Lennar Reviews

The windows and walls are not straight. The finishing on walls and tiles is poor. Overall it seems the work is done by inexperienced workers who were in in rush to finish. We highlighted this during inspections but response was that they cannot do anything and quality inspections are only for issues that are visible from 6 feet away. Unsatisfied with builder’s quality for a $1 M home.

Lennar made my home buying experience with possibilities, exciting. Ms. Nikole from the sales team kept in direct contact with me throughout the whole process. The individual attention from sales plus the loan officers made the stress of buying a property attainable and attractive.

The price you pay for the product that you’re buying is adequate. But if you’re looking for just adequate no perfection or even close to a building standard, you’re wasting your money. No communication skills during the build process. Attempting to get the punchlist fixed is a nightmare. Due to the fact, you have to go through a warranty service as they put it to get things done. I cannot in good faith recommend Lennar to anyone that’s purchasing a property.

As far as the home buying process it is easy and simple but the quality in workmanship around the house it is extremely poor. Everything in the house is built too fast therefore the house have problems just like an old house. I already got multiple problems on a "new" house. Lennar will tell you that everything in the house has warranty which it does but, you have to take out of your time to fix problems they made while building the house. Also, it takes them a long time to fix anything. I bought a new house to not have problems of an old house.

Home is substandard with poor workmanship. Lennar did not meet any of our expectations of a newly constructed home. Home was not finished by the closing date despite reassurance that everything would be done. We wanted to delay the closing until everything was completed but Lennar threatened loss of our 10% deposit if we did not close that day. Construction manager apologized and gave his commitment that he would personally make sure everything was done right but broke his promise the next day and said it was not his department or responsibility after closing.

The total experience with Sales person, title, inspection were bad. In order for Lennar to be great company to trust, the ground work from. Sales and other areas should be good but my experience was very disappointing.

a new person from Lennar every couple of days to the point that I was confused about who to ask questions.

We love our home and the location, neutral on the overall home buying experience rating. During the process, there are many, many things that should have gone smoother. Unfortunately, without disclosure, the Builder removed many items from our build in an effort to increase profit margins (I.e. Epoxy Garage Coating, Vanity Lights, Glass Front Door, Smart Home Features (EERO Router) etc.). One of the items was compensated, but not without a fight with the sales rep and manager. Items were documented on Lennars punch list and our Buyer Punch List 30+ days prior to closing and are just now being finished 30+ days after closing despite asking them to complete before signing. Lennar threatened to keep our Earnest Money and sell the home if we did not close, purely because a CO was issued for the home. I still have concerns with corners that may have been cut during construction, due to an abundance of other neighbors with issues - but time will tell. Please hire a Buyers Agent and Real Estate Attorney if purchasing here, review the contract thoroughly, hire a third party inspector and stay on top of documentation. ... More

Love the condo. Lennar should notify buyers they took away the crown molding, the shower bars, less ceiling lights. Communication on cut backs should be communicated.

Poor quality of paint in the house. The paint was a definite rip-off. Missing some door stoppers. Oven door fell off on first use. AC system leaking water all over floor. Heating and AC system too close to master bedroom.

Very frustrating. Issues from the very beginning till now. My very first week in this house my bathroom flooded due to a missing cap, it took way too long and me complaining for someone to come look at it. My house was not move in ready when I closed there was several issues with the AC, there was paint on the floor and cabinets and I already had fully moved in by the time they came to clean it. One of my door doesn’t close all the way, and it’s been stressful as a single woman to deal with all of these issues after I just bought a 251k home. I advise any buyer to not move in their houses until everything is fixed because all my issues were from the beginning and I’m already 2 months in and now im left to deal with it alone. I have not had a pleasant experience at all. ... More

Great experience with Lennar, Ahmed was our loan officer he was very welcoming . every question we had about tuning in paper work he would be on top of it and got us taking care of we now live in our new home we love it thanks Lennar !!

Warranty Department and People are great!

Being in the first phase of a new community has its ups and downs. The overall process was hectic, but the end results were well worth it. Happy in my new beautiful home.

Once moved in noticed a few things that needed to be touched up reached out and still haven’t heard back. Blessed to have a new home for my family and I but would love a call back to get things touched up that was promised if we needed anything.

Lennar staff are well versed in customer service details, professional in their interactions and just a pleasure to do business with. Thank you for helping to make a daunting experience less scary.

I rented a Lennar Home prior to purchasing one and this is what made me want to buy with the builder. It was the detail of they put in the home and the unique features. I also like that Lennar builds the home and sales then so you get a new construction home without waiting 6-8 months. The process went quickly 3 weeks from going under contract to closing. No major issues and I am very happy with my home.

We love our new home, but there are some issues. The most annoying is the lack of gutters on the home. I’m from an era where homes came with rain gutters, so when inspecting the home during the walkthroughs we asked about their lack and were given an explanation of how the new home roofs were built to divert rain water and told we could have gutters installed if we wished. Didn’t think it would be a problem due to the explanation. Of course neither of the walkthroughs was performed in the rain so we excepted what we were told. After the first rain we discovered the roof’s design diverted the rain alright, right in front of the front door. So, now whenever it rains we have a mini waterfall cascading directly onto the main walkway leading to our front door that has to be dodged when entering from the front of the house. When informed about it, and questioned about the ‘roof design’ we were told there was nothing that could be done and our only option was to have gutters installed. Thanks for nothing. What’s going on? Do they have a kickback agreement with the gutter installers? And when did homes start being built without rain gutters? Do better Lennar. ... More

Home quality is not much expected and I though overpaid for this quality

We started three years ago to find a new home to retire in, in the state of Idaho. We saw the hand of the Lord move in finally bring us to the Lennar development known as Mandalay Ranch, in Caldwell, ID. After searching for the time that we have and picking out the features and design of the home we wanted, the home Lennar offered provided 90% of all we wanted in the asking price. We did not have the experience of choosing features of the home and would have preferred a different layout in the master bathroom, but that is the 10% that was not our preference. But having worked with many home developers over the past 3 years we were glad to work with Lenar who built a beautiful home at a price that fit our budget and provided so much of what we wanted. We needed a lot to build an RV pad and the unique lot the house set on was perfect for this. We have made a substantial investment, in getting the backyard in place. The only think I would encourage Lennar to consider is the put gutters on the entire house. A couple of thousand dollars more would bring to your customer the ability to say they took care of it all. Love out new home and neighborhood. Have been in it for 60 days and it is working out just fine. ... More

There are some nice features in the house. We were not allowed to change anything even though we were willing to pay for tile in all rooms. We had a home inspector inspect the house and he made a list of things that were not done correctly in early August. We are still trying to get the last of those items finished and it is October 11th. We were not told the truth and closed on the house after being assured that all the repairs were completed only to find out that at l1 items were still not completed. For the most part the warranty repair people are much better than the original people that built the house. They have been very good to work with and do a quality job. ... More

My experience here was great I had the most helpful agent here Dominique she walked me through everything. Couldn’t have done it without her. I love my new home

Overall we had a great experience with Lennar. We were kept informed of the progress being made throughout the build.

Nothing but issues. Broken stove paint all over floor prices of floor not installed correctly dishwasher installed on wrong side,

The quality of the materials such as running boards, window screens, especially paints is very poor quality.
