Lennar Reviews

Everybody working for lennar don't care about the customer. Every issue I had, I had no assistance to minimum assistance. For example: 6 months after buying the property my bath tub is still missing caulking. I contacted lennar, etc nobody came to fix it. The pavement in front of the house has steps from paint, nobody came to pressure wash that, and lots more.

Previously Lennar used to build nice homes with utmost quality, ever since 2 years I see very poor quality in materials and workmanship.

Quality issue - Construction & Landscaping, Paint, Wooden, Garage & appliances not up to the mark Completely disappointed in quality of material used in construction work. Landscaping not done in good way. Wooden work , Door Locks , Garage door & Paint issue -(Not up to mark) Appliances - Gas Stove & Microwave In house materials not properly fitted - Racks,Towel & Paper hanger

I the space and the layout of the house. I hate the quality of the workmanship, from the paint work to the interior door (all of them rattle), and the loose downspouts that drive me crazy at night time, the creaking floor and falling recess lights those are few examples of the list of disappointment. We did have a good experience with our sells person.

For a first time buyer I was so excited on buying my first house and spend time with family and friends. But now that the time passes by I get to notice a lot of stuff that isn’t right and that the contractors and builders let it slide under the rug so they could sell, sell and sell ,not focusing on quality and safety of the people that it’s planning to stay in the new house for the rest of their lives. Per example crooked wall in the kitchen and door of living room swings by itself because of that. Roof trusses, 2x4’s cheap and a lot of pieces look like a dog chewed on them and they installed them like that anyway.(Are they supposed to be 2x6’s anyway ?!) I just really hope that my house is going to last and not a regular wind or something simple is going to take the roof down and crush us ..! After 3 attempts of telling Robert, about my back yard and my neighbor telling to him about water holding between our houses, no one hasn’t come by and see or say anything about putting dirt or a French drain . Which that what we need instead of a eye balled trench. Well I hope someone read this and reply or get back with me with a solution at least with my water issue . Thank you ... More

It has taken about 20 separate visits over the course of 3 months, from the building to complete items that were either not completed or done incorrectly and its still not finished.

follow-up on outstanding issues has been horrible

Because my closing was pushed back several times, they rushed to finish and I have a lot of things that had to be fixed after I moved on and some are still not correct. Unorganized and sloppy work

Very poor quality products and sloppy workmanship. I have a long list of complaints.

Please pay close attention to concrete work that is inferior to most builders in the region. The landscape provided is far the worst I have seen for a new home. (many dead or dying, cheap plants)

Workers used are low paid workers for million dollar houses. This shows in their work. Trades are not good for what we paid for.

Lennar makes a lot of promises about clean up and touching up issues on your final walk-through but fails to deliver on 100% of them. Most of it is little stuff where if you dont mind doing construction cleanup and minor repairs are no big deal but still pretty disappointing that none of it was done by closing. You can try putting in requests after you move in but alot of it will just be marked completed and no one will ever come out.

Terrible workmanship, quality, and lack of caring from the construction manager, builders, and select lennar representatives that I have reached out to.

Slow to respond to issues. Shady in advertising and promotions. Make sure they give you the right keys if you do buy, or you’ll be like me, locked out of your own home on moving day.

Closed on the home with items still outstanding. Assurances given that all would be taken care of in short order. Not to delay the closing and moving plans, etc. we went ahead and closed. Now we still have outstanding items, no contact with our superintendent who conveniently leaves a message on his voicemail that he does not check voice mail messages, and to email instead. Turns out, he does not respond to emails either. Felt very rushed to close, then they vanish. Not impressed and not happy overall.

Promises made are not always promises kept. We still have stickers on the outside of our windows and construction debris in our yard. I have no plants growing in my flower beds and the palm trees are only alive because we are watering them. The sink materials are plastic. Make sure everything is done before you close or it won’t get done for months.

Materials it was fine but the only thing im not satisfied is the insulation ( its not insulated well. I can hear my daughter and my Son in the other rooms talking ,just talking. Who build it? Some of the base boards are not tight! I address that but they said it will get better in time. The kitchen cabinets are i think is too high. I know its according to plan, its ok. The garage door has gaps on both sides , the closets down stairs was too small , they were like laughing when we address that and they dont believe me until i send them the pictures ( in the manager did not look into it while they were building it and thank God they fix it but i think the room become smaller . The Aircondition vents : the air flow is not equal on all rooms , the master bedroom aircon vent is noisy. When we were checking the house one day and i found that why the water faucet is in the PATIO BESIDE THE GAS OUTLET! I called the building manager and he said its normal to be in that place but i went in the model house and its not , its outside the patio, he still ignore us. Luckily i talked to the asst Manager during the walk in And he agrees with me and Fix it for me. When we are talking about the closet The Manager said they had interns doing the build, i think they let this interns did the job in the house, and we notice while we are visiting the house after working hours , we noticed that the other house around us is almost done but our house i think is behind , I think they rushed to build the house and did not even check everything if they did it right. They oversee all the stuff i mentioned. And also when we move in the aircon control was not working. The washer dryer outlet was messed up , i ended up buying a new dryer because i dont know that i have to let them know the dryer is not heating , i decided that i think when we move in the movers messed up the dryer so i consulted appliance tech and they said heating coil is damage thats why i baught a new dryer . I found out that there is not enough power for the dryer when i complained to the dryer company that the machine is not heating up . I believed that my old dyer is still good , i complained to the manager and he said i cannot get a refund since i did not called them about it( how do i know !!) . They did not tell me that “hey if your dryer is not heating call us” if a normal person like me dont know anything abt electricity do you think i will them ? im focused that the dryer is not working not the electricity !! That would a normal person will do ,right? I think the Building manager did not do his job well. At least the Asst Manager understands what our concern was . Please let my complains reached the higher people . Im sorry they build the house like what we saw at the model house i mean everything in the proper places , and also why are the walls not painted the same way like most of the walls are base paint , the other areas are semi smooth. thats not what we saw in the model house. ...

Still waiting for things to be fixed from walk through.

We love our house but I am worried about how it’s going to last. Lennar seemed great before our house was sold but we have seriously struggled to get any of our warranty work done. They are unresponsive and often just don’t show up when scheduled. It’s been months and the works not done. Following up with them gets exhausting.

In my home inspection more than 80 defects were identified to be fixed. They did not fix even 10%. They missed almost all appointments.

I should have known something was wrong with the seller agents when they brushed off my question regarding the real estate taxes and mello roos.

Way to many problems on a new house

My seller was so rude with is, the street is very darker no safe

Wishing that I hadn’t bought here. Extremely disappointed with the workmanship.

We love the layout of the home which is why we picked it. The Workmanship is poor. We have paint runs down the banister, all across the baseboards, the subfloor wasn't installed properly in the bathroom creating tile cracks. Had that fixed and now the grout is cracked. It takes forever for someone to come out and fix anything. The outside cleaning that was supposed to be completed in November had yet to be done and it is currently March. The paint job is horrible! The banister received 1 coat, the wood is showing through, there is building dust painted into the banister. Its horrible. For a brand new house the quality it the worst. Our 20 year old home was built and had better quality than our new house. ... More
