Lennar Reviews in Charlotte, NC

Trying to get a closing date was a nightmare and all amenities which we are paying thousands for are not be completed for more than a year later. People have been in here 2 years and receiving nothing but paying high HOA and taxes.

Slow to respond to issues. Shady in advertising and promotions. Make sure they give you the right keys if you do buy, or you’ll be like me, locked out of your own home on moving day.

Many issues still remain. Still upset that we were promised a refrigerator but did not receive it. Bought during April when they had the special but we did not receive it.

Very poor construction manager. As a customer you need to visit every day your home while construction if you want to save yourself. Before I bought the home they promised fence will come outside the property and it was not completed as promised. Would never recommend. With raising market these people dont even care to hear the concern once you close the home

We are disappointed in the lack of care presented by Lennar. We we’re given a “book” at our final walk through that covers what Lennar will and will not cover in the warranty period (before closing and after closing). If we had seen this before deciding to build here, we would have most likely walked away. We have had to take care of several issues at our own expense which leads us to believe that they don’t care about customer satisfaction. Issues like a French drain in our back yard because five houses drain into it and it stayed wet multiple days following a rainy day. No heat/cooling vent in our large walk-in closet in the master bedroom, so we had one installed. We are deciding what to do about the fact that they have provided substandard Sheetrock finishing that shows every seam in the ceiling (and down some walls) in our great room and other rooms. The response here was that we were given a level 3 out if 7 levels of Sheetrock finishes and seams will show. Living in South Carolina, we have hot, humid days in the summer. The air conditioner doesn’t remove enough of the humidity...the unit struggles to get the humidity level in the house to 70% which is well above EPA standards (they recommend a range of 30-50% in an ideal situation, but definitely below 60% to prevent mold growth) and this is an “Energy Star” home! This seems inappropriate for an “Energy Star” rating. So, we feel we have paid a high price for a mediocre home. ... More

The buying experience wasn’t bad - the aftermath of issues and builders not responding. The lack of communication and overall experience not recommended.

The quality of our home is less than satisfactory. It seems Lennar chooses to use too many inexperienced craftsmen and ultimately cannot deliver the quality of home you pay for. Finish work is definitely an area where they need to use more experienced craftsmen. Drywall finish, trim, painters, tile and cabinetry installation are all areas that NEED better QC focus, And Caulking cannot be the answer to every crack and crevice. The paint used is just contractor grade and any little bump or touch leaves a mark than cannot be wiped off or out. Nice looking homes and good layout/designs - just wish Lennar would improve the Quality of their work and you got what you paid for. ... More

Within a week my house has nail pop, cracks in the walls and don’t get me on the easy to stain flat paint they use. You fall in love with the model they show you and then they decide to tweek little things like 4 led lights in the dining room instead of the one so I can put a chandelier like I thought I could. I thought I was getting a decent size laundry room and the darn room can barely fit my washer and dryer. Not mulch for decor, just cheep pine needles. The house probably costs a little over 100,000 to build and we paid 445,000 for it. Worse thing is, is that they make is so after 30 days you cannot back out of buying the house. So when when you walk into a completely different home than what you thought you purchased, ain’t crap you can do. Go buy a KB home.. they are way more upfront and genuinely want you to be happy when you purchase your new home. ... More

Bought home at Lennar Huntersville NC, construction quality is below average, materials used cheapest.. Common Mail box is in front of house , but they assigned 2 blocks away so this is the sample example of them If you want to waste your.Money then buy many homes with Lennar

Do not trust this builder. We were lied to throughout the process and the quality of workmanship on our home was very poor. We will not recommend Lennar to anyone in the future.

Upgraded cabinets were not cared for. After installation we saw several small indents,scratches and paint chips. Flooring was put in with three spot of red sharpie showing, can find a way to remove them without damaging the visual appreance. Sod was installed without any watering being done. Struggling greatly with that this summer. One of our trees died. ( Yes we watered it). Drywall screws are backing out like crazy. This is making painting nightmare. For almost $400,000. We thought we would get more quality out of it. Lots of headaches to go through this first year. Lots of short cuts Lennar took. ... More

The process in the application was ok, however, information regarding what was covered and offered, was not clearly explained. The price for HOA dues were incorrectly quoated which caused some descrepiency with the HOA once moved in, HOA stating the price was higher. I have yet to speak to a HOA Rep. with a live voice, I only get e-mails, which some are just a paste and resend copy from a previous onversation. There were issues such as broken blind, structural repairs needed, paint issues, wiring issues, grass spots missing in yard which is still messed up and it has been 5 months. The insulation is weak. You can hear conversations throughout the house from upstairs to downstairs. During the WALK-Thru, we were informed by Construction Rep., all issues be taken care of after the closing, it is quite apparent it was not, and just a, if we get you to sign, our job is done. The house is a beautiful plan, but extremely "POORLY" built in construction. The Money that is spent to to purchase what we thought would be our "Dream Home" has been dampen by the issues, and the process in getting the issues corrected. In "Hind-Sight", I almost regret cancelling my Agreement with Taylor Morrison Homes, the construction and warranty of the home was "Elite". Lennar offered more features, but, is it worth the long-term hassels? I guess you would have to turn the old saying around, "You Don't Get What You Pay For" !! ... More

Finishing work was very poor

Cheap material for the price paid. My stairs has crack from the neighbors garage, another wall has a crack from the other neighbors garage.

very average. Lax prep of the new home with dirty windows, floors. Several problems needing to be addressed.

This is my second home from this particular builder. My experience this time around was far most the worst experience. I would not recommend this builder.

Lennar lending was the worst experience I’ve ever had to deal with. Took 5 days past first closing date to actually close. Kept coming up excuses to why they could not get paperwork done. Suggestion to company make one contact point throughtout the whole process to many hands involved with the process definitely Lennar inner communication was none.

The financial team was not aware of the new VA loan process. My processor did not communicate with me until 30 days before closing. I started my home buying process in August of 2022. I did not speak with her until late April early May 2023. I eventually had to use outside lenders and obtain legal counsel to close on my home. This process was horrible.

Sales team are pathetic and from our perspective and the experience we went through they seem to be racist and biased. First we confirmed a home with specific direction for a price, but next day it was allocated for another person saying the other buyer paid them high price. They did not give a chance for us to bid and see the result. Again we had to wait for another home but with a compromise of direction and location as we wanted a home in the community due to friends.

After the walk through nothing has been repaired. We also have not been able to complete the warranty process. Call numbers and no one will return calls. Make sure everything is done before you close or you will be extremely disappointed

It was my worst experience buiding a home . Quality is extremely poor, standards are very low for the premium price that was paid. Most of the workers don't speak English and try to do a quick very poor job . Would not recommend them to anyone

Abysmal experience with builder. Beware. Over 30 items on our punch list were ignored or halfway completed to satisfaction. Should have been a great experience as this was supposed to be my "last" home purchase in this 55 and older community. Instead, it was defeating and super stressful.

The builders completely missed our change request order, had we not found it ourselves by driving by, it would have not been caught u til too late. This happened twice during the build. And don’t even think about trying to use their financing company, most unprofessional and joke of a lending company

The microwave was not installed for our inspector to check it. They installed it last minute and left 2 screws out and unaligned. They didn’t let us blue tape the house and A LOT of the issues we asked to be fixed just weren’t. The construction manager worked by himself to fix those and we had to come back the same day to approve it. Overall, the quality of the home is not good. The construction manager is extremely passive aggressive. During the choosing the exterior colors, the sales representative said the white siding was not available anymore and we had to go with the lien color. Well, guess which color they are using on the new houses? WHITE! Why did she lie to us? People: STAY AWAY FROM LENNAR! ... More

Construction manager Patrick Diiorio has been rude, disrespectful and unresponsive when asked about status or had any concerns. He would respond only at his will and did not bother to even respond at times. He has to learn how to speak with customers, nobody is doing anybody any favors. A lot of the things could’ve been easily resolved with better communication
