Lennar Reviews in Raleigh Durham Chapel Hill, NC

I am extremely disappointed. At the beginning Lennar offers a paradise but after you buy from Lennar, they treat the buyer like an ignorant or even worst, they bully the clients.. Lennar products are of a terrible quality, and they don't do the repairs or acknowledge their mistake. Lennar uses the strategy of the bureaucrats, in where no one is responsible and nothing gets done. In a word Lennar is a bully company.

Very poor workmanship and quality of materials. Poor response times. Still waiting for some items in home to be fixed. Would NOT recommend Lennar homes. Very disappointed and wished I had gone elsewhere to buy.

get in writing all things they will do for your home and lot if you pay extra lot price

Terrible quality and refusal to address issues. Construction manager is unorganized and dishonest. Closing never takes place on time; unnecessary delays due to poor management. Builder cuts corners and tries to force you to accept poor quality work. Would never recommend Lennar. Neighborhood is nice with great people, but the build was not a good experience.

I could write pages about how awful my experience has been, but to summarize things….I wish I would have never brought a house with this builder or in this neighborhood.

Build cheaper, build more, and charge twice what you would have charged three years ago. THAT’S the Lennar way.

Worst customer service! No one cares after the purchase of the home. I created a service request ticket and it was closed without any communication.

Worst experience with the builder starts from sales team till handover team. They behave like monark. Very rude. Not ready to accept any of our requests. Agreement is mostly from their side (one side ). they can change what ever they want.

From signing the contract to requesting service for items covered under builder warranty has been a horrible experience. The builder is using real state agents to other bidding, who have no idea about the building process or the established standards. Everything in the construction process is contracted out to third parties that hire workers at minimum wage without any construction experience. The quality of work and finishing is awful. Their only purpose is to quickly proceed from contract to closing. Do not waste your time, money, or energy.

One of the manager had sarcastic behavior. totally frustrated with buying process. There are lots of scenarios which describes the builder behaviour.

I am rating because of the issues I faced after I moved in. I booked remotely house in Devon Square and during inspection we showed multiple things but they didn’t fix even after months of move and even after we raised multiple requests. On top of this they also charged me $200 for inspection I dont know what that was for. Also I got the electricity bill dates before the closing date and they are asking me to pay. What ridiculous this is…

I bought my 1st house in 2018 and that was from Lennar Construction. We liked a lot and that quality of construction and service made us to go again with Lennar for my 2nd house too. From the the beginning till closing, started facing issues both from Sales and Construction Manager (CM) and they were very arrogant in not responding in addressing our concerns/clarifications. CM gave us false promises and made us hurry during final walkthrough and promised in addressing few concerns but never responded later. Not only me, but even my neighbors are also victims in facing the similar issues. And this will definitely let Lennar down to move from a premium builder grade to lower grade and Lennar is not going to be a 1st choice for home buyers. ... More

I don't want to give a single star to Lennar. My home buying experience with Lennar is my worst and biggest mistake of my life and i'll not recommend to my friends and colleagues to buy a home specifically from Lennar.

Will not recommend Lennar to anyone

Worst mistake ever: - Windows that don’t work - Cracks in garage and wall damage behind gutter - Missing downspout on other side of driveway - flimsy doors and locks - Downspout that wasn’t installed in correct location with no splash block - Screwed up sidewalk with cracks - Outdoor spigot that seems to have an internal leak - Mystery water marks on exterior concrete wall -Nail pops - Mystery blue ink on shower floor - non-working sprinklers - water tank in attic, heater in attic (why such an inaccessible location?) -non-existent customer service and banker’s hours - no mail boxes at house - only at the stupid useless clubhouse. Why only 1 location not like four?? - builder failed to disclose they are building a 900 unit apartment building less a half block down my tiny side street?!?!?! - development might be built across street by them too. - no irrigation water system -$2 sprinklers are NOT an irrigation system. - Gas everything? Why such a poor environmental choice? - Dead trees - my neighbor’s tree is dead and it’s not been replaced - crappy appliances ... More

Our family's experience with Lennar, unfortunately, has been TERRIBLE. Lennar has completely ridden a hot market wave to take advantage of buyers and gotten away with poor quality finishing and broken promises. The home buying experience. We bought a home in Apex that was completed and closed almost 6 months after original closing date. When talking to the sales team given all the implications this delay had on our family, instead of listening, acknowledging impact of the delay, they took cero responsibility and blamed suppliers for their broken commitments. And yes, we understand the supply chain crisis impacted everyone, but knowing this was a critical time, with 2 years of pandemic to have adjusted to the crisis, Lennar did very little to stay ahead of the challenges. Very poor planning and professionalism to handle complexity. In our convo with the sales manager (John), a guy completely clueless, after the convo I really kept asking my wife how is he even qualified for the job. John agreed to follow up on a few points we had sincerely expected they could support, and instead of responding to these points on time how you would expect, almost a month later he responds to them, after multiple follow ups, and his response practically quotes the contract and how they are in no obligation to meet our request. He was right, but my point is, they didn't even try, ignoring and maybe even believing they had no responsibility. clueless. And this is not all, and probably an error we committed, but still something Lennar Sales team should have advised on. There is a sight triangle that goes through our property. As a first time buyer I didn't even know this was a thing, but the issue was, it was never really advised. Their sales team, could have taken a moment to inform this was the case and its implications, but it was completely omitted from their sales pitch. Closing At closing, the home was far from ready. They made a list of promises of things to fix. And it's been 2 months now and the list has not been completed. We've had to contest everything, because they don't show a genuine interest in helping and completing the job. If there was anything agreed upon by their construction manager, be assured that the post-sales team doesn't really care. They'll want you to have evidence because their word doesn't really count. Of course we should have known this, and even with evidence it's been challenging to get them to accept responsibility over their commitments. The home We've been shocked by the poor quality in terms of finishing for a single family home in Apex done by Lennar. They really don't care and expect their customers to simply be ok with it because the market favors the builder. Going up the stairs in our home, if you see underneath the rail, which you can if you are going up the stairs, the job seems done by children that are playing arts and crafts and not by professionals. The holes done for the rails are all uneven, no consistency, really done favoring speed vs a job well done. I've sent them pictures of how it should be and they said they could not do it that way, so you can't do it right? Overall, having the opportunity again, or hypothetically turning back time, I would never buy a house with Lennar. ... More

I would never buy from Lennar Again, horrible experience especially the Customer Service! No quality whats so ever.

House was not finished when we closed My contact person didn't even bother to contact me. He was on vacation. They did come back after we moved it but there are still many thing that could have been a lot better like all of the digs and dents in the moding and trim and window sills. I also am trying to figure out the whole smarh home thing and get the house balance for tempeuater. It is taking over a week for customer care to call back and they call the wrong number. I don't even know how to get help now.

Quality is questionable.They are charging huge money for average or less than average quality. The appraisal of the home is another big issue.If you are unlucky you are ending up paying 50k more for exactly same house booked on exact same day!!All in all no transparency!

We are very disappointed with the lack of customer service we have encountered to date, as well as the quality of materials and craftsmanship of our home given the price we paid for it. Throughout the building process, we have pointed out several issues that needed to be addressed in a timely manner so as to prevent future delays, hassles and disruptions. The items were not taken care of then and now we are dealing with the hassle of taking care of them through warranty. It's very sad that the pandemic and "shortage of materials" were used as an excuse to coerce us to continue on with the buying process and not delay closing until the identified items mentioned above were properly corrected. Now it is the typical finger pointing and blame game. ... More

The quality of the home appears to be great on the surface, however after less than 2 months in the home, things started to fall apart. Cracks started to appear on the walls and ceilings. We can also see all of the lines coming from wood planks in the ceiling and on the walls. They also didnt sod the entire backyard and put pine straw in the non-sodded area, stating that "grass will have trouble growing there". However, we hired a landscaper and was told differently. The tubs and showers had scratches and yellow paint spots all over them. It looks like they used the cheapest materials that they could get away with (such as paint, sheet rock, and carpet) for a home that was purchased for $363,000. ... More

I have nothing but poor things to say about Lennar and I would tell people to NEVER purchase a Lennar home. The quality of workmanship and Material is below grade the house is way overpriced for the quality and products used in the home. There is zero trustworthiness, they have the worst sales people and construction people and they don't respond at all to any issues during the building process. They deserve much less than a 1.

I wouldn’t recommend this builder.

I purchased my home as is with 3 months left on the structural warranty but Lennar has denied every warranty claim. Bent metal roofing, missing chaulking around windows and siding, and squeeky subfloors in a 2 year old home are the unsatisfactory workmanship that Lennar refused to repair.
