Lennar Reviews in Philadelphia, NJ

My experience every time I visited the community offices to know the models and the community was always phenomenal, Jamie was very nice and knowledgeable. My experience with Lennar mortgage was average, communication was an issue. When I received the home, Alex was fantastic, kind, empathetic and knowledgeable.

Buying from Lennar has been a positive experience. The design is modern, functional and lots of space. If I was to suggest any improvement it will be the following: better quality appliance package, go the extra mile and finish the garage, change paint supplier and last offer the option of installing blinds.

Lennar home buying overall experience was great with minus one star. Positive: excellent, trustworthy sales team; weekly photo/video updates were very helpful; smooth communication with construction team (prior to closing only); easy and clear closing process; good material for the price. Negative: several outstanding issues (due to supply chain issues, eg windows, window screens, bathroom mirrors) are still not resolved 6 weeks after the closing (still not know when they are fixed); without reminder from the buyer, no proactive communication from construction team After the closing. Even if the exception letter was agreed at the closing, post closing process is painful. ... More

The experince was good everybody was helpful

Cheryl was a wonderful agent to work with and kept the flow of information with updates current and made the purchasing experience easy. The Lennar staff tries their best to respond in a timely fashion however some of their suppliers are not as responsive.

Buying experience was good but we had few issues in the buying process. Provided different appliances to each individuals. Few got the updated ones. Responsiveness to issues in the house is slow

So far a good experience, have some issues that I am being assisted. No upgrades available.

We absolutely love our new home and Lennar made the homebuying experience smooth and easy. However, we have had more issues than we would have liked in our first few months in the home. Our hot water heater did not work when we moved in, which left us with no hot water for approx. a week until the issue was resolved. The water lines connecting into our washing machine were also switched - another week or so to get that fixed. Now we are having an issue with our dishwasher and so far have not made any progress toward resolution despite multiple phones calls and requests. Hoping that the issues stop soon and we can enjoy our home, but it has been stressful thus far and we haven't received a lot of support in getting things resolved timely. ... More

Low quality building materials have presented numerous issues that could not be addressed until the home was lived in. I’m not confident in the longevity of the items used. Ease of closing and the responsive team are the only two reasons this isn’t a 1-2 star rating.

Good but must make a priority to improve!

Great location but quality of the material should have been more better

Really overall good experience. Depends on who you deal with as to response time or update on repair time table. Wish more durable finishes were used

Overall good as of now but I think quality wise we have to compromise

Good Builder to work with. Some issues with the home at signing but they are fairly timely with there response to issues. Be warned the interim HOA board set up prior to being handed over to the community are terrible, non-responsive and flexible with the needs of the initial homeowners who move in during during development construction phase.

Unhappy with grading and finishing yard work

For the price you pay, the quality of the work and materials used are very poor. While their ticket opening system is very easy to use, getting the issues addressed is a whole other matter. Service is extremely slow...if at all. Inspect your house very carefully before you sign anything.

The only issues I had with the complete experience was with the mortgage people and their under writers. The mortgage staff were not that responsive and could have cost me a lot extra money by not paying attention to the market and how the interest rate was going up. I would hope that their job was to help people get the best rate and to watch what was happening and advise the buyer to lock in sooner then they did. The sales team and all the construction managers who work on the site have been excellent and are a pleasure to work with.

I have had a lot of problems with this new house and feel i was overcharged compared to my neighbors. The finish work is not good, and appliances are very cheap.

1. Stone on front of home had to be replaced- poor workmanship. 2. Horrendous spackling job in the garage, stairway and storage room. 3. Key to the home does not work in the lock of the door to the house through the garage. 7 weeks later and we still do not have the proper key, which is on order. 4. Stain on front cement porch -still no solution for removal. 5. LENNAR mortgage process was a nightmare. It should be streamlined- instead it is very time- consuming and difficult to navigate. There are too many people involved. There should be one contact person for the whole process to track progress and avoid requests for duplicate information. ... More

Better than I expected

Lennar construction team did good job in delivering home on time but there were some issues with windows, stairs, drywall and more. Good thing is construction manager Jim is so good and responsive, he made sure most of my issues were resolved. We’re not happy with sales team. Our sales manager Brighid didn’t provide proper updates about house construction or open issues within the house. Also she wasn’t there during closing formalities neither contacted us before or after closing.

The nail pops, tape and spackling job leave much to be desired. Of course, the builder only wants to make these repairs once in the whole house after a year has transpired. The job is very unsightly! Otherwise, we are happy with our house and community.

Our home is beautiful, but for the price we paid, for a brand new home, there have been a lot of problems. Most of these are due to trying to put up too many homes so quickly and lack of attention to detail.

Working with Heather in sales was a great experience. She is helpful and prompt in her responses. We love the layout of our home and what it has to offer and feel that the overall construction is done well. However, the finish drywall and carpentry work leaves much to be desired. The work is the equivalent of a weekend DI wire not a professional builder. The accepted level of finish work shows the construction team’s lack of attention to detail.
