Lennar Reviews in Orlando, FL

Despite some delay (in COVID times), my experience with Lennar was good.

Just know that you have the best sales rep, Yvette and the best warranty/inspector Nicole. Lennar don't give you guys grace. You two did an amazing job.

After buying a perfect home from Lennar in 2007 I was really disappointed in the quality of work on on this new home. Really poor workmanship on house and landscaping

My friend/real estate agent owned and sold many Lennar homes, so we had a first hand view into the process going into it. From start to finish communication was very poor and even worse within the Lennar team. Each individual we worked with was pretty good, but collectively it was a total mess. There are too many examples to give and I’ve already given Lennar so much of my time that I feel like I should be an employee. I’m convinced that our closing would not have happened when scheduled (Lennar cancelled 3 closings prior, last minute without warning - so yes we had already moved out of our house) if I hadn’t personally coordinated the team. Disappointing to say the least - I could write a book with probably 10 chapters with all the issues. As a business owner, husband to a pregnant wife, and dad of 4 kids 6 and under having to deal with all of this was really the last thing I needed. We’ve been in the house for almost 2 months now and there are still issues that haven’t been fixed (that should have been fixed by the 1st scheduled closing. ... More

Months in they pushed closing date and made no progress for more than 6weeks on walk through we had holes in wall no fridge door no molding closet doors still not hung, tile missing grout, walls and ceiling was bowed…36 problems noted. Now the second walk through was much netter but we still had issues with promise to return as well as covering expenses for an extended stay in hotel due to first walk through and we are now almost two months in and no word.

The closing was remotely, I was literally enforced to close before the issues in the inspection report were resolved. In addition to the confusion on the home warranty request dates with my other Lennar home, the request for the location of the public utility in in front of my house goes nowhere. I need someone really listen to my request, respond and resolve the issue!

We purchased from Lennar because of their next gen option in a home. Within 30 days of closing is when problems surfaced. We had sold our prior home and needed to move into the new home. Upon inspection of the home, it was possible for it to be finished. Communication with our sales person Ernest was nill to none. No returned calls. He sent text messages. I had to drop into the sales office to get to speck to someone. Within a week of closing we heard every excuse under the sun as to why construction was not complete. They even tried to move out our closing date, which would leave us with no place to go. It took speaking to a supervisor at Lennar lending to get the closing date we needed. Without her calls to others at Lennar, we would not have been able to move. We have been in our home over a month now and continue to find the quality of work, from drywall to floors, to be sloppy, shotty and needing repair. All of which we are doing ourselves, as Lennar is not. We did have two items that we reached out to Lennar about for repair, and thosr items have been repaired. ... More

All of the process was great and smooth.Thank you for the experience.

I originally signed for my home to start construction on March 2022 with a tentative date of completion for October 2022 but the home was not delivered until July 2023. The home itself was delivered up to par in terms of quality and everything so far has been working well. My only complaint again is that the home took way too long to complete, in fact, I visited my lot every week and for months and months, there was no progress made in its construction until about 4 or 5 months before July. When I expressed my concerns to my sales rep he said there were delays in materials and labor, but other homes that started construction way after mine were more advanced in the process than mine. So in other words, people who signed their contract months after me got their homes delivered faster than me by like 3 months approximately. Which seems unfair given that I signed my contract before they did. ... More

It was the worst experience ever. I went through a lot to get this home.

No recomiendo a Lennar

The town house construction started in April 2022 and was completed around May 2023, 7 months past the original October 2022 expectation date. The town house looks great and I love how it turned out! My issue was with Lennar Mortgage because it was not a smooth transition. There was too much back and forth and changes in the closing cost which almost had me pull out of the deal and my interest rate changed even though I paid to hold the interest rate (This was due to the build taking longer than expected). It was a horrible experience I would not wish on my worst enemy with Lennar Mortgage. It was super stressful in addition to my new baby and wife. ... More

For us the buying experience was easy and fast. They have a great staff also that its always willing to help. Thanks to Melissa, Jorge and Lissette because they really care about their customers and truly want to help.

El cierre se aplazó varias veces después de 3 aplazamientos debí cambiar de compañía (realizando las mismas funciones y el mismo cargo) además de volverme a aplazar me subieron el precio. El valor de las cuotas y el interés me lo dieron un día antes del cierre. CERO ATENCIÓN AL CLIENTE por parte del banco de LENNAR. La asesora (Graciela) nos atendió muy bien e hizo todo lo posible por ayudarnos además de la notaria cuando fuimos a firmar. Nuestro proceso duró más de 2 años, lo que hizo que tuviéramos que pagar más intereses, nos exigieron la mitad de la cuota inicial ya que nosotros pagaríamos el 20% del valor de la casa (dimos 50.000) en marzo de 2022 y nos dijeron que en caso de retirarnos del negocio perderíamos nuestro dinero por esta razón tuvimos que tolerar tanta falta de respeto. Esa fue mi experiencia ... More

Our new home consultant was fabulous. Our loan folks were helpful and on top of things. Our issues started with the walk through and the builder. We did our first walk through a week before our closing date to make sure that items were addressed prior to closing. With our final walk through, nothing was addressed from the the week prior. So when we closed and moved in, we had people coming in an out to do work. The lady who did our walk through and orientation disappeared on us after telling us she would in touch to help get our issues resolved. We finally had someone new assigned to help us, but not without us reaching out constantly for answers. Hopefully nothing else major comes up and the house stays intact for the next couple decades. ... More

Must find a way to stay on schedule for closing dates and provide better walk through before closing.

Terrible communication throughout the purchase process. Then they tried to delay our closing 1 day before it was scheduled. Now, 2 months after closing, they refuse to provide any warranty service and just close your tickets without any response. Just a terrible company, if you are looking for a new home, look elsewhere. Run, dont walk, away from Lennar.

The closing was not pleasant but they do make it affordable and the houses are beautiful. The builder does fix issues pretty quick once moved in. Some of the quality is pretty good and some could use some improvements.

First time buyer, I'd say I had a good experience. Not without issues, but everything was resolved quickly and professionally.

structure of house is good ,appliances is good ,cheap paint was used ,inferior materials like faucets, door nobs ,sliding door .

Be more informative with the client about overall information regarding the purchasing of a home.

Where to begin. Well, in many of the interior walls, the studs are not set at 16" on center, more like 22". The finished work leaves great deal to be desired. Much of the moldings are not set right and some just plain missing. The electrical work certainly wasn't up to code, since I had 3 bedrooms working off one light switch. I still have several screws that were not covered by whomever did drywall, Ans last major item was the leak under the sink. Now having said that, the service people who came to repair, complete or adjust items reported were outstanding. They were efficient, polite and knowledgeable. The one person who stands out for exceptional service and reliability was Anellie, I'm sure I spelled her name incorrectly. She stayed on top off all the requested items until completed. She gets 6 stars out of 5. All in all, as I keep finding little things, I find it best to just remedy them myself, but I would still recommend Lennar to someone who is handy and want a good first-time starter home. ... More

Lennar was very thorough and follow up has been good

Don't believe what the tell you is "included" in the purchase. Get ALL in wrting down to the screws and nails

I was promised so much more than I ended up getting. It took a year past the date I signed to get my place. It is called a luxury community, but it is far from that the grass is dead. The trees are dead. they promised a pool by summer. It has also got pushed out for another year. Other communities around us have surpassed our build up even with later start dates. They lack attention to detail in the house and on the exterior of the house. The outlets are crooked. The baseboards are crooked. The windows have caulking gunk built up that you have to remove yourself with a sharp tool grout is missing from the tile they placed. I pay a high HOA fee, and the exterior looks like hell, and there are literally no amenities.There is a huge fly and spider problem. during the building process they changed my floors without giving me any updates. I had to point them out myself, and they did nothing about it. The cabinets have chips. The windows are scratched and these are things they will not come fix because you can’t necessarily take a photo of them from 10 feet away. ... More
