Lennar Reviews in Orlando, FL

My experience with purchasing a home from Lennar was mixed, marked by both disappointment and satisfaction across two attempts. Initially, our enthusiasm was dampened when, due to an oversight in lot size calculations, we learned that our chosen design could not be constructed on our selected lot. Despite this setback, we decided to give Lennar another chance, drawn by their desirable locations. The second attempt was notably smoother, with the construction process concluding on schedule. However, the closing process was cumbersome, requiring constant vigilance on my part to ensure deadlines were met and essential inspections and walk-throughs were arranged. This experience underscored that prospective buyers should not expect a guided, hands-on approach from Lennar throughout the buying process. Post-move-in, several craftsmanship issues became apparent. These ranged from minor annoyances, like upside-down electrical outlets and inconsistent paint coverage, to more significant concerns. Notably, the conduit for internet cabling was obstructed, necessitating an unsightly workaround by our internet provider, and initial plumbing issues were discovered, including clogged shower drains and reduced water pressure on the second floor. Investigations revealed construction debris within the plumbing, suggesting a careless attitude toward construction best practices and environmental considerations. Additionally, the response from the plumbing contractor to our concerns was dismissively humorous, rather than professional or constructive. These experiences indicate a prioritization of speed over quality and attention to detail in Lennar's construction process. While I recognize the efficiency of their operations and the appeal of their locations, I advise potential buyers, particularly those without prior homebuying experience or a knowledgeable advisor, to proceed with caution. Engaging an independent inspector during the buying process could mitigate some risks and ensure a more satisfactory outcome. In conclusion, while Lennar successfully delivers on its promises of prime locations and timely construction, the post-purchase experience may fall short for those expecting thoroughness and quality craftsmanship. My recommendation is for seasoned homebuyers or those with expert guidance to navigate the purchase process with Lennar more effectively. ... More

Nice house with great materials, however we missed in the living room one eletric spot instead of a sprinkle.

Leah was our sales rep and She was absolutely amazing! She always updated us with any new information and always answered any questions we had throughout the purchasing process. One of the negative things was that the closing kept getting delayed, but I understand its something that happens a lot in new construction and it’s something Leah warned us about. I would say that the main thing that I’m disappointed with is just getting items fixed in a timely manner with the builders warranty. Still waiting on several items that I submitted weeks ago. Overall it was a good purchasing experience but I will recommend they have a better system scheduling warranty issues after closing. ... More

Good value compared to what else is out there. Surprisingly poor workmanship in certain areas. Some issues are taking a long time to resolve. Closing could have been better with funds owed due with wire transfer difference

Great Experience of purchase !

Excelent Time to finish de Unit.

Cheaped out on paint quality and carpet quality. Besides that, excellent job.

Overall good experience! Nice community.

Absolutely love the house, great layout, perfect size, great location! Some workmanship issues that are taking a significant amount of time to resolve. Seems like once closing is done, Lennar writes you off...takes an act of God to get anything repaired! I closed on 12/23 and STILL have items that aren’t fixed. Customer service is not responsive! To say the least.

Whilst we were generally happy with our purchase we found the process to have repairs and snagging dealt with somewhat difficult and the issues raised at closing were not dealt with for several months.

As if this moment in time , house is six months old, Lennar has been very responsive to our concerns. I have owned Lennar homes in the past, as long as you hire a home inspector at pre drywall and for the final walkthrough, Lennar has been cooperative in making any necessary repairs.

I believe all patios should have the screen offered/given unless refused by Tenants

Lennar is a big company and will push you around if you let them. Don’t let them. Workmanship is ok, it’s goibg to depend on the contractors they hire. Just make sure you keep track of things and don’t let them get away with poor workmanship. Full disclosure: Our house was prebuilt so we didn’t get that chance and your mileage may vary.

House is made of goof products but Lennar tends to rush some of the construction in which now warranty has to get involved and that is a never winning battle. Overall the house is good, the grading is bad, but we are happy overall.

As a first time buyer my experience was really good.

Need to finish some of the work.

It’s really hard to communicate with the office staff, once closing came they didn’t care about multiple issues included those mentioned regarding the house. Response times are extremely high, with people having to follow up multiple times to get a response.

Good experiences,but purchase prices are more higher

Builders need workers that care about the work they do.

Customer care is good, they solve the issues but not as fast as it must be, the workmanship is terrible and the materials are scarce.

reliable constructions, times respected ok

Great price for the all inclusive concept.

very bad costumer service and warranty

Great quality and floor plan. Overall, we are very happy with our purchase, however, the buying and closing processes were not easy. It took several months to resolve issues that were identified at the pre-closing walk-through.

Lennar is very responsive prior to closing, after closing I have discovered many issues with the house and the response has been slow. The quality and workmanship is not the best and the HOA management company, employed and controlled by Lennar, is very picky and intrusive.
