Lennar Reviews in Minneapolis St. Paul, MN

I really am disappointed that I moved in, in March and don't have a lawn yet. People in the townhouses and other houses who moved in after me have lawns ahead of me. People in townhouses don't care about lawns. I hired and paid a lawn edging company and was told final grade would be done on my property last week. We are all waiting.

This is not my first time buying a house with a national builder. I feel the quality of the drywall work in my house was sub-par. Inside corners are not smooth and appear to be a rushed job. There is a giant crack in the ceiling from the middle of the living room to the island. I understand house move and shift but I am hoping this gets fixed at some point. There was also a large chunk of concrete missing from the front porch. This was fixed by just slapping some fill in it which does not look great. Also over time will probably chip out. The builder should have had the porch replaced. I am not a fan of the white trim and cabinets. The quality of the cabinets seem rather cheap considering the price point of the house. I also know that even if we would have done a "dirt sale" we still would not have had a different option in trim/cabinets. I don't understand why a towel ring was not provided in the main bath upstairs and in the owners suite. It would be nice to have those provided and installed as part of the overall package. It would also be useful to have a storage cabinet or larger vanity in the master bath. A ceiling fan would also be very useful in the laundry room as there is no air movement in there and it becomes very hot and stuff which will lead to mold done the road. The overall experience of buying the house went smoothly. Or builders team was knowledgeable and helpful and I understand that some of the items above our out of their control. ... More

I FELT RUSHED FOR THERE STUFF AND MY QUESTIONS COULD WAIT SOME FOR DAYS.

Hi I have started with short period liked the house. Initiated all process on loan and negotiation. They put home of the week for the less price with discount and when we were talking to finalize. They came up with increasing prices. They play a lot of tricks and look for what most benefits to them. They offer very less interest rates to many customers but they don't disclose. They accidentally exposed in one email and they covered up.

House is great, service is poor. Lennar doesn't care once they have your money. Follow-up on issues is slow and you are made to feel like your issues are so trivial. A lot of money is spent on a new home, I don't think it is unreasonable to ask for even minor things to be right. I shouldnt have to fix things on my own.

Ok. Didnt have a great experience with conceirge

It's a great home. I love everything about it. I have been disappointed with the amount of service requests I have had to put in - this is a new build, I would have thought these minor details would have been taken care of.

Again, lots of money to come in to a home with a few flaws. Boss Man Contractor Jeff was awesome

Trim, doors, paint are all subpar quality… very surprising for the amount one pays for these homes. Structure well built.

Lennar is definitely a large company looking to turn homes quickly. Everything is sub-contracted out, and it doesn't seem the sub contractors really cared about the quality of their work. Lots of small imperfections that you would expect in a nearly $700k home

Material quality used in house is very cheap, the vinal floor and carpet are of very poor quality.

I purchased a model home. I had a fast close (Lennar wanted closing on 8/31). When I moved in, I didn't have a driveway and my front landscape was a mess and unfinished. They needed to fix a drain on my curb which delayed the driveway to not be complete until the end of September and it is now the middle of October and I need sod in my front yard and finishing touches around the driveway. I have also had issues getting my Ring home security system set up- it was already installed for the model home, but still having difficulty with it. I've reached out to Lennar customer service a few times but nothing was helpful. ... More

Difficult getting a hold of anyone. Dealing with multiple people to get items fixed

House is built cheap and nothing was fixed that we pointed out on the wall through before we moved in.

we had some question for the contractor , emailed twice but no response.

Home bugging and lot selections were all quick and easy to understand. We received brief updates and pictures on a weekly basis. Constructing prices was quicker than usual. Closing was easy. For anyone choosing to build, Please inspect carefully. Materials may not be the best of quality nor sturdy.

It was a fairly easy experience to buy a new home from Lennar. The whole process was great and very pleasant. After you buy they have not responded to issues, I had to resort to calling the installers to fix issues like flooding in the yard. In addition, I entered multiple service requests and have not received any communications from Lennar.

House is great, Hate the landscaping

Sales staff are awesome but horrible response from Lennar regarding issues after moving.

We moved into our house in March and overall it is great but we immediately had issues with our dishwasher. We also realized that the line from the Lennar sales rep of “we’ll always be there for you” was a bunch of bull. Immediately after signing they essentially wash their hands of any issues or responsibilities

Walls not plumb and square. Flooring not square. Exterior walls bowded and sidding severely rippled. Soffit trim rippled nor square. Foundation wall pour is rough and one area whete the form had slipped out causing uneven wall. Garage floor, concrete chips are poping put.

The house is so expensive and the materials used on the home is very low grade quality. I put a nail on the wall, it just moves without any resistance because there was no wood on the walls. I later discovered the walls are made of cartoons instead of wood. It's a very bad experience I have had. Everything is just falling off just 3 weeks of being in the home.

Planting dead or dying trees on new builds. I used virtual assistance fir mine and when I said my neighbors trees were dead and other trees they were planting looked dead or dying the person who helped me said she’s only dealing with my issues nor my neighbors or surrounding area’s trees. This is sad because it affects the overall appearance of the community. Maybe the neighbors are not computer literate enough to know how to submit their concerns.

The home buying process with Lennar is great and seamless. We chose to go with Lennar Mortgage and that made it even more smooth. If you are building with Lennar you need to be prepared, there is no grey area and VERY limited choices. The quality of material continually went down as we went through the process of picking a lot and building. We went from you have several choices of cabinet to you get white. Our pocket door is unusually small and the powder room sink isn't even big enough to hold soap for guests. These are the details, they have forgotten about. If someone gave thought to how a person lives in a house, this would be an amazing builder. Floor plan options, communication, resolution of issues are all A+ with Lennar. ... More

Overall buying experience was good. The quality of appliances were not great and Lennar should provide better quality and long lasting appliances. Lennar Mortgage experience wasn't great. Need to improve on overall experience.
