Customer Reviews

Terrible and embarrassing

  • Zachary C.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 22, 2022
  • Erie, CO

Outside of the project manager who took over at the very end of our build, the building experience was terrible and Lennar as a whole excused away poor quality and lack of communication as just "part of building a new home".

Lennar responded:

You'd think you'd get better quality at the price point

For the price of the home I would have expected better quality materials. The amount of construction issues that we've faced as well as damaged, unfixable items like a completely scratched bathtub is unacceptable. Likely my last time going with a large homebuilder as homes are just churned out as quickly as possible.

Currently being ignored by everyone at Lennar

  • Kristen D.

The whole process was a mess, things that were promised on walk through still not done. I’m currently being ignored by the guy who did my walk through and I put everything into the system and with Lennar to fix not one thing has been done. Haven’t had a functional garage door since move in either and a leak in my sprinkler that was promised to be repaired before move in… still not done.

Overall quality especially painting/caulking was poor. Everything was done in a rush. Did not have a good experience with our loan officer either. Learn to focus on your clients and not just mass producing homes for the most profit. Everyone on our street got a welcome home sign and balloons and we got nothing. Highly disappointed.

I’m surprise you ask. From day one there have been issues. Some resolved others still waiting and waiting. My current (but not least) issue is a situation whereby the way the roof is pitched , When it rains, the ground below becomes saturated and flooded by a deluge of water pouring off the roof. If it were concrete below, it would be a none issue but being dirt, it can only stand enough water before flooding and doing a surmountable damage to the ground below it. I have noticed there were many Sunrise model homes that had gutters installed to alleviate the damage done after each rain. I ...

I would not recommend this home buying experience! Workmanship is not good and many things have to be resolved after moving into the new home. Stressful and disappointing situation! It's obvious Lennar is putting up homes as fast as possible and not caring about the finished product. I think after all things are resolved, we are hoping to love our new home. I just wish we didn't have to go through this process. The initial walk through should be a better experience as well as the day of closing. There are ways to make this experience better.

Poor communication

  • Lakeland, FL

Between the sales lady and the lennar mortgage guy we were going into this situation blind. All my mortgage conversations were held over email or after 9pm phone conversation. It's not a good way to find out closing date got moved by a 2am email and no one answers the phone the next 2 days. Sales lady didn't inform us of any progress on the home only time we heard from her was to get us set up to buy and get our 1% deposit which we didn't k ow about till the day it was due. Moving from out of state they made it very difficult.

First new home buying experience with Lennar

  • Randall B.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 20, 2022
  • Mount Holly, NC

While we are overall fairly happy with our finished home, the overall fit and finish for the price of the home is substandard. We have purchased 8 other new construction homes over the past 30+ years so we know what we should be getting in terms of quality of workmanship. While Lennar advertises "Everything's Included" we found that not to be the case and there was very little we could customize throughout the process. We purchased the house about 8 months ahead of it being completed and had a relative watch the progress. I only wish I was here when it was being built and finished out to ...

I hope this information is shared with other potential buyers. People must understand that buying a house process, is a for-life transaction, which makes the house buying decision a very important one in your life. In looking back to the time when we closed on our house; it was a very difficult road to get to the point where we are today. We had to make sure the final buyer walk were done, and all details found on the house were notated and addressed. in a timely manner. We hired an independent inspector to inspect the house. All issues found by the independent inspector were mostly ...

Fast builds - lots of issues. Builders don't care about the quality only quantity.

  • Gilberto C.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 16, 2022
  • Commerce City, CO

The buying experience was great, but once in the home, things starting to come up and fall apart fast. The walls are not straight at all, some are very noticeable. The drywall is bad, in some spots, you can see gaps, and builders wiped or used silicone caulking, making it impossible to paint without sanding out the caulking. When we got the house, you expect a "brand new home" in some way clean. Not this one. It was very dirty, so we hired a professional house cleaner. Builders aren't about quality and do not respect other people's property that has already moved in. We had several issues ...
