Lennar Reviews in Huntsville, AL

The buying process was straightforward due to the experienced individuals providing the service. Great customer service.

The grass I rec’d was dead. Be sure you get healthy grass!

I would never buy a house from Lennar again! Lennar cut every corner possible to increase their profit. My townhome in the Estuaries in Huntsville is missing drywall in a closet, paint is peeling from the walls, and they didn't install crown molding or kitchen pendent lights to cut costs even though they used pictures with crown molding and lights in the advertisement. Multiple cabinets are broken by what looks like someone standing on the edge of the cabinet. My neighbor's shower had mortar or concrete poured down the drain by the builder and had to have his entire shower plumbing jackhammered to break up the concrete. I wish I could upload pictures for everyone to see the poor quality! ... More

Lennar provided exceptional service during walk through and made certain that every issue was taken care of. Even during the first month, as we had questions, Jackson quickly answered each one and helped us to make our transition into our new home a great success. As part of the HOA however, Lennar leaves a lot to be desired. We submitted a request almost 25 days ago and Lennar refuses to work on it or to answer questions. In their covenants, they state that if they do not address the issue in 30 days, then the request is deemed as disapproved. So I guess it is time to get an attorney to see if they can light a fire under Lennar's butt. ... More

The review is supported, educated and energized in assisting with your home progress/steps. Overall I love my home until I have referred other clients. Thanks a million

Some incentives we were told we would get and did not. Lack of communication on the front end. The CM, warranty and closing team were great. Issues after closing were addressed in a timely manner.

Lennar has been nothing but prompt & professional

The original house we got on contract for was not the house that was built. No drawers in any of the bathrooms, and not the kitchen cabinets that were in the home that we were told we were buying. We were not told about certain credit requirements for the interest rates until after we were under contract. We were told that we could not close in a certain month and then were rushed to close in that same month to get the home off of the books. The utilities were promised to be on at the time of the home inspection and were not on BOTH times the home was to be inspected. We finally had to back out of the original deal because of the multiple misinformations and seemingly overlooked items.Would not recommend Lennar to friends. ... More

My experience was good when dealing with Lennar and their personnel. Kathy, the realtor, was fantastic along with Ryan, the construction manager. Nick, the warranty POC, has been great in the couple of minor warranty issues I have had. My only complaint is whomever they are paying to do the cleaning before the move in does not do a very good job. The amount of sheetrock dust residue left over has been overwhelming to clean.

Lenders I worked with, (Jami in financing), rude and unprofessional. Building manager, (Tyler), (Natures Trail), makes promises that doesn't t come to fruition and loses key to home to my front door. Staff overall friendly, but once locked in, completely fade to 0. If Lennar wants to beat the competition, they should train their staff to be there for the customers even after the closing date.

AVOID. I would strongly discourage anyone from considering this company for a home purchase - our initial experience with them was absolutely terrible. My husband and I were full of excitement about buying our first home, especially with a baby on the way, and the prospect of living near our friends. Unfortunately, dealing with them turned our dream into a nightmare. Right from the beginning, their responsiveness was abysmal - either taking forever to reply or not responding at all. Despite seeing other homes with the same floorplan but with far superior amenities, we were told that our home lacked those features due to supply issues, as our street was among the last ones they were constructing, or just plans changed. This meant we ended up with subpar accommodations. Adding to our frustrations, they installed some of the light switches in crazy places that don't make sense, and the attic is practically inaccessible due to the HVAC unit and duct work being installed in the storage area, much different form the other houses we have seen with the same floor plan. The weeks leading up to the closing were the worst. Communication within the company was nonexistent, and they frequently misplaced our documents, only to demand them urgently at inconvenient times, like 3p.m. on a Friday. They consistently blamed us for their own shortcomings, despite us providing evidence of our timely responses. This cycle of incompetence and stress dragged on for weeks, far from the smooth home-buying journey we had hoped for. Even when it came to the closing day, they managed to mess up. Despite delaying our closing twice, they still couldn't get their act together. We ended up spending almost five hours in the title office waiting for documents that hadn't been sent over. Other home buyers we spoke to mentioned that their closing processes were swift, contrasting sharply with our ordeal. We had movers waiting, and our moving plans were disrupted due to their incompetence. To top it all off, when we finally received the keys to our new home, they were the wrong ones. We discovered that we were given the wrong home folder as well. It's baffling how such basic errors could occur. Fortunately, the contact details in the folder were incorrect, because we did try to call and let her know they gave us her keys. We eventually got in touch with our sales rep and loan officer. That evening, our sales representative made an effort to assist us, but discovered that the keys were located at their office with no duplicates available. Conversely, our loan officer dismissed the situation with laughter and requested that we visit the office early the next morning to return the packet. However, the whole situation was a testament to the unprofessionalism of this company. Even after moving into our home and concluding our dealings with Lennar, they continue to be a source of stress for us. It appears that they sold our mortgage shortly after the closing without transferring our information and payments to the new loan company. Consequently, my husband had to spend several more hours on the phone to resolve the issue and ensure our home insurance payments were properly processed. In summary, dealing with Lennar was nothing short of a nightmare. ... More

I told Shawn what I wanted and could comfortably afford and she showed me several with everything I wanted in a home. It wasn’t an awesome experience. She made it easy.

The communication was horrible up and down. I am military and had to constantly ask to change my schedule because they were delayed. The flooring that is used in the house is horrible and whomever installed it did a bad job. I feel the house was a rush job. I don’t feel like the people that was involved with the paperwork were not on the same page with each other everyone lines were crashed as far as dates

There's a lot of little issues with the house, mostly cosmetic. The dishwasher door doesn't close it's scraping the top of the counter. There's a lot of shotty work. The door frames are about an inch from the floor so they just filled it in with caulk. The grout is like sand and it just dusts away when you clean, it it just comes out from in between the tiles.. several broke in half quarter round pieces that they just fixed it with caulk, one door frame is even made with two separate pieces of wood that they just poorly patched but my biggest problem is the fact that this house has laminate plank flooring. I was told that it was lvp flooring, luxury VINYL plank flooring. On the listing and on the website for these homes it says hardwood which I knew it wasn't hardwood. On the appraisal for the house it says Hardwood but it's laminate garbage and I know it is because my dog threw up in the middle of the night and now the floor is warped and vinyl doesn't do that. The warranty guy I think his name was Joe even said it was vinyl flooring when he was doing the new home orientation. I wouldn't even have considered this house I wouldn't have even looked at these homes if I knew it was laminate flooring because my previous home had laminate flooring. ... More

Alex worked tirelessly to ensure all the concerns that I had were completed to my satisfaction. Love my new home. This area would be fortunate to have more Alex's. Please give him a special thanks from me!!

Thanks for fixing issue.

I love the house, however going through Lennar Mortgage was a nightmare! We sat at the closing five hours waiting on the paperwork. Again, we love the houses, but do not use the mortgage company.

We are happy with our new home

Not a great experience

The professionalism, responsiveness, and friendliness of the team made the home buying experience easy to management. Also, the quality and craftsmanship of the home demonstrates a well built structure which I adore.

I did not have any major issues. The minor issues I did have was addressed and taken care of in a satisfactory manner and time. The builder was very good about answering any questions and giving us a lot of information about the house.

Lennar initially tried to sell the house 15k over price of the property advertised on THEIR website and did not honor that price. Furthermore, when the appraisal came back 15k under sale price they did not notify me and show me the appraisal even though that was part of the contract, I had to find out for myself a day before closing. I have been in the house for 6 weeks and still have warranty items open including a window that was not installed correctly with an inch gap at the top allowing water to come in. That being said, the construction manager is great; very friendly and very responsive. ... More

The assistant foreman for our neighborhood (Michael) is wonderful he went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of to the best of his ability. We closed with unresolved issues. That’s on us, however, we had no where to go since our home sold and closing was the same exact day that we were scheduled to close on our new Lennar home. That day was a nightmare. We signed a contract on a house that was 97% done and still almost didn’t close because they waited until the very last minute to do things. The grout in our wet areas are stained with red mud pretty bad. We let that go. The grout work itself was subpar at best. There are several other issues but again we had no where to go. The biggest issue is Lennar cuts corners where they shouldn’t. They put 1 stage units in these homes that are not for a climate like ours. Our home had 70% humidity. The AC people came out and basically rigged the unit to run longer somehow. Now we set the temp at 73 and it cools to 71 and that was their fix. We tried to address with Lennar but it’s on us now. 2 stage units are always recommended for humid climates if not variable speed units. We didn’t think to even check this as we had a Breland/Lennar home in Madison and they didn’t do this. We had a nice unit that worked as it should. Beware, after the sale, you are SOL in what could be a potentially harmful situation later just because they want to line their pockets a little more. ... More

Paid top dollar for a home that was seven months later than promised and not top notch in the least. Had to get Lennar leaders involved. Subcontractors are lacking. Finally got a new construction manager who is doing his best to fix all the issues, but you don't get what you pay for. Pool and community areas are likely another year before complete if we are lucky. Still get to pay HOA fees. A lot of over promising and under delivering.

Thanks for your help, to get my daughter and grandkids a home!
