finalized. So we would not have a surprise power outage. When we moved here we did not get a key for our garage door so we asked about getting a new key or a lock that matches our keys. We were told it’d be here in a few days. Well it’s been ...

From start to finish I was kept updated on details and always knew what to expect. Mark was great. Roberto our realtor was also great working in conjunction with Mark at Lennar. The punch list items are completed, some issues I had to keep reminding them about but overall they took care of me.

I purchased the Trevi Moldel a single family home for investment. Four bedrooms 3 full bath with pool spa and lake view. It was rented by the time I closed on it. Great value for the money. The sales person Jordan was great. The mortgage company very easy to deal with. The superintendent was very nice got the punch list done within a few days.

Extremely Poor Service and Communication

We have purchased several homes in the past, and this by far has been our worst experience. First, we had many difficulties with the builders in order to get the issues fixed correctly in the home before the signing date. The representative who was assigned to us and who suppose to be handling these issues, made us feel like we were in the wrong for bringing them to his attention, and he tried to pursued us that these issues were not valid. We had to go over his head a couple of times in order to resolve them. Very disappointed in the customer service. As far as the actual closing, we had ...

Kara and Peggy in the sales office are BEYOND responsive and kind! They updated me every step of the way and demonstrated keen responsiveness to all my questions and were flexible and patient. Construction manager Mike also very amicable! Business office that dealt with the loan portion was a headache but all in all I got where I needed to be and LOVE my new home so far!

Lennar responded:
Good afternoon, Kimarla, thank you for sharing your experience. We are sorry to hear the loan portion was less than desirable, we appreciate you sharing that with us.

This being my first home buying experience I can say Lennar didn’t make it easygoing like promised. They are quick to contact me when they need money, but slow to get back to me about my questions. Slow or never at all. I will never buy from Lennar again. Nobody was ever on the same page and we were being lied to about things. Plus, we’ve been in the house for two months and already having problems. I wouldn’t even recommend Lennar to my worst enemy.

The experience has been great except for lot of minor issues with finishing touches

  • Vinoop V.

  • Bothell, WA

It has been a great experience with everything included and we don't need to set up anything by ourselves after we moved in. But there are a lot of minor finishing touch issues that I see. There are lot of minor spots on the floor due to paint spilling and there are gaps between power outlets cover and wall. I think some attention should have been given to the final finishing touches.

Contracting the house was seamless. Once we had to deal with construction site supervisors, we had many issues. They did not keep us updated. We had to call them to get updates. Closing dates were moved without notifying us; they changed it seven times. The craftsmanship was awful. Sloppy work. The painting contractors were the worst. Paint splatters all over wood floors, door sills, and tile. Painters never covered roof metal accents so needless to say overspray all over it. Shutters were never installed, chrome accessories were installed when we paid for upgraded nickel. ...
