Our experience was horrible, we chose and paid for a model Santa Rosa. However, our home was not built like the model. My master bedroom is missing two windows, a dining room should have been the enginery flood instead of a carpet. we got 1000 back for carper. The home was over price didn't pass the appraiser's value, we were given 11,000 after our lawyer was able to reach cooperate, but it still has 15,000 underwater. Adam was won't let us talk to cooperate at the beginning. We talked to Steve who was reasonable but Adam was always in the way with lies. If we have discovered the missing windows before closing. We wouldn't have a close on this home. The square footage was reduced in the living room. If you show us a model and we love the model and choose to pay for the model. My home should be built like the model. Don't show us something we work hard to pay for and subtract things out of the model. We appreciate the help, and we also regret closing on the home with missing windows that we pay for. ... More

Very bad experience, with everyone at Lennar Homes. I have been calling Lennar Corporate telephone number for weeks , I even sent a email and have not got a response. Today is August 29, 2022 and I have only two days left before my 60 day home warranty expires. During my closing walk through there was so much I saw that need to be fixed, the builder supervisor said don’t worry you have 60 days. Well my 60 days expire in 2 days and guess what I can’t get anyone to respond to my request. I will never build or purchase another home from Lennar or refer any of my friends and family to Lennar builders. The one big mistake I made during purchasing a home with LENNAR Builders was I thought that the sales person was helping me, when she is solely out to help the builder. Please let everyone of your buying a new home, please take a realtor with you, they are your true help. Also the other big mistake was not hiring a Realastate Attorney, if it had not been for a outside mortgage I used. I would have lost my earnest money and my home. This experience with LENNAR Homes have taught me a lot about making sure you cover yourself. I know we had a pandemic but this type of service and work is no excuse. I hope I helped someone today, please protect yourself and your investment get a real estate Attorney and a realtor. Please save your self from the big headache not doing this caused me. ... More

Had the worst experience with the mortgage company as the agent handling the paper work doesn't know the calculation. Plus requested unnecessary documents from the third party as there personal bank statements which at the was not provided and still loan was approved. Really bad material plus construction work. It's not even month and floor started making noises as old houses. Basement has leaks as we started water sprinklers just think water is coming into basement just from water sprinklers that are used to water garden. Still don't have mailbox for the house. So have to go to USPS to get the mails. Bathroom tab started leaking water when made complaint in warranty still haven't scheduled to repair it. When asked who will pay bill for the water as it is continuously leaking and the answer was that is normal the bill won't be that big. No one wants to answer their phones and keep avoiding you. ...

Don't deal with them - they lie and will not honor their part, they are selling you and then completely take you for a ride or take advantage of you ! I will never do business with Lennar again in my life, I need to create a legal case to make them listen. Horrible company !!!

One of the WORST!!!!! Never ever will purchase a home from Lennar!

Horrible at getting back, I have been waiting for work to be done for months, flooding issues, horrible
