Lennar Reviews

The whole process was very easy.

Initial Real estate person, Suzy, was incredible! Knowledgeable and helpful in every way -- very patient and personable. Second/third real estate person, Patti, was just as kind and helpful -- always pleasant and great at solving monumental "problems". Ozzie is simply the best! Can't give him enough Kudos -- always helpful and willing. Whole buying experience was "a piece of cake"!

The home was poorly finished. Lennar massively delayed completion, cut corners on construction quality to try to force completion, and skimped on promised appliances and fixtures. I am repeat buyer from Lennar, but my experience was so poor this time that I will not buy another home from Lennar and advice friends against it as well.

Be sure everything is exactly as you want it. Once you close on yours home they are not so Really available! They do respond eventually, Just not as quickly.

First, the pros: 1. We love our house. The floor plan and lot size are perfect for our family. The interior color palette options are all very tasteful and cohesive. 2. We were primarily in contact with Marc and Ryan throughout the home-buying process. We really enjoyed working with them! They are both incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful. Cons: 1. After we selected our homesite but before we paid our deposit, Lennar opened it back up for bid. Although all was well and we ended up with our homesite, it was a little frustrating though attributed to miscommunication. 2. The light switches are outdated (no panel switches) -, that was a surprise. ... More

Horrible experience, will not recommend anyone to buy a Lennar home. Pressure their client’s to close on homes that are not finished and getting them to do any repairs is a hassle.

Overall the house was well built. I found some imperfections in the details to which I got a response of “within the tolerance” or “built to code”. My biggest disappointment is not getting a stoop. I have a cover, but, the stairs were an afterthought because the designers didn’t contemplate the elevation. They go all the way to the front door unlike the vast majority of the homes in neighborhood. I like the included security elements that made me feel safe from the moment I moved in. Despite the imperfections, I am very happy with my new home.

If anything can go wrong, it will. No water, no heat on the coldest days so far. No heat in the dryer because of a faulty wiring. Now no tv because of the same thing. Now the blinds in the living room will not stay up. I am about ready to put this place up for sale.

Once the house was turned over to us, it was hard to get warranties done

The wait time was long but worth it! We love our home!!! Our loan processors with Lennar Mortgage were AWESOME!!!

I did not enjoy doing everything online. My phone calls were not always returned in a timely manner. The builders left sticky stuff on the floors, the paint lines aren’t very straight, the quality of the paint is terrible although a beautiful color. The interior doors and cabinets are trash, the finish is peeling off them on the edges. The dampers weren’t put in, so our downstairs stayed cold and upstairs stayed hot until that was repaired. The sliding door frame was left a mess with concrete mud or something all over it. The garage is too small for anything other than a compact vehicle and I drive an SUV. There is no room for visitor parking because all the people who live near it use the spaces. And the outside water meter lid won’t stay in place, it keeps falling into the hole. Pay for HOA that we were told would take care of the outside of the home but we get emails about winterizing. ... More

Great job overall. Response could have been better by Lennar Mortgage. Would like to disc this further. Deepak

Outstanding experience very professional and Steve & Jamaris was great.

We had an excellent experience buying our new home from Lennar. Abdel

The home buying experience has been an interesting one to say the least. I have owned a home prior but not a new home so the steps involved with the new construction process when I moved in has been different. Lennar has contacted me about all of my service / work orders. The issues I seem to be having are because of issues that are not Lennar specific but more of the contacted work. Lennar has been responsive and let me know who I need to call to get things corrected or had that company contact me.

Ask about parking - rules and regulations Make sure you get HOA rules s d regulations

Issue started from Day 1 after closing and response from Leenar is unimaginable, till date its not yet closed. Very bad build quality, lot of issue construction with electrical material quality

Eldy was very helpful from day 1, worked with us all the way through and was always a great resource when we needed him, would love to work with him again. Ryan S. was amazing as well, loved working with those 2 gentleman. The house has been great so far, I only wish our floorplan was offered with an island.

I really like the floor plan (Splendor) but did not get the elevation I wanted (really wanted a front porch). The premium lot is awesome, over looking the conservation area to the west (great sunsets). Sales personnel was good to work with and the construction of the house is very good. The closing was very efficient and the walk thru process was also efficient. Training and description of the technology in the house was very poor (I'm still learning about the technical items available in the house). When I closed I signed off on a list of items not complete or not completed properly. It's now January 2023 and not all the items have been addressed. I do understand that it was Lennar's end of fiscal year and also the holiday's but they could be a bit more efficient on getting these items complete. ... More

My biggest issue is the fact that for over 400k the landscaping company fails to put landscaping material down before putting mulch down. I know the HOA wants all residents to pull weeds and maintain the flower beds. If landscape material is put down it helps weeds NOT TO GROW.

Sales lady wasn’t ethical. Charges were not disclosed upfront. The townhome wasn’t ready at the closing. Struggling to get the paint issues resolved after 2 months of closing. Poor workmanship

Best overall value, great product.

It was indeed a nice experience

Overall the experience was terrible. Our Lennar salesman never answered her phone. Always rude when we finally got ahold of her she had no idea what was going on. House looks like it was built by a toddler. No attention to details, paint everywhere on outlet covers, my brand new carpet, windows all have paint on them. House was suppose to be cleaned before closing that was never done. Nobody answers the phone to get anything taken care of.

Lennar uses unskilled contractors and cheap materials, contractors and subcontractors don’t know what they’re doing and have this “I don’t care” attitude. Getting anything done or fixed or repaired is extremely difficult and have to resort to escalating to Lennar Head Office. Construction managers and customer service reps all make big promise, trying to get you to close sooner. As soon as you Close on your house, game over, Lennar won’t touch or repair anything. Lennar needs to learn to treat their customers with respect. It’s very difficult dealing with Lennar. I hope that Lennar, some day will learn from their competitors D-R Horton - their home sites are clean and tidy, D-R H uses good materials and their contractors do a better job. Go to any Lennar construction home site and it looks like it was hit by a hurricane. Lennar doesn’t even have security at their new communities, homes are often targeted by thieves who break in and steal from new homes or simply walk into any open homes and steal brand new materials. This has been brought up to Lennar locally and no one does anything about security. All they need to do is , have a security guard or a camera that won’t allow people with pickup trucks to drive into the new community after 8PM or at least take a picture of their license plate. Nobody should be driving into the community and roaming around at night and late at night , might night and past midnight. I guess Lennar upper management don’t care that thieves steal material and appliances from homesites, I’m sure it’s cheaper to hire a guard for 8 hrs at night at $10 per hr but Lennar won’t do it. Lennar used to have cameras with lights on poles in new communities with signs “no trespassing, video surveillance etc””. Lennar has removed all of that. It doesn’t make sense. ... More
