New Construction Made Easy

  • Maiden, NC

From the initial sales appointment, confirming options, coordinating with my third party inspections, to closing on the home, the service from Lennar exceeded expectations. My construction manager assigned was responsive and sent weekly videos of the construction process which made me feel like I didn’t have to go onsite all the time to check progress.

I really enjoyed the sales process, David was a total pro and was really responsive to all questions and helped us understand the options and features with each house we looked at. I felt like he was very honest with his advice and opinions and established and maintained a very professional and friendly demeanor with us throughout the process. The Lennar Mortgage experience was fairly painless as well with the exception of the website for uploading documents and such. The IT on the Lennar website needs attention, it doesn't work well and is not user friendly. My specific issue was it would ...

Terrible workmanship and material, horrible sales experience

  • Stefan N.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • April 16, 2024
  • Rosenberg, TX

They cut corners on everything. Material, especially doors are incredibly cheap. The new house even looks like it's been lived in by other people for months. It's was dirty with lots of scratches when we took possession. We have all the photographs for evidence. The salespeople were tricky, sneaky, unwilling to help, and don't return calls most of the time. About the only tiny bright spot are the warranty/Lennar Care people who help address issues with the house. And there were tons of issues, probably more than 2 dozens. Will try to avoid Lennar in the future at all costs.

Lennar responded:
Hi Stefan, we apologize for the experience you went through when purchasing your home. We also want to apologize for the communication issues that you faced. We will use your feedback to improve. If you need anything else with your home, please let us know. -Lennar Customer Care

All Seems Good Until Your Locked In

  • Anonymous

  • Madison, AL

Lenders I worked with, (Jami in financing), rude and unprofessional. Building manager, (Tyler), (Natures Trail), makes promises that doesn't t come to fruition and loses key to home to my front door. Staff overall friendly, but once locked in, completely fade to 0. If Lennar wants to beat the competition, they should train their staff to be there for the customers even after the closing date.

Lennar responded:
Hi there, we are sorry that you had this kind of experience with Lennar. We care about our homeowners at all steps in the homebuying process including the time after closing. We will use your feedback to help drive improvement. - Lennar Customer Care

Behind Closed Walls

  • Anonymous
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • April 14, 2024
  • Summerville, SC

I definitely would like to arrange an inspection by leadership to see the overall work performed in my NEWLY BUILT home, especially by GMT. Specifically, with the trash found inside the walls, we reported to Leadership. And that it was found after they had to remove the shower wall for replacement less than a month after closing. And many other less-than-satisfactory issues we have endured. The quality of craftsmanship being witnessed is borderline criminal.

Hi, there, we want to apologize for the quality issues and debris that you found in your new home. These kinds of things are not up to our standards and we are going to be discussing your feedback with the team responsible to help drive improvement. -Lennar Customer Care

The home buying process was easy and the sales representatives were great. The only down side was I didn’t feel the home was as finished or clean as it should have been at closing.

Good quality build

Overall great value for the price. Disappointed that we were forced to sign a contract were I am out $25,000 until the lawn is complete. The builders and work done on the house is excellent. Overall everything works as expected. Master bedroom door doesn’t close and a couple of popped nails that I expect to be fixed during warranty. Seems like minor issues for considering the detail and quality of the builder. The general contractor took exceptional care in quality during the build leaving very little to correct later.

Buying our second home with the help of Martha and John was a great experience. From the first day we met Martha she always seemed to have our best interest at heart. She is a great person to work with. The underwriters were the only thing that made this transaction feel overwhelming. Other than that, John who was our HLA was a great point of contact and we are very grateful to have been able to work together. Thank you all so much!

The Lernnar staff from sales to mortgage are great, very helpful and quick response. The insurance team response could be better. The star is Danielle from the walk through and explanation of warranty to follow up after move in. The quality of the workmanship is not what I expected from Lernnar, it definitely needs improvement.

The senior construction manager, Joe, was great upon first meeting, and he followed through a minor issue after I moved in.

Having all the appliances in place upon moving in was nice, and tankless water heater was a bonus since it is installed next to the kitchen on the first floor. Having two separate thermostat between each floor is a nice feature as well. But what was not included were the shower door and bathroom accessories. Also lack of storage space were the negatives. I'd have preferred to pay more with these items included.

We suggest Lennar revise their marketing information. Lennar says everything is included, they definitely do not include everything not even a fridge. The builder also should hire experienced subs so that they will fix the problem once and be done with it vs. having them come over and over and over again and the last sub we had made the problem even worse than the prior sub.

Warranty service is very prompt and helpful. Happy with the new home. Finance- Due to back surgery, I have moved from a bigger two-story home to one story new home within which is 10 mins away.

Overall we love our home. We got it for a good price. The neighborhood is great! The only complaints we have are typical for new builds. Because they are building so many and fast, they cut on cost with materials. The carpet and padding is on the lower end. The counters, while beautiful, are cheaper and stain easy. They pick lower quality wall paint so it marks up easy. Will have to replace carpet and paint in the near future.
