New home in Sweetgrass

  • Margaret J.

  • Summerville, SC

Lennar and our realestate agent were very helpful in the purchasing process and we had to buy remotely as we were in Europe. I love the house, the primary bathroom, high ceilings and porches. I am disappointed that we have no amenities or pool nearby. Hoping for mega pool to be finished, Publix and golf cart trails. Trees are a necessity. Desperately need trees on our street. But we love the spacious home and alley fed garage.

Home buying and warranty service

I was skeptical initially as there were lots of negative reviews. I have to admit my experience was nothing short of awesome. Everything they said they would do was done, and any issues that we had were promptly addressed. What really got me was when I asked about the previous negative reviews, they acknowledged them and stated that there were issues especially during the pandemic, but I liked that they didn't deny our try to redirect. My skepticism disappeared. I have been very happy with everything, and it was far better then I expected. Thank you lennar for owning your product and doing ...

AVOID!

Very difficult to get questions answered. Need to figure out myself to deal with several associates to get issues resolved. Spent lots of time to find mail box key. Buying a house should be easy like before dealing with only one agent; all issues got resolved quickly and effectively. ONE STOP SHOPPING makes life much easier . My worst house purchasing. Avoid!

I walked into a home I bought online and when I did see it in person I was not happy, there wasn't any grass in the yard, and inside it's as if it was done by a someone in a rush and was cross-eyed, I woke up to a pile of ants and a few spiders and when I went to talk to someone about it was told that it's my home so I would have to deal with it, and this was after living in there for 3 days, a front driveway that has a crack across three panels that I still have to pay full price for, no back pad that I can grill on, cabinets that hits the walls and flooring that was done without care, ...

Terrible home orientation

  • Seyed S.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • May 23, 2024
  • Anaheim, CA

The mortgage and sales people were great and very helpful, however the home orientation experience was nothing short of horrific. I asked for fixes that to this day have not been implemented (almost 2 months after closing). My home orientation person seemed to be completed ambivalent to our needs, would not respond unless repeatedly contacted. We did a home inspection report and it literally took a month for this guy to finally address the issues (1 still hasn't to this day) after repeated attempts. I called the main call center and asked specifically to be assigned to a different home ...

Sloppy work.

  • Alicia M.

  • Catawba, NC

Throughout the entire home the paint and trim job is terrible!! Extremely sloppy. A brand new home should be perfect. You can see they don’t really care to do their best which was extremely disappointing. 1 month in and we have nails popping out through the dry wall. Every day I find more and more imperfections. And flat paint throughout the entire house is ridiculous. I would have paid more just to have better paint. At the end of the day I chose Lennar homes because it’s the best bang for my buck right now.

1. The drainage systems in the Edge of Auburn are terrible. I feel ripped off on my yard. It could have been avoiding by grading the land. 2. Concrete cracks 3. Weeds and bugs everywhere 4. Land developers are taking forever to install street lights and dog trash bins 5. Hotwire communications is terrible

We got a lot of square footage for the money and a nice-sized lot. Some nice material selections and others not so much. Still waiting for punch list items from the closing (2 months now) to be addressed. Reached out to my contact and haven't heard back. We used to own a Truland Home (before DR Horton bought them). Lennar doesn't come anywhere close to that quality or experience.

Lennar responded:
Good afternoon,

From the day we signed our purchase agreement till closing & beyond, we have been very happy with our experience building with Lennar. The sales manager was wonderful, patient with all our questions, kept us in the loop from digging our homesite till closing. The construction manager was also wonderful, always quick to answer questions, and help with any issues that came up. Our house is beautiful, well built and honestly perfect. We are so glad we chose Lennar, and love our new house.

Would never buy another Lennar home in future

  • Kenneth J.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • May 20, 2024
  • League City, TX

Honestly, I would never recommend nor purchase another Lennar home. The only positive experience was my initial walk thru 2 weeks prior to closing on my home with Lennar associate Beth. From the very start with Lennar, my sales personnel, Jimmy Zaid kicked off the negative experienc but his constant lack of communication, And most importantly empty promise of purchase price. He stated that every model of my home sells for $300,000 and that there were 3 left after looking at a model of one selling that day. Long story short after I finally got in contact with him, he stated the best price he ...

Completing the purchase was very touchy, and communication was not the greatest. Now that we are in the home, we are having to move back out due to the flooring issues, and this has made me question the workmanship in other areas of the house. The Customer Sevice representative has been very helpful, but this process is still less than desirable and leaves doubts.

Lennar responded:
Good afternoon Michael,

I sincerely apologize for the difficulties you've encountered throughout this process. I am glad to hear your Customer Care Rep has been very helpful. I will share your concerns with upper management for their review.

Worst home builder I've ever bought from

Good Value but HOA services not responsive

Lennar provided exceptional service during walk through and made certain that every issue was taken care of. Even during the first month, as we had questions, Jackson quickly answered each one and helped us to make our transition into our new home a great success. As part of the HOA however, Lennar leaves a lot to be desired. We submitted a request almost 25 days ago and Lennar refuses to work on it or to answer questions. In their covenants, they state that if they do not address the issue in 30 days, then the request is deemed as disapproved. So I guess it is time to get an attorney to ...

No pride or care in craftsmanship.

Know that you are investing in a track home - they are cranked out like pancakes - all the same, no choice, therefore there is no pride in the workers who push out the product. The warranty team does the best they can to address the shortcomings of the construction team. The biggest disappointment is the lack of cleanliness of the job site even on the final walk through. Dirt, building materials, nails, garbage, food everywhere. And it continues with completion of the next house and the next. It demonstrates a rush job and no pride in one’s work or product.

This purchase was the worst, and I'm a real estate broker so I should have known better. I sold my home and purchased this to downsize into. Under contract first on the CH townhouse and then sold my house. I paid my buyers to close a little earlier to coincide with the promised date from Lennar. Got two pods and put all of my stuff in storage to be delivered to the townhome after closing. Forwarded my mail. Then I got notice that Lennar was going to be delayed delivering the home. This notice came only a few days before schedule closing and closing was confirmed previously before I ...
