Lennar Reviews

Let me start with, we love our home and the neighborhood. Our buying experience was mediocre at best from the time they started building our house. Lennar was not and still is not as customer oriented as I would have expected. We felt we had to "fight" for everything we asked for. Prior to the house even getting started, we wanted to purchase the paint ourselves and have it painted, they refused. We did not want carpet, they finally accepted. On our pre-walk through, we identified so many defects in the house. The entire island had to be taken out and redone, the floors had to be fixed, the painting was awful, in fact when my painter came in after the closing, he touched up paint that he said was done "as if a child had painted". His words. There was paint on the floors and just splashed a round. We had been told blinds would be hung and they weren't on closing day. This almost caused us to walk out on the closing. I would have expected the craftsmanship to be far better than what we saw. I have now been in the house for 60 days and have talked with other new buyers and unfortunately, they have the same complaints. In fact, the unfortunate person who is the supervisor, doesn't even like to drive in the neighborhood. As I said, we love our home but due to everything we have experienced and what we are hearing from other buyers, we are going through our home with a fine tooth comb to ensure everything is good. ...

So far I have had no issues.

My daughter and son in law chose this home for me as an investment property, The preliminary and final walk throughs were done via video meeting and conducted by a very professional man who anticipated and satisfied all my questions. Very please with the new property.

Few items that were not working when I moved: 1) Water heater: I lived without hot water for 10 days. Water heater has been replaced. 2) Air conditioning: One of the A/C was not working. Tech came in and replaced the parts and good now. 3) Cracked basement: Even though new construction, basement has a 7 feet cracked before I moved. 4) Water leaking: When they started sprinkle, water leaked from pipe and still leaking. means Lennar used very cheap material. 5) Siding wood already started peeling and curved. 6) Already started peeling the paint several areas. 7) 3 areas windows glass are going to replace b/c of poor quality and not meet basic requirements. My final conclusion: Used cheaper material, so don't recommend buying Lennar house to my family and friends. ... More

price of home good Workmanship needs help-someone needs to check up on work qualityThay installed cook top with no outlet to plug into.and more issues

Highly recommend having a home inspector. After moving in there are little issues left and right that I don't feel like I should be finding in a new build. Sod that is not placed properly, floor buckling, uneven walls, uneven floors etc. After paying 400k + for a house I should not feel like i've been cheated in a way. Not sure if I recommend Lennar.

the financial piece was very easy and straightforward. the 3 hour walk through the week before closing is extremely helpful and was a good opportunity to address those little lingering issues like fixtures not matching or small imperfections in paint/trim. it was also very informative by showing all the features of the home and how they work or how to reset them for yourself. Overall I'm very happy with my home and the experience with Lennar

I FEEL THE WORKMENSHIP WAS POOR , APPLIANCES BUILDER MODELS NO WARRANTY , AND THIS SMART HOUSE IS TERRIABLE ,I SERIOUSLY WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHSED THE HOME IF I HAD NONE IT,

The positive was the on-site construction manager (Will) who was communicative and responsive. The Lennar mortgage process (Robert) was straightforward and managed the process well. Be aware that the advertised “Everything’s Included” is not accurate. Not included: basic blinds, refrigerator, washer/dryer, unfinished garage, mirror in powder room, and no irrigation system or plan for the lawn. Our community also has an unfinished wall that is grotesque and an eyesore evident to the entire town. Internet cables located in the walls are a bust and shoddily placed. Ours didn’t work and a cable now dangles on the outside of the house and runs up to the attic. So far, the warranty representative (John) has been attentive, but the cable wiring outcome remains. Some features of the home are designed well: iron ballisters on staircase and nice vinyl plank floors; and some are poor such as the double door in the master bathroom which will need a general contractor to reconstruct. The sales department is uncommunicative and unable to answer basic questions about the home. Our sales representative lacked any knowledge of the physical features and could not tell us anything about the community or the home. After a certain point and leading up to and through closing, we never heard from her again. ... More

To say we are disappointed is an understatement. The craftsmanship and quality of work are subpar to say the least. External doors installed incorrectly, closet doors damaged or not even installed, bed and bath doors hung wrong. The drywall and paint were just slapped up with no attention to detail. Windows installed, but don't actually lock. The QC team marked things to be fixed, but they never were, nor was the house/floors cleaned prior to us closing. If we could give them 0 out of 5, we would.

Great quality and customer service. Lenar home is comfortable and real good for value I paid.

Purchasing the house was straight forward. Fortunately my team is very experienced with financing properties across the US as Lennar’s representative was not. My team made it much easier. That said the follow up gentleman who manages the repairs and questions (et cetera) is PHENOMENAL! I reeealy want to say his name as he needs a promotion.

I am very enjoy my new house, everything is good, thank you lennar team

My LENNAR representative was very helpful and pleasant throughout the process.

We were impressed with the professional and friendly way of taking us through the different homes available and the cost of them. We made a quick decision and bought. Along the way Angela helped us and kept us updated on the status. We are living in our home now and all the different people involved up to the closing and beyond have been equally professional and helpful. We are impressed and thus far completely satisfied.

Overall we are happy with the purchase of our Lennar Home. I’ve noticed there are minor things that are somewhat of an annoyance when it comes to the quality of work performed- not square walls, minor imperfections throughout the home. Watching the houses go up around us in the neighborhood it makes sense because it’s happening so quickly. However, all issues are very minor and we are truly happy with our purchase. No regrets here and would recommend Lennar to friends and family!

There was a lack of communication between the company, buyer and agent. Often times requests needed to be sent several times. Two areas we marked in our initial and final walk throughs are still not corrected.

alot miss communications with everyone , terrible regret buying at this locations

Is the worse experience I had, water was coming inside the house when raining through the windows I reported to everyone and my husband had to fixed almost a month and nobody has follow up this issue. The house was with the tapes pending things to be fixed and dirty at the time of the walking through before closing. I am still waiting….BAD.

Overall, the house is very nice! Only gripe is with their in-house lending, took two loan officers to review my loan and their underwriting is very strict, if you have a second home. Other than that, so far so good. Minor warranty issues after closing, but they are handling it, maybe a little slow though.

I was told that i am getting a smart home from the beginning till the completion of the deal. However in the end, i found out that my house was not a smart home and lacked many smart item. When I complained, few items were added but few still left out.

Was very unhappy with lack of communication from Lennar Mortgage. Would take days/week to get a response. Now that my loan has been sold to another management company. I have the mortgage reporting twice on my credit report.

My husband and I had been sharing our concerns to the building team and even the Lennar Realtor . Closing date several items were still not complete and the house was not even power washed. the upstairs porch was dirty. Until now they kept saying they are coming to address this issues and had not been here yet. We closed in April

The whole financial department of Lennar was absolutely horrible, very unorganized, changing fees last minute and adding in costs at closing to where I was almost not able to close.

We are pleased with the quality of our new home. The process was smooth and ahead of schedule. We were kept informed of progress throughout the build. The construction manager, Eric, is superb! Very detail-oriented and responsive. All the build teams did high quality work. Definitely recommend!
