Lennar Reviews in Houston, TX

Throughout the construction the quality of the work perform by the different subcontractors and the cheap material selection was obvious. The price paid for the house is not reflected in the quality of the different components of the house (Kitchen, Doors, floors, etc.) Lennar has a very good marketing department and with the story of being an Alexa ready house gives the impression that the quality is top notch then you come to realize that it is not the case. I do not recommend buying a Lennar home, unfortunately it is too late for me.

Prior to purchasing our new Lennar home, I read some reviews on the web. There were more negative reviews than I would have expected. I addressed this with our sales consultant and he simply said that because of the size of Lennar, there would be more negative reviews than with other builders and likewise there would be more positive reviews. We really liked the house and he assured us that they would be here to take care of any issues. We went ahead with the purchase and could not be more pleased with the house and their responsiveness to the few minor issues that we have had. The hoyse was well constructed and came with basically everything that our previous builder was going to charge us 50K for. In my opinion, Lennar offers a well built house that is full of value. When they say “everything’s included” they really mean it. ... More

Alex, Garrick and Jose are amazing. Always helpful. Very very disappointed with sales especially the agent though!

I hear closing is nothing short of a stressful time that every home buyer just wants to get over with. But in my case this was “never seen before delays” and unprofessionalism from the loan officer, but more so on the loan processor. A few documents that were submitted to Lennar earlier in the closing process for the closing date got lost in Lennar hands, causing my closing date to be delayed by 2 days and closing at 9:50PM… So pretty much 3 days.

I love my my house, however I will never buy another Lennar homes again due to the worst buying experience I had with Cole at Tavola West in New Cany TX. Don't recommend anyone to buy Lennar homes.

The sals person doesn’t have much experience and irresponsible. The day in last year November when we first came to the sale office is also her first day at this subdivision. Both her iPad and computer didn’t work, she didn’t pay attention to what we said to her which caused misunderstanding late. She insisted us contacting a Lennar financial person at Austin, and late on she told us to switch another person at Houston. I have to register twice. Except an initial few messages, she never contacted us, and she even didn’t response to my messages on time. Furthermore, We didn’t get the full copy of our signed contract until l asked her at the time closing to our closing date. ... More

Long story short, I was told several times that an irrigation system would be provided since that was part of what Lennar promised upon the original sales pitch. Multiple people assured me this would be ok and they would take care of it. Then 3 weeks before closing I’m told I wouldn’t be getting it….. If you don’t like it you can get a refund and go elsewhere. Horrible customer service. How can you trust a company that doesn’t make good on their promises? I even wrote my frustrations to the Lennar corp office. Didn’t even get a response. Im very disappointed with the integrity of LENNAR’s personnel. ... More

Me and my friends are great fan of Lennar! But by buying experience was terrible!! I completely understand that pandemic has changed everyone's lives but shouldn't have impacted the buying experience. The sales team was rude, mortgage team was impatient and construction manager was contactless! Just that we need a house to stay close to friends, we have continued with the purchase if not would have quit.

Our experience with Lennar Mortgage was so stressful and disorganized that we ultimately switch lender. Communication was inconsistent, they kept asking for the same documents, and we kept getting conflicting information and last-minute issues that delayed everything. The lack of professionalism made the process extremely frustrating, and we would not recommend them.

The Homebuying experience was terrible specially the financial approval process. IWe had a lot of issues with the loan process . We put 2/3 for downpayment and we really thought that was enough. The questioning of where we got our funds for downpayment to money paid on our debt even with records we provided were not enough. I guess the only positive thing for me came from the credit report not having my social security right. The prove of accounts that were not mine was troublesome . I went out of the Country to prove that those accounts showing in my credit report were not mine. After talking to a few neighbors that went thru the same I said well I was not the only one. I’m sorry I don’t have any positive feedback to give you. ... More

My buyer experience was something to be desired. I have purchased several homes from Lennar without any significant problems. They were not prepared to provide service from financing, closing and move in. If you. Had a question regarding anything, there was either no response or you had to go through numerous people. The did not know the correct post office to establish mail delivery. We were very disappointed. No one was in charge of this new community. This was not a good experience.

My home is brand new! You did not treat for roaches spiders. You left my front door open over night and I am still dealing with all the bugs in my house. I open my door the washer and dryer and we are hit with roaches that fall from the ceiling!!! We asked several times if the house was exterminated and we are told we don’t do that???? So we buy 270 dollar home for our first home ever and we paid for roaches!!! They are in my attic and my backyard is covered with them at night!!! I now have to pay for an exterminator to come to my home for a problem you guys gave me. When I asked the lady who did our walk about the roaches she giggled and said yep tree roaches we don’t treat for bugs. It was a known issue before we moved in and were promised it would be fixed. What they mean is they would come close the door they left open and not clean up all the dead bugs or treat for the roaches!!!!! To say I’m very disappointed is an understatement! I have an oven that’s only been used 3 times due to the breaker that flips off. Sent some out 2 times to tell me it’s the oven. ... More

This company is the most unprofessional company I’ve ever dealt with. I never spoke to a real person the whole process, and every time I had a question it would never get answered. Also, when I purchased the house, the house was robbed, and I was told that this was the first time it ever happened in this area but the funny thing is I spoke to people who also bought a house in the area three months ago and they told me that this happened to five different homes. There is no transparency with this builder. Also recently I got contacted by the builder saying that the roofing company needs to do an inspection after two months of purchasing the home this is ridiculous and they need to get their stuff together! ...

Have bad experiences with Lennar’s title and sale agent. They tried to tell us wire the money before the closing date which is understandable. However, the final walk through date is AFTER the closing date. I voiced the concern without any answer. On Lennar track, they are no where ready for closing. No seller commitment document, no survey document uploaded or provided. I bought 3 homes with them and this will be the last one

Terrible experience. I wouldn't and wont do it again.

I have been in this building for a month and we have an electrical issues with the breaker since the beginning of the closing. They have already changed the breakers 2 times and it has not solved the issue there is still a problem. It hasn't been a month, we have a leak in the sprinkle system which caused us to have a large amount in the water bill. We also just had a problem in the floor lamination. This really frustrates me to the point where I have to fill up a different warranty claim for a different problem every single week.

Do not buy with Lennar. The title team and construction manager is unorganized, push your issues to the side and never acknowledge or resolve issues.

The sales associates filled out our contracts incorrectly with simple mistakes and would not correct them when they were pointed out. Example incorrect contact information. They along with the mortgage team gave us understated estimates due to interest rates that did not match the offered interest rates. This was also not corrected when it was pointed out. The Lennar employees across multiple departments did not pay attention to the details and made sloppy mistakes that made the home buying experience difficult and frustrating. Once upper level management got involved to correct the mistakes things went smoothly. ... More

Lennar seems to only care about them selves and I almost lost my money due to the some lady named Silvia screaming and catching an attitude with me and my bank when lennar made the mistake. Horrible experience

The only good thing about this experience is Josh when i first bought the house. The lending process and about of defects in walkthrough, make me never want to recommend this company

I tried to change my closing date because my bank CD was maturing three weeks after the tentative closing date. I have purchased 3 Lennar houses before and never had any closing date issues and after purchasing this house it was an investment of almost $1000000.00 on Lennar houses. The answer I received from upper management was discourteous: “We DON'T move dates!” you should not talk to your loyal customers in this tone (extremely unprofessional).

From the very start I had issues with the loan officer not being proactive and responding to messages in a timely manner. The day of closing my name was not spelled correctly in the title/documents. I have been in the home and there is something going on with the plumbing where the toilet does not flush properly. There were also missed parts that were not painted by the time I closed on home. I unfortunately noticed a discrepancy in the fence but since I closed on the home lennar is no longer responsible. I would NOT recommend lennar the homes are built very fast and the little details are missed we had to close remotely they did not want to work with us going in person to sign our documentation if we had any questions. Closing on the home was not a good day we were very stressed out calling everyone to fix my name on documents and then was being told if I did not close that day I would have to pay a fee (even though it was THEIR mistake) ...

They cut corners on everything. Material, especially doors are incredibly cheap. The new house even looks like it's been lived in by other people for months. It's was dirty with lots of scratches when we took possession. We have all the photographs for evidence. The salespeople were tricky, sneaky, unwilling to help, and don't return calls most of the time. About the only tiny bright spot are the warranty/Lennar Care people who help address issues with the house. And there were tons of issues, probably more than 2 dozens. Will try to avoid Lennar in the future at all costs.

Lennar made first time home buying a miserable experience. Poor communication from every aspect possible. Very unprofessional. We will never buy another house with Lennar again.

My sales associate was not very knowledgeable abt the questions I had and he was easily offended. The lender scrutinized our accounts and disqualified the money we had to bring to closing. The house's workmanship and materials seems well built but lacking some very important features that leave a big impression like no sprinkler system, no garage door opener, no covered back porch, no fans in any room, dining area too small for a dining table, living room too narrow, and grass is dying. Our plan is to sell as soon as possible and get into something better suited for our family.
