Lennar Reviews

This is my second Lennar house. I loved my first one and it was a great overall experience, would still live in that house if the neighborhood stayed good. This was a horrible purchasing experience, especially with escrow, and let me explain we could have paid cash for the house, but we didn't want too. The electrical messes up a lot, tons of work orders to get it right. One can light per room and no fans. Only a few plugs in each room too, seems weird. Dealing with them isn't the easiest, and it all depends on what area you buy in and the people, because like I said, our first Lennar house was a great experience. So you get what you pay for, even though this house is more money and less square feet, 7 years apart too. ... More

I’m very pleased with my purchase of home. It was absolutely amazing experience to work with very knowledgeable and professional people like Rusty from the landing department, Mark from sales. The quality of the product spectacular, we didn’t have any issues on the walk through. Everyone was polite and provided excellent customer service!

Unfortunately day3 of moving in I had a leak that caused the spare room to have to have the carpet removed and the wall. It only has been a month and a half and I still have a dirty makeshift cover in my bedroom for the contractors which is ripped. I had to have multiple attempts for them to figure out the sewage issue. It wasn’t until I left a review that Bayonet the contractor they use actually did something. My next problem is my AC it’s only cooling on one side of the house. However, I had to please the insatiable underwriter when trying to purchase for then to not be able to use my toilet on day 3. Highly unfair. ... More

We had our closing March 10. We drove from Colorado to Texas into a winter vortex with 2 labradors, 2 cats, two cars and a trailer. Got stranded in the blizzard. Our trailer got stuck at a hotel with no rooms. So we slept in the car freezing all night till we could get towed in the morning. We get to Frisco Tx on March 9 stay in a hotel. (Remember we have to get 2 cats and two dogs (one’s a tripod) in the hotels for the past few nights driving. Always have to take an elevator.) Now Lennar only does virtual closing and we have to be out of hotel by 11am. They want the closing at 10am. 10am they could not get their end to work… over an hour trying and now we have to be out of hotel. Now we have to try to find Wifi somewhere to finish the closing. As we leave one of our cats escapes. We try forever to get her back but finally do. McDonald’s and Starbucks nearby have no space for the trailer to park. So we have to keep driving around till we found a place with WiFi and a spot to park trailer. In this city that was a nightmare to find. But we finally find a place get and start to close on the house. During the closing she did say March 11 was marked in some areas. I said it has March 10 then for some reason they changed to March 11 but talked to (won’t mention her name here) and said we needed it back to March 10, so they changed it back. And it was changed since we were online with someone for closing on the 10th with an appointment for the 10th!!! So she changed the few areas that still said 11th. We paid cash for the house. We were set; so we headed to the office to get our keys. We are tired, stressed and just ready for this nightmare to end and get into our home. At the office we are told we can’t get our keys…try again tomorrow. What?? You have our money..we just closed …they said at closing we can go pick up our keys….why?? They say….You are scheduled for the 11th to receive your keys. Come back tomorrow. Just thinking of going through another hotel stay with our pets..almost losing one, carrying the tripod Labrador into the hotel again. I lost it. I was calling everyone. We were out in the car for 5 hours with our two cats and two labs in the heat in front of the office begging for our keys!! We had closing papers, confirmation they had our money..house completely paid for and we could not get our keys!!! Finally after all day waiting in our car in front of the office..sweating..dogs panting …we got our keys. What an awful company to buy from!! We were warned not to buy from Lennar but did not listen. Lesson learned. Listen to your friends and family when they say something is bad!! ... More

Great place to live ,nice neighbors & great neighborhood

The buying experience was very organized. The process was explained well and we were given periodic updates. We actually used the builder’s mortgage company which made the whole process go smoothly. The quality of the craftsmanship leaves a lot to be desired. The sub-contractors don’t show pride in their work. The overall site/home supervisor does not put my effort in presenting a good product. The materials used on construction are definitely builder grade even if you purchase the elite package. For example the towel rods and toilet paper holders are plastic and didn’t match anything else in the bathrooms. In less than a month we have had to submit over 10 work orders to correct issues. We did a number of walk through during the building process but the issues continue to develop. On a positive note, they have addressed the issues. The landscaping was pretty much dead when we closed. Many of the plants had already died and they are not covered under warranty. We have spent hundreds of dollars replacing. The home floor plans are nice but there is absolutely NO changes or additions permitted. We wanted to add a 240v outlet in garage for electric car, and willing to pay for it, but they refused. Wanted to have a higher quality and more efficient HVAC installed but refused. Wanted to add a couple more wall outlets but again it was refused. They simply said you can do these after closing. Why would I pay to have another HVAC system installed after a brand new one removed. Overall I like the area but you need to constantly check on the builder so corners are not cut. Even then don’t expect perfection. This is a high volume builder who focuses on providing homes that just meet basic standards. ... More

Our salesman was were very nice but i felt his hands were tied on virtually everything.

By far the most frustrating experience of a lifetime. All my financial records I submitted somehow disappeared. Buying process was confusing. No loyalty to those that were on the magical list. Withholding of vital information about the lot. Poor workmanship on concrete, paint, and framing. Would NEVER recommend to anyone.

I like the layout of the house but there are a lot of small details here and there. Like pencil marks were left in the kitchen walls. Wall plates were dirty with caulking. Small details that weren’t explained. The celebration and closing day to go over the house seem rushed. The representative was talking really fast and rushing through the check list. The sales representative was rhonda and she answer all my questions she showed me all the house models. And also all the houses that were available.

Disappointed with quality of appliances for a $500K+ home. Wasn’t flagged on the planes flying over the community which should have been disclosed. Setup of the laundry room prevents full use of the space. Bedroom carpeting is not up to the standards of the home—flooring should have been consistent with the rest of the home. Would have liked the name of the paint/colors used.

The purchase experience was very smooth and easy from start to finish. It would not be possible without the great team we worked with. The sales person Sue, was very knowledgeable, professional and patient with us. She was very responsive and helpful during purchase process. The financial team was also great! Victoria was very helpful and pleasant to work with. She was very nice and was always willing to go above and beyond to satisfy the customer. The construction team was also extremely friendly and helpful. Dylan was always there to help when the issues arise. He was patient with us. Every time we would see him on the job site he had a smile on his face and was willing to answer our questions. I wish Lennar used better quality cabinets and carpet. The cabinets are particle board and very weak. The carpet is thin and the nails from tack scribs pock the feet. ... More

Mary, Vincent, Larry, Brittany and Sage made the entire home buying experience easy and enjoyable. They were always available for answering our questions and concerns. Their interactions were timely and pleasant. Thanks to all for what you did to make this possible!!

The selling agent, lacked experience , Kept changes the deal. Negotiating with texting and should stuck with email so I have a track of any changes. Thanks to the manager Penny who was able to take over and close the deal.

Such a great experience from the beginning to the end of the buying process, loan process, settlement and beyond. Everyone was professional, helpful and always responsive with our questions. We’re so happy we purchased with Lennar. Special thanks to Elena, Ed, Miles and Brianna.

The buying process was easy and efficient. The repairs were mostly timely. I still have a few outstanding issues. My biggest concern is that the website states that all of the appliances are included. My neighbors received all of the appliances listed on the website as promised. I did not. I did not receive a washer dryer refrigerator or air conditioning like my neighbors. I have requested information and resolve from customer care, and the regional vice president about this issue and have not been given a response.

Assistance from Team from sales to Project Manager/support staff with issues has been excellent. The quality could improve and the options when buying were limited or removed - maybe due to rushing to get development finished and closed.

We had a very good experience with the purchase of our home! I did feel that the company cut corners on a few details! Bathroom accessories weren’t included, no window frames, all lighting is high hats, no fixtures, flooring, lack of carpeting, no outlets operate with switches to name a few!

All Lennar associates were very professional, helpful and responsive to all questions. Minor detail that needed correcting was taken care of quickly. Closing went smoothly

Everything we were told was not actually true! They stretched the truth about all costs & bills, including insurance. Flood insurance & work that needed to be done before closing! We spent over $1,000 just to fly down for walk through which they said all work would be done before we move it & it was a waste of our time & money!!! Nothing was fixed before we moved in!!!

While the layout works for our needs, there are several issues that reflect a lack of attention to detail and some questionable material choices. One of the bedroom doors is misaligned and does not close properly. Another door swing past their stop and hit the walls, Light switches have been placed behind the door making them inconvenient to reach. We also had to arrange for pest control shortly after moving in due to an ant problem—something we didn’t expect in a newly built home. We were surprised by the builder's decision to install a hybrid water heater, which may be efficient but has mixed reviews. The drawer slides throughout the home are basic, similar to what you'd find in an entry-level apartment, and don’t match the expectations for a new single-family home. Overall, the home is okay, but the quality feels average. These kinds of issues add up and affect the overall experience. Future buyers should take time to look closely at finishes, fixtures, and layout decisions before finalizing their purchase. ... More

The process started out good, we were working with Ali initially. They transferred out case to Heather H. And everything fell apart. She continually called to ask fir documents that were sent 2 to 3 times already, still I was patient, until she contacted us on the day of closing asking for paystubs and w2's. Now keep in mind these documents were sent at the very beginning of this process. I asked her if this was normal to ask for these things on day of closing. In my mind everything would have been in order by then. At this point, they transferred us back to Ali G. We were told we needed 18 thousand more dollars to make this happen ( now we are day after closing). We also needed 6 thousand additional dollars for reserves. Up until this point, I had never heard the word " reserves". We were guaranteed to get that 6 thousand back after closing. I was told to get a wire transfer from a family member and that money would be returned to us about 2 weeks after closing. I borrowed money with the full intent to pay them back immediately. Well, as the days went by, I checked in on this and we were only getting back 3400 of the 6 thousand reserve dollars. Lennar did not hold true to 80% of the lies that they told us. It was a very frustrating and disapointing experience. My husband and I both missed work on 2 different occasions when we were told we were closing. I think I cried more during that time then i ever have, it was awful. After the closing date, we were told that this would not happen if we didn't come up with 24 thousand dollars. I had already bought furniture, had plans to have family down. You can understand how upsetting this would be. I don't know what Heather H. Was doing but she certainly wasn't doing her job. As a senior loan officer for Lennar, I would expect some professionalism and knowledge from her. She left out critical details, lost documents over and over again and basically steered us in the wrong direction the entire time. I really b would not recommend Lennar to anyone I know. That being said, I love the house, it's beautiful. Just go with another mortgage lender, DON'T USE LENNAR. ... More

Excellent experience especially Richard and Fernando help me a lot, Sean and Niyi thank you so much

Courtney and Justin were amazing! From the first time we met Courtney and toured the community we knew this was the place for us! Courtney was kind, patient and extremely accommodating. After finding the perfect house we then were in contact with Justin our loan officer. He made what normally could be a stressful process easy and seamless. He answered every question we had and never made us feel like a bother even after hours. Because of them we were sure this was the best choice and we highly recommend Lennar homes to everyone!

overall quality below industry standard, extremely dishonest . I couldn't ever in good conscience recommend them to anyone.

My house has many cheaply and sloppy done workmanship. Chalking is messy in many areas, clay sand under the appliances in the kitchen, countertops are not the best quality you would expect from the price I paid for the house. There are no towel racks installed in the bathrooms, which should be a standard item in every home purchased. The floor quality is not the best either, the carpet does not have proper padding underneath, a must for getting the best wear out of your carpet. The houses in Blue Ridge Village are being built too fast and good quality is missing.
