Lennar Reviews

It would've been nice to know Verandah is located in a MUD ZONE. VERANDAH is an exurb of Greenville Texas and a exurb of Royce City Texas. That's very unique! I now empathize with citizens of Puerto Rico and DC. Located in an the nation, but unable to vote for my interest of my immediate area except the ISD. Greenville, the county seat, is approximately 20 miles away. The location is good for me, and my neighbors I've met, are friendly and excited about their new home purchase. There are not many lights on the street I live and it's pretty dark at night. This should've been looked at a little closer. There were some problems identified but the response to having them corrected has been reasonable. There should be vehicle speed signs posted. The major offenders appear to be construction workers and support personnel. Residents aren't immune from exceeding normal speed restrictions in the complex. It's a disappointment, to me, rain gutters we're not factored into the price of the home. I would have welcomed that, now that's an additional out of pocket expense for me and I hope not to run afoul of the HOA. This area is going to continue to grow and everyone who purchased here will be happy with their purchase. ... More

Throughout the process I was able to communicate with everyone I needed and the responses were timely.

The property is great. They got most of the issues before we moved in. Only small things popped up.

All detail above in title

We are very happy with our home now, but the builders were very sloppy, and we had a lot of cleanup to take care of when we moved in to our place. The grounds in our subdivision are still cluttered with all kinds of construction trash. It is a shame that the company does not take more pride in what is left behind.

Sara was good but I wouldn't work with her again or recommend her. She is passive aggressive and has a big personality, not good traits for a sales person. Melanie with warranty was great! Very responsive.

My home was first to get close on Phase 4 (Smithfarm) , Internet and address was 2 issues after move. Internet issue got resolved after a week whereas address issue is have not resolved even after 1 and half month ( clear communication gaps between builder and usps). Overall construction manager has done great job on this home. Great community.

From the start to end. The home buying process was great. From the sales to the builders. They kept us up to date on the process.

Lennar’s model is to build a lot of nice homes quickly. Community well planned and they streamline the process for output. This means no customization and a little less Quality Control than I would like. But, they fix the problems and the price gives you room to go back and customize the things you really want. They even worked with us to change lots mid-process. Overall. We are very happy

Overall in general good experience so far. Do think items missed during final walk through should not be considered damage and not covered under warranty just because they went unnoticed

Professional and focused representatives. From the initial contact and sales experience through the construction management process to our new home finalization and orientation, everyone has been thorough and helpful. We expect and hope to not need to move again for a long long time, but know the builder and employees do seem to care well for potential and current homeowners.

We are pleased that we were able to purchase the home of our choice. Our sales rep Penny was responsive to all of our questions. We have good interactions with our construction manager and our repair coordinator. We have also been pleased with the responsiveness to our requests for repair issues. All the new homeowners including ourselves are anxious for communication regarding the building of our amenity center.

Overall experience was good. Drywall finish is not, it’s terrible. I understand the builder has deleted the sliding glass door in the master bedroom which is great improvement that we would have liked. Makes good floorplan even better by creating needed wall space. Gateway location is convenient and up and coming.

The buying experience with Lennar is as one might expect, A large company getting through a lot of detail in a streamlined manner. Some things fall through the cracks and they do a pretty good job of fixing those things. From a buyer’s perspective it seems like having the ability to make changes in the home at an early stage makes the purchase more attractive. Being unable to decide what the end result will be makes the home a cookie cutter product. When you are putting up your life savings it’s hard to understand that a company doesn’t understand that 8 or 10 different homes isn’t enough of a choice in possibilities to make thousands of different personalities happy with their finished product. People have different day to day lives. They want a home that works for them. ... More

The staff was courteous and friendly. I feel I got a good home for the price.

Overall we love our new home. As with any new home, there have been a few issues/punch list items but so far Lennar has been great about fixing them. Lennar Mortgage (Bryan is amazing to work with), Lennar Insurance and Heidi all made this home building and buying experience an easy one. Thank you

All I have to say is that these lennar homes aren’t built with quality but rather with just speed over all - they can build a whole house bottom up in 2 months but won’t fix an issue after close date. After you close it’s like you don’t matter. Quality = what you pay for.

Laura F. in the sales department was great, with frequent communications and helpfulness. The closing process was smooth. My only complaint about the sales and closing process (which is a plus, actually, in the current market), is that the closing date was pushed ahead by a month and I had a temporary rental that I could not get out of, so had 2 properties for 2 months. Which DID allow a slow move-in, with ability to have contractors do work without the home being cluttered with boxes and large furniture being placed (getting in the way of painting and the like). My big "nit pick" is that Lennar advertises "everything's included" and it's FAR from that. Some things ARE included that I don't feel necessary, like the smart home features (need to add a lot of components to make it a worthwhile system - the homes are generally long and dead spots are an issue, for example - and they are pricey), while others, like patio screening and an open patio (this is the South and a beach area; folks want to be outdoors), assist bars in showers and tubs (many buying in this area are 55+, hello), blinds, ceiling fans, and a painted garage are not. But, to be honest, this is the current state of the building industry. My sister owns a home built in 2016 and it's shocking to see how many features were standard back then (different builder) and are not today. My advice is to expect a LOT of needed additions and a big budget would be helpful. ... More

Our buying experience hasn’t ended yet. Before we move into our new home we want to get additional work done on it. The interior paint was a flat dull gray on the walls, and the ceilings were a little lighter flat gray. My wife could not live with all that gray flat paint. I mean flat paint is the cheapest paint money can buy. Also, it isn’t practical at all. Get a smudge on it and it’s there to stay! So we got a nice satin paint all around. Now we’re getting more shelving added in all of the bigger closets. Our biggest complaint regarding our Lennar experience is the fact that we had virtually no choices in anything, ie cabinets, countertops, carpet, interior color, exterior color, etc. the only choice we had was which of the floor plans on the few available lots we could get. When we purchase a half million dollar home we expect to have a few more choices. In this bull real estate market, the developers have the luxury of dictating to the buyers instead of the buyers telling them specifically what we want. Guess I’m a little old school for this type of sales and marketing… We do think that our new home is basically sound construction in all the phases. I personally think the quality of construction is better than the other national builders in our area such as, DR Horton, Pulte, Beazer, Dale Webb, etc. We’ve only encountered one problem thus far. Our landscaper could not get the irrigation system to work. He said our grass was distressed and nearly dead because of a lack of water. So we called Lennar, SC MB. We actually got a real person on the phone. I described our irrigation problem to the nice lady and she made a call and got the problem taken care of almost immediately!!! What a pleasant surprise!! Thank you!! ... More

My experience every time I visited the community offices to know the models and the community was always phenomenal, Jamie was very nice and knowledgeable. My experience with Lennar mortgage was average, communication was an issue. When I received the home, Alex was fantastic, kind, empathetic and knowledgeable.

Overall, good experience with sales and customer care team. Not sure I would ever use the loan servicer directly through Lennar again as they were not great but everything else went smooth and we love our new home.

Lissette and James were very helpful with the final walkthrough. Very knowledgeable and will always rely on them when we have any questions

Very good experience but would recommend you have a professional home inspector do an inspection of your home before you accept the keys

I think I get a very good value for the price that I paid.

Good deals; thoughtful design, good material used it seems For Workmanship and quality, we will ha e to wait for a year to see how things turn out.
