Built too fast; workmanship poor; many punch list items; takes too long to get fixes after closing due to no incentive to do anything faster than a snail’s pace.

We settled in July 2020. All our minor issues were addressed correctly the first time. This is the first time we were building a new home. We were moving from out of the state and had a family member monitor the process for us. They were impressed and decided to build with Lennar

Lennar was inflexible regarding any changes

  • James F.

This house presented a means to an end. We got a very discounted house with poor finishes. Because the price was low, we were able to tear out many low-quality aspects of the house and replace them with higher-grade materials.

You pay for what you get with Lennar. Eagle Home Mortgage is the worst company I have ever worked with.

A Great Home

  • Peter I.

  • Bradenton, FL

We recently moved into a new home during the height of Covid. We are in an area where there are several different home builders. Having window treatments and all appliances included was definitely a benefit. Our neighbors had to rent a refrigerator and go to the laundromat as the back log for new appliances was weeks. My only critique is the quality of the kitchen appliances. The oven, microwave, and refrigerator are adequate. However, the dishwasher was bottom barrel as cheap as they get. After only 4 months, we’ve already replaced the dishwasher. It would be nice if Lennar had an option ...

Overall a great sales experience. After we purchased, warranty issue after issue. The roof had 15 cracks from poor workmanship.....still no warranty resolution. Many neighbors shared the same experience with the roof.

Warranty responsiveness has been excellent. Vendors providing the service not so much. Continue to find minor construction related flaws and submit my request for service.

Horrible experience this time around

I don’t know where to begin with our frustrations. This is the 4th house we’ve built and 2nd with Lennar. We were a return customer bc the our 1st experience was great from the sales agent they the after purchase customer experience. This time was a huge fail. The biggest fail being the sales agent. And that’s a huge statement considering we had to have our master bath redone due to a water leak and mold issues within the first month. Our sales agent was not responsive to our texts/calls on many occasions. I even had to call the ft Myers office twice to get an answer about the build. We ...

The Villa Purchase Experience at Lennar’s Gran Paradiso

  • Richard A.

  • May 01, 2020
  • Venice, FL

From visiting the Sales Center to the closing, this home purchase experience was pleasant because of the well trained, knowledgeable staff. In actuality, Lennar homes do a good job of selling themselves. From the ample homesites to the room layouts, from the landscaping to the all inclusive features, the houses are quality for the cost. Check out the details. At closing, take time to inspect the accommodations inside and out. Who knows, you may find minor details that need repair. Not to worry. The repair team will there at an agreed upon time. This is the third Lennar home I’ve bought. My ...

Disappointed

Roof leaked after rainstorm. Many small repairs needed, e.g., painting, draws sticking, door locks not working, problems with pool fence, shelves in cupboards. Lennar Customer Care has been very good so far but don't know when leaking roof will be repaired. Cheap towel bars and hardware. This was a very expensive home and we are so disappointed in Lennar.

Only issue we have is a kitchen cabinet door & panel on dishwasher to be replaced. The order was written up January 7, 2020. I texted & emailed our field representative for Gran Paradiso in Florida a month ago on the status of it with no response.

Very good value

  • Thomas W.

A good value for the money. Our house is very open and on one floor. I wish you had a few more options like larger laundry room, room for storage, etc. We had a bad construction manager which made for a bad process and many unfinished items once we moved in. Lennar’s process was not built for as many items as we had. However, they eventually were all completed. They need to ensure they look at each home with a critical eye before allowing someone to move in. If not for this experience, my rating would have been much higher.
