Too many open items at and after closing. The Lennar team is addressing them but some items remain out of stock and are yet to be installed (bathroom light fixtures)

Lennar - They did not meet move in dates.

They did not meet move in dates. Walk thrus we’re a waste of time as nothing was completed. Now that we are here we sent in a list of repairs two weeks ago and have not heard from them. Not sure what the procedure is but two weeks and more is unacceptable. Joey in sales was very nice and did a great job. Waiting till all is done and we can start to enjoy our home.

Quick to close the sale, slow to finish the build.

  • Scott D.

Home wasn’t close to finished for the walk through and wasn’t finished for closing. Almost two months on and I am still running around trying to get them to complete projects. I gave them four stars for trustworthiness only because I believe it will get completed.

We purchased a fully upgraded home in a new Lennar development, and were pleased by the excellent result. High professionalism was shown by every employee we encountered. The pandemic years caused some delays in the build process, but Lennar persevered and still delivered.

The offer process was extremely stressful

  • Bonnie D.

The offer process was extremely stressful & drove the home prices above where they should be. They did not honor the people who were on the waitlist for several months, waiting for their homes.

Lennar - I am having a very bad experience with getting issues corrected

  • Halina V.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • January 20, 2022
  • Lakewood Ranch, FL

I am having a very bad experience with getting issues corrected on a home I closed on Nov. 30th and paid way over asking price. The electrical company is yet to show up to install electrical fixtures, havent showed up 2 times already. Cabinet doors not set correctly, installed the wrong closet doors, grout in tile has all damages and dirt imbedded in it. Closet shelves are all crooked. I am very disappointed with what I am dealing with!!

Lennar expected to close when the home wasn't finished

  • Grasshopper L.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • January 19, 2022
  • Lakewood Ranch, FL

I have tempered my expectations of the builder Lennar with all that has happened over the past several years with the pandemic, labor crunch and all of the other challenges facing individuals and companies. However, Lennar uses and iron clad contract where you follow their rules or they keep your 10% down and then sell your contracted home to someone else - to say they have you between a rock and hard place is an understatement. Long story short - my new home was not complete when I received the "time to close" notice. So we closed, I headed to our new home and what did I find - a home that ...

A long and winding road.

  • Francis D.

Would not recommend this builder. “Everything’s Included” is not entirely true. Also too much reliance on “technology” to handle everything - difficult to communicate face to face.

Everything was bad

  • Anonymous

  • January 18, 2022
  • Venice, FL

Every step of the way, we encountered issues. From the sales process, to the mortgage, to title listing the wrong fees on our CD, to having closing delayed two and a half months, no communication, they had the wrong carpet installed during our walkthrough, items listed to be fixed before closing were not, and now dealing with major issues post-closing and contractors show up whenever they want and just leave without finishing the work. Poor communication, lack of workmanship, no real customer service. They just want to move fast and get your money.

Lennar’s policy change just as we were purchasing

  • Michael M.

  • January 18, 2022

Original purchase policy for the condo’s had us on a waiting list as first available, as soon as our turn came up Lennar changes it’s policy to highest bidder. This caused a delay in our purchase along with a price increase.
