A Crushed Dream

  • Little River, SC

Lennar Financial Department and Real Estate Agent where Amazing. Title company Bellamy was horrific, caused multiple issues and were not accountable for there actions. Lennar Build was well below expectations and still has not completed outstanding build issues. Tried to push off on warranty and not close actions on punch list that was created to close with open actions. DO NOT CLOSE WITH WITH ANY OPEN ACTIONS. The one saving grace to my action list has been Zack. He is not the PM one my home, but has taken on the responsibility to complete it. Zack is a Super Hero. His knowledge, morales, ...

Dissatisfied Owner

The construction of a $500k home rates a Minus on our scale. Super delayed process that was poorly communicated. Stressful and limited communication during the build process. Obvious lack of supervision of poorly skilled workers. The home continues to present endless construction issues. Just wished this product was refundable .

Dissapointed

  • Benjamin D.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 15, 2022
  • Carrollton, TX

Bought the home and the move it was rushed. During the inspection the builder hid flaws on the counter top by taping the inspection notice over the defect during the walk thru. Once we closed the build has forced us to go thru the customer care site to fix problems and it has been a nightmare. Customer care rep is unresponsive, has not fixed any of our several issues and when I complained the customer care rep called me and berated me for complaining. 2 months in and I really regret using Lennar. Very disgusted with this builder and will never use or recommend to anyone.

The whole process right from purchasing to movie in was smooth and clean. We had a good experience overall. Sales team and construction manager had responded timely. Slightly I am not happy with the quality check by lennar, it could have been much better.

They Call It A Brand New Home.

  • Tabatha A.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 15, 2022
  • Myrtle Beach, SC

The model home we looked at was absolutely stunning. We were told that we would get the same quality as the model home. That was COMPLETELY 100% not the case. We purchased a brand new home that looked like it was a 20 year old remodel that someone let there brand new employee with no experience do. I will say Kyle the construction manager tried but there was little he was "allowed" to do to correct the issues. The project manager Aaron was extremely rude and arrogant to my husband when we expressed that the house was not 100% and that we didn't feel like we should close on it. We were ...

Terrible experience. Forced to close before property was completed. Still have many issues with quality of workmanship. Unsure of security of property with supposed open membership to non-owners for amenities. Review already submitted with same horrendous experience to Lennar. No response received.

I think there should be more insulation in the walls or more barrier because I can smell smoke On my first floor and it is unpleasant. Other than that I can’t complain.

Love the house, hate the follow-through on punch-list items

  • Morrison, CO

We closed on our house in September. We were told the day before that major issues still remained (appliances not delivered, etc.). We've been struggling with Lennar for months now (mid-November) to handle paint, drywall, flooring, cracked tubs, etc. They say they will fix things, and eventually they have been getting to issues one by one, but it takes forever. Everyone in the neighborhood has this same experience. Lennar does not have enough focus on the last 2% of fit and finish, and does not have enough resources focused on keeping commitments to new owners.

I am extremely happy with my purchase. On August of 2022, I was notified by a Lennar Sales Agent Adam Barton that a home that may fit my family needs was available. He advised me of the price and immediately notified Melissa to see if the numbers would work. Melissa diligently started working on my case and came back with an more than outstanding result. Once Adam had me sign the purchase agreement, Melissa immediately started working on my case (lighting fast). With the hundreds of questions, I asked Melissa she was calm, cool, very patient, and answered all my questions with ease. With ...

Bad Experience

Absurd I've worked with various Construction Managers prior to closing only to be given lip service. Rushed to close and issues never addressed. Now post closing 2 months later still attempting to get items resolved. Truly bad experience all around.

Not all warranty and build quality issues are resolved

  • Kar L.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 11, 2022
  • Bargersville, IN

I'm half year into my new Lennar home. Despite being promised that workmanship and quality issues will be taken care off, they did not fully deliver. There were multiple issues from day one. Most of which are dealt with. Nevertheless, Lennar were content and insistent of leaving simple things such as incorrect installation of dishwasher unfix, which speaks heavily about their lack of professionalism of some of their employees. Dissappointing and appalling.

Next level terrible company and so funny that my first review was deemed inappropriate. No bad language, no threats, just the truth. Lennar is a morally bankrupt company that produces a sub par product. Just for good measure they make you take solar and reap the 26% tax benefit. I am not sure how anyone who works for this company can sleep at night.

Not impressed at all. Leading up to our closing we had nothing but problems that weren't completely address by the time we closed and had to be addressed after moving in. Had a water leak within days of closing which has now caused a mold issue that is taking weeks to even address and our new home being torn apart. Build quality overall for the purchase price is not great in my personal opinion, for example we didn't even get a screen door included with a sliding patio door, cabinets are poor quality, majority of second floor has squeaky loose subfloor, cheap laminate floors and cheap ...

Purchasing went smoothly, but then once in the house and items discovered that needed fixing, well then...that takes some time and effort getting anyone to come back to actually fix it. You have to call and call, then call some more and it still isn't fixed. I don't like having to be the squeaky wheel, but if that's the only way to get them to come back, I'll be squeaking all day long.

We love the home and neighborhood. It is perfect for us. Very few, and minor issues for the most part. The home does have a full warrantee but getting help with any issues you may have is sketchy. If you have an issue you submit a job ticket. You will be connected with a "virtual" customer care assessment... but nothing can be repaired "virtually" so that is a waste of time. In the end you will be bounced to someone that represents your neighborhood in person. Whether or not action is taken on your request is in that person's hands. I had that person throw away my ticket because I ...

Parkside Warfield Townhome Review

  • Joseph C.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 09, 2022
  • Sykesville, MD

It seems like there was a rush to build these homes and to sell them as quickly as possible. Doors are rough and not smooth from bad spray paint job. Trim and molding are rough and bumpy from poor paint job. Wood chips in doors, window sills, and trim that looks like were patched up and painted over without primer so easily distinguishable from the original paint. Dried up paint on glass windows and hardware. Cabinets had scratches and chips. Dried up paint spots on carpet. Just poor attention to detail for a home that costs over half a million dollars.
