Lennar Reviews in Orlando, FL

buyers pay close attention to details and don't close until u are truly satisfied . Corners cut in the workmanship. On closing day, 2 hours before our closing, and before we started our final walkthrough they had the audacity to show the home to potential buyers and it was very unprofessional, on closing day the floors were not cleaned and we weren't told not even who the utility company was until after a week we moved in and found out the water company was another utility company than we thought two-weeks after we moved in, we received garage openers a week after we moved in and we should have received them day of closing, ...

The home is really nice I like the fact that it’s included with the appliances customer service horrible if I had to do it again I would never buy a home from Lennar responsiveness really bad there’s still some issues that they haven’t resolved for me I would never Recommend any of my friends and family to buy through Lennar just based on their customer service

Where do I begin...This, by far, was one of the worst experiences I have ever been through, from the beginning to the present. I am disgusted with Lennar and how nobody is accountable for their mistakes. My home was not move in ready. 6 months later, I am still dealing w/ getting things fixed because the craftsmanship of the build was poor. Dealing with the customer service team has been the only bright spot in this experience. Bless all of the customer care personnel for they have to deal with the mistakes of the poor building. All I get from the construction manager for my neighborhood was, "I came on when your house was 7/8 the way done...," as I said, no accountability. I wanted to pull out of this deal from the beginning when my sales rep continuously made multiple mistakes on the same document that I had to fill out not one, not two but three times only to get her coming back to say I should have caught the mistakes. Really??? In any sales transaction, the buyer and seller has rights, so I thought. In this transaction, my rights as the buyer were stripped of me. I was told I can pull out of the deal but...I'd lose my deposit of $15,000. So, I was forced to go through this process anyways. As I've said, one of the worst experiences ever. I bought new construction to avoid these issues. Extremely unhappy customer. ... More

Took 6 months to get a refund ....overall a bad experience

Our experience with Lennar was unnecessarily stressful and filled with avoidable complications. Fortunately, my wife is a Realtor, with her father as her broker, and their efforts were critical in salvaging this deal. Without their intervention, it likely would have fallen apart due to Lennar’s lack of competence and misleading assurances. As buyers on a work visa, we didn’t meet Lennar’s criteria for an FHA loan, but we were happy to proceed with a conventional mortgage. Despite agreeing on this upfront, the underwriting process dragged on far longer than necessary, well past the “quick closing” date that Lennar kept emphasizing. Ultimately, we were denied the loan because my wife worked for her family business—a detail we had disclosed from the very beginning. It was unclear why this issue wasn’t flagged earlier, which could have saved us significant time and frustration. Communication throughout the process was abysmal. If we hadn’t been proactive in keeping everyone informed, no one would have known the status of the deal. To make matters worse, we received multiple emails from Lennar with congratulatory messages and instructions for next steps, even after our mortgage had been denied. Thanks to my wife’s father, who contacted Fannie Mae directly, we were able to resolve the mortgage issue and close on the property. We later learned that other buyers in the same community had faced similar denials, raising the question of how many deals could have been saved with better support and expertise. The problems continued on closing day. We were told we would have to complete a remote closing—without any input on this decision—and were charged for the “convenience.” The process itself was delayed as the ALTA statement had to be corrected not once but five times. Even after we signed the documents, we were left feeling uncertain whether the process was complete. After following up multiple times, we finally received the code to our front door and to no surprise we had been sent the incorrect code. It wasn’t until I left a negative review that Lennar provided a “closing pack,” which still lacked essential information. For instance, the included Ring doorbell couldn’t be activated because the necessary screwdriver wasn’t provided. This review highlights only a portion of the challenges we faced. To add to the stress, my wife was pregnant throughout this ordeal. Lennar’s sole redeeming factors were the efforts of their sales agent, Rob, and their mortgage advisor, Robin, who worked tirelessly on our behalf. Despite their help, this experience has left us unwilling to consider buying from Lennar again in the future. ... More

Love the area, but from the start had a bad experience with Lennar. First, we asked for a different sales consultant which they provide a different one but the first was still involved with paperwork. Second, tried to screw me out of an interest rate lock which was already accepted. Builders did a poor job with material and not following design as they had to rebuild my island on move in day with it being to far over. With warranty repairs, also poor job with the fix of my plumbing leak. They sent out 4-5 different people from the same company to fix a simple drywall repair. They closed me in a different phase which ended up making me wait 3-4 weeks to get WiFi and other 5-6 weeks to get a mailbox key. Just an overall lack of communication. Only positive is that the area is fantastic. ... More

Poor subcontractors choice Lack of supervision of work done by subcontractors Quality of materials poor Mass produced homes to maximize progits

If they don’t want a sloppy built home with a builder who doesn’t care because it’s all about who can build the most home in the shortest amount of time then stay away from lennar. The only time they care or reach out is when they get a bad review then you phone starts ringing & your email starts to go off. You have to live with a bad built & try to fix things yourself because of incompetent construction crew & a lennar team that wants to make sure there pay check is correct. All these mistakes will cost your company more in the end with a class action lawsuit. A company that knows better but won’t do better. ... More

I am real estate professional and sell over $30 million in real estate each year. The entire transaction has been terrible. Zero to very little communication, lack of communication between trades and parties, so many outstanding issues. Title was terrible and didn’t do half of the things they were supposed to do. I strive really hard to give my customers a great experience. And honestly this was the total opposite of great. This was definitely a very disappointing transaction and I will make sure to express my concerns to future clients looking to build new construction that may have any desire to work with Lennar. You guys have to do better. ... More

Having a hard time getting things fixed or people over to fix items that should have been done at closing. Wouldn’t recommend lennar and will learn from this company moving forward.

Our home buying experience wasn’t bad at first but the closer we got to closing the worse the experience was. The mortgage company told us they couldn’t lock our rate when I asked and then when our payment jumped up $400 in a matter of two months, they finally locked our rate. We were told we would close mid June so we scheduled our family vacation for the last week or May. Only to be told, that we’d close on 5/31/22. We checked the house before we left and it did not look ready for closing. We were correct. Lennar forced the closing with many items incomplete. Upon arriving back from vacation and trying to move in, we found the AC upstairs wasn’t working and the power in the master suite wasn’t either. We had drywall spray cover trim all throughout the house. We had exposed screws in every room. The back door wouldn’t lock and an upstairs window was damaged. We had various plumbing issues and tile issues. Our front entry was a disgrace. Words cannot describe the magnitude of issues the home had when we moved in. Yet, we were forced to close and were repeatedly told that if we did anything to stop the closing that we would lose the $24k we put down and would lose the home. They told us if that happened we could buy the house back for even more than we signed for months prior. We had no option but to close on a home that was not ready for people to live in. ... More

I just bought the home and the appliances needed to switched out abs a bathroom leak started. All of this is putting my property on pause for a month due to lack of builders attention and appliances are the worse!

Quality of work on the house wasn’t what we expected. There’s a lot of things that still need to be fixed and it’s been 2 since I closed. They need to be more attentive to there customers.

To be honest since day one I've been having bad experience with Lennars Home from the day I gave my deposit until my closing date plus things that currently have not been fixed when I was advised it will only take a week after my closing date. Just unacceptable.

I was forced to close the house on 11/30/21 just so that Lennar can report the sales before year-end closing. Closing was originally scheduled for online and later changed to notary. Signing was done at 11pm EST on 11/30 which was completely unreasonable. Sales/title company were unresponsive; lack of proper planning/communication (as everyone was overwork). The whole street is not even available on google map. All the houses around me are still under going construction. Rajmani is the only one that's responsive and be able to provide great service.

Absolutely awful home buying experience! There was zero communication about delays or the building process. The home was not ready for our walkthrough. Closing was moved multiple times with little to no notice. We attempted to contact customer “service” and NO ONE responded. Would not recommend Lennar as a builder. The entire experience left us disappointed and took the excitement out of buying our home.

The finance people don’t answer any calls or emails give me an hour heads up to close. Walk through was horrible. Walls weren’t straight, exterior paint doesn’t match, my washer wasn’t set up correctly and it flooded my laundry room the first time I used it. I have plenty more things that went wrong. Some were corrected but some where not. Lennar’s excuse was they are closing on 200 houses that month. How is that my problem? Every neighbor I talk to has / have complaints. Lennar needs to revisit quality control. Let’s just put it this way, would you like to buy a new car and would you like to have it fixed once a week for something different every time? ... More

During my first walk, before closing, we found some issues that were supposed to be corrected. After 5 calls and the "promise" that someone would take care, 5 months after, nobody showed up !!!

Good to sell horrible to respond to open issues and warranties

Very disappointed with the construction manager and their staff for failing to remove debris before the recent hurricane (Milton) hit the area. It forced me to leave my home for safety after concerns that concrete blocks would become projectiles. I asked repeatedly for this to occur and nothing was done. Even after they responded by telling me they would remove these items. I continued to message the construction manager directly and received no response. They simply didn’t care! I have photos and text messages saved for Lennar corporate, as they should investigate this further. The overall construction of my home was sloppy and when the house was given to me had multiple issues that I had to repeatedly ask to have fixed. Recently, my garage door random closed on my car! Another faulty issue. I’ve had multiple issues since buying this home. The driveway was even poured incorrect and cracked because of poorly installed irrigation piping below the concrete. The issues go on and on. I would never refer Lennar to anyone! ... More

Lennar has slight improvement in overall quality. However, it's still not meet customer's satisfaction. Responsiveness and coordination are still a big issues. Property orientation and closing arrangements are very confusing and not considering customer's need. Time response is extremely slow and sometimes not even replying customer's questions.

Home buying experience was as bad as it gets. Delays, LACK of commutation to no communication. Closing date got pushed multiple times. Sales Rep was terrible. Only one person who interacted with us during final inspection was good and as professional you would expect when you are making biggest purchase of your life. Due to the delays in closing, my interest rate went up, spend much longer in rented apartment, could not plan for the move. Had to rent extra storage for Furnitures we brought. Due to lack of communication, I had to constantly follow-up to get some sense when the home will finally be built. ... More

Always is somebody else in the company to blame. The seller agent offer incentives and sign them on a contract and then is a corporate problem we can not fulfill them. The lender blame the seller agent then his boss go sick then the lender is on vacation. Then the warranty agent blames the builder the builder blame the workers then nobody answer the phone then is something else. If Learn something about Lennar is they always excuse themselves with somebody else. But when you work for the same company. Me as a costumer don’t care in which department you work. Never again

Worst experience ever, will not buy house from Lanner FL any more.

Lennar is no longer the company that use to be. The quality of their new homes is truly sad to see. My issue can be summarized in one sentence: Brand new home with a huge leak on the roof! Took MONTHS for them to resolve the issues. All they care about is closing closing closing. Consider other options for a new home purchase.
