Lennar Reviews in Boise, ID

As a former licensed realtor and third time homeowner, this is by far the most awful home buying experience I’ve ever not only personally experienced but seen in the industry. Lennar is not well established in Idaho and is unable to find decent contractors to build their homes. While these homes have nice layouts and they buy decent materials to put in the homes, they are built horribly. Our home’s floor was never leveled and there are large gaps between the floors and baseboards and our floors bubble in places and our back sliding door is difficult to close because it’s uneven. The siding on the outside wasn’t installed correctly and has been buckling and cracking since we moved in a month ago. The HVAC system also wasn’t done correctly and the return air vent sounds like a jet engine when the AC kicks on- we can’t even have a conversation in the living room when it’s on. Our neighbors are all experiencing similar issues and nobody at Lennar is taking action to fix these structural problems that are causing safety hazards in our homes. Their warranty team seems highly unorganized and is having trouble keeping track of service tickets- everyone claims they are new and not sure what to do. We bought a Lennar home because we wanted a more unique home layout and nicer quality than CBH and love the location, but if we had known this is what we were getting into we would have stayed far away. Please learn from our mistake and run. ... More

Buying from Lennar was like being bullied into a deal. When we bought the house they shortcut a lot of things. The sub contractors were not caring at all about their craft. Lennar forced us to stick to the contract even though they were weeks behind on their work. The final walkthrough was scheduled after the closing date. They refused to budge on adjusting time frames and owning up to the work that needed to get done. By the time final walkthrough happened. They needed to touch up all the baseboards in the house and repaint/repair a lot of areas. Lennar also refused to follow specs. Not giving us closets and grass with sprinklers as promised. Throwing $5 bag of mulch down and calling it done. We have constant leaks and flooding in the garage because the house was built wrong. Customer service promise to resolve issues but schedule weeks out. I will look into legal actions but buyer beware!!! ... More

We identified multiple issues throughout the process of the build, yet they were not rectified. Now we are stuck with a large inconvenience as these things still need to be fixed and the emotional stress of not being able to fully move into our new house. The house has to be repainted, multiple windows replaced due to improper installation leaving windows to not close, the conditioned crawl space was not professionally done, multiple finishing issues throughout the house, and the exterior of the house has equal amount of finishing issues and sections of concrete needing to be repoured due to wood and debris being allowed to get into the concrete causing it to crack due to water/ice expansion. Even the design is flawed, given we have over a 110 gallon master bath tub but only a 50 gallon water heater. Industry standard calls for a minimum 2/3 ratio which would be approximately a 75 gallon water heater (why not install a tankless system???). The mortgage/lending team were not familiar with the military or VA loans which was disheartening. I feel like I grossly overpaid, expecting a Lennar quality home that you’d see in other states, but received an “economy” build where you’d expect corners to be cut and quality to be poor. Lennar is better than this, but it doesn’t show and is not represented by my home. I hope they are professional and compensate us appropriately. ... More

It’s been 2 months and there’s no scheduled time for my touch up painting to be done and they are now no longer working with the painter they used and don’t have a new one
