Lennar Reviews

Having been a Realtor in Florida and purchased well over 20 homes, I found the buying process to be cumbersome. Closing documents exceeded 250 pages, WOW. The number of pages I am accustomed to for a closing had been 20-30. I guess Lennar is doing their part for full employment in the areas they sell homes. Aside from all of the paperwork I have been very pleased with Lennar's follow through and workmanship in the building process.

Lenar is in it to turn over homes…it’s lost in the name. The workers who do as little as possible, the nails left after clean up, I’ll go so far as no integrity in workmanship… we paid for “luxury”. There is nothing luxurious about these homes especially the finished product. Location is wonderful…integrity is lost with these homes at closing

The money at least we can have floors that can be washed meaning to be able to use water

Having all options for building, financing, insurance, etc. all in-house makes the buying process less stressful. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase and the Lennar team in general.

Buying process and moving in was smooth Unfortunately a week or two upon moving the dishwasher started leaking which cause a lot of damage on the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Lennar team was quick to assess the situation and provide solutions. However the new parts needed takes time to arrive so we dont have a kitchen for more than two weeks now. Hopefully once parts arrive it will be seamless process moving forward.

I really like my new house. Great quality home

Overall the experience was fantastic. The team was highly responsive during the initial process. I wish there was better communication during the final few weeks and that the blue tape walk was given more attention for the repairs as many things were left incomplete and required follow ups after. At this point the issues are resolved but it took quite a bit of work on my end for previously identified issues. That being said, the teams have been highly professional and the warranty team already has been great to work with. Overall I am satisfied and feel like this was a great purchase.

We love our home. The process was great with Lennar helping us through the process. Sometimes to many times redoing paperwork. Needs more windows in some areas but it's what it is. Wiring for garage door is to thin. I still don't get why they would not have a garage door opener included. We spend enough it should be. This area needs a whole house serge pertector we were told it had one. It doesn't. Laminate on floor is to thin. My dogs hate the grass. They do not like walking on it. It's like something hurts them. Ground needed to be compacted more where our grass is.sprinklers we should have a diagram of where they are located. ... More

Our Sales Representative was awesome. He was thorough, patient, and responsive. We looked at a mortgage loan, and our mortgage Representative was also outstanding. The process can seem annoying at times, but understandable. The home build has not been as stellar, and somewhat disappointing. Mudding, caulking, and paint priming has been the source of frustration. Cabinetry quality is satisfactory, at best. Still moving in.

I absolutely love my new condo at Ibis golf community. I am looking forward to the pool and other amenities being completed.

Good company that cuts corners to save costs, when they should focus on quality of life and family needs, as many people are willing to pay for better quality,

We bought our second home from Lennar and we love it. Very nice floor plan and design, great location and overall good experience. My only complaint is the kitchen countertop. It has some big stains form installation that we didn’t notice on the final walkthrough and looks like are not covered by their warranty. So make sure you check everything it’s covered and address all issues before buying.

Everybody has been great to work with

Thank you for helping us make our dreams come true!

I like my home but it has been a headache since first doing our walk through. I can’t believe that Lennar is okay with the condition of their homes when it is time to close. The house was dirty. Walls, floors, cabinets, windows all dirty. It has been 60 days and we still do not have grass. I want to plant flowers but unable to. I would not suggest Lennar home to others. My first new built home was Cambridge. They were so much better

We have recently moved into our our new Lennar home and have found issues we could not see during final walk through. Shower door leaks, feel the nail heads sticking up when walking barefoot on the carpets, unfinished flooring at the bottom of stairs, see sunlight coming through gaps in the attic walls, breaker keeps throwing off when several family members use electricity at same time, fire alarms going off randomly and lots of cracks in the front porch concrete that are not guaranteed with home warranty. The homes are beautiful but construction needs major upgrades in building these homes.

The buying experience seemed satisfactory at the beginning and until closing. However, once we moved into our new home at the Trails community in Carmel Mountain Ranch San Diego, we observed that the USPS letters were not getting delivered to our assigned mailbox. We learned that USPS has not yet installed the mailbox carrier locks and they didn't have a timeline for completing the corresponding work order. The mails will start getting delivered only after the mailbox carrier locks are installed. We contacted Lennar and to our surprise they just apologized, but showed no willingness to help resolve this issue. They just told that it is now a USPS issue, and they can’t do anything to help with this, and we would have to contact USPS over selves. Before buying, the Lennar new home consultant had assured us that they can't close escrow without setting up the mailbox and we will be receiving all our mails in the assigned mailbox itself once we move in. However, we were shocked to find out that the mailbox carrier locks are not installed yet and mails are not getting delivered in the mailbox. If Lennar had not concealed this important fact or about the potential possibility of mails not getting delivered to the mailbox by the time we move in, we would never have bought this home. This was of utmost importance to us before buying the home and we made sure to check with the new home consultant multiple times before buying the home, but now we are stuck since whatever the new home consultant promised turned out to be false. Currently we are struggling to get our mails, and we have to make regular trips to the USPS delivery location to pick-up. Most of the time, the mails are not available for pickup at the USPS delivery location on time and some seem to have got misplaced by USPS (we haven’t received few one-month-old mails yet). At one time, we found few letters lying at out front door, potentially dropped off by a resident of some other address where these got delivered incorrectly by USPS. In spite of multiple requests to Lennar representatives (viz. new home consultant, customer care representative, HOA etc.), they have shown no inclination to coordinate with USPS to help resolve this quickly. ...

Overall the experience was good but I am having lots of challenges in getting driveway pavers replaces as the originals were defective. While someone came to partially replace some of the stones the coolers were completely different. Getting very little support from people I spoke with

When I request anything from Lennar, they are very responsive. When requesting something from third parties, like Edmonson, they are not as responsive. This was a first time contacting Edmonson, so they get a mulligan. But when you leave a message and a call back number, and no one calls back, that's a problem.

Customer service has been excellent so far, and the walkthroughs with the builder representatives were extremely helpful. The level of some items are low grade and it would have been nice to be able to upgrade. For instance, the cabinets are cheap and don’t even have soft close hinges and drawer slides. The washer and dryer must be the most basic models and are very loud. The blown-in insulation in the attic appears to possibly be lacking. There is none over the garage. The darker color of the garage doors are nice, but they soak up heat from the Sun and turn the garage into an oven. The paver driveways are very nice but also too narrow. ... More

Buying and home closing experience was good. After we moved in, paint from several doors started to peel off within days. Front lawn irrigation was not programmed properly. Lawn dried up by the time we noticed.

Good sales/ buying experience. Lennar product fell short on expectations. Low quality materials for example very small doors. Windos that do not open. Lost space in the corner counter. Very dark house. Ensure the lights are off when you see the house.

We love our new home & neighborhood. However, Lennar really went the cheap route during the building process yet still charged us top dollar. Horrible flat white paint throughout the home, grade 1 air filters in the vents, bottom of the line appliances, messy touch up’s after walk through resulting in paint splatter all over new carpet and flooring…I could go on. The buying process was also overwhelming with repeat documentation required with short notice.

Mixed emotions about this product. Great floorplan, great purchase price, but the quality of workmanship and the quality of materials (e.g. cabinets) was disappointing. Some would would say "you get what you pay for'. The bundled golf package was a plus. Lennar Title and Lennar Mortgage experience was great. The sales experience wiht Adriana in the sales office was great too. Some stress with trying to move in because of a defective smoke alarm that chirped so much that we wouldn't be able to sleep causing a delayed move-in. Working with support to resolve.

As expected the overall build quality and the materials used are great. It was been a great experience with the sales team, mortgage team and the post sale representative. When I have created tickets for issues, the response and scheduling could use a lot of improvements
