Overall Lennar is a great company to work with. The staff that they have are very nice, great to work with and very responsive to issues. The area that is lacking is the details of the work. After moving in I realized that there are window frames that the nail marks that were covered with sparkle were never wiped/sanded down so there are just clay clumps all over the window frames. Also, we had 3 different water issues (dishwasher base cracked=water in basement, washing machine hose not tightened= water behind washing machine and on bathroom floor, cracked ceiling vent= water all over floor of bathroom during rain. Another issues is several nails sticking out of the carpet on the stairs. While these issues were definitely disheartening, I am still happy with our purchase overall. ... More

Very poor quality products and sloppy workmanship. I have a long list of complaints.

The layout of the home is very nice as is the exterior, However, some materials used on the interior are very cheap. The carpet is very thin and padding is lumpy. There were lots of paint touch ups needed, which Lennar has been very responsive to correct. We discover new cracks or nail pops every now and then, which we know will be repaired by Lennar, but it's still disheartening. Gutters were not included, which caused serious icing issues during winter.

I don't like this kind of surveys because at the end for a few bad apples the whole team is rated.

The home is very beautiful. In comparison to the home I bought 2 years ago the finish work on this home needs improvement. Miters, paint drips, grout work, touching up nail heads and other aspects are a bit sloppy.

Siding not finished on house. Decking done incorrectly with wrong materials. Gray hole filler used on dark brown cabinets, looks like paint spatters. Grading on lot buried construction debris such as nails, wood & metal scrap, etc. No warning when tradesmen would show up AFTER move in Surprise! Material used on back porch were not what was sold to us nor per plans submitted. Cracks and nail pops never fixed. Touch-up on paint not done. Repeated attempts to resolve deck and siding issues gone unanswered. Grading not done to code 3:1, Hit house numerous times with large machinery. Subcontractor lied about installation procure for screen and decking. ... More

Find a different builder.

Quality is cheap and house is price too high. Everything is definitely minimum standard only.

Extra parking is very limited.

Overall, we are happy with our new home purchase, but we found many of Lennar's people operate with a lack of professionalism. They are not particularly responsive, they are often rude, and they do not hold a particularly high bar for quality.

Nicely built house for how quick they are built- after moving in and trying to hang pictures on the walls we noticed how bowed the walls are to the point that we cant hang pictures with the command strips.

Lennar is one of the best builders around the Twin Cities. I had a wonderful experience working with the sales manger Sarah. She does all she can to answer all my question in a timely manner.

I had no idea how bad a new home could be.

This is my third new home built. This is by far the worst one. The walls are very uneven the painters are of poor quality. Several things need to be fixed. Not sure if I would recommend lennar

I would tell anyone considering building with Lennar to run in the opposite direction

The people at Lennar are awesome to work with. One of the reasons we chose Lennar is because of the detail and workmanship that they have in their homes.

So much fun buying our first home through Lennar! They made it really easy for us

The layout of Lennar homes are beautiful. But after owning one, I’d say the quality is lacking. But we love our home and are working through various workmanship issues.

It's been 4 months since we moved in, from multiple dishwasher leak to replacing floor in the kitchen, we've had multiple issues with the quality of construction. Especially the dry wall, sheet rock issues. Many corners are crooked & had to redo them. All the air vents had huge bulges which required cutting the dry wall & repairing them. It's been 4 months & the repairs continue & note that, all these were part of addendum during closing. Lack of communication & trust since the time we signed the PA. We were promised a full lot for $44700 lot premium, half of our lot is now covered in water. When we raised this issue during drywall meeting & closure, we were told nothing can be done. We have an written email stating our lot is full size justifying the lot premium & there's no pond water in our lot. However, that's not the case. We've escalated this issue 3 months ago, yet to hear back on this from Lennar. We decided to buy Lennar as many of our friends suggested the quality is good, however in the last year or so, the quality is going south is something we often hear in our community. We've paid $0.62M for a sub-standard quality & all the pains our family had to go through with no dishwasher for 3 months & no kitchen flooring for a month & yet we continue to wait to hear from Lennar on how they are going to compensate for this pain & make things right for us. Out of curiosity we've seen few other houses in our community, which is same model (including model house) which has lot better finish. We've had no construction manager monitoring the build due to attrition & seem like we are the only one in the community who's faced all these issues. I would request & great appreciate if Lennar can take this seriously & help rectify these going forward. Our celebration of closing on a house is far from being a celebration, rather a series of repair & pain in providing for my family with 2 young children. ... More

Everything is fine. People we worked with were very nice and helpful. Love the house.

This home could have been beautiful. The layout, color scheme, location were all ideal. We have had nothing but trouble since we purchased. Water leaks, appliances that don’t work, landscaping is awful, poor workmanship throughout . Obvious that quality is not a top priority, but mass production is. My dream home has been a nightmare.

I will definitely recommend Lennar

We are kind of disappointed in the craftsmanship in your home .its like they rushed to build it

We are happy with our home purchase. There have been a few issues but so far are prompt u to o give attention to them.
