Lennar Reviews

Here’s a more concise version of your review: “My experience with Lennar was mostly positive, from start to finish. The team, especially my loan officer and home concierge, was responsive and helpful, ensuring we closed on time and addressing any questions—even after moving in. However, there were a few minor concerns that impacted my experience. During the initial walkthrough, I was told my home would have tile flooring, but it was completed with laminate instead, which was a disappointment as I had been looking forward to tile. Additionally, there were minor chips on the cabinets that required touchups and the dishwasher installation was not perfect, though functional. Lastly, I felt the faucets could be better matched to the quality of the countertops and sinks. While I’m confident Lennar would have addressed these issues, I didn’t have the bandwidth to request changes after moving in. Overall, I’m grateful for a smooth homebuying experience that exceeded my expectations, despite a few hiccups. ... More

Our salesperson didn’t know what was going on, i had a different person for every step which was annoying, I want one person to deal with through out the process! Terrible company and miss managed badly. Thank goodness i had my own realtor to help deal with all the different people at Lennar. I’ll never buy another Lennar home. Oh nothing is square in the house, I’m having other work done and there having to make adjustments to install things because nothing is square. Cheap track built home

The construction manager was amazing and the home inspector was extremely thorough. The closing process was quick and Lennar has responded quickly to any concerns we’ve had.

I am a first time home buyer. The Lennar team was great in answering my queries and helping me with all the queries with mortgage or closing

My experience with most of their employees was 5 stars. Helpful and attentive with a "call, if you have any questions."

Make sure you do a good home inspection prior to final.

The walls are buildt with only insulated card board and hardi plank.

Workmanship on the home is marginal. I keep saying "is it cost/time effective to do it correct the first time?" that to keep coming back to repair the issue. Also, we've had experiences with warranty matters when we've been told the trade is scheduled to come out, they don't show or communicate.

Some things is better left unsaid. I moved in the home and I'm over it!!!!

Our experience in buying in Summerside was fantastic! This was a very good value for the price!

We had a great experience overall with Lennar at their Candleberry Place development. A lot of the finishes are good quality, with just a few things that were “cheap”. Master shower enclosure is flimsy, the fireplace could have been upgraded beyond builder grade, paint was Sherwin Williams, but flat - should have used eggshell or satin finish for the ability to clean. Love the appliances, counter tops, tub and shower tile, flooring, the garage is a nice size for two cars with room to walk around. The delayed opening of the pool has been disappointing. We are waiting to see if they honor the “walking trail” around the pond that is listed in their brochure. We’ve heard mixed stories as to whether it is going to be completed or not. The home buying experience was great though, so we are happy overall. ... More

Everything was good except my bathroom somebody used it and didn't even bothered cleaning it up, place was very dusty, no shower rod in master bathroom but guest bathroom has one, and some scratch marks on the wall. I guess all in all everything is good.

From sales to move in, everyone was kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. There are two areas of improvement. One is the electronic documents. Many get posted with titles that don't fully make sense to the buyer. Please use plan language rather than acronyms or other wording that a buyer would not understand. Our biggest issue was with the outsourced underwriter. Although Lennar Mortgage was excellent, the underwriting company made the mortgage process painful. For buyers with excellent credit, they went overboard. For example, asking for the source of a $50 deposit and wanting to see a $155 Macy's bill that was paid on time. Every time we supplied all the documents on their list, they came back and asked for more. In all our years of applying for mortgages and refinancing, we never experienced anything this stressful and time consuming. Lennar needs to outsource the underwriting to another company. ... More

I was familiar with lennar homes because family members had purchased homes with lennar. However the buying experience was less than ideal. The selling agent, lennar lenders, title company... none were on one accord. We kept getting conflicting information regarding the closing date, what we needed to close, etc. Once we moved in, we realized that issues that we were told would be fixed before closing had not been addressed. The stove did not work, a piece of the refrigerator was missing that was present during our walk through, the kitchen sink had scratches that were not present during the walk through. The interior paint has splotches and random paint drops on the floor and glue on some of the tiles that we have not been able to clean off the tile, and some cracked tiles. The grout on the floor tiles are different colors, and when it rains the sliding glass door leaks. These are just some of the issues that we have noticed so far. We plan to have a warranty inspection done soon to see what other issues there might be, although I am not holding my breath that the "warranty " will apply to these issues. Also, we were charged for electricity and water bill for the three months prior to closing (refund still pending). Overall, this is not the experience that I was hoping for. The only positive thing is that the neighborhood is gorgeous, well maintained and quiet. Hopefully we will be able to fix the problems with the house without too much of a hit to our budget and eventually make it feel like home. I would recommend checking out the other builders in this community, but would not recommend lennar. ... More

very pleasant home buying experience... all questions answered... minor issues all rapidly responded to and fixed... no major issues

I absolutely love the Aberdeen Community in Foley, AL. By the time this community is finished, I honestly believe my investment will increase with the value of the homes going up in the next 2 years.

I just moved into my new home about 3 weeks ago. I love the neighborhood, and the location is sweet with a view of a city park and ranch land behind me. Jim

I have been in this building for a month and we have an electrical issues with the breaker since the beginning of the closing. They have already changed the breakers 2 times and it has not solved the issue there is still a problem. It hasn't been a month, we have a leak in the sprinkle system which caused us to have a large amount in the water bill. We also just had a problem in the floor lamination. This really frustrates me to the point where I have to fill up a different warranty claim for a different problem every single week.

Lennar did a wonderful job guiding me through the entire homebuying process, mortgage and all. The home has had only a few minor issues which have been resolved. They keep adding to the outside landscaping which is nice. My customer care rep, Mike, is always available. Have no complaints. We didn’t even have to use a realtor for the purchase. I feel like got great value for the property. Happy every evening when I return to my home :)

Excellent job in all areas

At first, everyone we interacted with seemed genuinely focused on our best interests and providing solid support, but that changed. Communication was poor, with each follow-up passing us off to someone else, making it feel like everyone was just going through the motions. During the pre-walk, several issues we raised but some were left unresolved, and we were given an ultimatum: either they address the items and risk delaying the closing, or we accept things as they were. The foreman was possibly the saving grace, addressing some of our concerns within their scope, but dealing with customer service was difficult. We had to push hard just to get an obviously incomplete appliance installation finished, and despite following the process to replace an unhealthy landscaping feature, I was told it wouldn’t be addressed and to check back months later to petition again. ...

Poor workmanship and trying to make quick money

Lennar helped me with the new home of my choice from Sale to closing and after.

My wife and i have had someone out to fix cabinets twice now. The first time the cabinet guy said that the quality of your cabinets was poor and the issue we were having was going to be a continuing thing. (Front face falling off). He fixed them but failed to do it correctly. So 2 weeks later we had another work request. This time before the job was even complete Elijah starts telling my wife that they will not be out to fix them again and there is nothing they will do anymore. Then the repair man discovered that they were not built right to begin with and he has supposedly fixed it now. But i dont appreciate being told that you guys will not fix something again especially since we have a 1 year warranty and it was your builders who screwed up to begin with ... More

Everyone was easy to work with every step of the way.
