Quality is not the standard it’s cost

  • Carol S.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 16, 2024
  • Bend, OR

I like the house but so many things are done to save a penny versus making it a true quality product. The yards are beyond terrible and they could have at least made them a bit usable if even just making the sides nice. They left a ton of garbage in my yard. The fact that they ran laminate flooring only halfway across the room and carpet on the other half is awful. Again just cheaping out of quality. Using plastic instead of metal in all the drawers (why?) why a double seat fiberglass shower? It leaves now room. Again must have been a bargain. A simple shower would have been more useful and ...

Wouldn’t go through Lennar again

  • Providence Village, TX

My home buying process (1st time) was traumatizing. I was so excited at first but Ronnie was a huge bully and Jody was very condescending. Everything was rushed I had no time to think or weigh my options on anything . Ronnie made the experience the worse she was so rude and pushy. Jody would try to be helpful at times but her delivery and tone always seemed ask if I was bothering her. I wanted to back out so bad the only person I had a positive experience with was Taylor. When we did our walk thru she was nice informative and willing to help

Lennar…where the customer comes LAST

While the community is attractive, the builder takes 1000% of the enjoyment of owning a new home away from the buyer. From omitted items which are in the contract, to shoddy construction, to deceptively low HOA fees, Lennar is the champion of bait and switch.

Rocky process but it got done

  • Aishah C.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 16, 2024
  • Fort Worth, TX

Overall experience was a bit rocky, there is a huge lack of communication at times during the process which causes anxiety and unnecessary stress. I didn’t know I would be closing for sure until after 5pm the day before, it was very stressful. Also when I actually picked up my keys, the person who sold me the house was out for paternity leave (so happy for him) but the person there was real impersonal, just handed me the keys and was like good day. I was disappointed because buying a house is a big deal.

Average Quality

We had quite few issues with our build, the workmanship was poor in several areas. . From Garage Flooring to Drywalls. The buying process was also bit clunky. Despite having the "high tech" communication tools, it was still not as smooth as it could have been. Overall. It has been average quality of build and process. Nothing really wow'ed or impressed us. This was our 4th time purchasing New Construction, so are familiar with process. So, our feedback is just "ok" could have been worse. But we have seen much better build and process as well. The quality and after build service/support... ...

Everyone was spot on, answering questions and very kind and knowledgeable. Every time I went to the display home, no matter who was there, they were extremely helpful. The construction manager and young lady who did the final walk through were excellent. I love my home and highly recommend a Lennar home to anyone shopping for a home. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

When I visited the office as expected the quality and service I had before from Lennar. After a very long purchase process, I finally got the house. Since it is a new home, I expected not to have issues. I reported 4 of them and only one has been taken care of. Very sad.

Excellent Homebuying Experience

My first contact was my sales rep. Carlo kept me informed of available homes and found one for me that met all my requirements. It was new construction and in it finishing stages. Lennar mortgage worked with me and I received an excellent mortgage rate. The closing went smoothly. I am very happy with my new home, especially with some "extras" I wasn't expecting, such as the ring camera and doorbell, insect treatment port hole, gas tankless water heater, and usb ports in some of the outlets. I am very happy with the entire experience.

All the paper work is on line. I’m not a “techie” person. Everyone that I worked with was patient and helpful. People that worked with me were always available. The builder got me into my condo before they said they could.

I have had a good experience buying my new condo. The people I worked with were very professional. Everything is on line for your paperwork. I’m not “techie” so I needed someone who was patient and helpful. Except for a few minor things, my condo was ready at my first walk through. I even got to move in earlier than I expected!

Beautiful house overall, some things could be done better

  • Rose P.

Buying from Lennar was an overall good experience. It was difficult at times to get a response which makes me think they are overworked and have heavy loads of work. Everyone that I have come in contact with has been friendly and helpful. There are some things that could have been done better. For one, there should have been address numbers installed in ALL of the front doors, The way that this townhouse was designed makes it confusing for deliveries since the address is only visible from the garage side. Leaving it to the homeowner's expense to install a visible address numbers let alone the ...

We have had a great experience so far. The very beginning with Ethan finding us the location we wanted and the floor plan we didn't know we needed was great. Noah was very efficient and helpful during the loan process as well. We had a water issue right at move in and customer service went out of there way to make sure we were taken care of. We've been here just over 2 months and everything is working well and we love our little home near the beach.

Escrow Was a Problem

I cannot recommend Lennar Title. There were multiple mistakes that I’m glad we noticed and the entire stressful experience culminated with our keys being given to another homeowner. I had to drive his keys to him in order to trade. I’m an ex Realtor and I’ve honestly never seen so many serious mistakes. I can only assume they were understaffed.

Lennar has been very good in responding to our concerns and for the most part, issues have been resolved. It would have been nice to have towel holders an TP holders installed (at very low cost to Lennar) and the grass, other than the sod in the front yard is terrible, just like straw!. Also, a better effort should be made to have the homes built be much more similar to the models shown.

Beautiful homes but not a lot of help

  • Lindsey A.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • October 11, 2024
  • Saratoga Springs, UT

The home that I bought is gorgeous. I am a first time home buyer so I admit I do not know a lot about what to expect when buying a home. The experience of working with my lender was awful. I was signing things that he told me he would fix the mistakes later and then he tried to change my rate after we were locked in. I feel that even after buying my house people acted like I was a nuisance when I would text to get updates of scratched windows (which one of them is still scratched and I have heard nothing). Overall, the Lennar home is beautiful, but the customer service was lacking.

The buying experience is very good from my sales man Stan and sales manager Jennifer. I had a very good morgage officer Aaron who has guided me all through out my buying experience. The construction manager Ryan, is very accommodating and made sure that all issues found during the inspection by my Inspector was addressed. Brandon the Service Manager after move-in, has been very actively working the issues that I have reported and he gets back to you quickly on-site. I appreciate the new app Lennar has put out to make issue reporting easier for everyone. They also have virtual personnel that ...
