Lennar Reviews

If it’s not too late. Look elsewhere. I have had and will probably continue to have issues with this New home. I have so many pictures to prove it. Make sure you check that your home has been painted and I don’t mean with just primer. The landscaping company is horrible as well. After filing a report with the landscaping company that my so called Bermuda sod was dead and dry when they finally installed it , because it was just sitting across the street for weeks, the company adjust there picture to look green, however they couldn’t adjust the tree that was dead. So just aware..

We have been so disappointed in the quality of our brand new home. We have only been here a little over a month and we have uneven floors, wood boring beetles, malfunctioning appliances, broken roof tiles, construction debris, and more. Every time we have Lennar come fix something, they either miss the appointment, show up with the wrong materials, or can't fix the issue. It took them 4 tries to fix a single dented panel on the garage. 3 times to fix a small area of drywall. Moreover, they first try to tell us, we are mistaken and that it isn't an issue. We do not trust Lennar or our customer service representative, and every single tradesperson they have sent has been mediocre. ... More

No kind of spare materials left. Shoddy work with damaged stuff with multiple holes put in kitchen cupboards and on raising it as issue, was justified saying this is all fine and put in model house

I am not even rating this experience. Letting others speak for me. But since I have to add more words here it is. Nothing! If you like to have PTSD please sign up to Lennar customer service.

I’m Jerry disappointed with my WHIOLE home buying process. I have NO words to appropriately describe the nightmare I have been through.

Extremely bad experience with construction manager , some of my stuffs are still not fixed that was promised to fix after closing Horrible experience with Lennar insurance Bad experience with Lennar mortgage HOA response time very late Over all response time late

Quality is so bad that toilet needs a change, sink needs a change and irrigation needs a change.

Do not purchase a Lennar Home.

There were a few major issues in this house after it was closed on 7/26/24. I received keys after closing on 7/26/24, there were no blinds and no cleaning at all (lots of construction remains everywhere). Reported Leaking water from the 2nd floor and garage on 8/6/24. The construction was done on 8/21/24, including drying the wall paint.The water was leaking from the attic. The AC company visited twice. The last visit was on 8/16/24, but the water dripping issue is exactly the same (please see attached photo – Destiny told me that I can submit another ticket to recheck the roof or other leaking area) Here's how my family had an inconvenience from 7/26/24 to 8/22/24. I had to take pain medications due to body aches and headaches from sleeping in a button bed or being unable to sleep since 7/26/24 until 8/21/24 because of the 2nd floor and garage under construction. The loud fan sounds – made it impossible for anyone to sleep in those situations.There were 2 fans running 24 hours a day from 8/13/24 to 8/19/24 –Who's going to pay the electric bill?Never used AC till now, just tested by AC Tech while fixing it even in very hot weather in Chula Vista. (I am still unable to turn it on due to the water dripping issue.)I canceled all furniture's delivery – will pay the penalty.I couldn't use anything upstairs (all rooms, laundry, showers) from 7/26/24 to 8/21/24All family members were unable to stay home or sleep in this house instead of somewhere else due to construction until 8/21/24.Canceled on 8/17-8/18/24 housewarming and moving plans.Six relatives had canceled flight tickets due canceled to a house warming.All families were suffering. The quality of life has been very bad since the closing date of 7/26/24. Some issues still on going some issues and I sent email to Ochoa Area Manager - Customer Care San Diego but still didn't get answer yet. ... More

The sales agent, Jamie, was very good. We had a good experience with her. Unfortunately, the construction manager, Chad, was not. He stopped communicating with us after closing. Very little of what we asked to be corrected actually got corrected. When defects were pointed out prior to closing, it was suggested that we submit warranty claims after closing. The construction manager's explanation was that the contractors who do the warranty work were better than the construction contractors Lennar uses to build homes. That is likely true - it would be very difficult for them to be worse! What they viewed as acceptable work was shocking to me. I won't go into detail here, but suffice it to say that in my opinion the overall quality of the construction was poor. Two pieces of advice if you are considering purchasing a Lennar home: (1) Absolutely get a home inspector; (2) Do not agree close until all items you have asked to be addressed have been corrected. ...

Actually pretty horrible experience. Timeliness was horrible. Updates were never given. Loan officer and associates would never answer the phone. Blue tape walk through issues weren’t fully addressed. Overall build and quality of the home is terrible. The flaws are starting to show. Major corners were cut and the integrity was compromised. Grass install was terrible and even after watering multiple times a day, it still died. Fencing was constructed terribly. No straight lines or even sections. It’s already falling apart. Ceiling insulation wasn’t complete. This list can go on about how terrible the construction and integrity of the house is. Also alcohol was found during the construction of the home so that goes to show the quality of the home. ... More

Some things is better left unsaid. I moved in the home and I'm over it!!!!

Poor workmanship and trying to make quick money

Terrible, horrible, awful, horrendous, abysmal

Lack of communication between departments. Not flexible. A lot of issues with the house. Cheap materials

The underwriter ignored us for two weeks. Therefor our loan was delayed by 3 weeks. Closing docs were approved on the day of closing! Horrible. Any issues were not handled right away. I was told the water bill for water for the grass that I do not want on the side of the home would be $30. It was $136! I was told HOA would take over the grass. They did not. HOA is non responsive. Took two weeks to get hold of anyone. Took over a month to set everything us. Horrible experience! I was ripped off on the price too. Same home sold for 17k less and also does not have grass on the side of the home! I do not want the grass. ... More

Cheap material used for homes read the contract if they run out of materials they use what ever they have and for the concrete make sure your drive way looks good cuz they are chipped.

A house is a really Big Investment, In this inflated house people are pushing themselves to pay inflated price houses. After Paying High Price, Buyers believe that they will get good quality service and house would worth the money but thats not happening with Copperleaf Lennar. Following are the reasons and examples that proves it - 1) starting with Sales Team, The house price is not fixed and they keep changing the prices and offer different prices to every buyer. Being an really good brand as Lennar, their standards are not maintained very well. For houses they define the prices every time different prices for buyer. Sales Person (i.e. NKLE) which helped is worst person never showed face and called or checked on us after taking the minimum 5% deposit. Always misguided us without sharing the details of the House. Model House AURORA was having a 4th bedroom on 2nd floor but in the one they sold to us had loft room that they informed on the very last day when we were about to sign the purchase. Cash incentives she offered was way less than she offered to other buyers even though i paid 20% down payment. She was always hungry and greedy to take the 5 % deposit, never called us to help us in buying process but always called us to misguide us, i kept asking can we have a basement included model but she never told the plan that few houses more basement would be available, now new buyers are paying same price with basement included. she always on rush to sell the house and kept asking - "can u give 5%, can you give 5 % can u give 5 %" every possible time whenever she calls just keep asking same thing and never helped us to guide in right direction to satisfy what we want. once she sold she never looked back to us on how we doing and if we have any questions. worst sales person i ever met. without asking us on the first visit she thought we dont have realtor and didnt bother to ask, on second met we said we had realtor and we told already that to customer representation on day 1 but she said we told he that we don't have realtor. and she said she will help to guide us but if we would have realtor we could have learned a lot and understood if it would be right to buy this particular house. she never helped us on guiding in right way but all she wanted is 5 % deposit. 2) finishing of the house is not great, though its brand new and under warranty we understand they can fix problems but that takes a while. the good finish house is expected from Lennar but this is not a good finish house like it supposed to have, the color paints under windows are not nicely done, stairs are getting break., vynl floor is making noise every time we walk. never cleared us that there will be rain water drainage in front of house will be open which is never informed us and only told us when we asked after closing day. houses are getting build so fast that itself tells how good the quality would have been maintained. 3) Mortage from Lennar plays a very nice game, due to cash incentives we are bound to take mortage from them only on the rates that they have monopoly on. outside lenders were giving me 6.75% but i was given 7% and they didnt match it . they said this is what it is bec they knew they are giving cash incentives from builder so buyer will take mortage from them only. 4) Quality inspection doesnt know anything, she just walks in and talk nicely. inspection was never done properly as the wiring issues we found out after moving in, the appraisal of the house was never done properly and they just did it with couple house around and not using a truth table. 5) after moving in we realize tons of problems. and now seeing every new buyer is getting better price then what we was offered. they are not maintaining a standard disciplined rate. they keep slashing 50k 70 k sometimes 80k and when we asked to do that to us and reduce some price during negotation they did nt. buyer like me are ok to pay the price but when we realzied its not the worth of money to pay for and Lennar being a bigger brand keep slashing prices for near by house it itself means its a worst quality build. my only feedback to them - ask for what it worth for, build a good quality home, remove the poor sales team and have a genuine sales person and not like NCKLE who only wants to misguide buyers. ...

As soon as we signed the contract, it all went downhill…Lennar struggled and still have not completed items from the Home Celebration walk. You need to chase them to complete otherwise Lennar tries to close the items without completing. Condescending attitude while you bring outstanding items even if it is evident the items are just not completed or do not comply with industry standards.

Low quality materials and appliances. No customer support after the sale. The application/closing process is confusing

The documents process was extremely slow. We had to speak with 8 different people for the proper forms and access to websites. Filed complaints against 1 woman who would not return phone calls and dragged out underwriting for weeks!!

I was really excited to start the process of buying a home with Lennar Homes. Throughout my homebuyer process, I was somewhat clueless of what to expect. The person that I spoke to initially, which I thought it was my Realtor, rushed me through the initial process to take a down payment within the first day of meeting her. I was only shown two homes Which the first was already sold and the second was the last available so I was told. I was told that I would be walk-through the whole process if I had any questions or concerns I could reach out to my her, Jennifer. Jennifer was absolutely no help. She was only looking to make her commission from the sale. I only really spoke with her once. She knew I was a first time homebuyer in my whole story and I thought she was trustworthy enough to help me throughout the process. She was not at all. Even after purchasing the home throughout the stressful process with all the other agents that I spoke with about the mortgage loan, I have yet to speak with her. Each time I reach out to her I either get no answer or I have to communicate with someone else that has no clue of any information to provide to me as well. The mortgage officer is were very rude as well. I know it is a stressful job, but the point of the Realtor is to take the stress off the customer and the mortgage officer . Neither department was effective, sympathetic or compassionate . They were all rude and demanding and completely unfortunately Uncompassionate to the process . The construction of the home was thrown together. I’ve had many issues since the start with electrical and plumbing. Again, I have yet to be able to speak with my realtor about this because she has not returned any of my calls. The warranty department seems a bit sketchy with Lennar homes as well. Thus far, I have not been completely satisfied but making do because I’ve set myself up for failure for a $300,000 home that really isn’t even worth 75,000. They say when you know better you do better, I only plan to stay in this home for maybe the next two years and then I will be selling. I thought this would be my forever home, But at this rate, it does not look like it will be. Lennar should have Realistic realtors that are really willing to work with first time homebuyers, Or any homebuyers that is. Explain the full process and detail what to expect and what is included. They should not be so concerned about the commission that they are going to make either way. I was told by Jennifer that if things were not correct, and I was not happy then I would become her headache that far. It seems like she’s been avoiding me by dodging my calls and never being in the office whenever I stop by. Not to mention that I’ve been in Home for almost 5 months now and I’m just now getting a mailbox key that works and our mail is just now being delivered. We were distributed other peoples keys and had to run down the office to get the keys corrected. There are millions of homes in this neighborhood and each person had a different person’s key. I can only imagine how much of my mail had been stolen if it was ever even delivered. The recreation center took forever to be completed and has still yet to be fully completed. Are key cards still do not work appropriately And the pool is never clean. Things with Lennar should be more transparent than they are. All in all, I am not happy with my service or my home, but I guess I will make do since I am stuck here. ... More

Lennar interior and exterior quality is very bad. I can say million issues in every place. 1. Our bathroom water leaked in just 3 weeks and Lennar have to break the walls to fix. 2. Our microwave trips every time and no solution for that. 3. Paint is falling apart inside the house 4. It’s funny when you see the flower plants Lennar gave in the landscaping. 5. Not worth for the money we spent.

I am a first time homebuyer and this purchase has been nothing but problems. House was very clearly rushed. There is no point of contact to escalate issues. All attempts to contact my customer care rep have been extremely poor. Prior to closing, rep did not follow through on issues found in the first walkthrough. He did not attend the final walkthrough 1 day before closing, no notice or apology. After closing, issues are very slow to be addressed, taking several weeks to resolve simple things. The rep does not seem to proactively work on my tickets and instead requires me to reach out and push him to get the problems fixed. Multiple homes in my community flooded the first time it rained due to improper drainage. ... More

they threaten people to take high conventional rates instead of fha.
