Lennar Reviews

I think poor workmanship no screens no garage door opener no deck build even though there were 30 inches between foundation they just moved up the dirt snd put grass on top. No caulking on floor for kitchen island. No quarter rounds anywhere on the floors Less cabinets in kitchen no cabinet in laundry toom. Shelves that are too high up. Bricks sticking out by the front entrance. Garage door is damaged. Driveway looks bad no gutters. Garage breakers are not strong enough. It keeps popping off no linen closet no drawers in the master bathroom. The exhaust in the kitchen above microwave is not connected. At closing of escrow just got handed a folder with no information on the HOA. Was contacted and was told the would FedEx it. Still waiting. It is a shame to be treated this way. Had a Richmond home before and was treated so much better. I will not ever recommend a Lennar home again ... More

The quality of the build is not what we expected. A private inspector found 37 issues, some major. I will provide his report if requested. Mike B. and Tyler B. have been great in trying to help us take care of the issues, but the nobody returns phone calls letting us know when repairs will be made.

Lennar is no longer the company that use to be. The quality of their new homes is truly sad to see. My issue can be summarized in one sentence: Brand new home with a huge leak on the roof! Took MONTHS for them to resolve the issues. All they care about is closing closing closing. Consider other options for a new home purchase.

This was my first home I have ever purchased and Lennar homes absolutely ruin my experience. First, the sales rep I worked with (Amber) needs to find a new line work. While my home was under construction, I would periodically reach out to her with questions and at first I thought maybe she was just having a bad day based on the attitude I got however, it became a re-occuring issue and I realized she was just a completely rude and nasty person. You should never tell a customer if they have any questions or concerns feel free to give you a call and then when you call with a question you act as though I am bothering you. The construction Manager (Justin) is a complete liar, he said the day I was scheduled to close they would have the items fixed that were marked during my final walk through. The day I closed none of the items were completed and still my door is not painted. Imagine having a brand new home and a door is unpainted. The workmanship done was poor as well as the quality control. They installed a ring video camera door bell which do not work. They didn’t even leave me the box it came in. I have been fighting with the ring company for the last month on helping me to get it in working order. My shower rod in my second bathroom completely fell apart the first day I moved in. All of my bathrooms were clogged two weeks after I moved in. Again cheap poor workmanship. The purpose of buying a brand new construction home was so I didn’t have to play fixer upper and this home is making me do just that. To all prospective buyers please do your research, there are far better builders to work with. Lennar is not the builder to purchase your brand new home with and based on my experience I would not ever work with them again in the future. ... More

They closed home without fixing all the problems I mentioned. And now I'm struggling. Their responsiveness to issues are really zero. Also, the material they build is not so good. I will never recommend anyone to buy from Lennar.

Was Not a Warm Welcome, treat like I was not a person or my wife as if you don’t care. Everyone room was decorated but we was put in a plain room with the notary and had to yell to Lennar person across from the room if we need questions answered so unprofessional all the way even when key was put on table not out hand so wrong in so many way not even a picture like the other people was doing and ringing a bell . Plus the Townhouse was not clean did not do what we ask on list so rude.

It has been one thing after another We had a leak in our wall our tile and baseboard is ruined I had to fight with them for a mold inspection our vanity in that bathroom is cracked and they don’t want to replace it but fix it. The quality of materials is awful our inside door hinges are rusting after living here for less than a month They put do much drywall around my outlets i could not even use them an electrician had to remove outlet cover and chisel away excess drywall in order to make it usable I have paint chipping off my kitchen cabinets already because such cheap quality we also had a leak under our bathroom sink and because of the material being Cheap MDF the cabinet warped still waiting for it to be fixed The trades also got concrete all over my driveway ruing my pavers they have been here 5 times to power wash them and it’s still there We bought this house and all I do I cry I can’t even enjoy it the list goes on and on There are big gaps in my tiles in all bathrooms for not putting enough grout they didn’t caulk in many areas they hung the junction box in wrong place in my living room and list goes on and on ...

Very bad experience, with everyone at Lennar Homes. I have been calling Lennar Corporate telephone number for weeks , I even sent a email and have not got a response. Today is August 29, 2022 and I have only two days left before my 60 day home warranty expires. During my closing walk through there was so much I saw that need to be fixed, the builder supervisor said don’t worry you have 60 days. Well my 60 days expire in 2 days and guess what I can’t get anyone to respond to my request. I will never build or purchase another home from Lennar or refer any of my friends and family to Lennar builders. The one big mistake I made during purchasing a home with LENNAR Builders was I thought that the sales person was helping me, when she is solely out to help the builder. Please let everyone of your buying a new home, please take a realtor with you, they are your true help. Also the other big mistake was not hiring a Realastate Attorney, if it had not been for a outside mortgage I used. I would have lost my earnest money and my home. This experience with LENNAR Homes have taught me a lot about making sure you cover yourself. I know we had a pandemic but this type of service and work is no excuse. I hope I helped someone today, please protect yourself and your investment get a real estate Attorney and a realtor. Please save your self from the big headache not doing this caused me. ... More

Terrible home buying experience. Communication was terrible, little to no follow up. The mandatory inclusion of solar panels was not clearly communicated what the process for set up is and has not been resolved months after closing. Amenities were not fully completed and still unresolved after closing, kitchen water filter and internet equipment were not set up nor will Lennar correct the problems. The Ring system was not the same as the one in the model home. Overall this was a terrible experience and would not purchase from Lennar again. I will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. ... More

This is my second new build. I thought I was buying with a premier builder when we went with Lennar for our second new build and was expecting a better experience and better quality than our first home, especially when buying a million dollar home. I was wrong. From the very beginning I was disappointed with the quality and workmanship being put into the house. It appears Lennar's contracts with the cheapest subcontractors they can find whom put very little effort in the product they are providing. From framers to landscapers, everything appears to be of poor quality. The close out process was terrible, the Lennar superintendents were rude and straight up lied to our faces over and over. The worst, has been the warranty which we are on our second warranty rep in one month and both have been miserable. They constantly give false promises and never come thru, that is if they even respond and don't completely ignore me. It came down to forcing us to close and promising that everything is going to be corrected and completed immediately after closing to completely ignoring us, going on two months. I could go on and on. ... More

Lennar does not seem to stand behind their product, and has substandard work, that is only made worse by the lack of customer service to address issues with their new home construction.

I do understand that Lennar is an extremely large builder that relies on volume not on quality. I think what disappointed me the most was the lack of interest to pay attention to detail, inspect their own work and the lack of interest to make things right. For those reasons plus more I can not recommend Lennar to anyone

Bad quality , even the paint and the floor .

Worse experience ever!!! From the sales team and quality of construction to the warranty experience!!! So disappointing! I will never buy a house from this builder again!!

My experience with Lennar was the worst. There were so many issues with the building of my home. Lack of communication with the Sales Person and Sr. Project Manager. I would not recommend Lennar Builders

Just bought a Lennar home and I advise everyone to avoid buying these homes. These homes are cheaply built, workers drink on the job (I have the beer cans in my house to prove it), and there is no urgency when it comes to resolving issues. There is no reason why brand new homes should be having any issues - we even experienced a gas leak our first night on the property! They should be ashamed of themselves and I suggest they cut their prices for these homes.

No idea why a ticket is closed, no response updates to monitor, poor workmanship, bad quality, continuous surprises in terms of quality issues

My home has many issues from minimal to major. The craftsmanship is terrible and so is the follow-up on the backend via warranty. The cheapest solution is sought in every case and typically requires numerous attempts. This was my first experience buying a new build and has turned me off from it completely. At this point I want to get the home in a condition where I can put it back in the market and put this terrible experience behind me. I have had hvac issues, structural issues, grading issues causing the front lawn to be swampy, missing screens, bowed flooring, warped decking, exposed drywall seams, to name a few. Do yourself a favor and throughly inspect any new home numerous times before deciding to follow through and don't except that the issues are related to post pandemic workforce and material availability, because that is the builders problem and not yours. ...

Worst experience ever. the sales rep was the worse along with the CM. no communication. Absolute nightmare! I had to reach out to the area sales manager so she could help expedite the construction process.

I had a very very unhappy home buying experience with Lennar. Starting from the sales to finance to home construction, ar every step, the whole experience was very unpleasant and compromising. The quality of the construction was suboptimal and there are multiple visible flaws that were not corrected even after they were reported in the inspections. The new home walkthru and final inspection process was so painful with so many open issues and construction manager was not ready to fix. To make the matters worse, I was promised some fixes which I had to follow-up multiple times. The way my home was handed over was even without cleaning. All the Lennar associates that I had to interface were not responsive and not customer friendly. They feel they are doing me a service and am very disappointed with the whole experience ... More

I buying a Lennar home was a dream come true, until it became a nightmare. The quality of the materials use is more than poor, so is the workmanship. Tiles are uneven, frames are bad, house feels weak, carpet and floors are not set properly. House was never prepare or clean as promise, defective electrical appliances. Overall a very bad experience, that I wish I could get out off...

Was told by the sales person they’re not making this style of home anymore, when I stated I would wait for similar model in different location. Now I see same model being built I’m different location, for $50K cheaper. House was filthy when I moved in, construction dust on all the window sills. Door to garage doesn’t close all the way. Hole in the ceiling that took a month for someone to finally pick up. Water started leaking through my ceiling 2 weeks into ownership. Now there’s a bigger hole in my ceiling. They’re allegedly taking care of it, I have no communication when contractors are showing up, I have to board my dog and stay in a hotel this week. Told me electrician was coming out yesterday I text my contact what time, no response I had to go to work. Electrician never called me either and apparently I missed them. Awful all the way around, would never buy from this company again, I bought brand new so I wouldn’t have to deal with issues. My new house has more problems than my house back home that was built in the 1970’s. ... More

This has been my worst experience buying a new home. This is my 3rd. I closed the house because the bank told me that a delay will raise the Interest rate. In that moment I was trapped. I moved to a house with no bath vents, loose floor tiles, no windows sills or painting completed, wavy drywalls, and a long etc. after 2 months and a half living here lennar haven’t repaired a single screw. Oh yes, they repaired the main entrance door because I lived there with no door lock for the first 3 days.

We are very disappointed. It’s already been a month after the closing and a lot of works still not done.

Don’t buy Lennar! There is obviously no supervision during construction and if provided no experienced construction managers. Absolutely NO CONCERN FOR QUALITY! They constantly try to fix items that were not installed properly (I.e.) doors, especially exterior doors instead of removing and reinstall properly or replace. It is sad that Lennar accepts the butcher quality of work provided by their sub-contractors. We didn’t get what we paid for! All my neighbors feel the same way!
