Lennar Reviews in Raleigh Durham Chapel Hill, NC

When looking for a new home, I specifically looked at homes built by Lennar because of your reputation for quality and design. My home and our neighborhood has been a big disappointment in quality to say the least. Clearly, quantity and time were the priority when building and I have been disappointed since the day I moved in. Crooked walls and windows, paint on the carpets, exposed carpet tacks, etc.

The materials used do not match the price point of the house. It’s across the entire neighborhood. From the house materials, to the inside, to the outside. Here is an example that is almost laughable. The sod they installed was found to be Bermuda grass that was over-seeded with Rye grass It looks awful to say it nicely. They tried to tell us it was because we allowed weeds to grow, multiple landscapers said they were wrong and trying to cover their tracks. They figured it out at some point because the newer houses have lovely Bermuda. Some are more unfortunate than me - their yard is half over-seeded rye and have nice Bermuda. It is laughable (I have to laugh or I’ll cry) I’m surprised they allow people to tour our neighborhood. Another example - the corner cabinet shelves are too big for the space. They literally cannot sit on the holders correctly. The manager “fixed” it by taking a holder out and HITTING the cabinet into place. I can’t move them… Ugh, the paint job around the house. I just can’t keep going - the stories are too long and seem unbelievable. ... More

We have stayed home 3 times for scheduled repairs that nobody showed up for. Never was called to let us know. Since the last time nobody has called to reschedule the repair. Once Lennar receives your money watch out.

Overaall it is ok ok exprience. House has decent quality with no major issues. However, get every issue resovled before you move-in. Once you move-in, they say it's your responsbility. They did a poor job on lawn and now i have one side which is great and other side its just weed with in 3 weeks of move-in. they say it's my reseponsbility to ge the weed treated. I raised the concerned during the delivery about the dead pacthes and they said it's bermuda it will just grow back. it did not and now i have bunch of weed with in the 3 weeks of move-in. they really did a number on my lawn.

Many issues were informed during our last meet up but they were no fixed when we moved in.

Not enough attention to detail Calling about problems no follow through.

Slow responsiveness, challenging process to get issues resolved

Disappointed in end quality and finish materials…

Quality of material , paint and workmanship is very poor. If you touch the wall you will get that in your clothes. Walls are not properly aligned. What you see in the model home is not what you get even after those extra packages. Promised verbally that Fridge with washer and dryer will be included but later on denied. Should have that in writing. You can hear the water going down through the lines. For the money it could be better quality.

Trying to reach service get full mailbox.

This home has so many areas of shoddy workmanship. Ton's of clauking issues scratches on the wood flooring all over the house. Customer service pushes back on everything. I will never buy another Lennar home. everything from the Sales rep to the Construction engineer is only concerned about you giving them a 5 star rating. I have been hounded for months to give 5 star rates.

Overall I would not reccommend Lennar. While I love the majority of my home the two weeks prior to closing were not enjoyable dealing with the sales agent & contractor. They were dismissive and ultimately did not address some of the issues I had within the home.

The sales team at my subdivision was wonderful. However, the building process and the quality of my home is not worth the price point. I had to spend more money to correct cracked floors, a broken truss and framing that included “organic growth” that the builder said wasn’t mold. I have barely been in my home 60days and it’s clear that there was no attention given to detail. The ceilings are already separating from crown molding, walls separating from baseboards, issues pointed out at the final walk-through have reappeared.and window sills separating. In my mind, some of that is to be expected within six months to a year, but less than three months? For the price point, the craftsmanship is disappointing to say the least. ... More

Overall construction is good but there are a few like Landscaping, and final cleaning which were worst. Things that are blue-tapped for repair are also not addressed before closing.

Overall quality is OK, but we had some bad experience with HVAC Furnace keep on troubling after closing and delivered bad quality of Landscaping while closing the home, no proper caring of the Landscaping by Lennar homes, and also observed some electrical ceiling lights design issues, even not addressed by Lennar, Lennar team is responding well before closing, once closed your home, construction team is not that much of responsiveness with home buyer. so i had mixed feeling of home buying experience with Lennar. Thanks!

GE cooktop is one worst appliance, despite of poor reviews , lennar went ahead and installed it, the knobs are made of plastic and it's hazardous. Paint work is poor, weird sounds from ovens and AC filters(ghost sounds).

To many excuses not to fix issues in timely manner. HOA unresponsive. Lawn care is not as promised by sales persons. Work done to minimal standards

Although we enjoy and like the community and neighbors, we were very disappointed with the quality of materials used and workmanship. As an example, we noticed the commode in the guest bathroom was extremely off center. Lennar refused to do anything about it and said it was within their level of tolerance. Quarter round molding in kitchen not finished with a mitered edge. Again, we were told, "that's the way we finish that area". They gave us a piece of molding so we can finish it to our "liking". The value is just not there for the money charged. As for the pressure to buy, Everytime we came to look at the models, the price went up. We came the next day to put down a deposit on home and the price went up $8000. The house was almost finished. The sales person had even told us to sleep on it and come back the next day. Lennar would not honor the price from the previous day. If you build with them be cautious and check out progress daily. ... More

My house was delivered with front lock not work. And the manager was not friendly to work with.

Beware of the quality of work done! Lennar just contract everything to third parties. Quality depends on the mercy of third party contractors workmanship. When you leisurely inspect yourself you will find several issues/problems. I would avoid Lennar given a chance!

The quality of construction is not as expected and the customer care reps/ their contractors tries to escape fixes.

While I enjoy my home, cosmetically, there was a poor job done on many things to cut corners.

Problems every square inch of the house and yard.

The back light in the patio doesn’t work. They never put the shutters that goes above the garage, still sitting in the garage in a box. Looks like the spill the light grey paint on my dark brown floors did a bad clean up and you can tell.

I would call mine a pleasant experience. There were a few things that were great, but overall it is a disappointment.
