There were about 3 different people that sent title messages. We did find it a bit confusing.

Overall, we had a good experience with our purchase. The warranty group has been responsive and professional. Our sales agent, Matt, was excellent.

Our customer service relationship manager has been outstanding. Everyone is responsive to our needs. As soon as we report an issue, they rectify it immediately. This is our second Lennar Home and would do it again. We love our home and the community.

Very unsettling not getting towel bar in the bathrooms. Thermostat was not compatible with WiFi when we were told many times it was we had to dog it with the Ac company to get it resolved ( had to change thermostat)?Chris did help us reimbursed. The soil has many rocks and construction materials in the soil. No light in the pantry. No support with smart appliances, door and ring setups. The dinning room light outlet box was not center to the room we had to pay to have it corrected. All and all it was a frustrating experience.

Do yourself a favor and purchase elsewhere . . .

  • David R.
  • Verified Homebuyer

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

Lennar responded:
Good afternoon David,

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are sorry we have fallen short of your expectations. We understand how frustrating it can be to see your issues are not being resolved promptly. I will share your comments with upper management for their review.
Sincerely,
Lennar Corporate Customer Care

Worst home buying experience we've ever had. Terrible communication and constant misinformation

  • Ashley M.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • July 05, 2024
  • Punta Gorda, FL

We are not first time home buyers and we did our due diligence to make sure we were pursuing the best possible purchase available to us, but Lennar made the experience so horrible that we will never purchase another property through them again. Our understanding is that the laws in Florida allow for unethical, shady business practices by builders, where the sales and mortgage teams essentially lie and overpromise to the buyer to quickly lock in the sale and then once the truth of the details are established there is no option to cancel the contract and get the escrow funds back. The ...

Condo was ready on time.

  • Scott S.

Mortgage process was good. Condo was completed on time and process closing was simple. The only issue would be the fact that Lennar does not put any light fixtures in their condos.

  • Jody C.

From start to finish only took 20 days. It was a “it fell in our lap” moment. So we thought. Everyone was great, but not a lot of accountability when trying to iron out the kinks. Closing was the smoothest thing about the entire process. Susan has been great with getting corrections scheduled and completed. Her dedication and commitment is above par. She handled each task quickly and professionally. Extremely dissatisfied with the non functional sprinkler system and dead sod. Mainscape is blaming Lennar, Lennar is blaming previous sprinkler company. I really do not care. Not my ...

We quickly decided once we viewed the community. Like any project, there are small issues that occur. However, the responsiveness and speed at fixing issues have been more than impressive. We love the home, and even if we find an in warranty issue, we don’t have any anxiety. We know Lennar stands behind their product. This is the second time we’ve had the experience to buy new from Lennar. And we definitely will do it again if the opportunity comes along.

Poor Quality

  • Patricia F.

Arthur our real estate agent was very helpful and easy to work with. That is the only thing that went well. They rushed to close and get their money at the end of their fiscal year and the finishing work was of poor quality. I am still dealing with the punch list over 9 weeks later. I don't think you could have cheaper appliances. We have spent several hours fixing things ourselves because we were getting tired of waiting for someone to come and do it. This was supposed to be a new home which I would expect to be turn key with maybe a couple of small things but that wasn't the case. ...

Closing process was terrible

  • Eugenia F.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • April 25, 2024
  • Punta Gorda, FL

We encountered poor communication all the way around during the closing process. The closing coordinator scheduled a “walk-through”, and scheduled it for the wrong time/date. We arrived as told to, and there was no-one there. The follow up was absolutely horrid. The home was NOT ready to close. We encountered plumbing issues, walls were unfinished, blue tape was everywhere, broken tiles, master shower was not finished (no shower doors), the kitchen counter is still uneven, broken window screen, lanai door would not close/lock. I could go on and on with the issues. For a solid week after ...

Very poor Quality and Workmanship

  • David G.

First did not fine Arthur trust worthy. Chris the superintendent of the Veranda condos wasn’t to interested in overseeing the initial construction and stated a few times that things would be corrected during the 1 st. Year by filling out repair work orders. I have been in the construction industry and management during my career and have never seen such poor quality . I would sure like to speak with someone as I could offer valued services to Lennar.

Lennar responded:
Good afternoon David,

Thank you for taking the time to share your homebuying experience with us. I’m sorry we fell short in your expectations with the way it was handled. I understand it is not most convenient to have things repaired, but moving forward, if there are any remaining items to be addressed, please log in to your Account and submit a request using the warranty/service request form. You will also be able to follow up on the current status of your request using your Lennar Account.

This house was not ready for occupancy. Still dealing several issues. Lennar construction is the sloppiest workmanship we’ve ever encountered. We expected more for the money.

Sooo sad

  • Mitchell H.

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 responded:
Good afternoon Mitchell,

We appreciate you taking the time to send your review. We are truly sorry that the quality of your home did not meet your expectations, and that you had an unpleasant experience with customer service.

I have opened a Corporate Case on your behalf and have notified upper management for their follow-up in this matter.

This was the worst home buying experience I have ever had.

  • Louis M.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • April 20, 2024
  • Punta Gorda, FL

Compared to the model home, Lennar made several cost cutting changes, without alerting the buyer. They cut the quality of the front door, counter tops, closet in the dining area, and bathroom vanity lighting. In their rush to close before the end of the month, there were numerous repairs that needed to be made. It will take months before most of these are addressed. Their quality control is non existent, as their focus is on volume and profits. We bought this house because we liked the layout and view, and that is basically all we got.

Lennar responded:
We appreciate your review and are sorry to hear that the final product in your home fell short of your expectations. I have opened a Corporate Case with your comments and notified upper management to review and assist in addressing your complaint.

Too many defects in too many places.

  • George W.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • April 19, 2024
  • Punta Gorda, FL

Two weeks before closing, we walked through and discussed the defects that needed to be addressed. (We also missed several defects). We walked through on closing day and not one single thing on that list was fixed. As for warranty issues it seems that once we are told “that’s normal”, even though it is not normal. That’s it, no recourse.

Lennar responded:
We are sorry to hear about your experience throughout the walkthrough process and after closing on your new home. We understand you may have some issues that need resolving. To ensure the quickest resolution please submit the details using the warranty request form in your Lennar account.
