Lennar Reviews in San Antonio, TX

The price of the home doesn’t reflect the low level quality of materials and craftsmanship in the home. The home has a beautiful face on it but basic everything else from the cheap doors, no locks on the door knob, the basic level stove and microwave, carpet padding, no screens for the windows and the most horrific caulking and painting of the base boards. I reached out to inquire about upgrading the low level things and I was told that it violates the warranty!?!?. You don’t know all of these things until you get in the house and live in it. Also what happened to everything is BIG in TX??? The driveway doesn’t fit to full size vehicles. You can’t even get out and not be standing in the grass. That is TERRIBLE. I’m coming from Florida and the Lennar homes are on a completely different level and quality. I was excited about this experience but I feel like i’ve been scammed for $150K. My last place was built in 2019 and very similar. I wish I was back in Florida. ... More

Kept being told this would be one of our happiest moments, had many issues and concerns still haven’t been addressed and have moved in still waiting to get some resolution. Luv my home but overall experience was horrible and still not able to enjoy our home. Very poor communication at the very beginning, still lack of her and now. Felt so rushed and pushed and thrown to the side. Hope no one else had to or will have to experience what we did. My realtor was the only one I felt that was really here helping and supporting us. Neighborhood is wonderful so far.. wouldn’t change anything

I knew coming into this that buying a house can be stressful but it definitely could be better with the right help. When i went to see the house Ana was good, however the second i was moved to lennar mortgage the nightmare began, the loan officer Wesley he eas good at the beginning, then there was a LOT of miscommunication, changes of information and to make it worse to be honest i felt i was gaslighted towards the end, putting me in a position where i had no choice but to buy. The person that was supposed to contact me and introduce herself before closing I NEVER received such call, waited 2 hours at the office and saw her once for like 1min. I was told an amount at the beginning ended up being a much higher one that to be honest I would’ve pay that amount for the house I actually wanted but because Wesley at the beginning after like 5 very persistent calls he reassured me a much lower cash to closing. Then i had an issue with a credit card payment putting me for the very first time in 4 years in red with the bank for a n extremely late paymenT. I trusted the team even tho i have several family members with awful experiences with Lennar, but I wanted to give it a shot, and it was a very disappointed, frustrating experience. After move in, its been highly difficult , the address doesn’t work , i find myself walking 20min back and forth from my house to the office because no delivery seems to find the address, I finally after a month got my mailbox keys and they don’t even work. My neighbours are great, and im trying to grow love towards my house, thats the OnLY positive thing. ... More

We were really excited to buy this home for our family. This is our first home that we have ever bought. The process of applying for a loan was easy, where things began to fall apart is the lack of communication between all the different areas of the company. I felt like I was doing all the leg work. And to make matters worse, the closing of our house was moved 7 times. Sometimes we knew about it a week in advance and the last few times it was literally the day before we were to close. We moved into our home with not having a final green inspection done, (it had been done, but something failed and they needed to reinspect). Then there was no communication when the final reports were sent in so that I can change utilities into my name. We woke up to having no water at our house and no one letting us know the final reports were turned in. We have a medically fragile daughter and it’s important for us to have our utilities running. It’s just been an overall nightmare! ... More

Extremely unreliable company. Creates time hacks and does not follow through. Issues all over the house ranging from wall paint chips to doors that don’t even close. Terrible

almost 3 months behind schedule even though all supplies were here, would tell us 2 more weeks so we checked everyday, no one was working on house. When we were told a home inspection which we were paying for could be done work in house was not finished you didn't even have a water meter here. One wall had no electricity at all, we were told it was repaired and it wasn't. So many things not taken care of from final walk thru and house was not cleaned. Not sure what ever happened to customer satisfaction but Lennar has none. Neighbors on both side's had same sort of issues. Nice homes but will never buy another one due to lack of caring if your issues are handled or not. ... More

Please keep away from Lennar. They tell you one thing and then do something in the back. When questioned, they say, "oh my mistake" etc or delegate that messaging to someone else. No one really takes responsibility for the mistakes.

Buy elsewhere. Trust me on this one.

The Lennar purchasing experience is a never ending resubmitting of paperwork, seemed like on a daily basis. The interfacing with the utility providers appeared to have never happened. Delays on water/sewer, because the proper forms weren't filed, the CATV took a month to get installed. Electricity was the only one not causing a problem, because they already had it turned on. Even after the sale, they kept contacting us for forms they lost somehow. Professional is not in their vocabulary. The sod in the yard is the worst job I've ever seen. Careful not to injure yourself trying to walk across the yard, or while mowing. One of the trees in our back yard is dead, notified them, no response. The garage door came out of it's track, I fixed it. Insulation does not cover the garage and leaves it very hot during the summer and the heat pores into the kitchen when the door is opened. As for the management of our purchase, Lennar couldn't coordinate anything. When moving from one group within Lennar to another, it was like starting over every time. Overall I would never buy from them again and will never recommend them to anyone not on my enemy list. ... More

Lennar messed up on the grass installation date that led to ALL the grass dying that Lennar had installed . I went by my verbal conversation with Kyle because I trusted him. When things went wrong he and the managers either went mute or told me to show something in written otherwise they can’t do anything. My total expenditure for this goof up is $3.5k!! Shane started telling me all about when the grass needs to be installed that Kyle or no one else mentioned when they should have. On top of that he said he won’t talk to the landscape company to see if they can give me the builder rate because it’s not his job. WOW! My fourth built with a builder and the worst of all! Every single builder I have built with has been courteous enough to correct their faults be it in written or not. I’ve told my realtor about it and his buyers went with LGI Homes and had a wonderful experience. Also left reviews so people know what your service is all about! Disgusting to the core! ... More

They don’t do anything over the bare minimum… unless you want to pay an arm and a leg. Avoid Lennar, Lennar Mortgage, and Lennar Title they’re all equally as bad and have horrendous customer service.

The construction manger was/has been great. The title department was the worst!!! I have NEVER had such a horrible experienced. It’s been 4 months since my closing and last month I was looking for final/completed/signed documents in the portal (that you push so much), to find out they were not there. I had to call title to get them. Defeats the purpose of your so called portal. You have been a failure in almost every aspect of the experience. I say almost only because of Shane the construction manager.

I have been around home building my entire life and have never seen a house get built with such lack of care. There were so many things that stood out to show that one the contractor is either way to rushed. Or two they just don’t care. Walls with very little or no paint. Tile that didn’t get grouted in places. Brick work that looked like a little kid did it. List goes on and on. This is just the builder side of things. I have plenty of complaints for the entire company.

This review is not in regards to the location, the neighborhood, the local schools, etc... It is strictly about Lennar. I purchased a home from Lennar at the end of May 2019. My experience with Lennar before and after purchasing the home has been terrible. This company lacks communication, consistency, and quality, among other things. When we agreed to purchase the home that we liked, the closing date was originally set for early June 19. Lennar contacted us and said that the closing date could be moved up to mid-May. We agreed to that closing date. When that date finally came around, I took off of work to allow time for the walk-through and all of the paperwork that comes along with closing. It was getting late on the day of closing and Lennar had still not contacted me to come do the walk-through. They finally contacted me and said that there wasn't time to close and we would have to do it at a later day. I went up to look at the house the next day and saw that the house was nowhere near ready and that they made no attempt to even close on the day that they moved it up to. I was extremely frustrated that I sacrificed an entire workday for nothing. Eddie, the area manager, and Drew, the sales rep, made no attempt to apologize or compensate me for this. Several days later, I walked through the house with Mario, the construction manager at the time, and put up blue tape on areas that needed a paint touch-up. After a while he has another appointment and said that Drew, the sales rep, was on his way to assist me in continuing the process. When the sales rep showed up, he aggressively told me to leave the home and that if I didn't like the way it looked, the house wasn't mine to buy. At the same time, I noticed that there was a bird's nest in the attic which was the result of a gap in the roof I had brought to their attention in the past, but they told me it was nothing. My wife and I moved into the home on June 2nd, and there are issues that we identified before ever purchasing the home that we are still dealing with today. The most recent is chips in the floor, which has now turned into a 5-week process just to replace a couple of panels on the floor. Lennar left the laundry room vent blocked which caused a blockage between my dryer machine and the vent exit on the ceiling of the house. This is a major fire hazard. The fence gate has broke 3 times. Paint on the outside of the house began to peel off. There was a missing baseboard. There was paint in the carpet and on the flooring throughout the house, and when I brought this up they told me to just to get a washcloth and clean it up myself. There are paint chips and inconsistencies in the paint in every single room of the house, they told me to use the provided touch up paint to fix it myself. I appreciate that the house came with sod and an irrigation system, but the way they laid the sod was extremely careless. Since we first met with Lennar, we have gone through 3 construction managers. As you can imagine, this has caused inconsistency and confusion in communication. I would never recommend Lennar to any of my friends or family. I strongly discourage anyone that reads this to buy a Lennar home. ... More

Major concern during closing: * We were sent documents containing another buyer’s personal information multiple times * Almost every email we sent to the team went unanswered * We only received a response after threatening to report it, which we ultimately did Communication failures and disorganization: * The assigned concierge repeatedly said she was the “go-to” contact, but was unresponsive for weeks at a time and rarely replied to emails * We had to track down answers ourselves by contacting multiple people * Key personnel changed during and after the process, which created confusion and no clear accountability Post-closing issues: * We were unable to get basic services like trash pickup, electric, and gas in our name for about a month and a half and did not receive our garbage cans until 6 weeks after closing * We later learned this was because the builder had not resolved required payments with the city * Even after being told it would be handled, there were additional delays and inconsistent follow-through Insurance and administrative issues: * We contacted Lennar Insurance to correct an error with our policy start date * Our homeowner’s insurance was then canceled in error * We received a cancellation notice stating it was canceled at our request, which was not accurate * After review of the recorded call, it was confirmed that this was not what we requested * We had to contact the insurance company directly to resolve the issue and have it reinstated * The issue was eventually corrected, but it created unnecessary stress and confusion Move-in condition: * The home was filthy before move-in, and we had to request it be cleaned Workmanship and finish issues: * Flooring adhesive came up onto the surface while walking, requiring extensive cleaning * Paint overspray on showers and cabinets * Paint on floors that had to be scraped off * Excessive and sloppy caulking throughout Missing or poorly installed features: * No cabinet handles were installed at all, and we were told this was “as designed,” making cabinets difficult to open * No towel racks installed Material and quality concerns: * Flat paint was used throughout, including in the kitchen and bathrooms, which is not appropriate for moisture or durability Appliance and safety concerns: * The dishwasher did not clean dishes and had to be replaced immediately * The gas stove had a faulty control; when bumped, gas could be released, which is a safety concern * We replaced both the stove and dishwasher shortly after move-in Overall, this experience reflects poor workmanship, lack of attention to detail, and ongoing communication failures. A new home should be move-in ready, safe, and supported by a responsive and organized team. That was not our experience. Buyers should be prepared to thoroughly inspect everything and advocate for themselves throughout the process. Lennar would benefit from focusing on executing core responsibilities well instead of taking on multiple areas without delivering consistent quality. ... More

Do not trust anyone with Lennar. I gave them earnest money and they kept it.

This whole experience has been terrible. Lennar employees have zero communication skills. They don’t return your phone calls, and they don’t communicate with each other until you get upset and ask to speak to their managers. When you put a work order in they don’t show up for services when they say they are or they close work orders without completing any work. The HOA fee is a joke and when we first were looking into this subdivision they told us wifi and trash were all included with our HOA fee. Well that was a complete lie. You pay separate for everything. If you move here you are stuck with this WiFi and even if you get an outside WiFi service for a better deal you’ll still have to pay for the one they set up in the home even if you don’t use it no matter what. The HOA people are no help either and when you call to discuss these fees all they have to say is they aren’t a part of Lennar so they can’t be held accountable for what the Lennar employees told us or what prices they gave us. This is supposed to be our dream home but from the way we’ve been treated it’s been more like a nightmare. ... More

Overall, my experience with Lennar has been extremely disappointing. As a homeowner, I trusted that I was purchasing a safe, well-built property. Instead, I am dealing with serious safety hazards, potential structural/plumbing issues, and a lack of accountability from the builder.

The only positive thing I have to say about my experience is Evelyn on the loan side. She was extremely helpful in helping me! She literally did multiple jobs, because others were not. Multiple things went wrong through the whole process. First time buying a home and it’s been nonstop headache. I haven’t even made my first mortgage payment and my fence fell and Lennar refuses to fix it. Been w/out waste service and was getting the run around and come to find out, you have to have it set up w/ HOA. Which nobody told me, I learned that from the county office after not having trash service for over a month. Gas got shut off, because I thought it was included w/ the electric, which didn’t have hot water for four days. Lastly, they told me they don’t do blue tape during the walkthrough and there were countless imperfections. Such as imperfections all over the walls, ceilings, mismatched paint, my front door has a piece missing out of it and my master bath mirror was broken and they refused to fix it. I learned from 2 of my friends who bought a Lennar home in 2025 got to do a thorough walkthrough w/ blue tape, but I didn’t and I wish I had. Definitely, would have went w/ any other builder, but Lennar was cheaper. You get what you pay for. ... More

Finance was a nightmare, constantky saying one last thing. Then workmanship is shotty, some things caught before clising that they said they would fix. THEY LIED! DON'T TRUST. NASTY PEOPLE. Can't wait for Karma to pay them a visit.

Issues arise, I put tickets in. They get marked completed. Nothing‘s completed. The issues I had at my final walk-through still have not been done even though I’ve also put in more tickets and those have also been marked completed. I do not think there is insulation in parts of my house because the walls are paper thin I can hear people talking outside the vehicles on the road sound like I’m sitting in the road. I have a gas leak that has not been checked, even though I have made them aware. Also when they sent people to clean the house, they left the owners manual in the dishwasher and it burned on the heating element and two months later after scrubbing the dishwasher clean my dishwasher still smells horrific the initial individual that I was in contact with who was supposed to help me with any problems has completely vanished and will not return my messages or phone calls. The only reason I am giving some any stars is because there has been three individuals who have been overly kind but out of two fistfuls that is all. everybody else that I talk to just says oh I understand and nothing gets done and the HOA that I am paying an exuberant amount of money for is doing nothing in this neighborhood. There are cars parked all over the street. People’s yards are full of weeds trash cans are left out all the time and these are all things that should not be happening. ... More

My tenant noticed gas leak smell at home and only resulted to finger pointing. Lennar pointing to Appliance Company and the Appliance Company pointing to plumbing and Gas Company. The Gas Company then pointing to the others. When nobody is taking ownership I expect Lennar to bring all of them together and get the issue resolved. My experience has been very painful 2 months into the purchase. Also at the purchase time I was not told that HOA is going to take trash ownership too. I was expecting trash to be another utility that the tenants owns and pays for. It makes no sense for it to be including in HOA. ... More

The paint used for the defects found on the walls or doors did not match. We have not even moved in the house and there is a crack in the living area already.

The entire experience was trash from start to finish. Poor communication, wasted time, mixed messages, and zero follow through. I had to chase answers, repeat myself, and deal with unnecessary confusion that should never happen in a basic transaction. The only good part of this experience was Ana. She was helpful, responsive, and actually did her job. Without Ana, this would have been a complete failure. Everyone else dropped the ball. I wouldn’t recommend this place based on my experience

First off the experience was terrible. The only good thing is that the house is put together mostly right. Only here a month and a breaker went out already. I the buying process we had to drop 23,000 on closing costs because lennar did not cover anything. No offer or nothing to cover any of the cost on top of paying 261000 in a loan all because we did not use their loan officer or lender. We did not use their inspector either. The yard was done terrible and they only put in grass 15 feet from the back door. Our yard is at least 60 feet by 60 feet. The house was dirty when we arrived with dirt all over the floor and trash in the yard. The garage had lots of paint chips on the ground and we found parts that were laying on the ground with no explanation of where they are supposed to go. No blinds were put in and internet was not activated before we got there. Also the internet is supposed to be included in the HOA but we were not asked if we wanted it in the first place. All in all the experience was terrible, no consideration for us as buyers and moving costs and charged full closing cost which made us dislike lennar very much. Would not recommend to anyone. ... More
