We purchased a home in the village with a closing date of sept 15. Ashley was our sales person and was absolutely wonderful! The house had many issue on closing date that was supposed to be repaired before closing. We did a walk through the day of closing, with an extensive list.....2 weeks later nothing repaired, scheduled or communicated. I sent another email requesting communication. The warranty team followed up. Ken, Isaiah, and Hillary came by for another list. FINALLY, we have forward traction! I am hopeful things will be completed, moral of the story.........construction team is ...

Poor workmanship

  • Keisha E.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 01, 2022
  • Lakeland, FL

It was shared with us that our closing date was moved up due to Lennar’s goal to have 12 homes completed for the quarter. As a consequence, the home was not prepared for the final walk through due to incomplete or poorly completed work. Our realtor had to intervene on our behalf several times to ensure we were sold a home safe enough for occupancy. Paint was on the carpet, dirt from construction was everywhere in the home, the garage was not placed correctly on the track and still remains the same more than 30 days from time of closing, outlet coverings were missing, miscellaneous extra ...

The quality of the products and the workmanship is really very bad compared it to the other similar companies and even Lennar in other states.

They did not kept their promises and I ended up buying rates down and spend more in the closing. Do not recommended using Lennar mortgage.

Not so great

  • Kelly S.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 31, 2022
  • San Antonio, FL

Lack of workmanship is overwhelming. My laundry room ceiling is unfinished because they installed the AC unit before finishing the ceiling. Now I’m being told they can no longer do anything about it. Some of the numerous items on the punch list were not completed before closing and now I’m expected to oversee the completion. All that was needed was a Certificate of Completion to make us close. Our unit was in no way ready at closing and feel that Lennar took advantage of the situation.

Rushed delivery Poot attention to detail

The home I got was absolutely not ready even 4 days before the closing date, and even after closing there were a bunch of details to iron out, garage door wouldn’t open, poor paint job, huge stains on the floor. Lack of coordination since at no point was I given a key or code to enter my home, and was never told where to get the mail keys

First home

  • David D.

  • Lebanon, TN

I was waiting for this review to come to my email because I have a lot to say about Lennar. First off, during the building process we noticed that there was a "water leak" that was seeping and noticeable in our drywall. Lennar said not to worry and did nothing but touch it up with paint. The craftsmanship around the edges on doors and walls is very poor especially with the fact that it is a BRAND NEW home for the price we are paying. During construction we were told that we were not allowed to come see the progress on our home without a lennar employee, We scheduled a visit 3 times ...

Talk to current homeowners to really get a sense of the Lennar Home Buying Experience

  • Daniel S.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 28, 2022
  • Lakewood Ranch, FL

One should talk to some longer term homeowners to get a good sense of the Lennar building and buying experience. Communication on the closing date was truly lacking and if we didn't call we wouldn't know. The attention to detail of the inside final product didn't show much attention to detail by the people performing it. Their stable of subcontractors do not pay attention to the details that new home buyer expects for the price being paid. Follow up since closing with the warranty group has been satisfactory to date. Sometimes we have had the same group in more than once. We are getting ...

Lennar Experience

  • Hanford, CA

The home buying experience with Lennar was not great. We were left to ourselves for pretty much the entire process. On our orientation our Lennar Representative was kind and provided a lot of information but we were never welcomed on site to receive our keys. We were told to just pick up the keys in the lockbox outside our house. It was very impersonal. We did not feel cared or valued. To make matters worse, we have struggled with appliances, paint, carpet issues, and dry wall. Our fridge was installed incorrectly and we were unable to use the water dispenser until two weeks after move in. ...

Exceptionally low quality homes

  • Niravkumar S.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 26, 2022
  • Corona, CA

The worst experience one can have, bought this house for more than $1M and the quality of the house is extremely low. The customer service and warranty services are disaster, vendors takes months and months to even address the issues those have posted even prior to closing the escrow. I have purchased houses through other builders and I could see a big difference in the quality. If you can't make it right in the first place then at least try to be customer obsession and insisting on the higher standard but providing great customer service to make it out as warranties. Call me if you ...

Closing was rushed

  • Chester K.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 26, 2022
  • Leesburg, FL

Most of the process with Lennar was reasonable, but my closing was rushed as the home was not actually ready for the scheduled closing. In fact during the final walkthrough on the day of closing they had still not installed appliances. Because everything was not quite ready for closing the final punchlist had about 50 items that needed to be addressed. After closing it has been a challenge getting the contractors to complete the items. It is now 2 months after closing, and more than half the list has still not been addressed. Of the items completed many of them I just decided to take ...
