Lennar Reviews

Cheryl processed the loan for me. Absolutely could not happen without her. She went way out of her way to help me. Dion is an honest broker. Good man. Lennar underwriting was a nightmare to say the least. My credit is/was perfect. Worst experience.

The sales rep and the loan officer are very unprofessional.

Ultimately, I'm happy with my new house, everything was built properly, and professionally, and if there was a defect, it was fixed. My Experience was annoying during the process of signing the paperwork. Whenever they needed me to sign something, it was while i was at work helping out a customer, and because I did not sign or read their emails immediately, I was sent a second notice that read, "as of this time, on this day, at this hour we sent this document to you and you have still not responded." how rude and they continued this behavior after I've told them multiple times that I'm not available. The communication among themselves was not great, because I had to repeat myself over, and over again that I may be waiting to receive the documents, or information they are asking for. That didn't stop them, they continued to pester me to give them the documents or to sign their documents. Ultimately, everything worked out, but they are extremely pushy for you to sign their documents. They need to relax, and calm down, I still managed to have everything ready before the deadline, but not because they rushed me. I did not need to be rushed though, so for that I give them a 1 since I cannot give them a 0. But the house is fine, I'm happy as my first house, so credit needs to be given where credit is due. Jordan was a great Sales person though, he Helped me find the house, and was very kind to explain so many details about owning a house and the process to buy one. I'd like to give a great Shout out to him. Thank you Jordan for all your help! ... More

Did not enjoy the house buying experience but have very much enjoyed living in the house.

The lack of a coordinated messaging for closing fate, initial purchase price fluctuations, nonresponsiveness from the NHC, numbers changing in estimate sheet the day before closing, etc etc pick an unpleasant moment and I experienced it! Now, the ladies at Lennar closing and Crystal from Inspections made up for the anxiety riddled moments! Oh, and the response for when you place a service request is stellar!

Get everything fixed before you move in.... landscaping is a mess....put in for your concernd

Regarding the purchase process, the organization is very bad, they approved my credit knowing the conditions of my immigration status, and when they were going to give me the house one day before signing, they rejected my credit for something they already knew from the beginning, they asked for any type of identification and papers that no other lender asks for, regarding the house, the paint is very bad, the finishes and doors are of poor quality, they did not give me alarm systems, regarding the Guarantees have responded quickly, but the paint people continue to do a bad job, but regarding the guarantees, Lennar has tried to solve the problems quickly. ...

The lending and purchasing was terrible. I have other co workers and friends who just gave up and didn’t move here because of the process. I’ve shared this a few times with Lennar and no acknowledgement for your sales team. The home itself and lot is amazing.

First and last! I highly DONT recommend Lennar builders. Beautiful home but the process was painful and put us in horrible living situations.

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

Lennar is not a bad company for homes. But I would recommend you to finance with another company.

The home we purchased was one of the model homes. We are very pleased with our home. It was Lennar mortgage company that gave us so much grief.

You pay for what you get with Lennar. Eagle Home Mortgage is the worst company I have ever worked with.

I been closed this house for about 4 months and lennar still need to repair stuff from my house, I been losing money all this time. and just one or two persons call me to see what happens, but I still waiting. so disappointed

Gail was great but Melanie not so much. She was very unresponsive as our assigned concierge. Whenever she did respond it was very vague and not helpful. The loan process was daunting but I made my way through it. In my opinion my loan officer Mrs Jennifer Casey was good but I felt as though the curse of knowledge got the best of her. This was my first time buying a home and it was tough to navigate certain terms and contracts as I was expected to sign things with no walkthrough. Maybe this isn’t Lennars responsibility but it would be value added if you had a program that puts a first time homebuyers mind at ease. I acknowledge that I may have caused a bit of a rift by deciding to buy a different home as my home was being built but I was rushed into signing and processing paperwork because it was the end of the month. They even had the builders rush to fix things found in our inspection that didn’t get fully fixed until weeks after we moved in. My overall experience was underwhelming and I will own a piece of that as I should have done better with knowing the home buying process and accepted the consequence that come along with signing for a house last minute. ...

Once we had an agreed upon price and I was ready to buy the particular home, the salesperson raised the price like $10000. shady business tactics by Lennar. Won’t be getting my business any longer

Whole process was very aggravating. From the delays to the lack of communication. Move in dates were pushed back 4 months. There was a constant rotation of realtors. Value is decent compared to larger cities. Disappointed in the lack of options for the home. Came with basic white cabinets and a horrible vinyl flooring. I do love the future plans for the area.

Holly was amazing and was very responsive and helpful at every question or issue that arised. Carter was helpful with anything we needed. The large issue has been the lawyer and analyst they missed a few things and rushed through the paperwork missing multiple things and causing issues which to this day have still not been figured out. Tom and Diane were all over the place and contradicting themselves and each other through the whole process. We are still out almost 1000 because of they wrote a check to a creditor that can't be cashed and we have waited nearly two month for this issue to be fixed for something that was paid off in July and we closed end of September. They missed this and tried to give some terrible excuse for the reasons why. They made a mistake and its been unacceptable the way they have tried to fix the situation or I should say haven't fixed the situation. Ive sent in numerous documents stating its paid off and I still have not had the checked changed to my name so I can recoup my own money I paid twice now. On the positive the house is great , love the location, everything else has been wonderful but that situation is beyond unacceptable at this point. It seems oh well you closed so not our problem we messed up tough luck. That will get fixed maybe at some point if not you're out 1000 ... More

Everything was great throughout the buying process. Once you close, the attentiveness and assistance stops. Even trying to contact the closing department and get a callback or response is practically impossible. In addition to that, at times there are construction workers violating City of Laurel city ordinances by conducting construction before the hours that are in the ordinance.

I wanted to bring to your attention what has been one of the most disappointing experiences I’ve had in the process of closing a home. I traveled from Atlanta to Spartanburg with my family to attend the acceptance walkthrough and complete the closing the following day. We took two days off from work and booked a hotel stay, intending to celebrate an important milestone. Unfortunately, what should have been a joyful occasion turned into an extremely frustrating and upsetting experience. To begin with, the acceptance walkthrough was poorly handled. There was no greeting or even a simple handshake. We were told it would be completed quickly as all issues had already been addressed and all that was needed was our signature. However, since we had arranged a virtual celebration, I walked through the home and pointed out a few concerns that either required attention or clarification. Specifically: Lawn Condition: The lawn looked dead. I asked for some assurance that it was healthy or that any future issues would be addressed. Washer and Dryer: These appeared to be very basic models. I wanted to confirm whether they matched what was originally promised or if there was a downgrade. Garage and Refrigerator Cleaning: The garage had not been cleaned properly, and there were visible fingerprints on the refrigerator, likely from the installation. When we brought up these concerns, the property manager responded in an extremely rude and unprofessional manner. He accused us—and even our children—of deliberately damaging the property to sabotage the closing. This accusation was both baseless and offensive. At no point were we alone in the house. We were wearing socks during the walkthrough, and my daughter remained in the car with our pet, as pets are not allowed inside. We had no reason whatsoever to interfere with the process, especially given the time, travel, and effort we had invested to ensure everything went smoothly. When we expressed our objection to this behavior, the property manager asked us to leave and slammed the door in our face. We did not re-enter the home after that. Frankly, many people in our position might have walked away from the deal altogether. However, despite this treatment, I still proceeded with signing the acceptance documents from my car parked outside, simply to avoid any further delays or inconvenience—for your sake and ours. To make matters worse, we were informed 2-3 hours before that the closing had been moved to August 8th. Had this change been communicated earlier, we could have avoided the travel and time off from work. This entire experience is in stark contrast to the home we purchased from another builder like Pulte, where everything was handled with professionalism, respect, and clear communication. Overall, the experience here felt poorly managed and completely unprofessional. I would like to formally escalate this matter to the highest level. Please provide me with the contact details of the regional head or the appropriate person I can speak with to report this incident. ... More

First off there was no model to look at! There was no shower door in master shower; no towel racks in any of the 3 bathrooms. No grab bars for us seniors. We had to purchase our own garage opener for the small garage. The patio out back - you can’t even put a chair on it (it’s too small). I wasn’t allowed to change the carpet in the bedrooms to tile unless I paid for it after closing. We had to get the plumber out for the water heater and washing machine

I am not sure who and what kind of backwards hiring is happening here, but these are the most unhelpful, most pushy, group of people I have ever dealt with. They are lucky my Home Concierge and loan officer were kind because the entire team outside of them is unorganized and unprofessional. All the way up until closing no one could tell me how much money I had to bring to the signing, no one could find my keys after they figured out the money situation, and I am still having questions and NO ONE from Lennar wants to help they hang up right after I ask a question. All I need to know is who can answer my questions if not the people I got this house from. DO NOT buy here. These people are not trustworthy just from their inability to answer me now, the rushing of the entire process, the disorganization. They are in charge of one of the most important purchases of your life and they cannot even do their job well. ... More

Overall, this wasn’t a pleasant home buying experience. It was very difficult with connecting with the initial representative with questions and she never got back in touch with me. I had to ask the loan employee to assist with the connection multiple times. Once I got into the home the Lennar has been very response to my needs as it relates to fixing things. She has been very awesome and I sincerely appreciate her.

Buying experience was really bad! The only reason I kept on the process is because our home price rebate was really good and because of our realtor, but lennar sales agent was really not helpful and I wish I could say differently but I can’t. Seller did not answer a lot of our questions, deflected a lot of simple questions and at the end they didn’t even show up for our key delivery. I would not recommend them to any family members or friends, I’m sure lennar has really good people working for the company but the ones who helped me, were not!

Our closing process with Lennar was highly unsatisfactory. The representative, Diana, displayed unhelpful and defensive behavior, particularly when questioned about inconsistencies in the final numbers, including a missing wire transfer. Furthermore, an agreement was made regarding the use of buyer funds for non-recurring expenses, which Diana contradicted by stating Lennar's historical policy of not covering such costs even though it was agreed to be paid we had to pay the cost. During the signing of closing documents, several discrepancies were identified, which Diana prioritized over accuracy, insisting on signing on time despite incorrect paperwork. This caused delays while corrections were made. After closing, additional payment was unexpectedly requested due to inaccurate figures once again. The realtor commission funds were also held longer than necessary. Diana stated that HUD would not be paid until funds were received. Though the funds were eventually paid to Lennar, the $17,000 HUD payment, for a closing in April, remains unpaid as of July. The check was initially issued with incorrectly missing account information, returned, and re-issued to the wrong company, demonstrating disregard for payment instructions. Attempts to address this with Diana resulted in blame directed towards the lender, and she took no accountability. This experience with Lennar has been incredibly frustrating and negatively impacted the homebuying process." we are currently working on attempting to collect our 17k payment so we can pay hud directly hopefully the person reading this can help us expedite our payment to us since Lennar title can’t get it right. ...
