My home still needed a few weeks of work before, but was still handed over. My recommendation is to do multiple walk throughs beforehand and not sign the pre inspection until everything is fixed. You can tell these homes were really rushed as well as closing dates. This is my 3rd new built home and 3 different builders, Lennar is at the bottom. If I could do it over again I would have been more patient and just stayed in my previous home with other than size had zero issues.

They are a big builder that took advantage of California real estate boom, built too fast and not great quality. Their communication and responsiveness is incomplete.

Poor plumbing installation with 2 showers leaking on Day 1. Windows on first floor breaking after 1 month, cause uncertain. Bad experience with blinds/shutter installation from the Design Center vendor.

On-time delivery, responsive sales, not-so-great quality of finish

Delivery was spot on time, despite challenging circumstances, sales team was responsive and supportive, home move-in experience was good... only problem is with the quality of the finish... looks like poor supervision leading to too many issues post handover. Also, ticket resolutions is painfully slow.

Great customer service but not great construction quality

We are happy with our new home but the quality it is in the lower end for a new build. Thy need to do a much better work during their internal QC process or selecting contractors. Found several issues after moving in and we eventually had to get an external inspector. Zero attention to detail. Still haven't found a single window frame that it is properly level in the house. Silver lining is that they provide a one year warranty and the customer service rep for my community is doing an excellent job helping us solving them.

Not satisfactory

If I have to start again, I will only buy ready to move in house. We were promised to close our house house on march and we got the house on September. They delay it for 6 months. Because of that we are paying $850 more every month. Key hand over process is lame. I am buying a house not a toy. They handover the key at outside of the garage and he/she left the welcome goodies bag on the floor. It was awful.

Lots of technical issues and contractors not available to fix
- Shahin M.

- October 07, 2022
- Escondido, CA
The purchase process was overall smooth. But there were a lot of issues in the house that had to be resolved. Considering that the last walkthrough was a day before our move-in day, we decided to ignore many marked touch-ups that we had requested and yet were still not fixed. Upon move-in though, we started to face many more bugging issues, such as a randomly opening garage door due to faulty switch circuit, smart frontdoor lock that was failing to pair due to faulty installation, broken patio screen upon installation, broken parts all over the place, pest infections that were in place from ...

I found the perfect retirement home at 3Roots. It was expensive but exactly what I wanted. Loan and escrow were fairly simple compared to my previous home. Had a few problems with various items but they were all attended to by Lennar.

Lennar is great company and produces beautiful houses. Maybe it’s just the market and material shortage that drives the houses prices. Overall I did have a great and awesome experience with the Lennar sales team.

There have been a few things that haven’t been great. Carpet was stained before we had our walk through. I called it out and it was bandaid fixed but the stains are all back. We have reports in for a fix but it is taking very long and response times are awful. We have also had issues with our stairs that have been reported and her no response. Disappointed since this is our 1st house. Figured Lennar would of been better than this.

Lennar - Mixed experience.

Mixed experience. Pretty good value with their Everything's Included packages, however the catch is that there is no room for customization outside of flooring, window treatment, and cabinets/counters if your timing is good. What's not included is solar, gutters, and drainage, which are some basic items other builders have included. But overall a large number of "upgrades" that are standard. So if you like a lot of options, Lennar is not the builder for you. Customer service is a bit sub par compared to other builders. Perhaps it had to do with COVID and the absolutely insane seller's market ...

It took longer than expected, but in the end, we are glad to be here !!

The home has really some really good features, and some bad ones. The finishing isn't as good as it could be, and a lot of areas show that, especially the flooring. The drip irrigation installed was already broken the second day we moved in, and then a pipe burst a couple of weeks later. Have been in the home for about a month now, and have already submitted tickets. The best part is the responsiveness to the tickets. Diana and Moe have been a huge help.

The sales team, was great. The floorplan and model of the home is very good. The quality of the materials is fair to good. There have been many problems with Several issues that have arisen since moving in. Air-conditioning issues, electrical issues, water tank issue. I do realize they’re still working on building but the attention to detail prior to moving is substandard. The responsiveness of the team to fix these issues is up to par though.
