Lennar Reviews

Not the best at following up. There are a few outstanding issues. A representative has been out. Someone was supposed to return the following week for repairs n such. We haven't heard anything. We've been here 3 months. Overall, I absolutely love the area and our new home.

We were very disappointed in the build quality in several areas and difficulty in getting issues with wrong location of washing machine water and drain piping - took three attempts to get someone to put it in the right place after being told "we leave it to the plumber. Also problems with location of the attic access hole. Supposed to be located in the master closest and not the master bath,. Again took three tries go get it located in the right spot. Then issues with the repairs to wrong location drywall. Big disappointment with cleaning of the home prior to closing. Basement was covered in white dust that got tracked everywhere. The main floor flooring was covered with some type film. They were clearly in a rush to close before they were really ready, and we had to accept it as we'd already sold our house and had the move planned. My overall feeling was that the build team really didn't care about quality and left many things for us to add to warranty. ... More

The new house is horrible they just slap them up. We new this but I didn’t thing it would be this BAD.

I’ve had two Lennar homes and have been very satisfied with the homes and the all in one process they offer! The only thing I have noticed is some of the appliances, kitchen sink are low grade or bottom of the line. If Lennar wants impress even more use top of the line in Everything!

It started as a great experience but quickly turned into a nightmare. Multiple issues during construction were never addressed.

My buying experience has been very disappointing. The quality of workmanship throughout the unit is poor and not what I expected for a property that cost $600K. Cabinetry, flooring, painting, backsplash are all substandard and I have call backs for all areas. Air conditioning unit is so loud it sounds like the runway at the airport and I’m continually told they are “working on it”. It seems these properties are just thrown up and they move on with no regard to quality.

Lennar was very pushy to use their mortgage company from the start, making the process super difficult when we decided to use our outside lender. We moved in in early August and different color cabinets were installed in the kitchen, still hasn’t been replaced. There’s rebar sticking straight out of the foundation above the grass. The sod next to our AC unit that we were told was going to be put in was never done. The AC didn’t work correctly for the first two weeks. I had to pay 500 dollars out of pocket to have an electrician come tell me the ground and neutral in my dryer power outlet we’re shorting together because the neutral insulation was sliced. There are holes popping up in our ceiling now throughout the house and inside the holes are rusty nails. Seems like there’s moisture getting onto the nails and it’s making holes in the ceiling. Seems like the cheapest materials were used in the house. The back of the island in the middle of the kitchen isn’t made out of wood, it’s a cheap flimsy almost cardboard material. I leaned against it one day and almost fell through it. Overall not a good experience. ... More

Sales agent provided misleading information. Sales team anf financial team used alot of buyer intimidation tactics. Repairs were not made from final walk through 45 days after being in the home. Home was not cleaned good for final walk through and move in. Craftsmanship of wotk is very sloppy. No pride in work.

I insist, they must improve the future buyer's evaluation system because they create a state of anxiety in the family every time they request a collection and it feels like you take one step forward in the purchase process and three steps back.

The entire process with Lennar has been amazing. Communication was great throughout the entire process from the initial visit to the community to finalizing our escrow.

Excellent team to work with. Kudos to your staff ... Vic (Sales), Jeremy (PM), Mary (Orientation), Eunice/Jenny (Loan), Customer Care (Lee)! They helped us throughout the entire process. Yes there were delays but we understood. Thank you, everyone! I know I forgot a few names. But thank you to the entire Lennar Staff for helping us move to our forever home.

The Lennar sales team was terrible throughout the entire buying process. Our home closed 5 months after initial projection. This, while frustrating, is understandable given the issues businesses are facing right now. What isn't understandable is the complete dearth of information and even general communication from beginning to end. No explanations were given besides "supply chain issues" and that was when we could get an answer at all. In the end, Lennar's sales team, including management, tried to force is to close on an incomplete home (garage door not working, cabinetry incomplete, water heater not working, etc.) under threat of default on our contract and loss of our earnest money if we didn't. This was the worst home buying experience I could have imagined. Lennar ought to be ashamed of themselves. ... More

First, people were nice. Margaret was helpful and encouraging. Only one issue with Norm where my wife felt like he was suggesting she was not truthful, otherwise he was quite nice. My issue is with Lennar's business model. I've built several custom homes over the years where I have flexibility in making changes, With Lennar - ZERO opportunity for even slight modifications. That's a bit frustrating for someone spending $600K on a house. I really think you should find a way to add some flexibility into the process. I don't expect custom home flexibility, but some.

We put down money sight unseen, going off of reviews and photos of work (this was due to a last minute job transfer and needing a house for a growing family). From day 1 of speaking to the community liaison, we were kept in the loop of construction progress, fall backs, and Changes. When were able to finally see the place in person, we were not disappointed. Then come orientation day, and seeing the final product, we were over the moon with how perfect everything turned out. Outside of normal house issues (really just a few mail pops) the craftsmanship of construction has been phenomenal. Nothing major has gone awry since moving in and we tell ourselves nightly how appreciative, lucky, and how much we absolutely love our new home. Thank you to everyone at lennar here in the PNW for a fantastic buying experience. ... More

Over valued. Had a list of work that was intended to be completed before closing and was never finished. Poor joints in the trim. Home wasn’t clean when we moved in. Exterior and interior paint not finished. Leaking plumbing. Wiring issues with garage doors. HVAC issues. Doors not hung properly. Loose exterior stone.

Worse experience in my life. Lennar has different departments and they don’t communicate with each other. Zach the sales spokesperson for the area was useless, couldn’t be found no text, or call. I seen him only one time out of 5 months. He was always off or on vacation. No help. The builder hired bad contractors to do the plumbing and had multiple leaks that needed to be correct before closing. The cleaning people flooded my house because the builders didn’t tell them they haven’t completed a flow test yet. Abraham my loan officer was unaware of certain charges to his own closing disclosure and couldn’t explain them to me. Even now after a month of being in the house Lennar Title called me and said they forgot to have me sign a document a whole month later. A week before closing the new plumbers found a bulging pipe underneath my house had to rip up the foundation in my kitchen to fix. My closing date moved 5 times from the original June 21 to Aug. 11. I say this emphatically do not, do not chose them as a builder. Only saving grace was Matt after I couldn’t contact with Zach, Matt was there to help me and my family go through the process and keep me updated. To say all of that I wouldn’t have pick them. Good luck. ... More

Prices were severely inflated and the quality of materials is not great for the price paid.

We love our new home and great neighbor.

Buying experience and process was nice and smooth.

Globs of cement all over garage floor. Globs o f cement between garage floor and beginning of driveway and a 2 inch height difference between garage floor and driveway leading to myself and guests tripping (very dangerous). Hardware missing on door lock to back porch. Masterbath shower drain corroded with tile red and white plaster :(totally unsightly). Cement splattered all over trim of outside garage door and all along front of garage where floor meets driveway, etc. One thumbs up nice quality kitchen appliances.

We love and enjoy the openness and space of the home.

Although the closing procedure was stressful, Jeff our agent was awesome. He came through in the end. I would only tell the team of agents working in one office to work as a team. Jeff gave information to them when he was due out of town. They played like they knew nothing when we asked questions. We love Jeff.

Construction began 9/9/21 moved into incomplete unfinished home 8/15/22 with assurances that quality control issues would be completed in a timely manner. Communication as to expectations has been none to weak today is 9/27/22 still have no bathroom mirrors or glass for an example. Stay calm be patient.

Post handover I raised 2 tickets, but first followup call happened to know what the issue is. Post that when they will come is unknown

My overall 3 star experience rating is based on my experience with the mortgage side of Lennar. Construction team and sales team were great.
