I already experienced a new home before but this one was so much easier. Everything is done for you but the cooking. Wouldn’t that be nice! If something needs fixing, they are on it. I love my new home. Thank you

My process was little stressful at first due to being a first time buyer. I am very excited that they got me a lower apr rate than my other lenders. The process with everyone was very helpful and great. They all worked hard to help me with my first home!! I am excited to be a new homeowner and live in a great area.

Lennar bordered on Mortgage fraud

  • Anonymous
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • Otsego, MN

Individuals would approve, then reject, then approve and ultimately wouldn't approve us non-contingent. I believe they dangled the $15k incentive to use Lennar mortgage to bait us in, then didn't approve us. A 3rd party mortgage company approved us and they have to play by the same rules as Lennar. Lennar has a problem that in my opinion is fraudulent.

Lennar responded:
We're truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you faced with our mortgage company. We hope, despite that experience, you're now enjoying your new home and making it your own! If there are any general questions or warrantable issues, please do not hesitate to contact us by submitting a warranty request online through your Lennar Account.

New build & purchase with golf included

  • Ave Maria, FL

The builder Lennar was very good about extending my closing date while I negotiated financing. It was frustrating that some of the finishes previously provided in this model such as crown moulding & a couple of other items, are no longer provided so I had to find trades to complete the work at my additional expense. Fast response when I identified items that were deficient such as screws missing on electrical & plumbing plates, & terrible odour coming from hot water taps, & a few screens with rips in them. Overall, my new home is lovely & I am looking forward to moving in this fall when I ...

Last resort

  • Verified Homebuyer
  • June 23, 2024
  • Saint Hedwig, TX

So far the only good thing is ,it was the cheapest home that was available. The longer we live here the more areas we see where the builders cut corners, did quick patch jobs or even tried to hide the errors made rather than fix them. if you have an issue there's a whole lengthy process to get it resolved. We were made promises that were not kept, discovered trash that had been poured over with concrete because they were too lazy to pick up after themselves. All in all, they did get us into a home quickly but if we were to do it again I would have taken my time and checked every little thing ...

Lennar responded:
Good morning Nicholas,

Thank you for bringing the issues you found at your new home and the resolution delays to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. Your concerns have been shared with upper management for review and to ensure a more timely resolution process moving forward.

Very Bad

  • Latoya M.

  • Dallas, TX

Hi, my experience with Lenora. It was very fast. I moved in my house less than 30 days. I had to break my lease so I owe the apartments moving into the house. It was a lot of unexpected cost that I didn’t know about was not aware of and nobody told me about it I have been living in my House Two months and I still cannot get my water in my name because the house is not up to cold. It’s no communication. I have tried several people emails. Nobody’s complying.

Lennar responded:
Good morning Latoya,

Thank you for your review. We sincerely apologize that your home-buying experience fell short of your expectations. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and I've already shared your concerns with upper management for their review. We're committed to improving the home-buying process, and your input will help us achieve that.

I heard that buying a house was a stressful process but, with Lennar it was easy and I was in good hands since the first day, Mrs. De Luna helped us to choose the house we wanted, my lender officer Kim and her team were outstanding and always available for any questions or concerns. Mr. Wes always had the information we needed. Our closing date was less than a month since we saw the first house. The best buying experience! They take care of the closing costs, insurance, etc., even when we went to USPS they were waiting for me with the mail box keys. I definitely recommend Lennar for first ...

First things first - love my home. It meets all my needs and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Lennar delivered what they promised, on time. The reason I took off couple of stars is because of response delays during the home buying process. There were 3+weeks that both my real estate agent and I struggled to get answers and an updated closing estimate from Lennar. On the positive side, once they started working with me (last week before closing), the answers and updates happened quickly and efficiently. For everything else, Lennar did what they said they will do, when they ...

Home buying experience was challenging. Bait and switch was a tactic employed by sales manager at our site. In the end we purchased a house with most of options we desired. We settled much earlier than planned and made things stressful. Comments made by sales manager (not site sales rep) were unprofessional and insulting. We are happy with our home - but…

While we love the new house there are some downsides. Where are the knobs for bathrooms and kitchen cabinets ....... where are the towel racks in bathrooms ..... why are there false drawers in the bathrooms with no space to put a tooth brush? Hey, thanks for the toilet paper holders! This equipment should be Standard. You have Cheap Charlied these pricey homes.

Poor Workmanship/Poor Customer Service

Lennar homes are basic. Carpet, linoleum, paint are poor quality. Representatives provide assurance that if anything is wrong, they will take care of it, but when you enter a warranty claim they deny. Items that are clearly builder mistakes do not get fixed. All Lennar reps - Mortgage - Escrow - Builder tell you it is "not their job" to do something. Very poor service in all departments.

First house I tried to buy was in Seguin, Texas. My closing date was postponed and then on the day of new closing date I was told "your husband has to co-sign." One whole month they couldnt't figure out that my loan was a liability. I was extremely disappointed. They took so many documents but in the end gave me no choice, tried to rush me, gave me advice on cosigning when it's a personal decision and they invaded that personal space, no one asked them for their opinion on co signing part. So, fast forwad in to the new year of 2024, my work took me to Houston, So I started looking for ...
