Closing Issues

  • Glenn W.

  • Calabash, NC

The date of my closing was changed by someone and I was not told. If it was not for the individual from Lennar, who was to do the walk through with me a day ahead of time, the closing would not have happened. He became aware when his calendar showed the walkthrough happening after the closure. He was the one that brought it to my attention. I was lucky and my insurance people were able to adjust my insurance dates. It seemed to me that someone dropped the ball, on Lennar's end, and did not even offer an apology. My recommendation to buyers is keep an eye on the calendar and confirm the ...

My salesperson Chris was very helpful and understanding of my needs. Service follow ups have been a bit challenging and require persistence on my part. Tim has been most helpful with service issues. Gerting a response from the HOA has been rather challenging.

First Time Homebuyer Experience

  • Aaron Z.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 16, 2024
  • Huntsville, AL

The process is simple in its entirety. Lennar made it very easy with the buying process. The issue is that there is a lot of language that isn't friendly to first time homebuyers. Everything needs to be kept in writing for anyone buying a home through Lennar. There was a lot of talk about what was agreed and not agreed to but because there wasn't a paper trail from phone calls it made the process difficult. Also Lennar pulls credit far too soon in advance to where when they pull your credit score again before you close your rate will change due to initial credit hits. Communication from the ...

Very disappointed with the construction manager and their staff for failing to remove debris before the recent hurricane (Milton) hit the area. It forced me to leave my home for safety after concerns that concrete blocks would become projectiles. I asked repeatedly for this to occur and nothing was done. Even after they responded by telling me they would remove these items. I continued to message the construction manager directly and received no response. They simply didn’t care! I have photos and text messages saved for Lennar corporate, as they should investigate this further. The overall ...

Great home buying experience

  • Kissimmee, FL

From the beginning to closing and move in, everything went through perfectly. Special thanks to Pedro, a very professional, knowledgeable and helpful person who always demonstrated that he cared about my peace of mind. And the rest of the team involved was very nice, thaks to all of them too. Regarding the quality and finishes on the property I must say that I found some minimal details that requires repair after I moved in which I did not catch during the walk through, I guess I can report it through the warranty portal they provided. But I absolutely love my new home! Thanks so much ...

When doing the pre inspection and the final inspection, check everything. After 45 days in this house I am still finding things that I missed on the inspections. We are still scraping paint and adhesive off the floors. Crooked walls, lumps of sheetrock mud in the corners. Beware of emails that show you how to use your irrigation system and you find out that an irrigation system is not included. Ring doorbell not included

Construction - no personalized service

  • Mark W.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 16, 2024
  • Clermont, FL

We never once met the construction:site manager and was never once asked if I’d like to visit the property during construction, so I just went myself many times on my own. Past homes we have always met and got to know the person responsible for our new home. Lennar- never. The sales associate was great but we had to ask her things that really were not her job because there was no other contact. For price paid more upgrades would have been good- no fridge freezer or washer dryer. After our inspection it took a few visits for them to fix some but not all. No body ever communicated to us ...

Workmanship leaves a lot to be desired, there are many unfinished or poorly finished work all around the house.

  • Adelina I.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 16, 2024
  • Huntley, IL

There are many mistakes on the finished floor, there are spaces between the boards and pieces of the underlying material sticking out between the boards of 5he floors. Also on the floors and thresholds are dents and I was told by the first person assigned to see my problems that I had to wait 60 days before complaining. Another big issue is the fact that we don’t have a mail box yet and of course there is no delivery for packages available to us either. Hope they resolve all of these issues soon

Experience with Lennar Craft Springs

My experience with Lennar Craft Springs is not great. First, I don't believe I received the best value as a veterans. Second, I was rushed through the second walk through the day of the closing. A long crack in the garage floor that that was noted in the first walk-thru remains, food crumbs in the microwave remains, a bedroom wall cover is missing and I did not receive all closing material at closing.

Richard our salesperson was phenomenal. Super informative and attentive to our needs. The new home delivery team was also great. As great as the Lennar team was, we did experience a couple of issues that we uncovered after move-in that are still outstanding. 1. Stove never worked. Contacted Frigidaire and they sent someone out that had to replace a fan motor. It's been over 2 weeks and the parts still have not arrived. 2. End cap on one of the banisters came off. Upon inspection I saw that it wasn't attached properly. Next time I purchase a new home, I'll be a lot more thorough in ...

Disappointed… easy to get in. Sales and mortgage groups were great. What promised was not what I was given. Now fence blown down and it seems they are taking their time to repair. We live on main road and it is super loud and cars have access to our back door. Very scary.

Not customer friendly

  • Srinivas P.

  • Raleigh, NC

I think we had the worst experience with the Lennar team, from sales to concierge. Once you sign the initial contract, the sales team acted as if they don't know us. We tried to contact them a couple of times regarding the change in closing date from what was initially confirmed and there was absolutely no response from them. We left a couple of voicemails but no call backs or anything. Then there's another team called concierge team. This team should be renamed as the legal team as anything you ask them they take screenshots of the contract and send them to you with a note that you agreed to ...

If I Had To Do It All Over Again

  • Asha W.

I would’ve most certainly went with another lender if could redo our first home buying experience. Bad experience from start to finish with one positive experience in the middle. We have a Facebook group that’s specifically associated with our new Lennar online community and to be honest within this review, it’s been mostly shared experiences of mentally exhausted new home owners.

Lennar responded:
Good afternoon Asha,
