Lennar Reviews in Denver, CO

I was told that there would be blindes included for the house but they weren’t and there was NO discussion. Then the rain comes and I was hesitant to close because of the damage. I was assured that all would be takes care of. BUT the. Solar is on the roof waiting to be installed. I think that the quality of the home is not there ... The home that I moved from was built in 2013 and the quality is in that house. You have cut Back so much (no handles, lighting, fireplaces finish, flooring,carpet). The carpet upstairs in the house you can see the seams,When that was brought to your attention we were told nothing could be done; REALLY?. For what that house cost it is disappointing!!!! ... More

They need to know how poorly these homes are built and so many incomplete items …

The buying experience was great, but once in the home, things starting to come up and fall apart fast. The walls are not straight at all, some are very noticeable. The drywall is bad, in some spots, you can see gaps, and builders wiped or used silicone caulking, making it impossible to paint without sanding out the caulking. When we got the house, you expect a "brand new home" in some way clean. Not this one. It was very dirty, so we hired a professional house cleaner. Builders aren't about quality and do not respect other people's property that has already moved in. We had several issues with the builders, and the Lennar supervisor team did nothing or speak to you about the problems. We still have unresolved open items since we got the house, and we have been here for over two months. The quarts top are already falling out, and caulking around the entire house needs to be replaced since they did not do it right when building the house. We had simple wire issues, like not connecting the wires to the outlet correctly or upside down. Model homes are spot on, but once in the built home, it's a completely different story. They want cases for everything, and they won't talk to you about the problems. We have been waiting on a replacement Bolt lock since the move-in, and it has not been resolved because it's on "back order," but homes continue to get built, and we still have not received our Bolt lock and garage window trim. Will see in about 6 months or so to see if other issues come up. Very disappointed with the quality since these houses are not cheap at all, so would expect at least some quality work done. ... More

Several items in the house do not work and Lennar won’t correct

The sales associates were absolutely amazing hence the two stars, but that was it. The two months leading to closing on the home, we had miscommunication after miscommunication with the loan team and didn't receive confirmation on our loan into 2 days before closing pending documentation that we uploaded two months prior to closing. After moving in, there were some minor maintenance that needed taken care of and the Customer Care team was quick to address the tasks but prior to a week of heavy snowfall in our area, we attempted to park two sedan cars into the two-car garage and found that (with the elevation of the house) one side of the garage only allowed less than 3 inch clearance from the garage wall and the 7 stairs leading into the garage. After sending numerous pictures to Customer Care thinking this was a silly mistake that a 2 car garage couldn't fit 2 cars, we reached out with hopes that Lennar could narrow the stairs or pivot them to line the back of the garage. After several back and forth, we were told there was nothing they could do about the situation and that it was a common issue in another community. Although this may not be intuitive since you expect that when you purchase a home with a two-car garage, it'll fit 2 cars, please, please, please measure the garage and make sure your vehicle fits into the garage of your Lennar home. This may not be a common issue in the neighborhood as this was completely dependent on the elevation of the home but no one tells you having 7 steps in your garage means you have a 3-inch clearance for that side of your garage. In a state with heavy snowfall (in any place really), you want to be able to park in your garage with more than a 3-inch clearance on each side of your car... Our hopes of upgrading to an SUV is no longer in the picture unless we plan on parking outside which defeats the purpose of buying a home with a 2-car garage. Although we love our home, every time we go into the garage (which is every day), we constantly feel frustration with Lennar for thinking this is ok and not learning from their other communities that had this issue. There's a lot of pent up frustration in this review but we hope to share our experience and hope to deter any other home buyers from having a similar experience. ... More

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.

At the end of the day you are buying a home not a customer experience, but the customer experience was very poor on the sales side and has gone significantly downhill since the last time we purchased a Lennar Home. Missed meetings, lots of changing of staff, surprises on walkthrough day of “oh sales never mentioned that wasn’t included” etc. Overall what is being sold is a great value for a home and I hold that Lennar has great floor plans, but I hope they are able to better shape a positive interaction with its customers in the future in general and in this community, and stay a bit more true to the “everything included”, there are unique factors in the market right now but so much has been stripped out to save a few dollars and appease the corporation and shareholders. ...

closing day ,we just arrive the House was with the open doors ,, the dust was coming in ,, was sad because I was hope a great day for us an it was not, they repair the issues two weeks after closing,, hvac never had air filters,, the Hause was dirt dust everywhere ,, one hole drill in one bath why I dot kwon ?

Moved into my house with a gas oven but my house was built for electric. Construction manager k ew about it during my walk and guaranteed it wld be replaced by move in day.....didn't happen. My realtor and I called every number for Lennar we could find to get the situation resolved before Christmas dinner. Took three days to finally get it. Customer service was horrible. Can't believe that happened. Manager knew about my issue and stilll went on vacation with his family k owing I had no oven. Ridiculous

Customer Care follow up is lacking. my refrigerator needed to be replaced due to interior damage causing my produce to freeze repeatedly. I’m going on two months and I have still not received a replacement or any responses from LENNAR. Several other very simple repairs need to be completed (carpet repairs, electrical panel door latch repair, exterior paint touch up, cabinet door paint drips), but other than virtual meetings identifying the issues, no scheduling repairs or follow have been done. Very dissatisfied with Emily’s failure to return calls or follow up accordingly.

My experience with my previous home builder was very good. I came here expect ing same or better, but they just dont seem to care once the sale is made.

We were placed on the "VIP" list for our home in the volatile Colorado home buying market in November 2020. 48 hours before going under contract on an agreed price, we were told that our signing date was going to be pushed back a few months ( Due to covid of course ) and there would be a 20K plus price increase. We were told by a Lennar employee that the reason for the increase was because Lennar was underselling their homes so they increased prices to generate profits (this employee also stated this to our realtor ). We still continued our purchase despite the increase because if we hadn't, we would have had to start the whole home buying process again and Lennar knew this. On the joyous day when we were able to move into our dream home, we were presented keys to our home that didn't fit our lock. After trying a variety of keys we were given a universal "construction" key to come and go from our new home. When I called two days later to see when Lennar was going to fix this issue, I was told that I needed to call a locksmith. As I write this my solar panels aren't operational but my neighbors who moved in weeks after us has there's working, Lennar failed to install the gas line to our furnace , and we have had a variety of issues that Lennar deflects responsibility elsewhere. At the end of the day, our home is awesome! We haven't moved in 30 years. I never thought I would ever have a home built for our family. Its a beautiful investment. I simply wish our homebuying experience wasn't tarnished with so many unfortunate issues that Lennar doesn't really care about. But why should they, they have their money. I have addressed my concerns with several employees of Lennar, including the president of the Colorado area. I was told by a "customer service manager" regarding the furnace not having a gas line installed that the line was probably stolen. That during construction bandits raid new home construction taking hoses. I told this gentleman that the LENNAR PLUMBER apologized to me stating that it had never been installed and how it passed inspection was baffling. Still the customer service manager stuck to the theft explanation. I did my homework before choosing a Lennar home. I was excited. I thought we went with the best choice. I now wonder what KB, Taylor Morrison, Oakwood, and D.R. Horton's customer service looks like. In conclusion, in all fairness, I would like to think our circumstances are the exception to the norm. With all of the unique issues we've encountered, Lennar hasn't offered the curtesy to make up for their shortcomings. For me it's not about compensation. Its the principle of Lennar living up to their own hype. We LOVE our home and our new community. Our Lennar "everything included" home came with SO much that wasn't listed in the fine print! ... More

Lennar's motto is "Everything's Included" yes... but... Things that are NOT included: Washer/Dryer, Door/drawer pulls for cabinets, fence, back yard, more than one bare thin coat of paint. During initial conversations we were told that there were closeout specials and that we could make an offer and things would be accepted, this was far from true. During the loan processes we were told that 4% was available, this was also far from true. There were a lot of places where it felt like Lennar made promises that they had no intention of keeping and it very much soured me to the experience. We still went through with the purchase, I'm happy with the neighborhood, but feel that the value for the money simply isn't there. ... More

As soon as we signed the contract, it all went downhill…Lennar struggled and still have not completed items from the Home Celebration walk. You need to chase them to complete otherwise Lennar tries to close the items without completing. Condescending attitude while you bring outstanding items even if it is evident the items are just not completed or do not comply with industry standards.

I purchased a house from Lennar in the Harvest Ridge Community, Aurora, CO 80018, and my experience has been nothing short of terrible. Dealing with the sales associates and other representatives from Lennar has been a nightmare. My journey with them began in October 2023, and I booked my house in December 2023 with a closing date set for the end of February. Unfortunately, I encountered some delays in obtaining a few necessary documents from my office. Instead of understanding my situation and the six months I had already invested working with them, Lennar's staff chose to harass me relentlessly. They showed no empathy or human decency during this difficult time. Rather than offering any support or understanding, they saw my predicament as an opportunity to exploit me and my spouse. They imposed a hefty fine of 1% plus an additional $700, showing a complete lack of respect and basic humanity. I cannot believe I was dealing with such cold-hearted and unscrupulous individuals. Lennar's behavior was pathetic and inhumane. I strongly advise anyone considering purchasing a home in the Denver area to steer clear of this company. Save yourself the trouble and work with more reputable builders. I had plans to buy another home, and I am now working with different builders who have shown me what professional and humane service truly looks like. Avoid Lennar at all costs and protect yourself from their crook behavior. ... More

House was very dirty at the time of sale. Many items were not finished. Still lots of trash under the deck. Basement was left unbelievably dirty. People were mopping the floor with dirty mops in front of us during final walk through. Lennar tries to rush in the sale of the house, but don’t really care about the quality. Really bad experience to say the least.

We had problems before we even signed the contract. We should have taken that as a sign and not have went through with it. The communication and respect has to be most disappointing part. Buying a new house is supposed to be joyous moment and instead it was just met with people that didn’t care. From the sales person to the super I was beyond disappointed with the professionalism by Lennar. The day of closing will be a day I never forget and not in a good way. When you close on a house and don’t even receive the keys what’s the point. I can truly say that I’m ashamed to be a trade partner and have my company name associated with this disaster. Meeting new neighbors as only became a competition of who had the worst experience. For the record I respectfully lost that competition. I will give a huge shoutout to our customer care rep Kami as she has been the only one to genuinely care and try to make things right. I also know this review doesn’t mean anything and judging by the whole process we’ve had no one at Lennar will care. ... More

This review is a redo of the previous one. The system did not like that I said the truth about the transaction. All my words were decent, grammatically correct and in formal tone. No bad words were used. Lennar is not the best company to buy a house from. They are border line on breach of contract for the product that they give. Complaints are never satisfied.

They promise the world then when it comes to warranty work, they close warranty work tickets due to how it would effect them, use excuses to not match paint on new builds (they replaced a garage panel due to holes and now they say they will only paint the one panel and if I want it to match I have to do it myself. Say its due to normal weathering when I only been here 4 months) My firewall door to garage and the back porch door have large gaps that you can see outside and qhen the wind blows it opens the door. They say it meets builder standards when even my inspection listed it as an issue. I have had 3 electrical outlet problems. I could not test/reset one and they warranty customer service rep came out and plugged an electrical tester in it and said its working. The will not produce an invoice or send out licensed contractors to fix the issues. I would recommend never to buy Lennar or do not close until all work is completed. ... More

The team was great before the purchase of my home . After I moved in I have had multiple issues which are not addressed in a timely fashion . The quality of the work is poor and after being in my home for 4 months still have issues.

From our first engagement with Debra (where she talked to me like a moron who doesn't understand interest rates, despite the fact that I have a master's degree in economics) to our final walk through with Jon (where the construction manager tried to tell me that the cabinets were 'fine' even though one of the doors was the wrong size, a problem I had flagged three times for them), my experience with Lennar was sub-standard! The builder failed to communicate that they didn't have a water meter for our home, so we were stuck living with my parents for a month while we waited. After we moved in the oven and the refrigerated broke, which Lennar employees said was pretty standard. Since moving in ~2 months ago, the HOA has already raised rates while failing to plow the roads or communicate about when certain amenities will be open. It's actually astounding how frequently Lennar bungles what are straightforward parts of their job. ... More

The underwriter ignored us for two weeks. Therefor our loan was delayed by 3 weeks. Closing docs were approved on the day of closing! Horrible. Any issues were not handled right away. I was told the water bill for water for the grass that I do not want on the side of the home would be $30. It was $136! I was told HOA would take over the grass. They did not. HOA is non responsive. Took two weeks to get hold of anyone. Took over a month to set everything us. Horrible experience! I was ripped off on the price too. Same home sold for 17k less and also does not have grass on the side of the home! I do not want the grass. ... More

I have serious concern on price transparency and also the structure and material used . The garage does not have proper structure to park two cars. The stairs from the garage to the main floor is quite elongated. No washer and drawer are included in that package while this was known but when compared with other property seller near by there are better deal available. I don’t think I’m gonnna recommended Lennar to anyone.

Lennar provided the day for closing and there were a lot of items that were not completed/resolved prior to moving even though it was promised thet would be completed before closing. It’s difficult to get any responses from them to resolve outstanding issues and when they provide a date they don’t stick to it.

Once you've moved in, Lennar doesn't really care about addressing issues: 1.We have no internet service with no ETA provided despite our neighbors having service (we moved in 2 months ago). 2. I've been asked to check the box and mark requested warranty work as complete before it was finished, and it then gets ignored by the warranty team. 3. House was dirty in many areas upon move-in, and that was even with a further move-in thanks to Lennar messing up the closing date. This has been the worst decision of my life. Be careful.
