Lennar Reviews

Melissa, our mortgage loan officer, was fantastic and went out of her way to help with the mortgage loan process. However, the Lennar underwriters were terrible. They waited until the last minute before closing, then expected us to jump through hoops, gave no clear instructions on what they needed or how, called while we were in the middle of packing, were unreachable for return calls, and ultimately caused our closing to be delayed which put a wrench in the entire process.

We bought an already built house and closed within 3 weeks. Because the house was almost finished we did not get to choose appliances, cabinets, or extras……builder grade appliances are just ok. But we did get a great price! Wish that we had more time but needed a house quickly. The best part of Lennar was our sales person Steven and our walk through specialist Darren…….we purchased in Bridgewalk, Saint Cloud, Florida. We are happy with the purchase.

Unfortunately some of the information I was given during my final walk-through was incorrect and will mean an additional expense for me which is unexpected. Other than that I really had a good experience and I am very happy with the home.

I thought the process was a bit bureaucratic. Too many people doing too many things and not clear who my lawyer needed to connect with. Once you found the right person it seemed fine but I wish it would have been a little clearer and there was more engaging. I don't regret the experience but I wished it was a little more collegial

Overall experience went well and process was relatively smooth.

Like place,like people. Kerrie my realtor ,other people help us also

Our experience has been great thus far. Our salesperson was good but once we decided to buy, things really started to move. Loan process was good as was move-in process. Some minor issues but they have been addressed. My one concern is the lawn. We began watering as soon as we moved in but the lawn may have suffered in the interim before could begin watering it. Large patches are dead.

Our home is nice. We have put alot of effort into making it a really nice home. Neighbor hood is nice. The sales staff and the after purchase staff have been great.

My home had a few problems but all so for has been addressed

Lennar's staff was very easy to work with. From our first appointment to the picking up our keys, Lennar accommodated our needs and requests throughout the homebuying process. A business I could trust and personal relationship to continue in the future.

We had a great experience overall with the home buying process. All of the lenders were wonderful to work with, and the initial team member who guided us through the early stages was incredibly helpful and made everything feel smooth and manageable. The only downside was our experience with the “concierge” role. In the initial email, it was presented as the main point of contact for any questions or next steps. However, when we reached out, the responses often came across as dismissive, and at times we felt like our questions were an inconvenience. We also called and left multiple messages but did not receive return calls. Additionally, most of the communication we received from this role focused on general community updates, which wasn’t particularly helpful during such an important and detail-oriented process. Aside from that experience, everyone else we worked with was amazing. It was just disappointing that the one role designed to support us throughout the process did not meet expectations. ... More

We were originally told that our closing date was mid March 2026. Sales Mgr moved it up to end of Feb. My husband was recovering from a neck fusion surgery and was not going to be able to be cleared for travel until first week of march. Lennar pushed us anyway stating that they would keep our deposit and could cancel. While we understand the contract terms, this left a very bad taste with us. At final walk through there was paint and caulking debris throughout the house on the floor. We were told at that time that the floor would be acid washed before we closed. It was not. They eventually sent the painter in and cleaners weeks later but we had furniture in by that time so not a complete fix. The pool heater was causing the breaker to trip and we were told at final walk through that it had been corrected. After move in we discovered it was still tripping. It is almost the 1st of May and we are still trying to get that breaker replaced with Lennar service. Sloppiness of workmanship on things like paint and caulking were very obvious. This is a production builder but we have touched up several things ourselves as it looked very sloppy. ... More

Our buying experience with Lennar went very well. We had visited the area but we were still living out-of-state. Our purchase in Sequim was handled all on-line. The communications were excellent especially with Lennar Title. The sale of our home in AZ closed the same day as the purchase of our new home in Sequim. The process went very smoothly. Our new home orientation had to be conducted on-line since we had not relocated yet. The new home coordinator on site in Sequim did an excellent job and she was, and continues to be, available if we have additional questions or need more information. Overall, our buying experience was very good. ... More

Overall good and smooth experience. Only bummer is that we have not yet been able to get the mailbox keys from the post office, it’s been almost two months now. This information was not disclosed to us when we were purchasing the house that we have to get the mailbox keys on our own and that the builder is not responsible for that.

My experience was good, I didn't get into my home on the date agreed on... But, since being in my home.... the only problem I have is with the flooring,(the flooring technician did a crappy job) and I had to purchase my own venetian blinds. Otherwise, I'm enjoying my new HOUSE....

Home buying with Lennar has its both ups and downs. The hardest part of the process is the approval and mortgage processing which i recommend to have a backup mortgage company to make sure that everything will flow smoothly. The house and support from the builder in preparing it before the move has been great. Lennars app has been really helpful to coordinate things. Overall Lennar as a builder has been great. As a Mortgage company maybe fair I guess it’s a case to case basis.

I felt like I had to keep talking to so many different people thru process I had to keep repeating myself

Thuy was a gem. I’m not computer savvy and she was Very helpful in showing me how to find and sign documents when I got lost. It was very fast paced. We like the roomy space in the house and it’s enough for me and my husband. We were glad they allowed us to come in and sign on closing day. We’re having fun decorating our new home.

I think that there are a lot of little things that could be done to make the experience better for the customer without adding cost.

We love our home and community so far. We feel like we are at an all inclusive resort most days.

This process was fast (16 days start to finish) and we were not prepared to move in 16 days, but we did it. The process is definitely nerve wracking because things move so fast and if it is your first time buying a home, it will be very overwhelming. However, everyone is amazing with helping and walking your through things. The most nerve-wracking thing was not knowing you had the final approval until days before the closing and having to pack up your house and do all the things associated with moving totally by faith! That part was probably the most frustrating thing, but it's the way it goes and we got a great deal. As far as craftsmanship, the houses are constructed well and very well thought. Sure, there are things that were done because it was cheaper, like the paint. It's contractor's paint and the cheapest they have. So, plan to repaint at some point once you are completely moved in because you will have scuffs from moving and so forth. Overall, we would definitely recommend Lennar. ... More

It was a quick and easy homebuying experience.

Mostly great. Still waiting for activation of Solar. Everything well explained except motion sensitive light and fan operation and hot water on off cycle button operation.

Good house, includes front yard landscaping and drip irrigation which was a pleasant surprise along with block walls in the back yard. The house was finished exactly when we were told it would be. I would highly recommend a Lennar home.

While the sales team and quality team were excellent, the mortgage “process” (not the people) was very stressful. Lennar pushes to close quickly on inventory homes, and mortgages require many steps to complete, which means they do not give the buyer much time to produce documents, or information. They set the close date quickly and threaten to “lose your great rate”, if you do not meet the time demands for disclosure. They would not schedule my closing on a date I preferred, but on a date they wanted. I believe my situation would have been much more pleasant if these demands were more relaxed or if they had worked with my preferred dates. In the long run, the rates actually have come down so I was pushed for nothing and could have closed on a better date for all involved. Even the mortgage team was stressed to meet the deadlines. This was too bad and left a bad taste for Lennar’s process. ... More
