Lennar Reviews

The buying experience wasn't bad with Lennar. Communications was good. But I have to say the quality of work done on these homes is not good. Cheap materials and shoddy craftsmanship. They are thrown up as quickly as possible. For the first time home buyer, you can't beat the mortgage deals they are offering but if you can afford better, go elsewhere.

We are happy to live in a house built with professionalism.

Although the buying experience was smooth and easy, upon delivery the 1st day my AC broke making the move in 90’ weather difficult and it took a week to get repaired. Since moving in I’ve had contractor after contractor in my home doing repairs that quite frankly should have been addressed prior to turn over. Broken roof trusses, roof repairs needed, drainage issues poor carpet installation to name a few. My back yard has been a swampy since move in 8 weeks ago because of an issue with the sump pump installation. Overall I like my home but am disappointed with all of the complications, they definitely need better quality control, as the contractors do subpar work, and the builder clearly just wants to get the house delivered so they get there money. I paid fair market value for a home that has had me stuck waiting for repairs every week since I moved in, and I still have many more to go. If you buy a Lennar home make sure you do your own home inspection, they clearly don’t monitor construction well. After the first year those repairs will fall on your wallet, and absorb a lot of time waiting for repairs ... More

Lennar makes it easy to buy a home!

Everything went good like it supposed to be

Had a great buying experience. Walked through every step with little effort. It was painless.

If you're considering buying a home from Lennar, let me offer you a word of caution: proceed with eyes wide open. Lennar is not a company focused on the customer—they are entirely built around maximizing shareholder profits, even if it comes at the direct expense of the buyer’s experience and satisfaction. From the outset, it becomes painfully clear that Lennar refuses to accommodate even the smallest request to substitute or add materials. Need a minor deviation from their cookie-cutter setup? Forget it. Any suggestion, no matter how reasonable, is met with a flat "no." Why? Because customization doesn’t serve their bottom line. It’s cheaper and faster for them to mass-produce homes and leave the burden of upgrades, repairs, or adjustments entirely on the homeowner. Their one-size-fits-all approach isn’t about quality or service—it’s about efficiency, speed, and profit. Lennar’s true customer isn’t you—it’s the boardroom. The executives, the shareholders, the quarterly earnings reports—that is who they answer to. Once they’ve squeezed every last dollar from a development, they pack up and move on to the next unsuspecting community. Let’s talk about their HOA. Calling it a "dictatorship" would almost be generous. Everything is on their timeline, not yours. Want to install a simple fence to keep your children or pets safe? You could be waiting months for “approval.” Instead of streamlining the process by coordinating fencing options pre-move-in (as any thoughtful developer might), Lennar stalls and delays, wielding unnecessary control over what you can and can’t do with your own property. The entire experience reeks of corporate indifference and bureaucratic arrogance. You are not treated as a valued homeowner—you are a transaction, a line item, and a means to an end. So before signing on the dotted line, remember what you’re walking into: a sprawling, profit-driven machine that views neighborhoods as revenue streams and buyers as disposable. Choose wisely. ...

They made it very easy

Love the home for the price

Not transparent with loan costs and unfair treatment. No response to the feedback

This was a simple process from start to finish!

The buying process went fast and the Lennar craftsmanship is well known for its quality for example Moen brand bathroom faucets, porcelain tiles and quality cabinets, Lennar homes offer more in their built homes versus the competition when comes to price and good quality products. I would like to mention Spencer for his outstanding customer service and Chris from Lennar mortgage for his expertise and Linda also Michelle from Lennar title for their hard work.

Fue una experiencia muy gratificante para mi familia todo fluyó muy bien , me encontré con personas maravillosas dispuestas a ayudarme , me ayudaron profesionales increíbles a construir mis sueños

It's hard to read all of these reviews be excited about Lennar, but I thought to provide my honest feedback. First off, no home is perfect, even if new. If you expect that, then the home sale price should have two commas in it, not one. That said, I have had the same cosmetic issues, minor delays, and general warranty concerns others have outlined. I have had nothing but a positive experience with the group that built our home and would like to publicly thank Teresa and John for his quick responses and service.

The overall experience with Lennar was good, especially from the beginning with sales. The sales team was great, straightforward and professional. The Lennar mortgage team was also great to work with but I will say they treated someone else I know who purchased a first home in the beginner series with less concern and value thank they did us with a higher priced home. They should be no less important. As far as the home itself goes, I believe it might be lacking in quality materials and workmanship. Corners seem to have been cut to save money. We have only been in our house a month and a half and already have had two significant warranty issues - one due to poor workmanship and it took 4 visits and 3 weeks to correct. Communication on that was terrible as Lennar couldn’t seem to figure out which sub should address and correct the problem. The second issue seems to be a manufacturer defect and possibly low quality materials but it poses a safety hazard to my family and needs to be corrected ASAP. So far, I am still waiting. I am also coming from a house that was very solidly built with a high degree of workmanship and high quality materials so it’s hard not to compare. I do love the floor plan we chose with Lennar. It could not be more perfect . I do hope my home will prove itself to be of good quality over the years and I hope Lennar proves themselves to be a quality builder in the long run. ... More

The home buying experience needs to change. It's very stressful and you are not guaranteed that you will get the house based on your offer as you only get one chance. It's a single offer with no chance to counter offer. Lennar needs to allow counter offers. The home itself, for over $1M, is average. Material selections are average at best. Vinyl flooring and not hardwood. The same small MDF trim used for baseboards and window trims. Bath fixtures are Moen which are nearly bottom grade quality fixtures. Windows are only trimmed out downstairs with sheetrock wrap upstairs (1960's). Millwork quality average with mitered corners uneven. Mid-grade cabinets with fixed shelves that don't roll out for pots and pans, HVAC that is in the ceiling downstairs and floor upstairs to save costs (heat rises so ceiling vents are useless in hot weather for cooling) along with the use of an HVAC system that doesn't have smart home integration. The paint that was left for touchup doesn't match what was used for the house and paint peels off the walls likely due to painting over dusty walls. Floors squeak. Guest shower is a fiberglass shower/tub unit with no door and requires a shower curtain. Overall, corners are cut everywhere that can be and still pass code. ... More

Let me start but saying I love my house and location! The sales agent was great and very friendly! The mortgage side is 10 out of 10! Very easy, responsive and very nice. The construction team is horrible. Late to every meeting if they showed up at all. Didn’t fix all the items on my pre closing walk. It was cosmetic but still wasn’t fixed. The house closed without grass. It’s been 45 days since closing and still do not have grass. Mind you it has rained some but they do not respond to canceled start dates or follow up. I text them with no response. I love my house and don’t regret a thing but constriction team has to go! I don’t mean the actual builder guys because they seem to be good! I mean the supervisors. ...

First I was told bu 2 people home would be cleaned when I got here, it was not cleaned and we had to get here at 6 AM to clean before movers came at 8. Then the hot water shutoff broke off, looked like had been broke and glued back together was told plumber called twice no one ever showed up for several weeks, HVAC was out for a week motor broke in attic. HVAC people put a window unit in, can't imagine my electric bill is going to be. Threhold for front door had shims, wood cracked was pointed out during inspection never fixed when asked was told it was done and it was not. I closed from another state 5/22, told everyone I couldn't be here until 6/7. Got here all the lights on and AC set at 72. Again going to be on my electric bill. The only person that really helped me was the local sales guy Darrell, He told me how to use the app to report things, went out of his way to find out things for me and I think he is fairly new. After using the app to report issues things started getting done after several weeks, almost a month of trying.I would hope Lennar if anything during my bad experience would contribute to electric bill since AC went out, windown unit running non stop tripping circuits and leaving lights and AC running for 17 days prior to me getting here. My overall experience is not good, was hounded to take mortgage, sell me home owners insurance relentlessly was even sent 74 page mortgage papers to my home. It went to the burn pile. Sent email to stop harrassing me, was told it was system generated isssue. Funny how you get hounded to take mortgage, insurance and when you need something nothing happens for weeks. Very disappointed in my whole experience, work all your life to retire and own a new home then have to deal wih all these issues. Darrell local sales guy ought to be commended at least he tried to help everytime we asked him for anything. If could do it all again would not purchase from Lennar. ... More

Everyone at Lennar was very attentive to our questions and concerns throughout the construction and purchasing of our new home.

Stephanie and Jim are thorough and made this process so smooth and rewarding!! I went with the best lender!! Thank you for everything!! I love my home!!

House was built on time and was of much better quality than my previous Lennar home in Lakewood Ranch. All of the warranty work has been handled very professionally by Josh. .

Was told they were going to come and do a final cleaning and never happened when sod was laid they put a gash in the siding of the house, lots of glue left on floor as well as paint drops throughout the home both front and back doors not sealed with weather stripping fully there for you can see daylight at bottom of doors.

Melissa, Meredith, Annette, Bianca, Luke. The entire team was phenomenal. They made everything so easy for me. I did not have any problems whatsoever. I am a first time buyer and I pray that everyone could have the same service that these people provided.

(2/5) Stars Great Price, But Regret Rushing — Disappointed with Warranty Support I bought my Lennar home thinking I got a great deal, and at first, I was really happy. The sales team and loan officers were excellent—professional, helpful, and made the buying process smooth. But once I moved in, the issues started. I officially got my keys on May 21, and by July 1, I already had a plumbing problem. I was told the repair would happen on July 7, and here we are—nothing has happened. The warranty department has been disappointing, I’d rate them a 2 out of 5 at best. The plumbing company Lennar works with hasn’t followed through, and it’s frustrating as a new homeowner to feel ignored. It’s a shame because I was even considering buying another Lennar home for my son—but after this experience, I’ll be looking elsewhere. Lennar needs to take homeowners seriously after the sale too—not just during. ... More

Lennar was very hands on in helping us get into our place
