Lennar Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

I had a great experience with Lennar. The house was ready when they said it would be.

Will holdup on this for awhile . We were told it will take 2-3 days to fix and then I will write my review . Lennar has a very good reputation and that is the reason we brought in a Lennar community .

My fiancé and I wanted to find the perfect community for our five daughters to grow up in. The woman that referred us online to this community was extremely kind and helpful. She was very professional. We then had an amazing experience with the gentleman in charge of showing us home selections. We chose a beautiful five bedroom home and we are extremely happy. There were a few small issues however those issues were resolved immediately with no hesitation. Thank you very much Lennar employees for making this a great experience for my family.

Overall a great experience and no more snow!!!!

Overall a good experience. Subcontractor attention to detail could be improved.

Great location in Myrtle Beach

Keith has been quite helpful. I am somewhat disappointed the landscape quality and the terrible soil we have to work with. The clay is terrible around the house to work with and create a landscape to be proud of!

Everything was going great until someone from Lennar ordered a 6 ft high vinyl fence to be installed blocking a water view of a beautiful pond after everyone closed on their property. Supposedly the salespeople didn't know that a fence was going up. They sold us the property with a premium for that view. So they took our money then blocked the view with the fence! Someone at Lennar needs to be held responsible and fired. It's a shame because of this situation it has ruined a great home buying experience for many of us. They need to take the fence down!

My site manager was communicative and great to work with. When I put in a request for repairs there was a quick response, tho still waiting for some issues to be fixed. Overall a positive experience.

Make sure when you take your final walk thru that all work was performed to standards. The quality of my home was not to the standards that a Lennar home is known for and I feel that it is because they are rushing to build the homes to get more built quickly.

Purchasing the home we had an excellent experience. Once closing was completed and the punch list needed to be addressed our texts and phone calls are not being returned. The repairs are not being addressed and it’s been almost 60 days.

The purchasing process including using Lennar mortgage was wonderful. My issues began when I closed before a few things were repaired and almost 2 months later I still have issues that haven’t been addressed. My contact was moved before the issues were resolved and customer service has stepped in to try to help. I am super frustrated at the communication post sale. I was not shown how anything worked in my walkthrough nor was I given any information. My precious new construction purchase was much better post sale. I am at this time confused as to who to go to for what and am frustrated that I still have a couple things that should’ve already been taken care of. I love my new home and sales and financing were wonderful. Post sale has been very disappointing. ... More

The Salesperson that sold us this house and our last home was excellent. GC was great goes out of his way to solve problems, but he shouldn’t have to deal with a lot of these issues as the subcontractors should do a better job. The materials and workmanship leave a lot on the table. I have sheet rock issues, walls have waves in them, ceiling where HVAC Vent is has seem cracking . Finish sanding work is horrible. The home was spray painted and many areas weren’t finish sanded but we’re still painted. Didn’t clean the floors or walls before painting and dirt in paint on finished walls. Some of the door moldings have small chunks out of them. Door sills had over spray with dirt in them. Silicone sealing is messy .Concrete floor under bathroom linoleum has a hump in it. Couldn’t hook up dryer vent as piping wasn’t installed right in wall. As purchasing a Smart home I have a big utility box in my Master bedroom . There are wires in the closet that seem to go no where as they are not hook up. As well as a orange tube hanging in it with nothing in it. Why have a huge utility cabinet for a smart home with nothing hookedup in it but 2 cable wires. Toilets were not siliconed to the floor and wound up with ants coming into house from under both toilets. We love are home and the people associated with the sale process and the GC goes above and beyond. But the materials and workmanship quality in this home are not what we expected. Will be contacting warranty rep shortly to try and get some of these issues addressed. ... More

The buying experience was great. The product needs some improvement. Some of this is your design people's issue; 1. Exterior wall mounted light fixture design is too low. Hit your head when you walk out the door, turn to the driveway. I'm only 6'-0" tall. 2. Tankless water heater (aside from it's questionable functioning) is mounted on the opposite side of the house and father to the front away from where the bathrooms are located... so it takes a long time for hot water to get to the usage point. Finishes: Perhaps the manner in which things are done is the problem,. There is no need for quarter-round floor molding if the flooring is installed before the baseboard. The finish work on the baseboard and quarter-round is wretched. There is pain on the flooring almost through out the house because painting the trim was the last thing that was done. The landscaping at the front of the house is horrible for a number of reasons: plant choice and placement. Rain water does not drain away from the house at the back of the house. The area at the juncture of our neighbor's property in the front has a conglomeration of stuff (street light (which has never worked) transformer, two water meters and a six inch plastic pipe stick out of the ground three feet high) that was never finished once the sod was in. Looks like crap. I fully realize labor is tough to get and due to the massive amount of construction going on in the area getting the trades to take care of these things properly is a tough Job. But ... this house was listed at $248K last June. We bought it at $305 with no upgrades in July. I expected a much better job on the finishes for that amount. ... More

Buying the home was easy , I DID NOT expect to have SO MANY issues with a NEW home.

Responsiveness….. they should have given me the option to give them a Zero. NOT including the sales staff, Gregg and ED who are great! I closed on my house in March 2022. I still have A punch list that needs to be completed. I realize they’re busy building new homes but, I would like somebody To communicate with me as to when They are going to Complete my home for which they have been paid. There has been NO RESPONSE After numerous phone calls, texts and emails which have been sent to multiple people with Lennar Homes. Communication….to much to ask? I love my home however, Lennar homes has turned “The American dream” into a disappointing experience! Hey Lennar Homes, let’s talk! ... More

Been in the home for 4 months and they still haven't sent anyone to fix things. I've called and emailed. Back yard still flooding from just rain, wait until we have a hurricane water will be in my house. Lots of issues with this home.

Everyone at Lennat is so nice and made purchasing new construction so easy. We have been kept informed throughout the whole process which has been so important since we are not in the area. It has been a pleasure.

I had a great experience with Lennar. It was a fast close.1 month to the day! I am very happy with the price, quality and Workmanship. Daniel and his team were very responsive and professional . My only issue where I felt stress was in the mortgage process. I was a Realtor in my previous location. I understand that closings are stressful. The issue I had was in the process. I put down a sizable down payment. I have a strong employment and credit history . First I was told I had to pay off my current car loan. Next, a week before closing I was told I had to increase my down payment. The reasoning was pretty text book. I felt like if I had gone to a private mortgage company they would have done a better job advocating for me, not just closing the sale. ... More

For the few issues I have had they have done an excellent job in resolving them.

We bought the Muirwood plan, and love it except for a few minor details. The drawers in the kitchen do not glide smoothly. They are cheap drawer glides. I will need to upgrade them post-closing. The bathroom cabinets that are not directly under a sink in the Master could have been standard cabinets with one drawer and that's typically not much more expensive than the no-drawer, sink base version. Those center cabinets in the Master would have been better if they had at least 3 drawers. IN the tiled areas, we found several places where the grout was not fully cleaned off the tiles by the installers. And the lack of gutters is causing a problem with erosion, also up to me to fix post-closing. The biggest oversight, however is the difference between the size of the refrigerator space and the passage ways to get a fridge in. There is no door large enough for a full depth fridge that occupies the full width of the refrigerator space. Once you get in past the widest door opening (front), you still have to get past the kitchen island. This is a design flaw. Making the island counter just a few inches smaller would both save Lennar money and facilitate getting a full-sized fridge into the kitchen, so that homeowners don't have to look at a large gap in the refrigerator space due to a smaller fridge. Also, sales staff should have on hand literature from FOCUS broadband disclosing the specific plans that are available at that time. For those who telework, homeschool, or are accustomed to having a connected/smart home, a lower bandwidth capability could be a problem. ... More

Did not like not being able make upgrade

A good home for the money.

Lennar has used mediocre materials in the home which reflects the price paid. Response time for getting things fixed is good.

Overall I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase. I was very hesitant buying a new construction build as I have read many reviews stating numerous problems. I've only been in my new home for a little over a month, I've had some issues that the builder addressed quickly. Quality of some construction materials are poor, no doubt to keep build costs at a minimum. That being said, the purchase price would have been higher if better materials were used. Despite the stated issues, I'm still satisfied with my purchase.
