Lennar Reviews in Sacramento, CA

As a first time home buyer, my experience with LENNAR was undoubtedly a great one. Smooth communication all around! All questions were answered from sales to close of escrow. I would recommend LENNAR to others looking to purchase

I had an an amazing experience with my sales agent, my home was built fairly quickly. We closed on time. No issues with my walk through. Everyone I met with was amazing. Anytime I need help with anything now that I'm in my home I put in a request and they come right out. I'm very pleased and satisfied and have no complaints. As far as materials and products go there are a few things that I see that could be better....for instance the paint is chipping on the corner of my walls and that started immediately after I moved in. There are small things like that that could be better but overall I love my new home and I love my Lennar family. I highly recommend Lennar! ... More

The buying process was easy. The person who worked with us was wonderful. The whole team was responsive and helpful throughout the whole process, start to finish. However, our initial appointment with your title company was a disaster ( no show and no call). We had to contact them to find out what was going on. Very disorganized and making excuses. We do have some issues with the cabinets and baseboards, that have not been resolved. We are pleased with the model we chose and neighborhood. Lennar builds a nice home.

Great home...great community

The buying process was a breeze. Just that initial closing was irritable. Overall awesome experience

So fare I am happy.

97% complete, example plumber came to fix the water heater and faucet , tighten the faucet and checked the water heater. After leaving the issue still needs attention, 3% not corrected.

Moving to El Dorado Hills after 39 years in our previous home in Sonoma County was a major decision. Lennar’s step by step process, the personnel assigned to us from sales, move-in to customer care has helped make our transition a smooth move. The floor plan we chose meets our criteria to include an open plan with 9 foot high ceilings, generous windows, large sliding glass doors, energy efficient construction and appliances, fire sprinklers and solar panel system.

Inside of the house structurally also there was a difference in one of the bedrooms. They claim ei but they did not include little things like hand towel holders. Their craftsmanship for details like painting , switch covers installed, base boards is not upto the mark. I thought Beazer was bad and had much higher expectations from Lennar. Plus not much choice for kitchen counter and cabinet upgrades.

Love my Lennar home and the community

We bought at Gala in Folsom and love the house and neighborhood. During our preliminary walk through, there were a lot of issues with attention to details. We were very vocal and met with the supervisor and insisted that the finishes needed to be comparable to the model home. That required changing out windows, repainting trim, cleaning up caulking, etc. We are keeping a list of repairs for the 90 day walk through, including another window that is inoperable and a faulty doorbell/security system. All that being said, we love the house plan and the neighborhood.

Still waiting for repairs 120 days moved in.

The taping job on my ceilings shows all the joints , especially in the bedrooms. I believe they skipped a coat of mud. They were behind at the time doing my Sheetrock , tape and skim. They had one more coat to put , I went to look the next day and it was textured. I’d rather leave it now the way it is than have them come mess my house up to fix it. Painting was horrible on the exterior. Shadows everywhere through the paint where the paint is not solid and you can see the grey stucco. I’ll be repairing this year because mostly we don’t like the color but also because the quality. Everything else we loved. All the Lennar people are great. ... More

The sales team, design center and construction mangers in addition to Chris that handles the warranty are excellent and appreciate any questions or feedback we have. The quality of the materials/workmanship from the drywall company was below par. So many mistakes and problems with them after I closed.

Good for active residents but need to address not so active resident who have dogs. Not even a small dog park or grass in the community center for dogs to play. In my estimation about 40% of the residents have dogs. Even Millenials now love dogs :)

We run out of hot water every time we shower.

very good in general for the price paid

We LOVE our new house. Let me start with that. No regrets on buying it. There is a glaring downside though. Every week something else is wrong with the electrical mostly, or occasionally something else. Still would buy again, but they really need to get better at pre move in inspections, and hire competent electricians.

Very simple process. Answers and time line straight forward

We bought a Model from Lennar. Everything in the Model were purchased in the home buying. Only wished more time was given during the walk thru (2 hours) to discuss items in the Model requiring fix or touch-up. The only statement we were given was we bought the Model in an "AS IS CONDITION". We were sadden that Lennar sells a new home in an As Is Condition. Inasmuch, we were still excited to live in a Smart Home. Wished the builder would have provided additional Smart Devices instead of receiving just the minimum to get the home started.

Overall we were happy but I wouldn’t say everything was perfect.

Steve our sales person communicated well to make the purchase enjoyable. Moved in on time as promised . Homeowner orientation with dru and Danny and Amazon went well. We love the layout of our new home and the neighbors on the block. Excellent community layout and amenities. Had some minor issues with the house but Igor has taken care of them. His communication and follow up is outstanding. We are very pleased with our purchase decision and recommend these homes for over 55 active adults.

Great

Please make adjustments if the buyers want to make minor adjustments before the build.

I have had granite in 3 other homes and never had to seal it right after purchase. Home Depot gives a 15 year warranty on their granite purchases for kitchens and bathrooms. After I moved in I started to get stains on my granite in the kitchen and bathroom and that is when I found out I had to seal it. They have a full page disclosure in the thick purchase contract that covers them that they are not responsible for stains in granite. Very convenient. I put a sack of oranges on the granite and one leaked and now I have a huge stain on may brand new counter. I called a professional grout sealer company and they would not take the job as they said they can not guarantee on this type of poor granite. Lennar then sent someone out who said they can't do anything about it and said that was all they could do. After I pushed back. I understand they are sending someone out after the lock in place is over. My concern is why use such bad material in such an important location as kitchen and bathroom and why was I not warned upfront when I picked it out so I would have at least had a chance to pick something else out. So my brand new kitchen has a big old stain on my granite which to me only means they use substandard materials. ... More
