Poor Craftsmanship and Quality

The overall quality for the price paid was very disappointing. The AC unit was not set up correctly and leaked in our ceiling, the trim was not straight on almost all walls, paint was splattered on our new floors and stained. The floors have nail pops and bumps, and the walls have many pops and cracks already. I would not purchase another Lennar home unfortunately. Great customer service but poor quality home.

Experience was ok, noting more

The builders of our home didn’t really take pride in their work. Door latches do not engage properly, outside siding nails created problems both for cable installation, and with water heater pipes. Lennar is short staffed so getting issues fixed or repaired before closing was problematic

Worst customer care and order maintenance!!!!

We purchased our Lennar home in May, and when we did our final walk through a number of items were still not finished or were finished with poor workmanship. We were assured the items would be finished before our celebratory walk and they weren’t. I have found over 90 items that need to be addressed, some as serious as bad wiring, no electrical throughout the home, broken appliances, water heater not properly installed and the list unfortunately goes on and on. The house was left filthy after the build (debris left in the home, drywall dust on everything, dead bugs etc). We were once ...

Buying with Lennar Homes was a great experience. James was helpful the whole experience. And then Wyatt was very good walking me thru the walk thru for the closing. And Susan was very helpful in over seeing details that needed to be fixed after I moved in to my Villa! Lennar Homes is a great place to Live! Come see them today!

From the beginning Shannon D. has been extremely helpful making the home purchase process very easy. After the closing, she continues to help us when issues arise depending on the situation. In addition, Cody B. has been invaluable as far as being on site every day. He also goes above and beyond helping us out on any issue that is planned or unplanned. I will say though that quality of craftsmanship leaves a lot to be desired.

Lennar has a great agent..... Brandon

  • Firestone, CO

I wish the experience I started with at the model homes with Brandon lasted with the construction team. The buying experience was great, the construction team has a lot of work to do. When I moved in the house was so dirty, items were still not finished and 6 weeks later still not finished. Quality of carpet is so bad.....just leave it as wood and let the home owner install their own. The amount of settlement and the horrible condition of the cement work is a joke. You really need to pay a real company to start installing your walkways, porches and driveways. In the long run you would ...

Of course you don’t want last names.. everyone would give the same negative review for the same pitiful construction manager Aaron. There’s not point going on about my experience with Lennar, no one above cares to fix their problems. I just hope EVERYONE I share my experience with turns away from Lennar and saves themselves the headaches! Listen to your friends when they tell you stay away from a Lennar home!!!

The initial prices you see and expected delivery date aren't accurate enough

  • Kenneth M.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • July 11, 2023
  • Zephyrhills, FL

The experience was not too bad but there were things we wish were clearer at the time we decided to sign in to buy the townhouse. Initially, the post we saw on Zillow said 100 HOA which we thought it was great. But after signing in we learned that it was going to be 220 HOA plus $99 CDD which was not in the post we saw. And after we purchased we found out the HOA was $270 instead so it's something a little disappointing because we could've been told from the beginning. The townhouse also was supposed to be done by February or March but it took them around 2 more months to get it built and ...

Not sure how this company can clear any letter of occupancy. The house is still incomplete. They FORCE you to close before the home is complete so they can hit their end of the quarter quota.

After the walk through nothing has been repaired. We also have not been able to complete the warranty process. Call numbers and no one will return calls. Make sure everything is done before you close or you will be extremely disappointed

The worst home-buying experience ever

  • ROBERT M.

  • Junction City, OR

I’ve bought three homes so far in my life and this was absolutely the worst experience. We were out of town buyers not able to walk the home in person. Lennar’s website advertised all of these features like being able to heat and cool your home from your phone, the house would come with “Everything Included” which meant a refrigerator, washer, dryer, and a security system. When my father did the final walkthrough of the house he informed us that none of this was included. When I sent the advertisement to Lennar, everyone up and down their chain of command knew that they messed up, but didn’t ...

I believe some of the basic reviews were missed by review team. Even after identifying several issues during the walkthrough, some of them had not been fixed appropriate. Otherwise, entire sales process was fantastic.

Not a great experience

Overall experience is just "ok". If I had the option, I would have chosen a different builder. Complete mess, from the Lennar mortgage (waited 3 hrs during the closing) to home automation (water shut off, door bell video), which was described as a key differentiation from other builders but then wasn't on my home, and when I queried Lennar policy, they said they no longer supply automatic water shut off.

After a six month delay we are in. The excitement when we first signed contract was quickly diluted by the time we moved in. A lot of having to do things twice. Example, air conditioning vent was damaged yet they installed anyway. We pointed out Bathroom window installed crooked yet they continued to sheet rock and tile only to have to remove the tile and sheet rock to fix the window. We found busted roof tiles, our house had walls and trusses up. On both sides of our house lots were still dirt, yet those two houses were completed and sold before ours. Our construction manager was let go ...

We were shown a model home and told of all the things the home included such as blinds, two garage door openers, Wi-Fi mesh system, ring alarm, and pre-wired for electric car charger among other things. As an electric car owner this was a selling point. We were told before we signed paperwork that it had switched to quartz and not granite countertops. Which was fine. But we were not told of all the things our home now didn’t include. When we toured our finished home and realized our home was missing all the items. All we got was oops and that they didn’t know what was actually included or not ...

From the loan experience with seniors to not notifyng home owners that the layout of interior has changed, to many issues on the finish work of the interior. I wanted to let lennar to be aware of these problems so others can have a better experience. The build was rushed to close. Jesse from lennar southshorebay medley is doing a great job he truly cares about helping and has made our experience much better

Fairly easy process buying and financing thru Lennar Mortgage. The home came with a family of mice in the attic and the outside is spider city but an annual pest control plan has kept the inside pest free. The home has had a few issues with with plumbing and electrical but Lennar has come back out to fix them within a few days as they arise. The insulation and HVAC is really good, house stays cool easily and the electric bills have been around $120/ month in the hot summer.
