Loan approval staff

  • Kempy S.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • November 11, 2025
  • Land O' Lakes, FL

Very frustrating with the process and arduous data requirements. Although the staff was helpful they seem to be hindered by rules that are arbitrary and rigid. In the past 15 years we have purchased several properties and with a credit ratings above 850 we had to do the preponderance of work where in other loan companies we do very little of that.

Lennar responded:
Thank you Kempy, for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear that your Homebuying experience did not meet your expectations. We hope that moving forward, we can earn back your trust as a Homeowner. Sincerely, Lennar Corporate Customer Care

My lennar home buying experience

  • Matthew C.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • April 15, 2025
  • Brooksville, FL

I found it extremely frustrating that the walk thru time is dictated by lennar and not the buyer. I asked them to send me a calendar invite and was told " we don't do that". My experience with david weeklyvwas amazing and they worked with the buyer. Lennar has a very military like feel to the home buying experience. I wanted a different front door and was told no, I wanted different colored cabinets and was told no. " we at lennar don't do that" is what I was told. In my humble opinion Lennar is a turn and burn company in regards to their buyers. Lennar just cares about the sale. However my ...

House is nice but the home buying process was a nightmare

  • Ebony W.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • December 26, 2024
  • San Antonio, FL

The house itself is nice and a good value for the money. The process of buying the house from the mortgage lender all the way through the celebration and acceptance had MUCH to be desired. Issues riddled throughout the entire process. Warranty claims had to be reopened because they were incorrectly denied. Several issues were found during the celebration walk and none of which were addressed before the home acceptance. The only person that kept their word through the entire process was the sales agent, Dennis. Even when I told him of some of the issues that I was having he jumped right in to ...

Overall Experience

  • John J.

  • September 24, 2024
  • Land O' Lakes, FL

Closing on the house was a stressful situation in itself. I've had several issues inside and outside of my house to include quality of craftsmanship and quality of material. My door frame has been split since before moving in but I could not see due to the builder painting over the split in the frame until recently due to opening/closing the door on a regular basis and the paint wearing off. The drainage in the yard has been an ongoing since I moved in.

Lennar responded:
Thank you John, for sharing your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear about the stressful experience you had during the closing of your house and the issues you have encountered since moving in.

What a stressfull experience!

My bad experience was with Lennar Mortgage. With proof of employment, excellent credit and a generous down payment, they were not able to past the fact that my employer would not provide proof of remote employment. It was so frustrating that I paid cash for the house just not to have to deal with them. As far as the workmanship - overall, the house is fine but there are a list of issues where they just got lazy and did not check their own work.

  • David F.

If you are looking for a low-quality new home built by low skilled trades people Lennar is an option. Quality is below average, you are pushed to close regardless of the condition of the property.

Too much hidden information that you must frantically discover with no help. Attempts at contacting help always fail with no assistance. Most assistance comes from neighbors.

They concentrated too much on mass production and just getting to closing!

  • Anonymous
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • January 12, 2022
  • Wimauma, FL

They do not check houses, appliances, smart devices, etc. enough before closing. They think it is best to just wait for the buyer to complain after closing, and then they try to be “customer friendly” but they are usually too busy to take care of the many problems that should have been taken care of before closing, Most appliances our of the lower value.

Really wish they would've taken there time more. You can really tell the house was rushed with quality of workmanship. I would've liked to move into a new house and not a 90% complete house. The first month was nothing but people coming fixing holes, texturing walls, painting, stucco repair, washing machine flooding, two windows not opening, damaged cabinets, missing/damaged molding, etc. It was quite irritating having tradesman in our house fixing things on a house that wasn't finished. Unfortunately with my kids starting their new school 3 days after the scheduled closing we had no ...

Unfortunately day3 of moving in I had a leak that caused the spare room to have to have the carpet removed and the wall. It only has been a month and a half and I still have a dirty makeshift cover in my bedroom for the contractors which is ripped. I had to have multiple attempts for them to figure out the sewage issue. It wasn’t until I left a review that Bayonet the contractor they use actually did something. My next problem is my AC it’s only cooling on one side of the house. However, I had to please the insatiable underwriter when trying to purchase for then to not be able to use my ...

The start of the process was great, the sales team and mortgage group did an outstanding job (great communication, attentive to questions and concerns and just a pleasure to deal with). The walkthroughs were ok, a bit rushed and even items pointed out prior to the walkthrough weren’t all corrected (some weren’t corrected after the first walkthrough, and were rushed to correct just prior to closing), because of this several items were missed. The warranty group, although they are polite, they did not address the issue we were having and even closed the warranty ticket after an escalation ...
