My salesperson was very friendly and responsive. The communication as an out of state buyer was sufficient, but once she handed us off to the warranty people it’s all been downhill. Poor responsiveness, people leaving and now I don’t know who my contacts are. Outstanding work that should have been done prior to closing. A lackluster pre closing walk through, no explanation of systems. The grass laid down was dead when I closed but no one cares. The quality of workmanship and attention detail is severely underwhelming and not at all the condition I would expect a new home to be in. Would have ...

While the buying experience is great Lennar does not offer the flexibility to make minor changes such as granite countertops, stainless steel appliances. Also, master bathroom looks really cheap. Laundry room and appliances i.e., washing machine with auger. Really. I have no problem with customer service. For I pay either these things come standard or Lennar offer to customer if they want them.

lack of guidance and direction, massive confusion and gaps in follow-up, zero accountability. Very sloppy workmanship and No attention to details.

The overall workmanship was poor, final product was rushed with many gaps from broken cabinets, sloppy paint job. Insurance premium through HIPPO (subsidiary of Lennar) was not paid forcing lapse in homeowner's policy and issuance of multiple dunning notices.

Post closing issues can be hard to address, set up appointments for, or have work orders finished correctly. Have to keep calling and reminding them about fixes.

Great Location

  • Marc J.

  • April 19, 2022
  • New Port Richey, FL

It’s overall great location for places to eat and grocery stores are like 5 minutes away. The houses comes with lots of amenities and look very nice in our opinion. One thing, is appliances are being stolen from the homes before you move in and right after they are being delivered. It’s strange but it keeps happening until you close on your home and you’re moved in. When you’re driving through the neighborhood or walking around, everyone seems really nice. Seeing lots of kids around, which is good because we have a 13 year old. Great thing is, the middle school and high school, are within ...

Builder rushes to get houses completed. Many items were missed in the house and still waiting 2 months for items to get replaced and/or installed. Construction workers are slobs & don't care if they dump garbage everywhere or block your home.

The material is very cheap, the work was done quickly and is falling apart. They take so long to fix the stuff they have messed up on. I would pay abit more next time and get a better builder.

Lennar - First time homebuyer here on a new construction home.

  • Anonymous

  • Sun City Center, FL

First time homebuyer here on a new construction home. We love the floor plan of the Richmond model. Great community and neighbors. Fit and finish of the home is poor. Missing trim, paint splatters everywhere and just an overall cheap feel. Although the home is about 90% perfect, it’s hard not to notice the 10%. Lennar doesn’t offer any customizations which would’ve been easier to do/install during construction. Lennar mortgage and lennar title are terrible with communication. With overinflated house prices in 2022 it’s hard to justify value.

Lennar responded:
Hello, and thank you for your review. We are thrilled to hear you are loving your home, community, and neighbors. We also want to apologize for the poor quality, missing items, and general lack of attention and follow-up.

It was a great experience to see your home being built from ground up. Our new home consultant Stephanie was great and kept us up to date. Closing day was a little hard because they had so many homes to close on the same day and were behind, house was not 100% completed but they did come and finish it within the week. Small things like mirrors, shelves and screens.

As far as my experience it’s been ok however, I feel like Lennar needs major improvement on their customer service/interaction with their customers, we need to provide better quality materials and do a better job on the cleanliness of a brand new home once completed. I wasn’t happy with my garage door / motor, as they promised it would be a good quality garage door/opener and I received the lowest possible garage door / motor. Lennar needs to give the customer more options and selections on picking colors and materials.

Working with the sales agent was a pleasant experience. However, Lennar was rushing me to close on a home that wasn’t ready for move in and 2 months later I’m still chasing after people to fix things that should’ve been done prior to closing.

Construction manager was very responsive to our questions, post closing. Suggestion: at closing, all incomplete work documented and signed by Lennar rep. And buyers as done by GL homes. This would alleviate buyer anxiety.

Bad Communication and unkept Promises

  • Anonymous

There is a lot I could unpack here. 5 month delays, miscommunication, lack of communication, and being ignored. From sales to financing this entire team seems like no one has the right information...and those that do fail to communicate. The house itself is fine...but working with Lennar people is an exercise in frustration. They *say* they will answer your texts and return calls. They dont. They say welcome to the Lennar Family. Well this is a family that only sees each other on occasion and rarely speaks...
