Buying process was quick and reasonable. Everyone before purchase was friendly and informative but it was a complete mess afterwards with no one to communicate with when issues arose.

Very Disappointed

  • Celeste G.

  • Smyrna, DE

The buying experience was fine. The actual home is very disappointing. We have been living in the community for two months and have had to submit seven different requests for repairs (on a new home)! The repair request process is not very efficient. You submit the request which include pictures of the issue, they send an email for you to schedule a virtual visit (which is a waste of time because you already sent photos of the issue). Our last issue was or is very serious . During a bad storm the house develops a leek. Water was dripping onto the bed my 92 year old parents were sleeping in ...

Poor quality, constant issues, ghosted by Lennar when it comes to fixing issues. Everything is downplayed and not fixed. Horrible experience with every department in the process

Our sales rep was very communicative and responsive and when trouble arose she took the reins and jumped in to help us. If it were not for our sales rep Hailey, I would have walked from the deal. The home buying concierge assigned to us was so bad—she was non-responsive, didn’t return calls or emails. She was incorrectly relaying information from the project manager to me and probably from me to him. She also gave misinformation that confused and frustrated me. Overall, I would probably choose Lennar again but I would shop around with other builders as well to compare.

Terrible warranty service

  • Troutman, NC

I love our new home but when it comes to Lennar taking care of simple issues that were clearly caused by them don’t expect much after closing. McKenna who is the Lennar employee responsible for processing the warranty repair’s is rude and unprofessional. For example she disagreed with an issue stating that it’s cosmetic and after speaking to her on the phone she AGREED TO COME OUT AND LOOK AT IT IN PERSON BUT STATED SHE WAS STILL GOING TO DENY IT even before seeing it in person. McKenna is well known throughout the neighborhood as being rude when dealing with her. I caution anyone who is ...

Quick salesmen

At first Lennar seems like a great company to work with. That quickly disappears once they have you under contract. They expect everything under the sun from you at a moments notice. Yet, when you have questions or concerns they take their sweet time. There were a lot of small issues we found during our new home orientation. They had 8 days to fix them yet most of them were “fixed” during the final walkthrough. We are mostly happy with our home but I would not recommend Lennar to anyone. It was a stressful experience.

Lennar Home Buying/Quality Experience

  • Wake Forest, NC

Overall quality is OK, but we had some bad experience with HVAC Furnace keep on troubling after closing and delivered bad quality of Landscaping while closing the home, no proper caring of the Landscaping by Lennar homes, and also observed some electrical ceiling lights design issues, even not addressed by Lennar, Lennar team is responding well before closing, once closed your home, construction team is not that much of responsiveness with home buyer. so i had mixed feeling of home buying experience with Lennar. Thanks!

New home purchase 6/28

  • League City, TX

John did not take my third party inspection report seriously. He brushed everything off and basically told me that this was not going to be a "perfect" house. Even for a new build, this house had a ridiculous number of imperfections and I was rushed into closing. Even after moving in, I have submitted over 4 warranty claims, and the Lennar representative just tells me that everything is not covered. I have a garage door that doesn't close, an A/C unit with a bad filter after less that 60-days of move in, and so many more issues. Not pleased with Lennar cutting corners and not taking customer ...

Terrible workmanship. A lot of switcheroos.

  • Julie W.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 26, 2024
  • Westfield, IN

The person who sold us the home told us many false things to make the sale. There are a lot of things that were changed out during the process to a lower quality. However, our house price did not change. The quality is awful and we have had to spend the first 60 days reaching out to Airtron, GE, Lennar, etc. to get things fixed. Not very enjoyable when you’re trying to move into a house and unpack boxes. The sad thing is we have plenty more, that will be done at the 12 month mark. This is the third house that we have built and has been by far our worst experience.

The entire process was extremely stressful, specially the financing department!!

  • Anonymous
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • Summerville, SC

I will highly advise any new buyer to get their own finance, Lennar finance department is a joke!! We almost walked towards the end because they couldn’t get on the same page between their own company! Building department is ok, I definitely suggest visiting your property during construction as much possible! We bought from out of town and I wish I would’ve been able to walk the property at least biweekly, could’ve save a lot of headaches and problems I now have to deal with, bad tile cuts and grout, lots of drywall issues and a lot of trim not finished properly among other things!

Linnar was easy to work with and responded quickly to all my questions. It was quick and easy to upload the documents Linnar needed even for someone not tech savvy! All issues discovered from the home inspections were corrected quickly and to my satisfaction. Linnar offered a great one stop shop for buying my home and offering mortgage and insurance companies. I am totally satisfied with Linnar’s home buying experience.

My House Review after 2 months

  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 25, 2024
  • Princeton, TX

Fast process of buying, adjusting of price and accessibility was very convenient. Till now, no mayor issues with the house quality/material used to build. Only thing I will highly suggest or highlight is for Lennar to keep an eye on the labor quality. It’s was obvious to see that the work/building crew did some mediocre job. Some electric wires were crossed and wrong installed. Fence was not completely closed in, shower drainage cover was glued to the floor instead screwed.

Disappointing home buyer experience.

  • McKinney, TX

Buying a home is one of the largest purchase an average person makes in their lives. Unfortunatley for me, my experience with the sales agent I was assigned was not positive. I found the sales agent misleading at times, very pushy. Home buyers concierge's primary job is to communicate, update the customer, which she hardly did. had a hard time getting a response from her. Mortgage department cant give you a final number until the day of closing which I found surprising. Workmanship and quality is supbar. I already have cracks on the trim and corner of the wall. I picked a date suggested ...

My first contact with Lennar was not good. I was supposed to meet a representative at a model house, I arrived ands she was not there. I tried to contact her and she said she was sending someone to meet me. I left since she was deceptive about the whole thing. If it were not for the Real Estate agent I used, I would not have bought a house from them. Their customer service is worse than the DMV. IF you email a question, they do not respond. You have to blast email them and everyone else involved in the process to get a response. The house is not badly constructed, they will use the cheapest ...
