Lennar Reviews in Minneapolis St. Paul, MN

Didn’t disclose the removal of windows above the patio doors, didn’t disclose the drainage ditch in the middle of the back yard. We bought the land with the understanding that the back yard was to be fairly flat now we have a 3 foot deep ditch through the middle which was never told to us.

Overall great value for the price. Disappointed that we were forced to sign a contract were I am out $25,000 until the lawn is complete. The builders and work done on the house is excellent. Overall everything works as expected. Master bedroom door doesn’t close and a couple of popped nails that I expect to be fixed during warranty. Seems like minor issues for considering the detail and quality of the builder. The general contractor took exceptional care in quality during the build leaving very little to correct later.

Lennar builds a beautiful home. We’ve only been in our home two months. We are very satisfied with the quality and workmanship The mortgage side was very helpful and made the process we easy. Overall we had a very good experience

We bought a good house. However, the people who were handling the listing, loan, and closing were terrible to work with. I have bought 6 houses before and I have never seen such a mess. Never again will I buy another property from Lennar.

Not good quality of materials

We had limited involvement with the sales team, as visited once and made an offer the next day. Cons Mgr promised to address several items pre-close, about 1/2 were taken care of

Terrible craftsmanship. You can see the mud on the sheet rocks through the paint because it is so thin and they only put one coat on. The wall when light hits it from an angle shows a large repair mound and tape line from Floor to ceiling. There’s holes in the subfloor on the second level under the carpet. There’s piles of something under the linoleum in the Laundry room. Apparently none of the floors are prepped before you just throw carpet or vinyl over it to cover up everything. Shingles have blown off the roof, garage was only taped and never finished with mud, in the tape job is terrible. The first floor vinyl planking is damage severely by the staircase because it had no protection on it . The master bathroom, vanity lights aren’t even hung at the same distance from the ceiling. The refrigerator freezer has a broken drawer and the wrong shelf and cap pieces. The heating ducks tick nonstop from the furnace running and is unbearable to listen to constantly in the living room on the main floor. The whole house humidifier randomly will be just running water down the drain when the furnace isn’t even on. The garage is sheet rocked with two walls left un-insulated, about as cheap as a builder can be. The garage floor should have been dug down to flatten out the steepness of the driveway that you can’t park on if it has ice because you’ll slide out into the street. Multiple window seals are shot with frost inside the glass. Multiple windows are scratched in the glass. The kitchen sink drain does not let the water out at the correct rate, causing it to back up Because of the angle of the drain line in the slab floor. You can feel the wind blowing through the window trim because nothing was sealed around the windows when installed. 7 foot garage doors are a joke. The furnace is under powered, even with all of the vents closed on the second level, barely anything blows out of the vents on the lower level. The concrete is horrible with cracks filled with large amounts of caulking. There’s paint on the carpet in multiple areas in the master bedroom. The floors creak already when walking on the second level. The stairway railings feels like they will fall off the wall if you put any weight on it. The microwave has a dent on the front of it, and pops and bangs after running for 4–5 minutes. This is just off the top of my head of the problems. ... More

Overall great home to live in.

A lot of issues after moving. Specially its new home but floor is making noise and door is not closing , toilet tissue holder falling down.

Ok. Didnt have a great experience with conceirge

They have a great team work authority and lots of people to help with questions along the way.

Floor is poorly done. Alot of the fixtures are falling off. As well as the ceiling sprinkler

Quality Craftsmanship … It just feels like Home !

My experience with Lennar was great. The staff that I worked with were professional and available for questions whenever needed. I would recommend Lennar to others.

I was asked for my passport and was told that this is needed by underwriter. My loan officer never talked to me about this. This is racial discrimination for me, I haven't been asked for my passport in any of my previous home buys. I am planning to file complaint with Consumer forum on this.

We bought a house from the scratch Jennifer Finley was great help to as and the engineer amazing Tommy Becker very knowledgeable and great customer service top notch, I don’t think I had that experience before .

I'm very happy with the new house.

My experience purchasing a Skye Meadows townhome has been great overall. My sales rep, Shelby was absolutely amazing, and the construction managers that assisted me with a few things after move-in were always prompt and helpful. Lennar Title was easy to work with, but the mortgage department could have communicated better throughout the process. Really my only complaint is that the quality of the finish work could use some improvement (corners of all window trim were not sanded, nail holes were not filled in floor trim, painting and caulking was sloppy, and had to clean paint spots off the flooring). All in all, I’m happy with my new townhome and would recommend purchasing a Lennar home! ... More

Great experience from start to finish.

Love the home. We have run into a few small quality issues but Lennar customer care has been great and they have been responsive to address the issues we have encountered.

The workmanship is not the best, felt like the house was potentially rushed to build. Had a leak right away from the refrigerator, flooring had to be ripped up. Carpet not laid down properly. A drawer that does not self close. Showed to someone and nothing done. The door stopper did not align with the garage door so now we have a hole in the wall. When this stuff happens, it takes away from our work schedule and having to use time off to be there when they come in to repair it. The drywall is not smooth throughout the home. Thiago on the other hand is AMAZING to work with! He called me on a Sunday to address the water leak with our refrigerator. He didn’t need to, BUT he did!! I understand things are not perfect, but when you buy new, you don’t expect so many things to be wrong. ... More

My experience as first home buyer was great. All concerned parties were helpful and tools used to process the application from beginning to end was user friendly.

Good house, but responses to any questions or concerns is bad. The customer's satisfaction is not the primary objective, but rather it is the selling of the house. After the house is sold, the response to any questions is even more bad.

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.

I chose Lennar because of their reputation and floorplan. I am however disappointed in some of the workmanship that is sloppy. Their customer service department is unapproachable except by email. There is no one who could answer a quick question or refer a client to documentation regarding an issue.
