Lennar Reviews

Overall good experience. Timeliness in responses was good

Lots of issues that the CM could have caught before final walkthrough. Planting dead trees in the backyard and tried to convince us it is alive and well. Poor painting, lazy finish. Contractors parking all over streets. Garbage left behind daily from contractors. Rude follow up when needed repairs or assistance. Overall I’d never buy with Lennar again after this experience. It was extremely stressful after closing and it just didn’t need to be.

Great home in a quiet and growing community. The house is brand new with a modern kitchen, open layout, and plenty of natural light. The neighborhood is clean and family-friendly, with good schools nearby and nice community amenities. The screened lanai is a great bonus for relaxing outside. The only downside is that it’s a townhouse with a shared wall and HOA fees, but overall it’s a very good option for a new home in St. Augustine at this price point.

I strongly recommend Lennar Homes for your next home purchase.

It was tough but thank God we sailed through and we were able to harmonized all grey areas. Wonderful experience

After closing was a disaster, disappointing, the house was not cleaned. Mud on floor and dirty hand prints seen.. Was not like that before during the walk- through.

Lennar home is a good value for the money. Workmanship is decent. Some minor issues but no major complaints.

I found buying a Lennar home to be an easy and friendly experience. Robert was very easy to work with and always available to answer questions or show me the home-again.

Awful home buying experience

This whole experience has been very impactful. Terri was the representative worked very hard and diligently at every stage even far after the closing to make sure I was all set and taken care of. This experience far exceeded my expectations. The builder produced an amazing house as well.

I have not had a good experience at all. First they will send a very strick/condescending message that this has to be done in a week - this and that. When on says I will back off, they become very polite again. They push and force their lending agency. The Lennar title add some bloated changes the day of closing and then called a week later for some other bloated charge that they wanted to collect more. So, overall I feel I cannot trust them.

I was told in order to purchase a Truman townhome, I was required to go thru New Castle Co Workforce housing. It was a huge pain. The cost of my home increased from $400k to $412k and I wasn’t informed of the increase. 30 Days from agreement to paperwork, it jumped. The defense was that the prices were set by the county. Now I see that the Truman next to me is selling for $349k. That is a huge fall. How can I not feel ripped off. I settled Dec22nd. Less then 60 days the price dropped that much. Sales office says whatever, to get a sale. I am telling others to avoid Lennar.

Responses and actions associated with our requests for repairs and fixes to the property were typically slow, Some repairs had to be completed multiple times before they were done to our satisfaction (tile floors). Some contractors had poor workmanship and were very messy. Several repairs should have been caught by the builder and not by our inspector and me and finished before we moved in.

Cheap crappy quailty, very overpriced and cookie cutter bland junk, not much more to say than, RUN and don't buy these homes, buy an already built home from 2019 or before. Not good workmanship after 2020, everythign is mass produced and no one pays attention to the little details. Very expensive bla homes.

Everybody makes their own experience

Everyone was very attentive, and glad to help and answer any questions. They stayed in touch daily, and made sure that we understood every step. I was assured that they were on my side all fhe way! This really made me appreciate my "dream home" better!

This is a second home and we decided to purchase this house, as it was a "quick sale" by Lennar. The finishings were less than I expected. Everything became an "extra". Could have nicely finished the houses as in the surrounding subdivisions by DR Horton & Adams homes The on site agent was adequate, we had our own agent, the title company was responsive and Lennar's lender was AWFUL.

No a pleasant experience. lots of things still wrong with house and no one willing to help us.

Nate Davis did a very good job.

Overall not a good experience.

I just closed on my 8th home, and unfortunately, this was the most unprofessional and frustrating experience of them all. While I am thrilled to be in Carnes Crossroads, the process with Lennar was a major letdown. Key Issues: Poor Construction Management: My construction manager was so sloppy that I eventually gave up on a repair request and fixed it myself before closing. Subcontractor Negligence: Contractors left permanent stains on the garage floor, deck, and concrete outdoor areas that cannot be removed. Lennar Mortgage was the WORST: I was cycled through three different agents who never briefed one another, forcing me to repeat information constantly. Closing Nightmare: It took two appointments and over three hours to close due to an archaic, back-and-forth document approval process. Poor Communication: The selling agent frequently provided incorrect information and failed to follow up on basic requests. The Verdict: If you walk through Carnes Crossroads, you can clearly see the supreme construction quality in the original section compared to the newer Lennar section. I am buying into this beautiful neighborhood, but certainly not because of the house quality or the builder's service. Brace yourself for a DIY approach if you buy here. ... More

Lennar provided a wonderful experience in buying our first home. Entrust your family with Lennar; you'll be glad you did!

I am extremely disappointed with my experience purchasing a new home from Lennar, and I strongly caution future buyers to double-check their contracts. You expect a brand-new build to be move-in ready, but ours has been a nightmare of poor craftsmanship and what feels like a deliberate bait-and-switch. First, our appliances were delivered more than five weeks late. When they finally arrived, Lennar severely downgraded them from what we paid for. Our contract clearly stated a refrigerator value of $2,440, but they delivered a model worth only $1,048. The contract also listed the washer and dryer at a $2,520 value, but they gave us units worth only $748 each. They shorted us over $2,400 in appliance value alone, hoping we wouldn't notice! On top of this, the house itself lacks quality control. Upon moving in, we found a visible hole in the restroom drywall, cracked wood on the side of the house, and several cosmetic defects. We have reported these issues, but their customer service team drags their feet and has still not fixed them. Once you sign the closing papers, Lennar abandons you. Hire your own inspector, verify every appliance model number against your contract, and be prepared for a fight. ... More

Nice people to work with

It’s unfortunate to be writing this review. I can’t believe all the horror stories we heard prior to buying are actually true. We received some very last minute bad surprises on closing day. Thankfully our agent fought for us and got us some relief so we could still close. The quality of everything installed was also extremely poor. Without going too much into details, I will not recommend this company.
