Lennar Reviews in Atlanta, GA

shortcuts to avoid cost, lack of communication, frustration galore

During our building process, the sales team repeatedly gave us misinformation and took long * 2 answer questions. Since we have moved into our house the warranty department is slow to respond and lets things linger 4 a long time. After our first warranty appointment and claim, they sent two people out to work on some of the issues, but the rest is still left undone.

We feel that Lennar homes are built quickly but often times speed gives up good quality.

Quality of finishes, subcontractors, and oversight is lacking

Considering what I paid for the property the workmanship on the house is poorly done! The materials used (i.e cabinets are cookie cutter, flooring is cheap) are of the lowest quality of builders grade material! Thus totally unexceptionable!!

House has many defects, they keep coming. Hopefully they won’t be more sticking out!!!

There is no standard pricing on townhomes here as the prices are costlier for first time buyers versus investment home. Costlier prices for normal home than the upgraded homes. So, there is no standard trusted builder pricing as the prices going along the tide. Faster completion of homes, but no proper nailing & who knows what's gone inside the drywall !

Sales Associate was very knowledgeable, very helpful, and I could rely on her for any need related to the purchase and follow-up for my new Lennar home.

I bought the house before construction. After paid deposit, it turned out the house was very not as good as expectation. The quality is bad and warranty team is bad.

Not at all satisfied. Poor workmanship

After moving into my first new home, I quickly learned that I should have done much more research on homebuilders before signing the initial contract. 15 of 17 of my neighbors, myself included, who all bought brand new $400k+ townhomes, have had the WORST first home buying experience with Lennar. Starting from our unreliable and gossiping builder to the terrible corporate warranty request process and service. During closing, the real estate attorney even stated that many other buyers have had similar complaints and issues with Lennar. While sharing my home despairs, I also learned of a family friend who bought a Lennar home built in 2014 who also had an unpleasant experience with Lennar. I have been forewarning all my friends, coworkers, acquaintances, etc. to avoid purchasing a home from Lennar due to the negative experience I have had with them. ... More

Love our house but Lennar could have done much better with quality control. Didn’t even have a garage door night before closing. Chased for months to close items documented prior to closing.

Other than the initial sales process and the warranty personnel, the entire construction related process has been painful. Wouldn’t recommend.

I gave the overall buying experience only 3 stars because the closing date was postponed several times. When the actual date arrived I was nervous about closing because there was still a long punch list of things that were not yet completed/corrected. But I'm glad we went through with the closing. The wonderful foreman and sales office make up for the sloppy workmanship.

nothing

Very happy with the home we purchased! No major issues and if any issue raised we were always taken care of.

Make good choices for your additional cable outlets

Just know that if something is broken or not working properly be prepared to wait a loooong time to have it fixed because of mishandled scheduling issues with subcontractors. Also, the repair work can only be done on week days forcing you to take days off from work only to have the workers not show up which is incredibly frustrating. It's been almost 6 months without a working master bedroom shower

Quality of workmanship is the worst I’ve seen. This is the third house I’ve built in last 8 yrs and the worst. They try to fix it but they just don’t know how

The quality of the home is subpar I have been in my residence for less than 6 months and I have already had to have major repairs to my HVAC unit and I am still looking for compensation from Lennar. The poor craftsmanship is a direct correlation to excessive billing.

had to be on top of 5 different people to understand delays and work to be done. House looks nice, but I see a lot of issues in terms of quality and workmanship

Please make sure you see your exact home before you purchase there was some confusion on the pitches versus what I received are what I thought I was gonna be receiving I had already signed my contract to build and then found I wasn't given everything that I seen on the picture so I had to pay an additional $1000 down and over 18000 more in upgrades to receive what I want other than this my home by an experience was great

My home wasn’t ready prior to close. They had approximately 30 items on the checklist that needed to be addressed and corrected prior to close. I already sold my other home and needed to move. I had movers lined up to do so after I closed on my Lennar home. They asked me to close even know they were not close to complete and asked me for 3 additional days to finish the items we agreed to that were on my list to close. I should of trusted my better judgment & not close until the work had been completed. I closed & ended up moving into an unfinished incomplete home. They changed builders 3 times. It took 5 months to get them to come back out to complete the items. I had blue tape on the inside and outside of my home for those 5 months calling once a week to try to get them out. I had to go through warrantee, which didn’t make sense. Their reason was because I had already closed. They broke their promises & made it really difficult to get them back in. I ended up doing a lot of things myself. The 3rd builder that was supposed to handle the checklist claimed that he knew nothing about my list & was there to build the new homes. My home wasn’t on his list. He told me that I had to take the items of concern up with warrantee. The warrantee guy was not reliable & seemed to jerk me around. Most of the neighbors felt the same way and had very similar experiences. The sales folks & builders seemed to be on a revolving door. Continuous shell game. Love my location & home since I have gotten things fixed & adressed mainly from outside contractors & work myself. Very disappointed with Lennar and them allowing their employees to represent them in this manner. Most of the items would have been common sense solutions. They just had to touch things 3 & 4 times instead of taking pride in their work to do it right the 1st time. The painters & Sheetrock guys were approximately 90% of the problem. They seemed to be Day labors. Gary K ... More

I really like the house I bought from Lennar. Location is top notch. Finishing material is also very good. My experience with the sales team was also very good. Some finishing work is poor. Responsiveness is also poor. I have place a complain on a couple of electrical issues and never got anyone coming to fix them (or even to see what were my issues). Also my driveway, that was just done, is already showing holes on the concrete. Painting is bad.

Unfortunately Lennar is more focused on selling houses than building quality homes and providing good customer service. My closing date was moved up three weeks but my house had numerous items that needed to be fixed. I was assured they would be fixed after closing. Five months later, some of these items still haven’t been repaired. I submit warranty items that need to be addressed and nothing happens. Lennar eventually closes out the ticket like it’s been completed, but it hasn’t! This has happened numerous times so I eventually call customer service. It takes months to get things fixed. There needs to be better customer service (or quality control so there aren’t so many issues after closing). ... More
