Lennar Reviews in Dover, DE

My experience was great. It started with Nickole the agent for Lennar then Scott, my mortgage broker. Everyone I dealt with within the Lennar family were very knowledgeable, experienced and the customer service was what I needed and appreciated at the time of my purchase. Thank you everyone. Anyone who wants to purchase a home I believe you will be happy and if you’re not satisfied, they will make it right.

Nickole was very good to me and my husband. She was not pushy about buying the house. She showed us like 6 units before we made our decision. Excellent sales person

Everyone we came in contact with at Lennar we can't say enough good things about. Nicole at the sales office was so patient with us in showing us as many homes until we decide on the one we picked. Which was the Beacon II. We also meet Ed & Shawn who answered any of our questions or concerns we had. We would highly recommend anyone looking for a home to come to Noble's Pond & purchase a Lennar home

Excellent team of Lennar wonderful departments associated with them from beginning to end I received the upmost respect and help from them never have I dealt with such a great set of people who helped to make my dream become a reality. Bill Klotz so wonderful he made me feel like family the best, in the nice & helpful people over @ Auburn Meadows wonderful. Thanks to all

The homes are beautiful with a lot of thoughtfulness in the design process. The homes I toured and then bought had all of the amenities I was looking for without having to customize as it was already there!!

Lennar made my home buying experience with possibilities, exciting. Ms. Nikole from the sales team kept in direct contact with me throughout the whole process. The individual attention from sales plus the loan officers made the stress of buying a property attainable and attractive.

I'm happy with the purchase of an inventory home, vs a custom build. I find that Lennar is focused on Tech Homes. I think for 55+ people some may not be ready for the 21st Century home. I like the additives of Ring equipment which I feel is about $1000 worth of products which saved me from getting a new system. The response to new build defects was rapid and man-made defects are expected in a new build.

Overall good experience. Valerie McCarney was excellent and responded quickly to any questions. Not happy with propane heating costs and would prefer natural gas. Some carpentry and painting was sloppy but is scheduled to be corrected.

Our new Lennar home experience was excellent. We are happy to have found a great community to retire in Delaware.

The Home we purchased is a Lovely Home. There are a few problems we encountered, like there is no separate switch to for the Porch Light and The Outside Light over the Garage are on the same switch, and there is not switch in the garage for the outside light over the garage. I replaced the Light outside over the garage with our Ring Camera Spot Light, and our Porch Light has to stay on 24 hours in order for our Ring Camera to work. I asked and they are supposed to check and see if it was in the plans for a separate switch to be installed. The Front Door is not measuring 3'0 or 36" wide because my Screen Door is not mounting correctly. I Love my Home and Wish they would fix these minor problems. ... More

Make sure when you do your walk thru you take your time and person takes notes. Take photos. 75% of items were not corrected and now we're living thru contractors in and out of the house. Makes it difficult when you're trying to settle in.

My issue is my propane bill, it’s highly expensive. If I knew my propane bill was going to be over $500 dollars a month I WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED. The builder who is the owner of the propane company is charging the seniors too much money. There’s no way I should be paying over $500 monthly especially when my thermostat is at 68 degrees which is very cold and further more I’m on a fixed income (I cannot pay my bill). Also, there’s a fowl smell every night which is unbearable and I was not informed that there’s a chicken coop in the back. I’m totally unhappy with my purchase.

I would recommend Lennar's Noble's Pond as the pricing is very affordable for 55+ buyers and the community is just great to live in.

Lennar's Sales person was very helpful and pleasant to work with. We had a nice experience and are enjoying our new home and neighborhood.

We sent a list of items to be addressed. The person who was supposed to address the issues did not. Another person in your employ addressed them at a much later date. So the experience worked out well; however, we waited longer than necessary. The person picking up the ball, is the one deserving all the stars. You should allow names to be used. If we do something good or bad, we should own it. I always own what I say or do. It's called accountability. It makes us better.

Too many items were down graded from homes previously built.

Lennar has been very good in responding to our concerns and for the most part, issues have been resolved. It would have been nice to have towel holders an TP holders installed (at very low cost to Lennar) and the grass, other than the sod in the front yard is terrible, just like straw!. Also, a better effort should be made to have the homes built be much more similar to the models shown.

Regarding value for price paid, I have some reservations. For example, this $405,000+ house didn’t come with toilet paper holders! They had to be installed after I moved in! The bigger issue for me is the almost complete lack of follow up and prompt fixing of structural and other issues found after I moved in. Two emails, regarding structural and other issues that need to be addressed, sent more than two weeks ago, to the Customer Care Representative, have not even been acknowledged leave alone responded to. I would have given zero stars to Responsiveness to issues if that option was available. I hope a live person will read this and get back to me soon. ... More

Since Lennar is a production builder and gets their building materials all put together most of the walls are not plum. Craftsmanship of the trim pieces (mop board, quarter round, and door trims) are below average because they use a lot of silicon to hide the imperfections. A positive note is that the term "Everything included" is nice and is something that other builders don't include.

Tried very hard to make things right even though house had numerous problems at closing

Just because it is a new build, get an outside inspection done.

We were shown 3 models. We chose one and our hearts were set. Right before signing the agreement to buy we realized the house we fell in love with, was not what we were getting. The elevation for the house we were being sold didn't come, with the porch the model had. Cost savings changes eliminated basement windows the model had. However, the low interest rate mortgage made the house affordable and we moved forward. I had inspections throughout the build, but Lennardid not allow roof inspections. Right before closing I couldn't reach anyone, I never even got a call from the attorney. The closing was crazy only the notary showed up with stacks of documents for signature. No one to answer questions, we had to request a call from the Director of sales. He did call but the notary walked out, as per the title company. The closing was rescheduled and again because the attorney insisted on communicating via text the wire transfer was delayed. I was advised I may have to get my keys from a drop box, I was dumb founded. A few weeks after moving in we had to have the heating rewired, the thermostat was wired incorrectly. Some roof shingles have been moved by the wind. The basement bathroom is next to an unfinished closet, which exposes the tub and a gapping hole to access the trap, it should at least be covered. The door stoppers on one of the doors has punched through the hollow door. Two of the showers have chips already. The heating system installed is a new type of system. The plumbers that have seen it admit they haven't seen this type of system. The Director of sales and the employee who did the walk throughs were the most helpful representatives of Lennar I dealt with. We are happy with the house and pray we don't encounter any major issues. ... More

I felt very pushed by the Lennar representatives to make a decision on the spot, which wasn't the best experience. The quality overall is not as good as previous new builds I've owned and the response to issues has been slow. Other issues with the neighborhood in general (mail not being delivered) have made this a frustrating experience.

1-extremely disappointed in the lawn. Sod looks like it was laid by a child because there are gaps galore! The seed that was laid on the sides and back almost refuse to grow because it was not watered properly or regularly prior to us moving in. There are brown areas all over. The dirt used was the wrong dirt and wasn't graded because there are so many rocks and stones like construction dirt was used. I had to throw down more seed, i water twice faily, and am only getting patches of grass. Whoever the lawn company is, why don't they come on the same day of the week? We were told it would be every Friday but they've come on Wednesdays and Thursdays. 2-why is Lennar in charge of the HOA? BC Communities has all the say not the residents. It shouldn't matter how many people are in the community. At least one of us should be allowed on the board. 3-workmanship on our house SUCKS. We see where they've screwed up but tried to hide the imperfection with paint, caulk, or putty. There are even faults they didn'rt fix! 4-we were told there was an old cemetary by the tree line across the new road from us, but that was a lie because it's right next to our house! 5-why is there no activites director? WE NEED ONE! 6-the house is not senior friendly. The windows are too high and are single hung indtead of double. There are no bars in the shower and we weren"t given the option. The shower isn't easy to get in and out of because yhe bottom piece is too high. 7-because our previous house sold in 2 days and the buyers wanted to move within 30 days we were in a bind. We wanted to buy in Bridgeville but would have had to wait several months for the house to be built so we kept looking and voila! You had one already built and we could move in pretty quickly. Extremely disappointedwith this community. I think i might be missing some things, but i'll continue my list.' ... More
