Lennar Reviews in Punta Gorda, FL

My buying experience was horrible, from the moment I signed the contract and paid my down payment. My sales person did nothing to earn his fee. No one even met me at my home to hand me my keys. I was told they were in a drawer. When I arrived, the house was filthy; there was even a dishwasher in the great room. I have over 40 issues needing warranty work. The workmanship was deplorable. I am shocked that Lennar would let such a product carry its name. The mortgage company was also sub par. I couldn't get people to respond to me, and it took several attempts to get every issue resolved. The ONLY part of my buying experience that was of quality was the closing. My notary was excellent, and the closing was smooth (although, the title company had the incorrect closing date on several documents). Since my purchase, my warranty rep, Susan B., has been EXCELLENT. She is responsive, dependable, and takes pride in her work. ... More

If you purchase in Babcock National from Lennar, DO NOT expect to move in within the first 60 days of closing - your residence will not be inhabitable! The worst part of the experience is the attitude of the construction manager and failure to communicate on resolution. INSIST ON THE WARRANTY DEPARTMENT TO BE AT YOUR WALKTHROUGH WITH AN IPAD TAKI G PHOTOGRAPHS OF ALL THE ISSUES. TEST EVERY APPLIANCE THOROUGHLY DURING YOUR CLOSING.

Communication is terrible! Condo was not completed on time. Multiple issues. Still waiting on kitchen cabinet hardware almost 2 months after close. Shower door is not what was shown to us in the model. It was installed one month after closing and it was a a cheap replacement. That issue is still on going. We were told we would receive a $2600 rebate for these issues and it still is not resolved i.e. check issued.

This was a terrible experience.

This is my third Lennar home and by far the worst experience I have had purchasing a new home. I closed six weeks ago and there are a few items that aren't even complete yet, and many repairs that need to be made, I flew into town for my walk through, and noone showed up until I flagged down one of the sales guys. Very disappointed.

I am trying to give Lennar a good rating but every time I think the warranty service is improving and ready to do their job I am let down. Contractors that are sent to fix a problem do not show up or do half the job. I am lied by the different suppliers all the time. I will give you one of many examples. Defective glass sliding doors. I put in a service request and several weeks later your provider partner calls and makes an appointment for July the thirteenth to replace the doors. The call again a few days later and ask me to take pictures of the defective glass. I spend over an hour taking pictures that were acceptable to the rep. The thirteenth comes and goes. Nobody showed up and nobody called. I give them the benefit of the doubt and after their apologies for the mix up, we reschedule the installation for today July 20th. I called early morning to reconfirm the instruction. I am told the technician is scheduled A photographer not a technician shows up to take pictures of the same door that I had already done and sent in. No technician, no doors,no installation. He tells me to call his Boss. I do but she now decides to communicate via text only. She tells me that it will take 8 to 10 weeks to get the doors from the manufacturer, yet until this morning I was led to believe that the doors would be installed. Of the several conversations I had with the supplier not once did they tell me that the doors would be installed in 8 or 10 weeks. Like this one incident, there are many more. If you care to find out more and how badly your company is doing, please feel free to call me. ... More

Poor workman ship Had to request VP sales to assist me to get things fixed

BEWARE OF WHAT YOU PURCHASE FROM LENNAR DURING THESE TIMES. QUALITY OF MATERIALS, WORKMANSHIP AND SENIOR MANAGMENTS OVERSIGHT OF NEW CONSTRUCTION AT PRESENT IS NON EXISTENT! ONLY CONCERN BY MANAGMENT IS DRIVING SALES, NOT CUSTOMER SATISFACTION!

This truly hasn’t been a wonderful experience. Thank goodness we got a home inspection. We highly recommend that anyone interest in buying a Lennar home do the same. Thank goodness for Susan, she has been a very helpful through this ordeal.

Drywall work is some of the worst I’ve seen. I will have to do the repairs myself. The repairs Lennar had done are crap at best. As bad as the drywall is the painting and caulking is way worse. It took two months to get our mailbox keys. My wife called to get answers and was yelled at. This box isn’t big enough for all our complaints.

Lennar builds so cheap, finishing work absolutely horrible, rush to close to make there quarter. Not even the faucets are strait... on the other side, they have some good people that respond and work hard with their limited resources. Fantastic property, amenities and neighbors!

Ha just talk to your vp

Don't believe any closing dates or promises made that are not in writing. I understand the supply chain and labor issues but this sale, closing and quality of product received was the worst home buying experience that I've ever had and I've had more than a few.

The sales person, Joseph, was so uninformed, deceptive and unreliable, I will never buy another Lennar property

We closed in march and still don't have punch list completed. We are in process of having a GC provide a quote and seek legal counsel to proceed.

Lennar was only interested in making the quarterly numbers NOT the satisfaction of the buyer. We had a terrible closing experience. We did not get thngs completed in a timely fashion and were pushed the entire time to "just close". I will NOT ever buy another home from Lennar!!!

I was unable to close on the home I originally had built due to the home not being completed on time and several building issues including but not limited to water damage in every room and a large crack in the foundation that extended across the garage floor. I had to closed on a different home which I am now finding issues with.

Terrible process. Rushed us into closing and had to postpone the closing 4 times because the house was not ready each time! Matter of fact.. even after postponing twice, we had our inspection done by an independent inspector and had over 140 items to be fixed/repaired or to be completed at that point! There were even trash and stuff everywhere in the house for the inspection! The layout of the house and the community plan attracted us there, but the construction experience was the worst we had in 40 years during which we built 3 other houses. They subcontract everything at cheap rate and have these guys doing so many houses in a row that it is done fast and it shows! Painters not covering dark cabinets to paint touch up with spray gun (white paint) and leave cabinets full of paint… just no pride in delivering a quality product! I mean.. we did pay over $960k for that house and knew it was a national builder… but we were expecting a little but more professionalism to be honest. Will not hire Lennar again to built a future house. ... More

Lennar needs to do what they agreed to do. Closed based on their word that things would be fixed right away. I bet two months post close and nothing is fixed

while we like the floorplan, the location of the development, and the view we have from our back lanai, the poor quality of construction, Lennar's slow response to issues and general poor attitude toward customers leaves a great deal to be desired. We cant in good conscious recommend Lennar, and sadly would suggest those looking, look elsewhere

During my final walk- through inspection, I noted several items that needed taken care of and informed the Lennar builder representative of these requests (kitchen cabinets missing shelves, sloppy sheetrock mud and exterior paint already starting to peeling to name a few.) After being assured that these items would be corrected, I proceeded to sign my closing documents. After 7 weeks of moving into my new home, and several phone calls and messages being sent to the builder's office requesting service, I am still waiting for these items to be taken care of. In addition to this, I had the supply line under my sink break loose during the night flooding most of my home. Lennar did respond to this immediately and arranged for the plumbing company and a water removal/ remediation company to come that day. I'm hoping that Lennar will step up and take care of the damages that I incurred quicker than my recent experience with them has been. ... More

The cabinet is very low quality compare to what the rep told me i will received

Workman ship is lousy. Responsiveness is awful. Forces closings before home is complete

Finnished home is nothing like the model homes, from staged lamps in living rooms with cords hidden under rugs were no outlets are provided, to trim tile in showers that isn’t put in actual homes. Overall quality is terrible, Door openings uneven, lights not centered, outlets in wrong places, internet wiring frayed in walls/connectors loose, appliances not correctly hooked up, light switches not working, yard with construction debris all over, landscaping a mess!

Poor build quality, lack of communication and Lennar attempted to bait and switch a few items that where in the sample model.
