Lennar Reviews

I don't think anybody involved had any ill intent but I also don't think they care much. The new home orientation was a great experience. My best advice is do not close until every imperfection is handled. Also it was a disappointing amount of cigarettes left on my property.

The home itself is a decent starter home. However, there was lack of communication throughout the entire building process as well as promises for things that were not kept. Plans changed without relaying of information. We still are having difficulty with communication and the houses was “completed” 10/31/2022.

The experience was okay. Alot of frustration with lack of communication between the different moving pieces. We would see an issue and ask about it and the response was always, the inspections will show it and fix it... but they were never fixed. Now we have been living there a month and have submitted several requests to have things fixed under the warranty. We have had more no show appointments then actual people there to fix the problems.

All of the people we interacted with great. From our sales person Jamiel to the construction team, Sherri, Ceaser and John. All were caring and patient with all our questions. Again, Jon, our customer service representative always follows up on everything and makes us feel like we are the only ones he is helping.

Home prices are expensive than it should have been. I see lots of metal pieces and broken glasses in my backyard. I mentioned to clean it all but there are still there and now i have to clean it.

The mortgage approval process through Lennar was seamless. Great sales and construction leads.

The agents were professional, friendly and knowledgeable. The house is beautiful. We are very happy.

If you had to put Lennar in the good, better, best category. They would be better. The price we paid was on the better side the materials used was occasionally on the good side. The most disappointing install was the cheap carpet that feels like cardboard. It’s a shame to spend over half a million and get carpet used in dorm rooms The building process has almost zero customizations. If you want an extra outlet, to bad. If you want to insulate interior walls, to bad. The window package is CHEAP. There are tons of upgrades available But they don’t follow new trends like black accents. The expensive upgrades don’t get your better workmanship either. I’m curious to see how things hold up over time. We hope to move in the next 10 years where the house will likely deteriorate. But for now the turn key new house everything included has been great. ... More

Materials changed and fixing issues gets pushed off or not addressed.

At the point of our contract on the home, there were very minor changes we wanted made to plumbing (adding a laundry sink in the garage) and electrical (like adding a few additional outlets here and there); drywall and insulation weren't up yet, and it would be a perfect time to make those changes happen. Our Lennar contacts Kevin and Missy were totally unresponsive; the answer was always, always "NO", no changes can be made, not even if we were willing to pay extra for them. I made multiple inquiries and always was met with the same response every time -- it was absolutely baffling, to say the least -- I'm buying this house, why can't I have it the way I want it? Now I'm having to pay electricians and plumbing contractors and tear into drywall to get done what could have easily been accomplished at the pre-drywall stage of construction. After moving in, our new next door neighbors confided in us that they were met with the same response, but were also told to "pay the contractors who did the original work under the table to come in after hours to get what they wanted done." Again, totally baffled by Lennar's approach. And while I basically feel confident that Lennar built a decent home, there are finish detail issues that have gone unresolved, like rough drywall mudding in places and needed paint touch-up. It was a mad dash by Lennar to get our house completed by their year-end closing date. When it was discovered only weeks before closing that our kitchen island had been placed in the wrong location and had to be torn out -- I'm still not convinced that the new kitchen island configuration is correct. And hardly a day goes by where I don't notice another irregularity with paint and drywall; small holes here and there -- you get the picture. And I'm totally shocked that the house included no lighting other than LED can lights in every room -- there's no vanity lighting in the baths, there wasn't a chandelier in the dining room, there are no lights other than cans in any of the bedrooms. And the placement of the can lights -- especially in the bathrooms -- makes it impractical or impossible to easily install any kind of upgraded lighting without a major expense and more electrical and drywall work being done. We were living in another state while this house was being built, and that made it difficult to oversee closely some of the construction details that eventually would make a difference to us. I advise anyone buying a Lennar home to watch them very closely at all stages of construction, and to not simply accept "NO" as an answer -- push them to the absolute limit to get what you want -- you are the one paying for your home, it should be the way you want it!! ...

Great community, looks so clean

Great service, appreciate good and consistent communication.

Beautiful home at a great price. The quality in the workmanship not so good. I’ve only lived in my newly built home a month & have had to call to make a claim multiple times. Luckily there is a warranty & Lennar is pretty fast with addressing the issue & sending someone out to fix the problem.

Our sales person Jordan was great at getting us to contract and rude, pushy, and disrespectful as we got closer to closing. Our construction manager was friendly and responsive before closing and then dismissive and ignored us even in person after closing. Promises were made all around that have yet to be fulfilled. Very disappointing. After talking with neighbors, it is apparent the company's goal is to close on incomplete homes and move on to sell more rather than selling complete product. Customer service and client satisfaction are evidently not priorities.

Sales process was great, then color choices, tile, brick etc. became an issue. Forced to revert to other choices. Still trying to get little quality issues resolved in the warranty process. Slow to respond, some final inspection items still need to be corrected 2 months after closing. Not being negative, I just expect quicker, better service.

Overall home was completed in time and love it for the most part. Some materials used were very cheap and quality not great . Doors to my office don’t close properly , will end up replacing with nicer ones . Locks to from door didn’t work , nails left in roof , all windowed left unlocked , garage not painted inside fir a house over $630k my inside of garage looks like a toddler built it . Not painted , steps have nails showing , I will need to hire someone to finish . Landscaping not great will hire someone to improve and fix . Paint on inside very cheap .

Not the experience we were looking for. Materials used were not the best quality.

My experience with Lennar has been a blessing and I am amazed on how the process was almost effortless and very efficient. Yuki and Jennifer the loan officer was very nice and responded promptly to my emails and calls. I, for sure don't have buyers remorse.

The whole home buying experience was incredibly stressful. My agent was hardly involved, never met in person, even though she was directly in front of me, and acted as if it was a favor to me to sell me a home; not to mention the actual bidding process is a bit of a nightmare. I used Lennar mortgage as instructed, that was another nightmare of lack of and or miscommunication. Now let's fast-forward to the walk through. The house easily needed another week to be completed. The closing was pushed due to COO wasn't issued. During the push, I had to coordinate and communicate with everyone at Lennar because God forbid they communicate internally. Now I'm closed, moved in, and have a ton of tickets and issues that need to be resolved. The post Sales team is nice and willing to work, but they seem overwhelmed, unorganized, and then my favorite, they will ghost you. The house is nice, but sloppy workmanship, minor and major issues, my garage door still isn't wired, etc. If I knew then, what I know now, I probably wouldn't of purchased this home. At least the community is great! ... More

I have owned several homes in my lifetime. Some new builds and some resales. NEVER have had such a terrible experience as with this home. When I wasn’t being ignored; I was being lied to. I have done my best to patiently work through the Lennar process but at this point I am all out of nice.

I have many outstanding items on my punch list--such as my deadbolts don't work. a cabinet door is damaged, poor shelving has left holes in the wall and the subs they want to send out only work Monday-Friday from 8-4 and are totally impossible to book. It is a nightmare. I took the day off work and the folks came to fix the deadbolts and they brought the wrong equipment-- meaning I have take another day off work with no consideration of my time and danger in living in a house with inoperable dead bolts. Do not sign the closing papers until everything is fixed. They DO NOT uphold their warranty. ... More

My experience with Lennar. Is very poor and disappointing. First I talk to the builder Lance about my sod water unit and I also talked to the Plummer that installed it before the plumbing went up. And told them I had a soft water unit they said it was going to be ok. And it was addressed and I had the system removed from my old home and brought down to the new house and they couldn’t install it because they never installed a bypass because the house has fire sprinkler, the workmen shop is very poor they have to keep coming out to repair issues, they installed carbon monoxide sensor. But they installed it wrong to far from the smoke detector and and 180 degrees, the carpet mail stripe they installed i the stairs we keep on hitting them down with a hammer when we get poked, the power outlets don’t have them in an some areas. Also if we use a few things it the kitchen the breaks pops. Because they are tided together in the same circuit. The house is bigger than my old house but there’s fewer places to store things in it. No medicine cabinets i any of the restrooms. Also another concern. You build i this house to save energy but you installed a A/C unit and condenser that run on 240 volts. The house has some nice things and I love the layout. But just the quality is very poor. I don’t recommend or see my self buying another Lennar built home again ... More

We’ve had many issues with our home after closing escrow from water leaks to appliances not being installed correctly. Getting a lennar rep to fix the issues has been very difficult

Overall quality of work is not present. I did not expect perfection but there are definitely items that lack attention to detail. Overall staff is friendly and accommodating. I would have liked to see better quality paint and finishes in the home.

money what we paid and what we get compare to other home is high. seeing many service warrenty issues.
