Lennar Reviews

Overall the price of the home was affordable, especially for the area. The home was built with builder grade materials so didn't expect anything of quality and I received exactly as expected. Overall the buying process is stressful and they force you into using their mortgage. I do not suggest using their title company. The sales staff are so-so. At first super responsive but as the process moves along they do a horrible job coordinating things and keeping you updated. The walk through person was probably the only bright spot. He did a great job explaining where things are located, how to work the items, and how to file a warranty claim if needed. However items which were repaired left other issues cosmetically in the home which were never repaired and now left up to me to fix. Again, the price of the home for being so centrally located to Dallas was amazing. Even with all these issues I would buy again only because of the price and location but if I was ever looking for a more suburban home I would completely avoid Lennar. ... More

Compared to other home builders, Lennar falls short. Lennar's saying "Everything is Included" should be changed to "Nothing is Included." You want to customize Ethernet Cables in the house? NOPE. Rain Gutters? NOPE. In fact, all the stuff that IS included is the standard stuff you get for free, except it's probably the lowest quality materials/products available. The "quartz" type material used for the countertops is a nightmare to clean. If you spill anything on it, it will absorb it and stain as if it was permanent marker. Why Lennar used this material is beyond me. The cement in the garage is full of cracks and dents. We had huge gaps on the sides of the garage door. These gaps were large enough for small rodents to pass through. After we pointed it out to them, they patched it up, but not after leaving cement splashes all over the drywall. When you purchase a new car, you expect it to be cleaned and washed. This was not the case with Lennar. Our first day there, we had to mop the tile floors TWICE. The floor was full of dirt and dust. It was as if the builders had just finished the house and left. Upstairs, we found white drywall shavings all over the carpet. We even found several nails in the carpet! Imagine if our kids stepped on it!! All over the tile floors, there were white paint drips everywhere. All of this was addressed during our walkthrough. The Lennar rep said that our house will not be this dirty and they will have a clean up crew clean the house prior to move in. NOPE! Did not happen. Two rooms are hotter in temperature compared to the rest of the house. Lennar rep said that this is normal. They also said the 4 inch gap in the garage door was normal too. For airflow, they said. The solar panels and battery is included whether you want it or not. Again, they went with a lowest bidder company with horrible customer service and reviews. Trying to activate the panels and battery is a nightmare. 15 panels and 1 Tesla Battery for $40,000. Rip off! One of the Vents in the bathroom was producing a humming noise. It turned out it was installed incorrectly. One of the LED lights in the bathroom stopped working. I had to replace it. I am not confident that this house was built with quality in mind. I can only imagine how the piping, electrical work, stuff behind the drywall was done. ... More

I have no complaints. For a spec home, my Rosso floor plan has so much character. My experience was second to none. All my issues or concerns were fully addressed. I would absolutely purchase another Lennar home.

Professional, courtesy, efficient from every aspect And a good bang for the buck

I am surprised at how the quality of LENNAR has gone down, at the level of customer service it is a disaster and at the level of construction the people in charge seem not to be qualified for those job positions, such as the Construction manager, it is outrageous that a builder like Lennar is currently in such poor and disappointing circumstances.

My experience in buying my 3 townhomes was really smooth. We love the location.

My experience with Lennar went smooth. At your walk through look closely at everything, turn the water on, look at the glass windows on garage door and even check out the air conditioner. The quality of this home is good but I would change some of the design for instance in master bedroom I would put toilet closer to the bedroom.

The experience was pretty easy and very efficient. Martha and john were great and went above and beyond to get my family in our first home purchase. There were some minor building issues that were addressed but overall great experience. Highly recommend but would also say to any new home buyer make sure a thorough inspection is done

For the price range the builder is charging they did not deliver. AC unit is not large enough for house size. The materials used including light switches, carpet, windows, all millwork, shower fixtures, sink fixtures, dishwasher, stairs, toilets, garage door openers and cabinets are all mid to lower level materials, The landscaping that was used was clearly the cheapest plants and trees available. On the positive side the layout of the house is ideal and the size we were looking for. The customer service to request service during the warranty period has been fantastic. Prompt call backs and response to all issues thus far. The house also includes a Ring system which is nice for peace of mind. Bottom line is that the builder uses mid-level products at a higher cost to maximize their profit and capitalize on their opportunity in this market with so few homes being available. They however do not pass on many standout features in their homes. ... More

I couldn't believe how quickly I was able to close and just move in, being my 1st new home experience it was definitely a great one!

Lennar team were pretty helpful in the home buying process.

Cm was amazing, loan process was amazing. Once youre locked in that’s it! So many things done cheaply, I’d rather pay a few extra thousand and have the quality! First and last time purchasing from Lennar.

The worse home buying experience of my entire life!!

Our sales person mislead us and we received no support from any Lennar leadership. Our initial loan agent seemed to have minimal understanding and provided no guidance. After moving in, our work orders have received very slow response and unprofessional communication. Poor craftsmanship has been shrugged continuously.

I asked my customer representative, Amanda Rich to give me a paint code for the cabinets- Grey- and I am still waiting for the representative to respond to my request. It's been over two weeks. That would give you a picture how the services have been! I am not happy.

The experience when purchasing my new Lenore home was exceptionally easy and the process was very smooth. The ones responsible for helping with the processa were Exceptionally awesome. The quality is pretty good. The workmanship is fair. The landscaping I’d say was poor but other than few minor things here and there the workmanship was average, but total experience was great.

Great buying experience. However after finding things that need to be repaired ,the repair process has been very slow and frustrating. I wish they would be understanding and more efficient (faster) making the minor repairs.

My experience has being unbelievably horrifying. And that’s saying the least. 2nd day moving into the house, a major leak started from a less than par poor job done on the upstairs bathroom. Leak went into the kitchen. Then it went down from there, from broken leading faucet, landscape mishap, broken things everywhere. Just a disappointing experience that’s distasteful.

In the beginning with the walk through things was great. Afterwards a different story. Disappointed with the overall general contractors making sure that the workers did a thorough and complete job on things that needed cleaning up. Will have to do the job myself on touch ups that looked not so clean. Cleaning crew did a halfway job on a very nice new build home look it's best. Had an issue with new stove provided by Lennar and called the customer care personnel never got a follow-up call to see if my issue was resolved. On a positive note. The sales consultant and the financial personnels was fabulous. They made the process simple and stress free. The rest need to take pointers from this part of the team. I am thankful for this blessing; it would have been nice if the other half came through on their promises. ... More

Signed our first home with lot of hopes, but we had a very bad experience with Lennar team (Sales, Mortgage). We had to close the home in APR, unfortunately my father in law was passed away during that time. We had to go to our home country for his final rituals. So we have requested for reschedule the “Final closing”. They have agreed and provided the new date. When we are at “Final closing” table, they have added 1 month penalty of 2800$ for the delay. We were shocked and surprised. Then we and our realtor called the Lennar team sales person and requested explanation of this penalty. But he was arrogant, never listened our version, instead they threatened like anything. If you withdraw now, we won’t give your deposit, he insisted like this. We had no option, either loose 2800$ or 10000$ deposit amount. We had no choise, so proceeded with the closing. Out first home, we thought it would be happy and precious moment in our life. But lennar team ruined this. I do not encourage anyone to buy a property with this company. I can share the Lennar team names who ruined our first home buying experience. ... More

From start to finish, the best home buying experience I have ever had!!

It was a overwhelming process but when the ink dried it was all worth it.

Use better washable paint. People moving into a brand new house don’t want marks on the walls that cannot be washed off or have to paint a freshly painted house.

There are no towel racks or linen closets; don’t understand considering the price we paid. Air conditioning doesn’t seem to work properly; there is no garage door to the back yard and no Windows in the garage doors making the garage space dark. Don’t like being required to have the solar system and it is under powered. The front doors are cheap and the inside paint is cheap. We love our Lennar sales person Daniela Bell though!

I would never recommend anyone to use Lennar. Maybe using another rep but certainly not Sam Reeves. You settlement date was pushed back 4 months with known pre existing issues. Extremely unaccommodating. Said settlement date was pushed back every week. Was offered multiple concessions and given none. Out of 5 homes I’ve purchased, Lennar was BY FAR the worst experience I’ve ever had!!! Steer clear of this builder.
