Lennar Reviews

Build Quality is a 2/10, and that’s being generous. They cut corners and use the cheapest options available. Communication is often short and their staff will not give you a concrete answer about any issues. The contractors leave out a lot of trash, food, and building materials, and when it blows into your yard or property area, they do not care and do not clean it up. The sod/grass they gave our entire community was dead upon arrival and it took them over a month to deliver it when it was supposed to be delivered 5-12 days after closing. Our home was not cleaned prior to our arrival; it had construction dust everywhere, sticky spots all over the floor, and stains in our carpet. These homes are way over priced for the quality they provide. Lennar also tried to deny me my right to a second inspection until my realtor fought with them and showed them the law. If you can, pick anyone other than Lennar! ... More

Had a really bad experience, the sales person lie to us, was misleading and overall the experience was awful. The materials are cheap and the work is fast done, the pain the workmanship is poorly done and fast way done, when you are paying almost a half of million for your home you expect to be done properly, just very disappointed and will not recommend it to anyone not even my worst enemy

Can’t believe Lennar would want me to reiterate the nightmare of an experience home buying at Willow Springs has been. Fraudulent actions on so many levels, and a home that has had numerous issues within the first week of moving in. Non responsive customer service department. Love the location, but absolutely shocked at the multitude of issues upon move in, and the fact that they are still unresolved six weeks later!

Was promised to have a meeting with the warranty guy and that never happened.

Make sure to check everything before closing. They will rush you saying you will miss the closing by promising we will do it later. After closing, they will change it saying you have to reach out to warranty team. This is ridiculous. Hvac switches are interchanged, light dome is missing. Backyard landscaping screwed up. Lot more to say.. Sales person involve in everything and when you say something is not right, the response is let construction team handles it. Shame!!

I recently bought a home with Lennar what started a smooth process quickly went sour.. As expected the lender needed a lot of information and documentation which was fine but as time went on they kept going back and fourth on what they needed even asking for forms that were not available and disregarding the documents I sent that had the information they were looking for although a long process and poor expectations being set I understand it’s a lot to work with but could have been made easier and more coordinated. When I finally closed on the hike after changing the expected move in date twice and doing the final walkthrough the house was a wreck. Mud all throughout the house and walls, a small hole in the wall, caulking removed in large areas, light figure hanging from the ceiling, someone used the bathroom and don’t flush their feces, along with trash laying around the house and more if I’m being honest I thought I was in the wrong house. I was promised the house would be cleaned and the driveway/sidewalk power washed the morning of closing and clearly neither were done. I submitted a claim to have texture redone in two spots and that was done but then was promised the painters would come the following Tuesday. Tuesday came and I’m sure you can already guess what happened. No communication was made or effort to reschedule the paint for the texture and I am still currently waiting. I let them know and got no response. Everything that was promised to me was not received the bare minimum was not received I truly was very unhappy with this experience especially it being my first home. ... More

Constant threats of losing your deposit even though they didn't approve you and sends you to another place to get approved very sketchy. They approve you even though you cant actually afford a property to make a sale. The house itself was way overpriced for the area in what you actually get, no fans anywhere in the home and all bedrooms don't even have lights wtf is that. A bunch of damage that was identified through the walkthroughs that still have not been fixed and its been 3-4 months already. They leave you with a dirt backyard no grass or anything and left a BUNCH of construction trash throughout the backyard. Ive bought 2 homes before this and by far the worst experience I've ever had but hey they got the sale they wanted. Walkthrough guy was dale, made a bunch of promises to fix things and never does. ... More

It was difficult getting anyone when you needed answers to immediate questions, always had to leave messages and wait for responses. It was nerve wrecking to wait as needed answers to make informed decisions.

Not response, dismissive, poor communication, hiding issues

Construction quality is very poor. When issues are bring to construction manager he states that is going to be fix but most is not being done yet. My AC just stop working and contact the construction manages and he send a ticket to the company that install it, and now they are saying that I'm going to be charged for them to go and look what is the problem, I just move in and it is under warranty but still being charged. Hope all the issues get resolved but have almost no faint in the construction people and if the same people who did it wrong is sent to fix it, I don't see how is going to be resolved. So far it's being a bad experience and I do not recommend to buy a house at this location ... More

I’ve been terribly disappointed in the build quality of this house overall. The whole house feels rushed. The garage was left in terrible shape. The drywall tape isn’t fully secured to the wall. They used mud to cover big gaps around light fixtures, windows, and calk around door panels. The furnace was labeled incorrectly in the fuse panel, which was discovered because it kept blowing the fuse. When the electrician came to fix it he looked at the furnace and found it was wired incorrectly. Wires weren’t tightened down causing the power to arc, and trip the fuse. There is a full size wood nail sticking out through my stairs about 1.5 inches. The lamp post wasn’t completely installed, and tightened down. There was a bad electrical socket installed in the kitchen causing a loss of power to other sockets. The problem is the bad socket was covered with drywall so no one even knew it was there. The airflow on the furnace was marked the wrong direction so for 2 months I had the filters installed backwards. I’m pretty sure a light in the hallway is wired to the incorrect switch. I’ve been here for just over 2 months and every week there is a new discovery of a problem caused by poor craftsmanship. Big regrets buying this overpriced house. ... More

Terrible management yard looks terrible couldn’t answer any questions and walked out

Poor craftsmanship and low budget materials and design decisions. The sales team only cares about one thing; taking your money and the construction / install team do not take any pride in their work. The communication between all departments was terrible. They are all reactive and not proactive in more ways than one. If I had to do it all over again I would not buy a home with Lennar. I do not recommend this company and if know anyone considering in purchasing a home with Lennar I would advise them to reconsider.

The home loan experience was horrible with lennar. So many issues with the house after 60 days and still not resolved. Hopefully they will come and fix some issues soon. Some repairs are still waiting to get fixed and I’m sure they already forgot what ones. They told me after 30 days the painters will come in and do a touch up. Still have not seen them yet. My wife went and bought a bucket of paint to do our own touch ups. Not happy about that at all. Poor craftsman ship with the home in general.

In side Drywall filling is worse, we can able to hear the fan noise in bathroom from the attic. Even if the exhaust fan is on in any bathroom, we can able to hear the noice in Sittings area or in the Kitchen. Our Rented Apartment is much better in terms of privacy( we cannot hear the people chatting voice from one Bedroom to another.) I have asked the same with construction manager and he skipped to answer on this issue. Over, my experience with Lenner is worse.

Tom, New Home Consultant, was always communicated and was extremely helpful throughout the process. We raised issues during the build about things that were concerns to us, when we received the house the issues were not addressed/fixed. We now live in a house that the garage door opener does not work, the floor in the master bedroom has a creaking sound that can be heard downstairs and outside the room, a tube we cannot put our wires in for our tv because of the sharp turn and no rope installed for us, one stair on the basement stairs that is different material then the rest of the stairs, our dryer vent on the roof of the house was glued shut resulting in errors on our dryer, paint was left all over our countertops and on the surface of the cabinet doors, the list goes on... The house is also not well built, you can hear people walking upstairs when you're downstairs, you can hear tv's when doors are shut and the volume is low, the washer and dryer cannot be used when you're sleeping because it is so loud in the master bedroom and other bedrooms surrounding it. I am highly disappointed that Lennar removed numerous things out of the house to reduce their costs, leaving many things looking unfinished. Financing through Lennar, with Tyler and Maria, was a nightmare. No one would return calls or phone calls until they needed something. I would never recommend going through their financing department if you were able to get the same rates somewhere else. It is not worth the stress. Our homebuyer concierge, Jenni, was great and always on top of things. She provided any information that was asked and went beyond. The Construction Manager, Isaac, attempted to resolve some issues. Some seemed rushed or completed just enough. He is very nice and tries to be helpful. I believe the bare minimum work that was provided was not his fault but the fault of Lennar, saying they wouldn't fix things or over working him. The house is beautiful on the outside and at the surface but so many things were just put together to look nice not to last. David, Warranty, was rude and disrespectful. He discredited and down graded 75% of the concerns we had about the house. David was so bad, we had to request another Warranty representative to help. ... More

Not worth the price. Workmanship and quality are poor, and customer service after closing is terrible. Find another builder.

It has not been a good experience. Prior to moving many issues were noted during walkthrough and not fixed. Over a month since I moved in and still complaining about things and some yet to be fixed

Everything started well, but there were issues at our 1st walk through that were never addressed. Windows and sliding doors were not aligned, chips in paint, chips n bath tub, chip in flooring. By second walk through things were still not fix Mark said check it off so you close and we will come fix any remaining issues…… Not the case the process to submit tickets is terrible and the follow up was worse. The biggest issue wears an electrical breaker was going off at the walk through. I identified it and asked for it to be investigated, at the second walk through the only fix was that the breakers was reset, then tripped again. The electrician was called and the wire was fried, he stated it was a big fire risk and good thing we didn’t keep resetting the breaker. He was to update the build and that never took place. Spoke to mark 4 weeks after close to follow up and he said put a ticket in even though the original ticket was never closed. It was finally fix, my wife and I felt dismissed because now that we closed our concerns are not priority once the money is transferred. After closing, comes to find out mortgage company didn’t complete the final credit check and closed without it. This is added unnecessary stress for anyone. Builder mix up mail box keys, we received keys of our neighbors box, this was confirmed by the post office. There are many gaps in processes from loan process, to building, and customer service. Do better for the incoming homeowners ... More

A month later and we still have problems with construction that are slowly being addressed.

Beware of purchasing a home through Lennar. Unfortunately, the project manager does not manage their jobs. Contractors are getting away with crooked walls, drainage issues, poor workmanship, grading issues, etc. They will make excuses and not fix them. The project manager may even get in your face and try to threaten you. Poor purchasing experience! I will never purchase another Lennar home!

We’re misinformed by Lennar how Warranty works. Pit supervisor told us not to worry just moving three days after we move them. I told him that 75% of their repairs was never done and we would like him to send repair people to take care of the problems.. he’s answer was after you move in he cannot help us. We got to use the form from the website to let the repair people come in and start repairing a brand new house that was never billed, right

Quality of workmanship is very bad

The house was not cleaned at all prior to closing, and we were promised that things would be fixed in the days after our closing. We still have not had anyone come to our house to touch up the damaged walls and paint issues. The concrete driveway has FOOTPRINTS on it from the construction workers, but Lennar says 'its within tolerance' so nothing will be done about PERMANENT FOOTPRINTS in our concrete driveway. Horrible experience and will never buy Lennar again. Also the sales agent Yatsi is among the worst sales agents we have ever dealth with. Totally clueless.

Quality is very poor. finishes are substandard just and cheap. No pride in workmanship. Damages hidden and not even an even coat of paint.
