Lennar Reviews in Ocean County, NJ

If I lived closer I would have watched through all stages of the build. Also, if I were able to change some of the design and products used as the build progressed, even of I had to pay more to accomplish that.

I love my new home. The experience was very good and the quality of appliances is above average. I would have liked a chance to upgrade to the washing machine used in the single family homes. I did think they could have been better about giving more notice of closing date because I was selling a home at the same time. I also wish I had my own mailbox because I do worry about going over to central boxes in 20 years. The home layout is great and the bathrooms are very nice. Love all the countertop and cabinet space in the kitchen. Some outstanding issues to be resolved but nothing too major. I'd say response to issues is average. I would definitely recommend Lennar as a builder. ... More

Great experience from initial property tour until the closing. Colleen and Abby were knowledgeable and very helpful throughout the process. Gino also was very professional and helpful with the financing of our home. Unfortunately, we encountered a lot of loose ends and quality issues with the craftsmanship once we moved in. Danielle has been very responsive and is working very hard in resolving our issues and we appreciate her help. We love our new home!

House was built even before planned date and meet our expectations.

First time buying a home, so was very unfamiliar with process. Salesperson and Mortgage broker were AMAZING! On sight construction reps, Andy and Gina helped coordinate any issues immediately and professionally.

The sale was a breeze but the receptivity of the project manager was negative. my back yard was missing sod and the rational provided by the project manger was very disappointing if not ridiculous!

Response to the punch list was/is much to long.

After moving in customer suppory and service by the Lennar team was very good.

Altogether the home is decent, but the workmanship was shoddy in places, with some carelessness, sloppiness, or not paying attention to details. And many issues that needed fixing that we pointed out even before closing still have not been fixed more than a month and a half later. The included appliances, cabinets, and flooring seem to be the cheapest Lennar could find. Some aspects of the design of the home were not thought out well, with shower heads and bathroom cabinets being too high, and the garage too small and driveway too narrow - I can barely fit my car in the garage. What's the point of a garage if you can't put your car into it!? The construction quality seemed poor also, with cracks in the foundation and split/broken 2x4s in the frame. Also options for cabinets and flooring that we saw in the model were no longer available at the time we wanted to buy. They cut back on a lot. ... More

Lennar mortgage personnel was an absolute nightmare I recommend getting your own mortgage company big time!!!

Lennar should have never got into Mortgage business they did not have a clue. Their homes are well built and I am happy with my purchase but the mortgage process was extremely stressful and a lot of unnecessary transfer of duplicate documents.

Quality of the house is good but the quality of the flooring, appliances. cabinetry and granite where below average. I knew this when I bought. My choice was to invest in replacing flooring and appliances and add hardware to cabinets when I moved in. Lennar should have gave the same quality and attention that is given to the single family homes

The workmanship and materials are sub par. For a new home, many follow up repairs are needed, which is ridiculous.

This will be a nice community. Unfortunately clubhouse and pool will still not be completed next summer. The homes are pretty well constructed but attention was not paid to detail such as the finishing work on the cabinets and flooring.

Sales department and building department are not aligned. Definitely have opportunities to improve

Experience was ok, house ok , service all just ok. Nothing special about this builder especially if you like a lot of crooked things like Ceilings, window sills and walls,

Make sure you do your homework before your walk though!!!

I wish I could have chosen some of the options myself rather than the sales agent picking everything. I also feel some of the finishes in the home could have been a better quality. I do like the layout of the house but there are things I would have done differently:, lighting, location of outlets, added towel bars, medicine cabinet etc. Short on amenities. Love the location and convenience!

HVAC system is really Bad, Lennar needs to look into it and fix the problem. We were told to keep Fan on, it is very noisy, very difficult to sleep at night. Some parts of home are very cold and upstairs is hot like oven, It is a shame builder like Lennar giving this kind of system, we have paid almost half a million for our home, this is totally unacceptable

Extremely disappointing! Would not purchase another home by builder.

House needs work. Poor masonry work Poor grounds Plants dead when we moved in Hardly any mulch Outside steps horrible mason work

People moving in to a 55+ community more than likely are going to spend their older years in their new homes. Unfortunately, Lennar and associates definitely put pricing ahead of convenience for older residents. Example: How can a person depending on a wheel chair, can claim up to the attic every three months to change the A/C filter? Two hands are need it to get a glass of water out of the refrigerator. An steep stool is necessary to get your clothes out of the washing machine, an less you are over 6 feet toll, as well as to be able to reach the laundry room shelves. The dishwasher counts wit only one cycle, and that is for one full hour. "Wood" floors are so very thin that when an small can of soup felt it made a dent. Houses are only half insulated. Garages and attics come without being painted, for the owner to add to his new expenses, a side for the very high price already paid. ... More

Very frustrating experience , things falling apart all around me

They are rushing and missing important parts of quality to the home. The construction management is not knowledgeable.

No upgrades are offered in home. This is our second move into an Adult Community. This one is poorly run.
