Lennar Reviews in Las Vegas, NV

I am sad to be giving such a poor review when I absolutely love our home and had a great experience with so many of the team. I will start with the good parts. I love the home, the location, and the Lennar product. Rick the construction manager and Dana the Customer Service manager have been simply wonderful all throughout. Alex from Lennar mortgage was fabulous and though we had bumps on the road he moved mountains to help turn things around and was patient with our technology imperfections. Sadly, Jonathan and Marcelle on the realtor side left what should have been an amazing experience of buying our dream home an unresolved bitter experience. We were supposed to receive keys on May 3rd. We arrived to a red carpet, banner, and amazing customer service from Rick and Dana. Within minutes we received a call that due to a breakdown in communication between the mortgage side and the realtor no inspection had been ordered and we could not receive keys that day. Awful and devastating! Movers had been scheduled, work had been missed, landlords had been informed, and penalty fees had been paid. However, my family was willing to regroup and be flexible to resolve everything to get moved into our dream home. All we needed was communication and empathy. What we received was a drastic difference in customer service between the 2 departments. Alex from mortgage and his team moved heaven and earth, apologized, and checked in on us during what ended up being 3 weeks before we could actually move in. Jonathan blamed mortgage, my family (for a lack of understanding of information he never provided), and showed zero empathy. I ended up having to talk to his supervisor Marcelle. I had to place multiple calls before she would speak with me. When we did speak she showed some empathy but placed the blame solely on mortgage despite acknowledging Jonathan's bad customer service labeling it a "coaching opportunity". We expressed our appreciation but requested also to be made whole from all the financial impact these errors had caused. We did not want to profit just reimbursement for the real financial impact all this had caused. Marcelle said she would email someone and follow up. It is a month and a half later and Marcelle has never called back. We've left multiple voicemails, asked assistance from others who route us back to her, last week I received an email that she "would be willing to speak with me", I requested a time and have heard nothing once again... Deeply disappointing and all things that would have been resolved with a little human kindness. I am requesting follow-up now from the corporate office. Thank you ... More

The quality is lacking and Phil the customer service rep is horrible it wasn’t until I got a hold of his boss that anything got done around my house. They slap the houses together and want to walk away as soon as you move in no follow up poor customer service

Cindy our sales agent was great. We were told we could close after we got back from vacation, the sales manager than told us we couldn't and we needed to close before we left. After speaking with several people, they honored the original agreement. We did a walk through with the agent, there were alot of touchup and other items not working, to which I was told, would be corrected. When we got back from vacay and went to see the items, they were not only corrected, the person lied and said they were. They used the wrong paint to touch up the whole house, the doors weren't lined up properly and I am still correcting a main water leak that was there when we moved in and that has cost me a fortune to correct in not just labor but water bills. Someone broke the automatic blinds, to which I was told, "oh well." It took weeks to get someone out to get the lutron and ruckus working. The paint for the house is unavailable and we are borrowing from neighbors to correct the awful job they did in the house. The floors were scratched and they told me too bad. The refrigerator didn't work and they told me if I bought the filter and that didn't fix it they would come out and fix it. I bought the filter, still wasn't working. They told me that they didn't tell me that and to call GE. Someone stole my Keurig part for the refrigerator and I had to replace that. When I brought this up to the sales manager, she said I got the house for the $15k less than the list price so I should be happy. It has been an awful experience. I have bought brand new houses before, and being a Realtor, I sell brand new houses, I have never had this much trouble and been this disappointed. ... More

I was raised in a family of building contractors and at age 14, started working in all phases of construction. That's 60 years of experience. Regarding Lennar, rarely have I seen such sub standard construction, cheap finishes, no attention to detail, terrible service and lack of credibility. I have a library of photo's to share if anyone is interested in my claims that follow. Instead of using a multi tool, holes are pounded out of sheetrock and cabinetry with a hammer. Hand railings, faucets, toilets, electrical boxes are often not square. A worker painted my handrail, leaving the bird poop and stucco mud under the paint. This was corrected after I complained to construction manager. Example of service: I needed a faulty 20 amp breaker replaced (a $6 item at Lowes). After 2 months I gave up on Lennar. I purchased the breaker and had an electrician install. it. The service call cost me $125, but worth getting past the aggrevation. My ongoing and worst experience is living in our building. It hasn't yet been turned over to the HOA, and consequently hasn't been cleaned or maintained. We've been living in a dirty, litter strewn building for 2 months. I have complained to both the sales staff and construction staff about this with little or no action. I have a collection of photos to show anyone who is interested. ... More

Slow response to service requests

Quality is not great. “Everything’s Included” but low quality. Appliances and gadgets installed are outdated.

I recently purchased a brand new everything is included lennar home unfortunately, i as well as many other homeowners in the community have had an avalanche of issues. Faulty/ low quality garage doors, low quality workmanship throughout house. A real disaster

If Lennar was the last builder on the planet, I was still not recommend them.

Lennar homes are basic. Carpet, linoleum, paint are poor quality. Representatives provide assurance that if anything is wrong, they will take care of it, but when you enter a warranty claim they deny. Items that are clearly builder mistakes do not get fixed. All Lennar reps - Mortgage - Escrow - Builder tell you it is "not their job" to do something. Very poor service in all departments.

The quality of construction, materials used and addressing service requests has been disappointing for the amount of money we paid to buy this house.

From day one, you're on your own! NHCs are worthless. Male construction manager won't talk to you and ignores emails. Responsiveness is slim to none. Too many mistakes were made, and when you point them out, they get mad and ignore you even more. The only time you hear from Lennar is when they want money. Otherwise, you remain in limbo for the duration of construction. The most unfriendly builder (except for one concierge) in NV, and I've dealt with several over the last 30+ years. If not for the floor plan and location, I would have cancelled my contract and walked away. If you don't care about communication or workmanship, and plan to stay silent the entire time, they you'll be fine. If not, just know that you'll have to be your advocate by keeping an eye on things on a weekly basis, especially towards the end. And know that there are NO options. The entire experience was extremely frustrating and disheartening, especially for the price that you pay...and never know what's going on. ... More

Where do I start. I bought my house in January got the keys in July. 1 week before closing Lennar decided that they were going to send off my loan to another loan company without even calling me first to notify me that I didn’t qualify. I was never even told that I wasn’t qualifying for my house loan so I was blind sided when I got a call from another lender. We did a walk through of the house to mark things that needed to be fixed. Couple weeks later We did the final walk through and nothing repaired. The contractor told me with an attitude that we weren’t there to find new flaws. Cracked paint in the closets, missing paint. Windows missing caulking and paint, carpet cut to short from the wall, vynol cut too short at the door and FIXED with caulking instead of being reinstalled correctly. Door trim with a huge gap from the door. Hole in the baseboard fixed with grout instead of being replaced. Fixtures installed on the wall with stuff stuck behind them so they are not flat on the wall. Hole in the cement floor in the garage. Bath tubs with stains and cracks. When I set up appointments for repairs they repair everything with caulking. No replacing and fixing everything correctly they just patch it all up. Crazy how you buy a brand new house and when you call to complaint about ants being all over the house they state they can’t do anything about it. You would think that the house would be sprayed for insects before keys are given to you. Ants are under the carpet as if coming from the foundation. We have had so many issues with this house that idk if the house is worth what we paid. The contractor didn’t care about fixing anything before handing over the keys, I don’t get how he’s not embarrassed of the workmanship provided by the people they contract. The only person that helped us was our sales rep that went to bat for us when the loan officer couldn’t do her job. He helped us from day 1 when we picked the lot and helped us until the very end and gave us our keys. Honestly I don’t know if I would ever purchase a Lennar home ever again. Buying a new home should be a stress free and repair free experience since we didn’t purchase a fixer upper but at the end it feels like we did which is pretty sad. ... More

Don't buy New Builds from Lennar. The homes are not worth the price because the quality is not there. The materials that are used are low end and cheap especially in the interior of the home. The companies they hire to complete the inside of the homes have no repect for quality of workmanship. My house is terrible and I regret buying it!

Horrible experience. If it wasn't for the good Floorplan we would have walked away! Very very poor workmanship. There isn't a wall straight in the house. No craftsmanship. Don't buy Lennar!

I’m 68 years old they are the worst and cheapest builders of anybody I have ever encountered

Lennar builds a poor quality home.

My experience was very stressful from beginning to end.

Builder not addressing the problen with garbage around dumpsters and community streets . Builder allowing sub Contractors to play loud music disturbing residents. No quality check of home before released to buyer. Pets policy not enforced or addressed.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER, LENNAR! From the fact that: 1. You sent us a "Notice of Non-Compliance" and said you were going to cancel our contract and retain our deposit after LENNAR failed to provide the home on the scheduled due date due to construction delays. Why would you send this Notice of Non-Compliance when it wasn't our fault for the delay? This caused EXTREME stress during an already stressful time. SHAME ON LENNAR FOR CAUSING THIS STRESS! 2. Our Lennar "Sales Agent" Jonathan ditched us leaving us with no representation on navigating Lennar's home-buying process. Why did he ditch us? Because our appraisal came in much lower than the purchase price and we asked that we negotiate the price to the appraisal price. He never answered our calls, when he would finally get back to us he would schedule a time for a call but then didn't call us for hours later. Poor time management! SHAME ON LENNAR FOR HIRING HORRIBLE AGENTS (we aren't the only buyer in the neighborhood who said the same thing about this agent by the way which we learned after we closed escrow so this wasn't a "disgruntled homebuyer" experience). 3. Everything is Included is a joke. You need to get rid of this motto because clearly everything is NOT included. Even though LENNAR made us docusign an "Everything's Included" document that included towel bars, towel hooks, and a paper towel holder, this was not provided. SHAME ON LENNAR FOR RENEGING ON THE CONTRACT! Since we have had no resolution on this and our Area Sales Manager Blaine kept saying "Do you want the house or not?" (what kind of customer service is this anyway?), we have been forced to escalate this to Lennar Executives. If we don't get resolution from this, we will go to the media to inform other local area buyers to read through their "Everything's Included" document. The models still have these items and they do not include "optional" signs on them. GET RID OF THE "EVERYTHING'S INCLUDED" MOTTO LENNAR -- IT'S A LIE!!! Lennar has taken other things off of their "Everything's Included" list -- downsizing refrigerators, taking away the mesh system, removing the ice maker, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. Again, SHAME ON LENNAR FOR MAKING THIS THE WORST HOME BUYING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. I WILL NEVER, EVER, RECOMMEND LENNAR TO A FAMILY MEMBER OR FRIEND. ... More

Construction team led by Dave was negligible. None of my initial concerns during the home inspection were addressed, so a second home inspection had to be held with the manager Oscar and they fixed all issues the second time. However before the manager assisted, Dave became very rude and irate for his own failures and had to be removed from the process. When I buy a new house, I expect it to look new. However there were countless blemishes and cracks that Dave was more upset I noticed than he was for the lack of quality work from HIS team and lack of inspection from himself. The company overlooks his childish and unprofessional behavior which in turn allows his employees to feel they are allowed to act the same. ... More

When we showed up to view the home before we bought the Lennar agent did not even know which house we were looking at on the street or what was included in the property. Then she was high pressure to sign a contract that night even though we had sent in our deposit. She never mentioned the 7 day right to cancel, not that we were looking to cancel but since she didn't know much about the community, we wanted to review some things. The lender was even worse. So many times when things were questioned, the answer was wrong. I asked about holding title in trust and was told VA doesn't allow such which was not correct. That was a Lennar overlay. We would receive emails for documents stating upload them in 48 hours and then weeks later get asked for more. Even at the very end, we were asked for additional documentation that we felt should have been covered up front. Then Lennar Title sent us an addendum to hold it in trust and when I questioned Title I was told that was a mistake. The site super never responded when we contacted him for questions on pools and other items. He told us pools were limited to 400 sq ft per the city and that was not correct. Just felt like no one knew their job. I expressed to the lender that she better stay with a builder where clients have no choice but to use the in house lender as she would never make it in the real world where she has to gain the business versus being an "order taker". She couldn't calculate credits and her supervisor had to get involved. The quality of craftsmanship has been extremely disappointing since we moved in. What other builder only puts one switch into a room for the ceiling fan and no switched plugs for lighting. The only good Lennar person we have interacted with so far has been Doug. Amazing at customer service. We had a much better experience with our purchase from Century Communities a few years ago. I have myself been in the Real Estate business for 25 years and would not recommend a Lennar home to a friend going forward. We have spoken to neighbors and all had what sounded like similar experiences. I ignored Lennar's first request for a review because it was not a great experience but since they kept asking, here it is. ... More

I wanted to take a moment to share my recent experience with the online home buying process. While we are absolutely thrilled with our new home, I must express my disappointment with the overall communication and organization throughout the process online. The process of submitting required documents proved to be quite challenging, as we encountered delays and inconsistencies in responses. Despite our timely submissions, there were prolonged periods of silence and requests for duplicate information. It was evident that some individuals involved were not fully equipped to handle online emails and documents efficiently. Upon reaching the closing stage, we encountered additional obstacles with requests for unnecessary documentation and proof of income, leading to further disorganization and frustration. The lack of clarity and poor communication from the loan team exacerbated our concerns, leaving us feeling perplexed and dissatisfied. I feel compelled to highlight the credit person who provided exemplary assistance and demonstrated a clear understanding of our queries. Regrettably, this positive experience was overshadowed by the overall dissatisfaction with the process and the team's inability to address our concerns adequately. In light of these challenges, I caution against engaging in online home purchases without thorough consideration and understanding of the potential drawbacks. I sincerely hope that this feedback will be constructive and help improve the experience for future clients. ... More

Lennar finance was awful in communication. The house itself is good but communication in Lennar is terrible

Horrible experience by my brand new home with Lennar I do not recommend this builder I have the following issues and have never been resolved: 1. Significant deviation between what was delivered and the model I toured. 2. Unable to get cold water because they failed to dig the water piping. 3. I received old appliances probably because the nicer ones were not available anymore. 4. The kitchen is supposed to have a trash compactor Lennar did not install one nor did they want to install one. 5. Electrical plugs/outlets were different than the ones in the model home. 6. Different doors were installed versus the ones we saw in the model home. ... More

The closing experience was the worst. Lennar Mtg had my initial information 5 weeks ahead of closing - they asked for multiple docs sometimes twice, they failed to forget we had an out of state signing and it took several calls and support from others outside of Lennar to get the closing completed. Lennar knew we had closed and had movers coming to deliver and they acted like it was no big deal until there was pressure and then the closing day was a mess- didn't receive my front door code until 5pm and then it didn't work. And we didn't even have a garage door key pads or a packet at the house as promised. Beware- make sure you have written approval to close 1 week prior. Now after closing - the follow up on warranty issues has been great so far. ... More
