Lennar Reviews

Roseanne is awesome. However, I urgent homeowners to check out their appliances. My frig is still not operational it it has been 4 months!

This is perfect for a part-time home.

The sales department was amazing. The mortgage department is lacking at best.

A little unhappy with quality of drywall install and sod could have been layed more evenly.

The buying process went well and I love the home but construction discrepancies to be repaired after move in are still outstanding 4 months later

Not the best materials or workmanship. Stairs and 2nd floor creaks in several places. Too many places for the builder to fix without ripping out entire carpeting.

do a VERY good job of inspecting your home before closing. Get your list of problems in as soon as possible, it take Lennar's contractors along time to get to your problems. Lennar need to change the door on the laundry room so when the washer walks in front of the door it does not block the door from opening.

Great experience with loan officer

Response to the punch list was/is much to long.

The project manager and after close the warranty manager for my home have been extremely helpful at resolving any issues. There's a lot of new technology and they've taken the time to walk me through everything and even followed up to make sure everything was still functioning as excpeted.

Everyone here is very friendly.

The sales team in Lakewood Ranch, FL. was first rate. They provided consistent and timely updates on the build process and were available for those spur of the moment questions that always seem to come up. Dealing with Lennar's mortgage company was not as smooth. Things went well overall, but there was a lack of communication between the sales and mortgage side on when the closing date was going to be. This caused multiple "hard" credit pulls that adversely affected my credit score. I was lucky to have a pretty good credit score so it did not effect my rate. But, it could have. Dealing with Lennar Customer Support for post-purchase issues has been hit-or-miss. The support team is good to deal with but can be a bit busy at times so their communication and response to claims or questions can be spotty at times. When getting things fixed I needed to keep in mind that the same people that installed it in the first place would also be the same ones that fixed it. Their focus generally was the new units that were being built and not fixing their mistakes. So, patience is needed and understanding that they were the lowest bidder for the job. This came in handy when I understood that paint was "acceptable" to fill in gaps in moldings instead of caulking. In my case, I was still working through a pre-closing punch list of issues that needed to be addressed 2-3 months after closing. These were things that were caught by Lennar prior to me having my pre-closing walk through that were still not addressed and were not addressed by closing. Overall, Lennar is a good home builder with some really good floor plans to choose from. But, there are going to be more than a few issues that you will need to work through and that makes the one year warrantee that they offer worth quite a bit to the bottom line. ... More

Really overall good experience. Depends on who you deal with as to response time or update on repair time table. Wish more durable finishes were used

There are all the work which we were promised on our closing has never been fulfilled.

The sales staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. The sales representative was knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and still remembers our names months after we purchased the home. The house does have some design flaws. The tankless hot water heater is not able to quickly provide hot water to the kitchen although it functions well in the bathrooms and laundry area. The garage and driveway are narrow; most of our neighbors park at least one car in the driveway as they are unable to get two cars into the garage along with the usual homeowners items (lawn care equipment, bicycles, tools, etc.). Otherwise the house is well designed. We especially enjoy the screened in porch, but are adding a patio as are many of our neighbors. The interior rooms are of ample size and have a decent amount of closet space. The ceilings are 9 feet tall giving the rooms a more spacious appearance. The bathrooms, especially the master bath, are well done. The master bath and closet are very large and flow together nicely. Most of the finish work is of average quality but the quarter round is poorly implemented and appears as if the wood was chewed off rather than cut with a sharp saw. The interior paint job was substandard, especially the trim and railings. The flooring, although builder's grade, is reasonably nice and has held up well thus far. Lennar paid attention to amenities and equipped the home with a Ring doorbell, garage door opener, a Schlage numerical code front door lock, and nice landscaping. We wish that they had included a lawn irrigation system and a keypad outside of the garage door. The exterior of the home is cement fiberboard and is nicely painted. The guttering is adequate. Things to look at if considering a purchase: painting, trim work, hot water delivery, caulking along baseboards, the width of the driveway and the size of the garage, and, importantly, the terms imposed on homeowners by the HOA. Also, the neighborhood includes two pools, a clubhouse, playground, and open areas. Lennar is a reputable company but because they are building houses quickly, you need to pay attention to the details. ... More

We had a great experience with the staff working in our community. Unforgivably those in management including Dustin (VP of Reno) and Dave (construction manager) only care about the bottom line and not people.

We love our new home. Have had a few issues, but hopefully they will be resolved soon. Quick to respond, still waiting for them to be resolved.

I think the process was great despite the delays, but that was to be expected mid pandemic. The quality of workmanship is very poor though. As we live here longer we see clear errors of workmanship whether it be low quality materials, lack of care, or inexperience by the workers. There are scuffs on trim painted over, bulges in Sheetrock, we have tons of nail pops (that we were told are not covered under warranty), caulking is splitting in multiple places (again, not covered under warranty). Other than these noticeable cosmetic mistakes and issues (that won’t be fixed because it’s not “covered”) the process was nice, the managers have been very nice as well. ... More

As of right now the only thing I’m not happy with is the matting under the carpet it doesn’t feel even under your feet. And when I’m there full time in July I’m going to issue a repair or replace ticket. But other than that I love the home.

They have professional works. Well done!

Insulation issues in bathrooms on the 3d floor, defective windows installation.

The process was very rewarding, still have a few small issues that need to be addressed.

Started the homebuying process right when Covid hit. Our Home Consultant was great at adapting to the new safety guidelines and we felt comfortable in working with him. We hit some bumps here and there which was not one persons fault but rather the situation. We moved in about six months ago and have unfortunately had problem after problem. The construction manager has been excellent in addressing our questions and concerns in a very timely manner. All of the issues we have been encountering are due to construction quality.

Certain promises were made and kept, others were not.

Final punch work wasn’t completed , I’ve spoken to the Super and have received promise of completion soon we’ll see .
