Lennar Reviews

Warranty service team is very bad with my experience

I was given two gate fobs about a week after I closed on my property and they do not work. Three different requests have been made to rectify this problem and I still haven’t heard back from the current HOA manager. The far gate remains open 24//7 but I would like to have this problem rectified as soon as possible. Also my name is not on the gate directory! Why is this when I closed on 12/20? Please follow up with these issues.

Beautiful but could use improvements on quality.

We love our new home. The homes that Lennar build are beautiful. The sales agent Iolando was above and beyond great! She was so informative and so helpful. We would have passed on our purchase if it was not for her. The only negative experience thus far is that the building manager will not respond to communication about concerns dealing with minor fixes. Hopefully, he will soon.

The list is so extensive of what was done wrong including burying ATT fiber box so lawn is dug up. Flooding my backyard sp can't put up fence. Andis unusable. I could go on.

Great salesperson in lennar office. Very helpful and informative. Project manager was very helpful and informative as well during walk through.

My overall experience was not bad. I adore Michael C that did my walk throughs. I did not have the same experience with the sales rep on site. She was on the verge of rude more often than not. I also have not enjoyed the fact that there seems to have been miscommunication on what my town I actually live, I am a month in and still don't know what my address is : Fountain Inn or Simpsonville : even the utility companies have the address listed differently.....but I love my home,

To many people asking for the same information

Lennar has a good reputation so we trusted them. The overall experience for us is alright. Agent was good but as soon as we signed the contract, her responses become less and less and far in between. We noticed as we moved in how Lennar has cut on a lot of things that we expect from a new home built. On the second bathroom upstairs, it is missing a towel rod by the sink, the windows are all fake window in the bathrooms. You cannot open any of them, so you cannot even air your bathrooms. For the price we paid, we were hoping to have these little details taken cared of instead of us worrying about it. ... More

Responsiveness to issues post settlement has been great, however, we were not as pleased with the sales experience.

Attention to details as discussed in person. Several items we discussed were left incomplete from the original report. I did advise that my home back in GA was closing and I needed things listed completed. Less than month into my new home and we have a leak in the guest bathroom that I found while storing some things away. When I walked through final inspection, home was still being worked on. Told it would be cleaned and ready to go, but it was not. Nonetheless, I had to move and get ready to go back to work asap. At this point I’ll do my best to cleanup and repair / replace items left off. Carlo Torres was a great to work with. Answered all my questions and kept me on other available property’s within the community. When I lost the first property to another buyer, he quickly worked with me to locate another model within a few days. ... More

Tom the salesman is a 5 star! He was responsive and very informative Easy to work with and followed up. David in the mortgage process is also a 5 star. Great to work with and made the process smooth and easy. Eric in Warranty is a 5 star plus. Did excellent follow through and kept us informed. Was very responsive. Won’t list his name but construction manager is a 1. If it was only him I dealt with I wouldn’t buy the house. No follow through, failed to deliver promises and non responsive. Overall I love the house and highly recommend Lennar homes. Great quality and well priced. I would buy another Lennar home ... More

Still new at the property. Discovered some minor issues. Tried to use the online portal to report them but, it doesn’t really work. The electrical issues reported to the contractor but still not fixed. It took them about 3 weeks to fix the broken fence.

Buying the home was the easiest process. Everyone was so attentive and kind. Trying to get ahold of anyone now to go over things or answer questions is impossible.

I FELT RUSHED FOR THERE STUFF AND MY QUESTIONS COULD WAIT SOME FOR DAYS.

This was the worst mortgage transaction I have ever experienced. Communication was minimal, our concerns were not addressed in a timely manner, and our loan was not cleared to close until the last minute. Thankfully, we had the best realtors guiding us throughout the process. The final walkthrough process was a joke. Third time was a charm for us. After moving in we found so many issues, mostly minor, that should have been addressed prior to moving in, but customer service had been great. Josh has been very responsive and has made sure everything is taken care of.

We never once met the construction:site manager and was never once asked if I’d like to visit the property during construction, so I just went myself many times on my own. Past homes we have always met and got to know the person responsible for our new home. Lennar- never. The sales associate was great but we had to ask her things that really were not her job because there was no other contact. For price paid more upgrades would have been good- no fridge freezer or washer dryer. After our inspection it took a few visits for them to fix some but not all. No body ever communicated to us about what would and wouldnt be repaired. More of a guessing game. Closing was not ready- house was not clean and doors not placed although we had noted these on walk through. Just seemed like we were unimportant. The fence policy was not given to us - this was a long fight to win. Positive- the house is nice and survived the hurricane without damage. ... More

There are many mistakes on the finished floor, there are spaces between the boards and pieces of the underlying material sticking out between the boards of 5he floors. Also on the floors and thresholds are dents and I was told by the first person assigned to see my problems that I had to wait 60 days before complaining. Another big issue is the fact that we don’t have a mail box yet and of course there is no delivery for packages available to us either. Hope they resolve all of these issues soon

The overall buying experience with Lennar was a very pleasant one and was a smooth process all the way through closing. The staff was very helpful and attentive prior to closing. My concerns and negative feedback is a result of post closing ownership. Following the closing on our home it seemed like we were forgotten about within the first 30 days. We had issues that arose within the first 30 day period that were ignored despite constant phone calls and messages sent. The other issue was the attention to detail around the outside of the house in reference to construction debris and trash left around the property. My daughter was in the backyard and was trying to pull something out of the ground which turned out to be two rusty saw blades and numerous pieces of trash covered by pine straw or buried in the dirt. Despite the negatives I would still recommend Lennar as the homes and closing processes are wonderful! ... More

Hi I have started with short period liked the house. Initiated all process on loan and negotiation. They put home of the week for the less price with discount and when we were talking to finalize. They came up with increasing prices. They play a lot of tricks and look for what most benefits to them. They offer very less interest rates to many customers but they don't disclose. They accidentally exposed in one email and they covered up.

With all the things going on in my life nothing is easy. I came from a home that a friend built and I loved for 22 years and I had people I could call to fix things but not so here. I have to register my own appliances-there are staples in the carpeting and it is hard adjusting but I will get there. The neighbors are nice and I am taking it day by day.

The prebuilt town homes have very cheap appliances. I had to replace all of the appliances. The town homes also do not come with can lights throughout, so expensive to add on a town home with upstairs. It is a dark place later when the sun goes down. I had a lot of issues since I moved in which is not normal, as I have purchased 3 new homes in the past from different builders without any issues.

The overall value of the house for what I paid is reasonable. However, when buying a new house, I do not expect things to have been installed incorrectly or cover-up made when contractors clearly broke something. It wasn’t until I took my first shower and my brand new home that I noticed the Shower liner had a crack at the top that had clearly been attempted to be covered up with caulk. At the top of the shower area there is about a 3 inch crack that had a thin layer of caulking over top that blended in and without being up close and personal, I could not see. Obviously, when it was installed, the contractor pushed too hard and cracked the wall, covered it and just carried on like nothing happened. I did call Lennar‘s warranty and they offered to repair it. However, I stated it needed to be replaced as I didn’t buy a new house to have something like that just covered up down the line there could be water damage possibly from The crack. They did replace it, but it was still a major inconvenience for me as I had to take the time first for a virtual appointment, then take a day off to wait for a plumber to come change it, and then have to wait for drywall people to come and fix the drywall. so now I do have a new shower wall, but I had to deal with the thin dust that was left behind from the drywall repair spend hours cleaning that. It now clearly looks like the shower lining has been cut out and re-drywall as it will never be a seamless line like it should be if it had just been done properly the first time. There have also been several other things such as the flooring is separating in several places which could just be from the foundation settling, or again from crappy contractors. Every door handle on every door has had to be re-tightened. I have also found trash underneath the sod and several other places as the contractors clearly were unable to find trash cans to throw their trash away . ... More

This is a brand new home. We are aware it's not custom still doesn't mean when you move in there should be so many issues. Stop using the cheapest materials. We hung a small picture and the sheet rocks just fell apart. We have had a problem with almost every Appliance. I told my son I wanted new because I felt it was less stress I was wrong. The Trades were horrible. Cabinets were Cheap and doors warped. We've had so many problems. That being said. The staff is fantastic from sales,Mortgage,title and even after the sale they were great.. this is my advice if anyone wants to improve. Stop using useless trades to save a buck.have your construction Forman walk through the home prior to the customer walk through and then have the customer once its fixed..When we walked through it was a hot mess very disappointing. Even though they fixed 90% it just showed how the workmanship was crap.. ... More

Home looks fine, but sloppy builds. cabinets are not leveled, cabinet door rubs against base when opening, a lot of edges need caulk as there’s small cracks, paint thinned/cracks on top of walls. Tons of smaller details. No window screens, no fans, and little things they can do to improve. Overall good experience, but could definitely step it up for a better review!
