Lennar Reviews in Atlanta, GA

We love our new home at Candleberry Place! Denise, the sales agent, recommended the perfect home for us, she was so helpful and really listened to what we were looking for! She is a great asset to Lennar! Haney, the operations manager, was also very helpful when we purchased our home. He listened to my concerns about some minor problems with the home, and he had them corrected right away! He was easy to get in touch with, and followed thru with any concerns we had. Our house has all the latest amenities and we are glad we moved here!

My experience was really good. If there was an issue, it was resolved promptly. Everyone I spoke with were understanding, professional, and warm hearted.

House itself is great, but Lennar used it for equipment storage and as a some sort of break room for a few months, and now, after a close rushed by Lennar, all we hear is, “Do you have that in writing?” and, “Can’t do anything about it after the close.”

Good communication, save on the day of closing my final home walkthrough was scheduled at 9:30a and closing was scheduled at 10:00am. The locations were 45 min apart, so I missed my final walkthrough.

Considering this is a 55+ community the access to the A/C unit is in the attic. OK if you have a 2 story model. I don’t but A/C is still in the attic with access pull down stairs in the master closet. The last step to reach the attic floor is approximately 3 feet. An extremely dangerous and for most older people impossible to accomplish. As a former Appraiser I have a reasonable understanding of building codes. I find it hard to believe that this is code compliant. Additionally we have an enormous amount of dead trees throughout the development. I have one on my front lawn. When I spoke with the management company I was told Unless it is discovered at the time of the walkthrough Lennar will not replace it. When you close in January all the trees are dormant. How are you supposed to see if all the trees are dead or alive. ... More

Experience in rather disappointing, but since I have bought it there's no choice. For instance, any addition or modifications can only be done by their 3rd party contractors or warranty is voided. When contacted 3rd party for addition, they are charging 3 to 4 times higher.

I have a “swale” in my backyard that remains constantly wet, regardless of dry weather. Despite multiple dry days, the area never dries out. When I walked outside, I found not only standing water but also frogs and mosquitoes breeding in what has essentially become a stagnant puddle. I was assured by the builder and the seller that it was nothing to worry about but the issue has become worse and no one seems to want to help resolve the issue.

My experience was the worst probably in this community. I started off renting first. When I was renting I had an excellent experience in the community so I decided to start the process of buying. As I was looking around to different communities my husband wanted to stay in the same community we currently were looking into. He talked to the woman in the front office to see if or what we can do. She gave him a number to a man named Oliver. Oliver contacted and started the process. We put the earnest money down and just did what we were supposed to do as buyers. I put my 60 days notice into the rental company. Anticipating that since we had the go that we were clear to move. We did the celebration and it came down to the closing day and in the morning of the closing day Oliver called upset and told us we were denied due to 2 hours on my pay check. (It was short due to the holiday time, I had no PTO because I just started working as a nurse) I was devastated. My husband contacted the agents boss and they referred us to another company. At this point, I was just going to rent. The funny thing is I found a renter that was going to rent the same house that I was going to buy. So a man named Stephen contacted me from another lender. I told him what happened and that I was not convinced that he can get me approved. His exact words "I understand that you had a horrible experience, give me 3 days and if I don't get you approved you can go and rent"....3 days come I get the call that I was approved. With me being still distraught. I still was not convinced, because we were denied the day of the closing. Stephen knew. He still wanted to prove to me that he was able to do what he promised. I handed in the same documents that I did to Oliver. I went to my closing within 2 weeks. I thank Stephen and the NorthStar team for getting us approved. Now the reason why I gave a 1 star for "Overall home buying experience". I felt like 2 certain people in the office NOT Tiona (I apologize if I spelled her name wrong) was intentionally trying not to give us this house. The sad part about it is that out of all of the same houses they built they continuously showed the house to others and allowed them to go in there with there shoes on during bad weather. (Mind you I rented a house right behind the home we were buying.) So we seen everything. They could of shown the home across the street to it. But they didn't! I even requested if the people they shown the house too could put on shoe covers. Never happened. The reason why I put a 2 stars for "Quality of workmanship and materials" you don't see the quality of the home until after you move into it. I will put the best I can to make it mine but the home was put up fast and there are little issues that we have been taking pictures and recording. The drywall is coming apart like buckling, the was does not come out of the showers, the caulking is half done. Carpet was dirty. Blinds was not put up right to where it would turn all of the way. When we moved in the next day I go outside someone intentionally stomped my pretty bushes over. They are completely damaged. I was so upset. So I am in the process to replace them within the next few weeks and putting up security cameras. Lots more. Trustworthiness is a 1 star because they promised to do things that still weren't done. The value for the price paid. I gave a 4 star only because this is what the house was appraised at. I feel that after looking at other communities in the same price range they are more valuable. Although, I like my home. I was just turned off from the entire experience with Lennar. The reason why I put a 1 star the the "Responsiveness to issues, is because EVERYTIME I would ask for something I felt like a black sheep of the community. I am the ONLY owner that does NOT have that cute little "Private Residence sign" the most hurtful part to this is when I asked Tiona. She told me to come and get it from the office. I sent my son and the other agent in the office told him she had no sticks to the sign, so he came home and said that she said that she will bring it tomorrow. The most hurtful part is the next day I come home "ALL" of the new owners on the street (8 people) had their little "Private Residents Sign" on their yard and they are not even moved in yet. So my husband went and bought me two black signs to make me feel better. He tried but again it does not feel the same. :( I am going to put this review on every platform. I wish I went through another community maybe my review would have been different! ... More

I have had excellent response with all questions and concerns. The people at Lennar Have been excellent to work with.

The experience was horrible. I found folks at Lennar to be unethical, rude, and somewhat hostile.

Lennar Homes is a typical large volume driven home builder. Cuts corners to keep cost down for them. Paint quality is horrible. Watered down paint is barely on the walls. Adding floodlights in front and back is great, but for $15 more per light they could have added motion sensors. Floors are uneven, baseboards are all over the place and not straight at all. Hardware on kitchen cabinets installed wrong. Fireplace is nice, but a blower to push the hot air out would have been a nice touch at a very low cost. Overall the home is nice but they just cut so many corners that had they put a little extra cost and thought into the home it would definitely have a greater value and appeal. They do have some nice touches and this is definitely an upgrade to other large volume builders, but they could really separate themselves from that large volume builders pack if they just spent a little extra thought, time, and money. And they are little fixes and adds that make a world of difference. ... More

I'm pleased with my house! The house looks just like it does on YouTube and I have good warranty so far

Hello Team, Lennar is reputed builder but with zero quality on concrete. They basically don’t know how to use right concrete mix. Lack of engineering direction. All the appliances in our home are leaking. Ex : Refrigerator leak, Dishwasher leak. When we ask about concrete issues, customer service came and said sorry it’s a bad work may be done during the night time. We can’t do anything it is what it is. Customer service at lennar is there to support lennar, not the customers. They just don’t care about customers. This is our experience and feedback with Lennar with regards to our new home ... More

I was given two gate fobs about a week after I closed on my property and they do not work. Three different requests have been made to rectify this problem and I still haven’t heard back from the current HOA manager. The far gate remains open 24//7 but I would like to have this problem rectified as soon as possible. Also my name is not on the gate directory! Why is this when I closed on 12/20? Please follow up with these issues.

Susan was extremely responsive throughout the purchase of my home. In fact, she has offered “as needed” support post purchase of my home. Her professionalism and expertise is commendable!

The process was quick and went smoothly

Experience with Service department and sales agent was not not at all supportive

Staff showed signs of incompetence, lies were told about the readiness of the property, loan officer was a fast talker, and often was delayed in response, closing attorneys were big liars and incompetent, onsite realtors told several small lies ( not Malcom). I’d never go with Lennar again or recommend. Emily is great! Promote her.

I purchased a house in 2024 at a Lennar 55+ community and am very happy with the company, their product and their employees. They communicated with me in a prompt manner and helped answer any questions I had along the way. The only thing that was bumpy was the Docusign process.

Lennar is excellent at communicating.

Overall, bad experience through the process.

The whole experience was awesome and I am so happy with the purchase. From the time I made my initial visit, the staff has been so professional and helpful. I would highly recommend Lennar to anyone and am so happy with my purchase

From my deposit being paid until the signing at closing is where my buying experience actually gains most of these 5 stars. My new home concierge was fantastic, greatly helped me navigate my mortgage, inspection, and set up processes. Additionally, my new home orientation walk through with Chad and Cody was fantastic. Both were exceptionally knowledgeable and genuinely cared about my home and fixing (the minor) issues that we noticed in final walk through.

Good value for the price - beautiful clubhouse & facility.

Builder didnt share all the details of the property. After closing it has been 2 months and still didnt had mail box keys. Never this was disclosed till we close the home. No ETA for building swimming pool and cabanas that are in plan.. But still have to pay the full HOA amount which covers these maintenance costs. Overall I felt, chaulking is not done properly and when asked, the response is, it is standard. Have to escalate above some members I am interacting to get things done. Overall it left a very bad taste with this purchase experience.
