Lennar Reviews

The worst company to deal with I would never recommend anyone to buy from Lennar Lennar is garbage worst ones

Worst experience ever, they don’t even deserve one star. Stay away from Lennar DO NOT buy a house from this builder

I bought my 1st house in 2018 and that was from Lennar Construction. We liked a lot and that quality of construction and service made us to go again with Lennar for my 2nd house too. From the the beginning till closing, started facing issues both from Sales and Construction Manager (CM) and they were very arrogant in not responding in addressing our concerns/clarifications. CM gave us false promises and made us hurry during final walkthrough and promised in addressing few concerns but never responded later. Not only me, but even my neighbors are also victims in facing the similar issues. And this will definitely let Lennar down to move from a premium builder grade to lower grade and Lennar is not going to be a 1st choice for home buyers. ... More

I just bought a property at lennar at Lakeland. This is the worst experience I have ever have. They took 2 months to install the motorway and shelves. The ceiling over the island kitchen is already leaking. There is water from the ceiling and leaking over the island kitchen. 2 months.

Agreed to buy home at $30k at 3.99%. The morning of closing they changed rate to 4.79%. Have made 7 warranty claims in 3 months. No windows in back of home that open. Cracks in the ceiling. The underwriting process was awful.

What an absolute nightmare of a home, DO NOT BUY! This is hands down the worst home I’ve ever been in. From the terrible experience with their mortgage team, to getting left high and dry on terrible workmanship, I absolutely do not suggest you buy a Lennar home. Everything on my house was done last minute slapped together and I’ve just taken the beating because it looked good for a solid second. Giant moat in backward won’t get fixed so I’m stuck with a huge landscaping bill. Entire house covered in huge cracks, trim separations, and nail pops which won’t be fixed because it’s “cosmetic.” Roof line has serious sags and they won’t fix the sod in the front yard that was destroyed during our walk through with one of their trucks. I’ll be selling this dumpster as soon as I fix all this mess. STAY AWAY! ... More

The quality is very poor, and it has not been repaired until now

I FULLY REGRET MY PURCHASE. Overall the look is great, but when you look closely at the workmanship it is very shoddy. Shower stalls with tops not finished or caulked, major skips of caulking in showers, uneven & very noisy floors, steps that are slopped from boards with major cracks (which were attempted to be covered with caulking), boards cut too short and filled in spaces with caulking, first floor is VERY COLD, temperatures as low as 46 degrees, chips in all shower stall floor pans and in tub, cabinets not adjusted correctly and hit into walls & appliances, damaged appliances, kick-boards under all cabinets not finished, ends of 1/4 trim boards not painted, coat closet depth too small and hangers can't be hung, thus worthless as a coat closet, damaged door to HVAC room, no thresholds in bathrooms so you can not put a rug on the floors, advertised as "luxury homes" but NO TOWEL RACKS in full bathrooms, kitchen sink with dents, kitchen cabinet with 7" split in wood, seals around exterior doors so bad that the wind coming in will blow out matches, paint & caulking drips on shower tiles, water temperature cold requiring adjustment, and many more issues. After 4 months only a couple of issues resolved and not getting responses from Lennar representatives. I would not recommend buying a Lennar home. My last two new homes were built by Ryan Homes, I had only a couple of issues and they were fixed timely. I'm just astounded at the shoddy work by Lennar and per my neighbors they have the same issues. ... More

Let me just say the only person that helped in this whole transaction was Celia. The worst experience was Lennar Mortgage (Christina Z), will NEVER recommend this lender and especially Christina! Dave the "walk through" guy was horrible!!! We never got a proper walk, unless you call a 6 minute walk proper? We were left figuring out how to work everything and search for instructions, still don't have the a/c warranty after asking more than three times... Still going through problems from lies told by Lennar. NEVER WILL RECOMMEND THIS BUILDER/LENDER!!!!!!!

From the time we put down earnest money this has been a bad purchase. With the exception of Joey Blackledge and Pablo Berrios we have had issues. Price quoted different from price provided after we had to put down earnest money, closing delays and online closing issues, Service issues getting scheduled and call backs, the quality of the build requiring multiple service calls. The electrical issues that have been known about through the community, quality of workmanship being poor and then the sales manager response to us at the beginning. This has been the worst home purchase we have ever made. Follow up this far except Pablo has been poor also. If we had to do it over again we would have paid our movers to provide longer storage and found somewhere else. I do not expect that you will contact me or even care about what I have stated but needed to let you know anyway since you provided me a survey asking. ... More

Lender was not responsive. After the builder ensured us that all of the items on our inspection was complete as well as the items we marked with blue tape, we found several items were still not completed and even noticed quite a few pieces of blue tape were still present at the home delivery meeting. We also had a leak in our brand new roof and a sewer gas smell that took almost a month to resolve.

The cabinet is very low quality compare to what the rep told me i will received

The house is supposed to be new and without problems, on December 9 I did the closing and there were some things to fix. The engineer in charge of the house promised that he would fix the house in a matter of weeks, as of today, January 31, the house remains the same and both the engineer and the customer service person are still missing without letting me know when they are going to fix it. the problems that the house has. The treatment that my wife and I have received in a matter of the house is incredible. It is unacceptable that they have a group of people working without caring about the things they do. This will be the last time I buy a house with Lennar. ... More

I would not suggest a Lennar home to anyone. There is no quality in our Lennar home. The shoddy work, incompleted work, no attention to detail, horrible mistakes that were left, horrible painting job, etc. I can go on and on. #donotbuyLennar is what I plan to go viral with. I have nails coming out of the stairs (that I stepped on), nails coming through cabinets (that I've cut my finger on). The lack of attention to detail is horrible. I need to put a sign in my front yard to warn potential buyers to stay away from Lennar. Everyone I speak with who are looking for a new construction, I advise them of the horrible home I am dealing with. I absolutely would not recommend a Lennar home to anyone; and Lennar should be ashamed of themselves for allowing contractors to do the shoddy work. I am definitely going to use my new as a resource for others to NOT buy Lennar. It's sad that I have crooked walls, places where the structure does not even meet, poor quality of painting, work left incomplete, the sloppiness, cutting corners, using bad products - again, I can go on and on. I will be reaching out to an investigative reporter to move forward with my issues; I will have this builder exposed for the lack of quality & bad work that contractors are able to get away with. ...

Lennars home buying experience is horrific. From the lies that the manipulative realtors spew, to the horrible workmanship. Their goal of Lennar is to only complete a house to 90%before closing. Punch lists are never completed. Extremely manipulative to women. Take total advantage of. Do not buy a Lennar home.

My experience with Lennar has been quite disappointing. Despite being promised that all pending tasks would be completed prior to closing, several important items were left unfinished. They were in a rush to close all the homes by November and there was no focus on completing the work before closing. The closet doors were not fixed, shower rods were not installed, the painting was not done to a satisfactory standard, and there were drywall cracks and partially painted lanai door. I would not recommend purchasing a home from Lennar. They did not demonstrate a customer-centric approach and their responsiveness declined once the closing was completed. Despite repeated attempts to follow up on the unresolved issues, the builder seemed disinterested in resolving the matter. I strongly advise against purchasing a home from Lennar. It may cost a bit more, but it would be worth considering other builders such as MI Homes or Pulte Homes. It is important to thoroughly research the options and make an informed decision before entering into a deal with Lennar. ... More

Quality and Customer service Sucks. Wish i could Rate NEGATIVE

Too many negative things to list them all. Constant delays and lies. Quality is so bad I would never buy a Lennar home again.

Dont buy from Lennar, EVER! They are cheapskates who cant do anything right, force you into closing early with promises of fixing things, but do not deliver. The material is cheap, the labor is crap, the multiple mistakes due to their cheap laborers is absolutely horrible. The home is not worth the price they charge AT ALL! I could have done a better job than their day laborers. Their construction manager Derrick clearly has no idea how to do his job or how to manage his workers to make sure they do it right. We have had nothing, but issues and we have only been in the home a month. The padding between townhomes walls is not enough, the padding under the carpet is none existent. We can hear everything! There is no sound proofing whatsoever, its like living in an apt again. The paint mistakes, the caulking missed, the leaking windows, tile floors installed incorrectly, the broken cabinets, and these are some of the issues we have that have yet to be fixed, The sales people have no idea what they are selling. No one in this organization communicates with anyone else. Sales people promise one thing, but that is clearly not what is done. From top to bottom this is the worst construction company in the Bay Area. ... More

Lennar has been a nightmare from day one. I was threatened with taking my retirement to a large fine if I didn't close when Lennar wanted to close. On the day of closing Lennar was not ready and the unit was certainly not completed. I closed on Dec 5, 2022 and as of today Jan 25,2023 I still cannot move my belongings in because the doors and windows still will not lock/open. I have contacted and have been promised by many of Lennar people and still no resolution. I have had to pay an additional $1000 for storage because I cannot move in my condo. I have other issues such as the front entrance floods due to sidewalk not slanted properly, my vanity doors are damaged. I would not refer Lennar to anyone and if something isn't done soon I may consider calling the media. This is ridiculous and shameful that a company can operate in this manner. ... More

House was a mess when we moved in. Walls needed repainting and when they repainted the workers got paint on carpet, tile, everything and it is not cleaned up yet. Our A/C has gone out 3 times and is still not fixed. No one from Lennar follows up when work order is put in. Finally, the HOA is charging us a late fee because Lennars title company sent them a faded check that HOA could not cash and cannot get a hold of the title company to cut a new check. I would not recommend to anyone to deal with Lennar.

I am not happy with the LENNAR. We had hard time with this purchase with Lennar. Specially the loan officer. He provided the incorrect information in disclosure. And he blamed us not reviewing the document. And later for another disclosure he did mistake on estimated closing cost and we I had to dig into email to prove he did mistake as the disclosure does not matching with what he said to us over the email. I am very upset with the response I have received from Lennar.

Lennar couldn’t get our house done by closing on Dec.28 so they pushed it to Jan16. Home is still not finished! We settled for a Lennar home in a different area of town. The experience has been horrible. We can’t even get the warranty people out to patch up the things that were pointed out on our walkthrough before closing. I don’t recommend buying.

Horrible quality. I regret everything. They told us SO MANY LIES. I feel like a lawsuit is in our near future.

House quality fell short. Building timeline was continually pushed back because of labor shortages. Over priced home with no input from consumer. Lennar took advantage of inventory shortage and watered down its brand for the sake of a dollar. I real shame.
