Only care about closing homes not quality.

I went in to this experience with Lennar with an open mind even though I read many bad reviews. In the beginning it was good and everything was progressing nicely. Then it hit dates changed multiple times which led to us being homeless for some time. Then we finally closed and it was evident that there was no detail to attention but we were promised it would be taken care quickly. Now two months in and I believe I have set the record for warranty ticket which the majority of them are not resolved. In short I will never but another Lennar home if I have a choice.

This is a very good experience to buy a new home with Lenner, the sale person and mortgage officer Wes helpful and knowledgeable, it makes the whole process very smooth and easy. Lenner is quite a reputable company and responsible for all the mistakes they made very reasonable. Stephen

Overall not the best experience (2nd time going through this with Lennar Texas)

  • Sahil G.
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • San Antonio, TX

My home was delivered to me 5/almost 6 months late based on the initial expected completion date. Original completion date was mid May and the home actually was completed at the end of October. This has caused several issues for myself, I had to bring in my own cleaning services because paint marks were left on the floors and cabinets throughout the house. When completion dates would get changed no one would notify me and when I would ask why it is getting delayed, I wouldn't get answers for days at a time.

Very bad experience with Lennar Builders/Sales person

  • Riverview, FL

Quality of workmanship and materials are very poor. After an initial evaluation of the home, issues were notified ahead of time. The builder manager agreed to solve the issues and by surprise, the manager changed the mind and didn’t complete any updates as requested. After spending several thousands, I had to close with many defects in the home. Lennar didn’t complete the initial walkthrough issues identified and after two months of the closing, they haven’t fixed all issues. Also, more issues have been identified with several tiles issues (hallow tiles/different shades through the home and ...

I was able to complete this purchase without taking much time off of work as possible and I was always confident in my purchase because this is the second home I’ve purchased from them. Top notch quality and labor as I inspected the house weekly and customer service that can’t be Beat. You’ll find your forever home here

The appliances could have been better. The dishwasher was billed as stainless steel but is plastic inside. I had to deal with problems like cracked tiles that were grouted in even tho cracked, a dead tree in front and setting up the security by myself. Spectrum was the worst. After 3 appointments a troubleshooter was sent and all was done.

Over all very good experience. Face to face communication with Derek and Ryan were great. We love our new home. I only marked down one start for quality as there have been a number of items that needed repaire after move in that were missed on initial walk through. Tho this was my first time buying a build home and I had it Inspected by a third party there were still things we didn't find until moving in and to that, so far, all the corrections have been done well without issue. Lennar keeps their end when it comes to the warranty.

My experience was very bad. It started with the first walk-through. I identify some stuff. The second walk-through identified some stuff. It is now been 45 days in the items that I identified to be fixed is still not fixed. Follow up from all of the above is very, very poor. I asked for a price adjustment paid 15,000 more for the same home that sold across the street. overall a very bad experience.

I have never seen a brand new construction home that any of my family or friends bought with as many things that requires repair and workmanship on almost everything is like a first time DIYer. The problems found from our Walkthrough at closings 10/19 have not yet completed 12/6. We moved in 3 weeks after the closing to give them time to finish all the things. NEVER GOT DONE. PROMISES ARE IN PLACE. Will see what happens. The house was not cleaned by a professional cleaner. we got the keys with dusty floor, walls, kitchen with broken cabinets, bathrooms/laundry with tiles that show haze ...

Very poor quality Lot of missing things during the final walk issues are getting fixed only after so many follow ups Promising that everything will be resolved before final walk. But there were lots of missing and left overs during my closing time. I was in a worst mood when closing the house.

They screwed up one of the key features in our home, offered a small discount instead of fixing their mistake. Lennar was supposed to contact us throughout the process to be apart of different phases. Never happened. Several things were half completed when we moved in or not even installed. Won’t be recommending to anyone I know.

The appliances, minus the extra cheap washer and dryer, are top notch. Putting a $200 crappy washer in a million dollar home is just insulting. At least give the buyer an option to upgrade. Overall, the flooring was put in straight, I've seen worse grout jobs. We really have no major complaints at all so far. Lennar is definitely overpriced for a very basic house, but we liked the space and the neighborhood. They gave us a great interest rate deal at a time when rates were skyrocketing. So zero complaints on the buying process. Any minor issues that we've had, have ALL been corrected in a ...

We had to wait over a year for home after promise date. COVID was to blame and supply issues more than builder. Poor craftsmanship overall. Needs more quality control.

Quality and workmanship are lacking. For the price I paid, I shouldn’t have windows that you can feel a breeze coming in, the woodwork was hardly attached, stonework was messy, siding had clear gaps and just over all not super happy with the home. I want a well built home for this price. Speed doesn’t impress me.

Love the design of the home. But the fit and finish is not the best . The molding work is not good the finish painting is not the best. Seems rushed. Someone should do better in over seeing the finish work..

There had been a lot of inconveniences with my property, including the flight I made from Colombia in august because you told me that there was no option to sign in September and where I lost the money for the trip because the closing of the house was more than one month later. Every time that we have raised a question or a complaint, we have not received an answer from the Lennar team or it has been full of references about the deposit and the contract.

Overall Experience of Build Experience

I am a first-time home builder and was not sure what to expect. I was always told that Lennar was a great company, but my experience here certainly hasn't reflected that. No one who pays what we pay for on these homes should be forced to put in warranty tickets on damaged or substandard materials in a brand-new home and then wait months for replacements or repairs.
