Lennar Reviews in Los Angeles, CA

The home is well built for the most part. Although we're dealing with quite a bit of little things here and there, like outlets not working, or homes not able to be wired by internet companies even though those are our only options. Not sure who's at fault but some of this just seems a little silly given it's a new construction.

Responsive, fair quality, pricey, better layout needed

Overall the process was pretty good, and we were given detailed walk-throughs to identify any issues, which they took care of. We were disappointed that the closing took two weeks longer than expected, but that seems to have been due to city issues not in Lennar's control. Overall we are happy with the final product.

Bad finishing and house doesn’t feel like cleaned. Windows are dirty and issues regarding finishing all over.

It’s a beautiful home…but builder’s attention to detail towards quality vs quantity, a lot to be said Missed a lot a details that stick out now…spend to much time trying to fix details afterwards…

Homes are nicely designed, making good use of the little space. But home is not still complete with issues waiting to be fixed after 3 months.

Overall, the buying experience was not bad but quality of the materials for the amount we paid should be at a higher standard. And a better finishing. Thank you.

Had a lovely, attentive, and thorough homebuying experience with Hyatt and would highly recommend him. The only detail I’d call out is I didn’t learn about the required solar lease/purchase until I had already made a purchase decision. If you appreciate detail you may have a frustrating first few weeks (maybe months) trying to get issues fixed. Missing network outlet, subfloor squeaks, sheetrock mud embedded in carpet fibers, broken shower tile, uneven tile, broken recirc light and the list goes on. I am still working through tickets that have been open for over a month. If you buy with Lennar be sure to be as thorough as you can on pre-close walkthrough. They say there’s no need to worry because you have a year warranty if you don’t catch something, but if you don’t they lose incentive to fix it in a timely manner and you will be left managing open tickets when you’re in the home. With that said the price the price paid made this a great value and I don’t regret the decision at all - would do it again. I appreciate the features included in the home even if I don’t use them all. ... More

The craftsmanship and workmanship of value compared to the price I paid is very disappointing

We looked for quite awhile and landed in paradise just north of LA. Jasmine was beyond welcoming and knew exactly where to take us - to our dream home! Like all new homes, issues come up but the process with Dru and his team are second to none. So timely with repairs, so welcoming for feedback, and exceptional with making us feel at ease in our new community. If you are looking to move out of the city and land in paradise with a team that puts you first - Lennar is second to none!

We love the home just there was poor communication.

Overall I’m happy I went with lennar, trying to work with lennar mortgage was a complete nightmare. So I ended up going with a different mortgage company.

Smart home, smarter designer. I like the way they think for all details using in these homes.

From the start it was difficult bought a lot put our deposit down and a few weeks later we were told that we lost out lot to a cash buyer ! When we decided on another lot we had sold our house and had cash available ! The lending experience was a night mare ! We had a great realtor and helped us but it was right up to the end that they wanted several documents that had been given before ! The communication was not good and the follow up was very slow ? It was very aggravating and nerve racking the entire way !!

For the price of this home, the attention to detail should have been greater. The amount of paint splattered and uneven texture and cracks in the caulking is sloppy. I found beer cans in my closet during one of my walk throughs. I have permanent suction cup markers on my counter tops and stains on my UPGRADED wood floors from careless installation. I love the design of my home but the crappy workmanship is very noticeable and disappointing.

Love the home and the layout but the devil and the details definitely made the ownership process a bit lackluster. I had a ton of post-closing repairs (minor to medium) that still aren't complete. The good thing is no one is pushing back on the repairs it's just the sense of urgency you would home for a brand new home.

The experience was like I was purchasing a home using the sellers agent to represent me and the agent's primary concern was in the interest of the seller not mine.

Overall I’m happy with my decision to buy here. The construction manager is AMAZING!! Nick! I mean, I cannot say enough great things about him and his overall support. My experience was however tainted by Christine the sales person. She was rude, distasteful in the way she spoke to me and my realtor.

All was fine leading up to purchase.Once purchased, your just another number. Slow response to issues. In my case, main issue was quartz counter, peaked at main joint, said it was normal. Interior paint is very cheap. One wipe and your removing paint. Sliding glass lock mechanism is too hard to even open. Hung my own window treatments, nothing is square. Cheap appliances, refrigerator has no capacity. All in all, cheaply built home.

The overall quality of home is good, the community is not, the landscaping in front of the house is lacking adequate plant material and the community slopes are a disaster. By not making your community improvements a priority (rec centers, slopes, front yard landscaping, street lights, sidewalks) you have and continue to impact your reputation and I would have to assume your sales. Also, the entrance gates do not appear to be designed to control foot traffic, Not sure if this is by design or not. I will need to review your EIR and conditions of approval.

At first I was impressed with the spaciousness of my condo. I was please with the value for the money spent. Now as things go wrong and I'm notice and report to Lennar for repairs, I feel that the quality of construction is superb but the quality of the subcontractors leaves much to be desired.

The value of the home is decent for CA. The walls are super thin. I was told I wouldn't hear neighbors as that was my concern with a condo style home. I hear every sound including garages and the closing of doors. I am happy with my home, but wish I'd known what to be prepared for.

My experience buying my new and first home was a little more stressful than I expected. I was pressured to move in before everything in my house was completely ready and fixed. Now I am still working on getting everything fixed 2 months later and still have to take time out of my schedule to be around for painters, repair people, drywallers, etc. when this should have all been taken care of before I even got my keys and moved in. Also every time I put a request in for a repair they make me schedule a virtual visit where I show the issue and then they let me schedule someone to come out. I think that is fine for certain problems; however, for more simple or straightforward issues I think that is honestly a waste of time considering I am a single homeowner and have a full time job. ...

Don't expect to walk into a perfect home. The builders needed to pay closer attention to the details. I've had a lot of issues. Wrong door handles, non working garage lights, leak in the pipe, uninstalled hoses and unleveled doors. It's frustrating to address all of these issues with different departments.

The house looked perfect from inside out but when we started living we found so many issues from day one. All three bathroom toilets had cracks on different areas and took almost 2 months to replace all three of them. Master bath tub faucet was dripping for a month even though they tried to fix it couple of times. Finally they figured out that it was installed wrong way and came up with a decision to cut the tub and fix it. We have another big issue with ants, it seems the house is built on top of ant hill. For the past 4 months we are struggling with army of ants that come out in the kitchen from behind cabinets and power sockets, in the bathroom from behind mirrors, and power sockets. We finished 2 one gallon ant killer and bought another gallon yesterday. Coyotes and crows are another issue. Starting 1-2 am coyotes start making noises and disturbing our sleep, starting 5:00-5:30 am crows start their noises. This is really annoying and frustrating, we never expected this much frustration. The city needs to do something about coyotes at least. For future building new houses my recommendation would be to put a door in master bathroom. We have to lock the master bedroom door in order to take a shower because the builder or designer decided that there’s no need to put a door in the master bedroom leading to bathroom. If I need to get something from master bedroom I have to wait till my husband finishes his shower. Hope all these issues are taken into consideration for future houses. ... More
