It seems like everything that needs to be fixed was something not covered. They do respond quickly but it’s nothing that they are responsible for

Don't like the fact that we don't have a pool and we are told that there is no time frame on when it will be completed. So we are forced to spend money on water parks and the lagoon so our kids to die from heat

Lack luster purchase!

  • Mathieu D.

  • Land O' Lakes, FL

Accountability was the key issue with our build. Arriving at our initial pre-closing inspection, our Construction Manager was not there. He was on vacation and had not advised of another CM to take his place. MOST of our cosmetic walk through items were ignored. Larger items like cabinet replacements, holes in the walls, filthy tile grout.... all avoided. The hinges on most of our interior doors use multiple types of hardware, utilizing drywall screws, galvanized and Zinc screws. The carpet installed in the house was the cheaper carpet initially, and luckily for us, our local realtor was ...

Too many issues for the price we paid

There are multiple hollow tiles in our home that move, that caused the ground to break, when we called out to get it fixed, they fixed the grout but not didn’t fill in mortar. Our stove/ microwave combo wasn’t installed correctly, it slammed down and broke the whole cabinetry. We were told it’s not safe to use anymore and now we are waiting for somebody to come out. It’s been two weeks now. Our Irrigation system has not worked ever and we’re being told that it’s not even covered by the warranty. No one seems to care that they sold us a faulty irrigation system. Not to mention all the other ...

Quality not as good as expected

The sales person was terrific and helped with the buying process. The closing was delayed by Lennar. The condition and cleanliness of my new home was poor. Empty bottles inside and out, paint job was awful. Paint everywhere with spots missed on the walls. There was paint on mirrors, on carpet, tile floors, cabinets, shower doors. No hot water, broken cabinets and fence behind the house is crooked and we lost footage. Lennar could have done better for the price we paid.

Found many issues for a new house

  • Melba M.

This is my second experience with Lennar, first house had good quality in almost everything; the new house had a lot of issues and now is really difficult to get them fixed. I only got help from one person (Mr Lee). Also the way that they does the closing is annoying, my realtor had to get paperwork through the title company after almost two months because they never gave me a copy.

Terrible experience the base boards and the foundation of the home wasn't sealed. Some of the trims in the house have spaces and are uneven. Some areas of the house didn't get painted on the outside. So many gaps in the foundation of the home that bugs get into. Just horrible overall experience. I wouldn't recommend lennar to anyone.

Quality of Lennar was ok. Disappointed to be honest

  • Daniel N.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • June 18, 2022
  • New Port Richey, FL

Lennar was a great builder back in the day. The process was lengthy but that was expected. The wall paint is awful. The trim needs work and no one fixed the issues, which is unacceptable. No one will fix the issue since me and my wife signed the dotted line. Lennar knew of the issues. Tiles are not correct, the floor squeaks and they say it was done correctly. The rug isn't professional. My feet sink in the carpet to where I feel the hard floor. The lights on the ceiling fell and this is a new build, nothing should be giving me issues. The trim doesn’t meet together…..another issue that was ...

Forced into closing before house was completed or move in ready, over 1 month in and still having basic items needing completed or fixed. Poor craftsmanship on several items. Floor not level, sinks not mounted to wall, held up with only caulk, cabinets and drawers not completed, exterior and interior paint not completed or patchy, terrible cement sealing in garage.

Lennar was great in the beginning answered all of our questions in a timely manner whether through emails or text! Our sales rep Ali was always available to answer any questions we had, and with us being new home buyers she walked us through every stage of the home building process and for that we are grateful. Megan our loan officer was also available and would answer any of our questions in a timely manner.However when it came down to the construction of our home that's when things changed. As our closing date approached we had concerns that our home would not be finished. It indeed was ...

  • Diana D.

  • Wimauma, FL

In my experience the sales effort and aggressive chase for wire transfers long before the house was anywhere near completion was unprofessional. A 1:00pm walk thru for a 4:00pm closing when the interior doors where still in the garage along with many poorly done items in and around the house. Closed the next day with many open items. Still today dozen or more items not done. Appointment for Dec.23, garage door not working correctly and very noisy still no show. Awakened by dripping water while in bed, leaking roof. Interior paint job is horrible. Many spots in paint and chips or missing grout ...

I would like to have gotten the same quality of workmanship that was in the model home. I'm sorry to say that didn't happen and even though they made many many promises to make things right, I know that it won't happen. They only make money by building new homes, not by fixing their mistakes. It makes me sad to know that the quality is not getting any better and they really don't care.

The house has too many issues and it is taking too long to resolve them. It was not worth it to pay so much many for a hoy with a very poor workmanship. It has been five months since the closing and stood Lennar hasn’t fixed all the many things wrong in the house.

There were several issues with our home upon move in which we were told would be taken care of. We had to continuously contact customer care and the construction manager to complete tasks that were not completed as promised. We had a ticket opened due to a cracked cabinet and back splash prior to closing date. The ticket was closed without being addressed or us being contacted. I had to continously reach out to customer care to figure out why the ticket was closed without the work being completed and they weren't able to tell me who closed the ticket or why. Our cabinets are still not fixed. ...

I purchased a new built and was promised during closing if there is any problem we will be out to fix it. A lot of below standards. 2 months in cabinets are falling off and apparently it’s a problem in the entire neighborhood along with drainage issues around the houses. No one wants to properly fix anything of or it takes months to get someone to come out to the house.

I was promised warranty work on my house and they even dropped off the materials. While the house next to me was getting constructed they got stucco on my house and they didn’t fix it. Greg the Knowologest was amazing. He got everything fixed for me and called me the next day. The new knowologest took over and is horrible. Before Greg let he said the GC would fix the paint and the GC never did. No the new knowologest said he not going to fix it. While buying the house the waiting until the last day to say they needed documents to close. They have 3 weeks and waited until the last day. The ...

During my initial walk through I found several issues to include a/c not working, toilet not working and several cosmetic issues prior to closing. The worst thing I found was someone had used and spilled something in my microwave and urine on my master bedroom toilet. I was in complete shock and disgusted and the construction manager, Mark, was made aware of these findings prior to move in. The day of closing the house seemed in order but the toilet was supposedly being replaced and when I mentioned to the construction manager that the a/c was still on the same number he said it was fine and ...

Our experience continues to be exhausting and frustrating. We had a 9 page punch list on the first walk through which was not addressed by the closing date. Being in the house for almost two months we are still waiting to get things corrected that should have never been issues if the builder used common sense. The issue costing us, is our AC is not working properly through out the house costing us high electrical bills. Light switches did not work, had to paint the entire house inside and out, seals on all windows had to be replaced, still waiting on hardware for the hurricane shutters. ...

This home buying experience has been a total nightmare. Everything from poor workmanship to electrical, plumbing, door issues, etc. We closed 2 months ago and still have multiple issues that have not been taken care of. In addition, we found out after we closed on our house that Lennar does not include screen doors on the patio doors! We purchase them from C&C window for $720.00. When they went to install them on the triple slider, they couldn't install because the door frame was installed incorrectly. C&C replaced the door jam and installed the screens but in the process ripped out a ...

My home buying experience was not pleasant. From the start representatives tried to force me to use Lennar financing and threatened that I could lose my deposit if I went with another lender. From there it got worse. My closings date was chosen by Lennar and it did seem like there was any coordination with the construction side. A week before closing I have my orientation and the electrical had not been tested so there were no lights or AC and the water had not been tested with we could do a proper walkthrough. The day before closing I spoke with a representative from the construction side ...
