Lennar Reviews in Orlando, FL

5 months after purchasing my home I am still waiting for construction damage repairs. I should have never closed with the construction damage. Now I feel like they are taking their time with repairs.

Rush everything, fix very little, Waiting 4months for issues to be fixed. Neighbors all having issues as well

any issue with the property takes too long to get fixed, there was a week with the elevator not working

Lennar makes a beautiful home. I just wish i could enjoy it without the constant stress of things going wrong. From multiple leaks and cheap paint, to defective AC causing heat and high humidity. Uneven flooring, broken cabinets, half completed yard, plumbing was FULL of garbage that overflowed and flooded the first floor. The initial rep basically brushes things off and we had to call repeatedly to get things fixed. He was replaced and the new rep is far better. Now they fix things a lot faster but i just don't understand why there are so many things that need fixing in a new home. Things that should have been done right the first time. They rush to build the homes on a deadline while using the cheapest materials possible. They replaced a closet door with one that had mold. Seriously? I had to wait even longer for a third try. My neighbors actually had their house built missing an entire closet in the bedroom. How do you forget to build a closet in a bedroom? The AC wiring was incorrectly ran so they had to redo it along the side of the house as a giant eyesore. It's ridiculous. ... More

This is my second time purchasing with Lennar and it seems that departments are not connected and do not talk to each other.The best part of this experience was working with Irma in Arden Park. She was amazing and made everything ok. She should be commended for providing exceptional service!

Everybody working for lennar don't care about the customer. Every issue I had, I had no assistance to minimum assistance. For example: 6 months after buying the property my bath tub is still missing caulking. I contacted lennar, etc nobody came to fix it. The pavement in front of the house has steps from paint, nobody came to pressure wash that, and lots more.

Still waiting for things to be fixed from walk through.

We and 50-60 of our neighbors were all promised beautiful finished green spaces and a tot lot when we were in the sales process. Lennar never finished these and apparently has no plan to. Other neighborhoods have beautiful amenities for the same HOA cost we do. Different builders who keep their promises. We will have to hire legal council and go through mitigation for breach of the sales agreement as we were all told the same things and our neighborhood is not up to par. Items take FOREVER to be fixed on my home. We have had 3-4 people who are supposed to fix things. Why so many? Can Lennar not keep employees? Still waiting over 7 months to get our roof fixed. It's disappointing. No one expected perfection, but the take the money and run without finishing what was committed to leaves a lasting impression of Lennar as a builder. I would not buy in a Lennar community again until all of the green spaces and amenities promised were already put in. It's sad. We love our home, but our community is disappointed with Lennar's commitment to what they promised. ... More

Home not completed after closing, slow or non responsive warranty claim. Poor contractors doing substandard workmanship. Promised amenities and recreational areas not completed as promised by sales rep. Materials are OK but workmanship is horrible.

The Lennar team lacked communication. Any time we had a question it seemed like no one made time to respond or help us out unless they needed something from us; like sign a document or process a payment. Everything felt rushed and they wouldn’t accommodate to simple request we had during the closing process. Very satisfied with the house I bought, just disappointed in some of the communication skills.

No brusures and feature list were given to customers. The salesman just texts the information to your cell phone. They does not provide sliding screen door as it should. They rush to conduct the final walkthrough when the construction is still under going without water. The doors can not closed without forced pushing. During online closing, the customers do not received the contact list of the utility companies, schools and emergency response. They did not disclose the 1% builder fee upfront.

Not a great experience for a 1st time home buyer. Bad communication, there was never an answer on time, still having issues and there not being addressed or taking care of, was not provided the important information.

The insulation around the house is terrible, we can hear everything from the outside. Construction process was very poorly inspected. Materials used are not the best quality as promise. I'm not confident that I bought a house that will last for a very long time.

Quite a few things went wrong since the closing. We did not receive the gate RFID stickers so we were not allowed into our community, even though the HOA pdfs we received 4 hours after the closing (around 10PM) stated we should've received gate stickers to access our home, so our move was delayed. We were also missing 1 garage remote (the package mentioned 2, we got 1), but around 2 months later we finally received the missing remote. There were 6 holes in the drywall: 2 in the staircase, and 4 in the ceiling. When installing ceiling fans, I found out some of the industrial screws holding the switches to the electrical box were completely stripped, and drywall screws were used right next to it. Drywall screws rust easily, not appropriate for electrical work, and it's not up to code. Some of the screws in the door latches upstairs are completely crooked and stripped, and 1 door in the master bathroom has visible damage and it was just painted over. There are gaps in the double doors that let in/out air and bugs. There are also gaps in the kitchen and bathroom cabinets and visible staples that need to be covered, painted over. These are lots of problems for a brand new ~$500k home. The salesperson, Irma Almodovar was very nice though. I think she was one of the few upsides from this whole transaction. ... More

Too expensive for what we actually got. Material quality is subpar and workmanship needs to be improved. Promised things would be fixed during our walk-through PRIOR to our move in and they were not. Home was not even cleaned before we moved in. Not worth it. Community is nice though, so there's that.

It's a shame that Lennar doesn't care about getting the home buyer a quality finished product. They used decent enough materials. We like the home designs and there are many thoughtful details put into the design and layout of the home. But due to poor construction management and workmanship on the finishing aspects, they've cost us as the home buyer, time, money, inconvenience, and frustration after the move in. Then they lie about fixing issues. Or send out an unqualified worker that does a crap repair. Or they send someone out that never takes any action. At that point you may as well get the issues resolved yourself without Lennar. They essentially blow you off till you get tired of trying to get them to do it right. It seems they are willing to trade good reputation for saving a few bucks doing a job correctly. So far I've not met anyone in the sub that doesn't have significant issues. ... More

I’ve had to submit claim after claim because the house was rushed to be completed for closing. What I disliked is my house wasn’t complete items were not finished. I only got one walk thru and that was the day of closing. I should have gotten two. The county inspector came the day of closing which is ok but the builders rushed to get it to pass but other things were not hooked up like the second washer and dryer vents. Trim work wasn’t completed. Bifold doors were not adjusted. Some of the doors did not latch on striker plate properly. I feel they all rushed and me as a homeowner should not have to take my own time to find imperfections and mistakes. Irrigation issues , outside paint issues on house, for the money I paid I was not satisfied. They did fix all of the issues the warranty person was very on point and got it taken care of. They rushed on the closing end of Aug (end of quarter point) to hit there numbers for the quarter but let’s rush on the homes we’re quality should come first. The building manager should do his job and make sure everything is done correctly to prevent higher claims . Don’t get me wrong things happen and I know the workers are contracted as they bid for the contract. Wish our experience was better. We love our home and our community. Hopefully lennar reads this but I’m sure could care less they have there money. ... More

The quality and attention to detail is terrible. It's only been 4 months and a lot of the caulk jobs are coming apart. There's paint drips in the trim and on the doors, the nails under the carpet weren't hammered down and poke through, and we still have a cabinet that's dented and cabinet doors that are bowed and cracked. Many things didn't get fixed because all the construction manager cared about was getting his bonus for our house closing. The warranty person is also impossible to get a hold of whenever something is wrong. Overall, wouldn't recommend or purchase through Lennar again.

THAT IS THE WRONG LOT NUMBER! There are Corona bottle tops im my shower drain. How did that happen? Builders drinking while building? Maybe that is the reason there are so many issues here. Garage foundation messed up. Come fix that before my house cracks in half

Overall, the house is beautiful! The followup on responding to issues and fixing those issues is really bad. My landscaping throughout the backyard has holes to where almost every piece of sod that was laid, is going to cause someone to sprain or break their ankle. We paid to have our hood in the kitchen vented to the outside. This was not completed and no one has come out to correct despite multiple attempts at contacting to find out when this work would be done. I would not recommend this company to anyone because they do not stand behind their work or items that are listed in a contract.

We are in our new Lennar house, and like it, but it was months late with us in a hotel. Minimal communication ( none from actual construction personnel). Moved in finally with no certificate of occupancy, many items incomplete that took weeks to complete. The company does some things beautifully, but then cheapens it. For example , the bathroom tiling is gorgeous, then they put the cheapest lights and fixtures possible, mentioning that you change them you void your warranty.

Went you recive your new key of your new home make 100 percent that everything are done because If you take the key and house it's not ready you lose. They don't want to do the repairs.

Poor comms, workmanship, concierge (Nicole) argumentative 11 properties purchased to date; this was the worst experience.

At first glance, the houses look great. However, lines are not straight, walls are crooked, door frames are cracking and the hardware is drilled and redrilled into place leaving loose screws and doors that won't stay shut. The electrical system is faulty, plug in a hair dryer, lose power in half the house (until you reset the breaker). Water pipes aren't buried, they're simply covered with mulch. I'm afraid to see what the future brings with the quality of this house. The process of buying the home should have been an indicator of how the quality of work would have been. Each step of the way, I had to jump through hoops for anything from "proving" why my company hired me to many other personal and intrusive questions that had no basis on my ability to pay for the home. The home was extremely dirty when we moved in and we were told, "That's just how it is when you move into a new house." I will say, that the warranty section has started fixing some issues, well see if it continues. ... More

This is the second house I bought from Lennar, the first wasn't too bad and of course some issues came after I moved in. For the second house things were not really good from the beginning, too many issues I found after I moved and for the price that we paid I was expecting a better quality on the construction but it's Lennar what el we can expect, look around some other options and make sure that you are going to get what your money is paying for. My advice is to try to avoid this builder if you can.
