Lennar - I had bought several new homes from kbhome, century communities

I had bought several new homes from kbhome, century communities and Lennar. Lennar workmanship is the worst I have seen and to name a few, you can see the paint roller on the ceiling, nails sticking out of baseboard, cracks in the bath tubs, etc....My main complain is the interior and exterior paint quality and workmanship. It seems the painter didn't care and just paint one layer of paint instead of severals and be done with the job. I even can paint better than them. As far as materials quality, they are by far the bottom comparing with others builders and a very disappointment since I ...

Wonderful community, excellent homes, and helpful sale, mortgage, and builder teams.

You pay for what you get and even more with Lennar. The builder is trustworthy in that it builds what it advertises. There were issues during the process, but they were quickly resolved satisfactorily by the sales, mortgage, and builder teams. We've been enjoying our new house in an excellent community for more than 1 and a 1/2 months. Of course, there were problems registering the house with the USPS (huge problems for other stuff), but that's not the builder's responsibility. I would highly recommend buying a new Lennar home for everyone.

It clear that quality has taken a backseat to profitability with Lennar.

  • John K.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 16, 2022
  • Aurora, CO

My home has many issues from minimal to major. The craftsmanship is terrible and so is the follow-up on the backend via warranty. The cheapest solution is sought in every case and typically requires numerous attempts. This was my first experience buying a new build and has turned me off from it completely. At this point I want to get the home in a condition where I can put it back in the market and put this terrible experience behind me. I have had hvac issues, structural issues, grading issues causing the front lawn to be swampy, missing screens, bowed flooring, warped decking, exposed ...

Very Poor home buying experience

  • Wesley Chapel, FL

I had a very very unhappy home buying experience with Lennar. Starting from the sales to finance to home construction, ar every step, the whole experience was very unpleasant and compromising. The quality of the construction was suboptimal and there are multiple visible flaws that were not corrected even after they were reported in the inspections. The new home walkthru and final inspection process was so painful with so many open issues and construction manager was not ready to fix. To make the matters worse, I was promised some fixes which I had to follow-up multiple times. The way my home ...

The window of the home was given broken and 2 months after closing many issues are not resolved yet. The people just focus on closing tickets without resolution.

Lennar - Overall, a great home for us, but kitchen cabinets are an inch

  • Ronald N.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 16, 2022
  • Longview, WA

Overall, a great home for us, but kitchen cabinets are an inch less in depth as typical (11 inches instead of 12), and corner cabinets are inaccessable. Also internet company Lennar contracted with never came through. Will probably be at least six more months before they do. This is not Lennars fault, but they knew in advance that internet was going to be delayed and never told us.

We were fortunate enough to stumble onto this course and fell on love with it instantly. We just retired and we’re considering on a home away from home. When made are way to the sales office after our round. The salesman Brooks was friendly and full of information. He gave us a tour of their models and within a few days we were owners. The course, the lake and that sunset just did it for us. A must place to visit if you are looking for a home. Cheers,

I buying a Lennar home was a dream come true, until it became a nightmare. The quality of the materials use is more than poor, so is the workmanship. Tiles are uneven, frames are bad, house feels weak, carpet and floors are not set properly. House was never prepare or clean as promise, defective electrical appliances. Overall a very bad experience, that I wish I could get out off...

Worst home buying experience ever

  • Anonymous

  • Las Vegas, NV

Was told by the sales person they’re not making this style of home anymore, when I stated I would wait for similar model in different location. Now I see same model being built I’m different location, for $50K cheaper. House was filthy when I moved in, construction dust on all the window sills. Door to garage doesn’t close all the way. Hole in the ceiling that took a month for someone to finally pick up. Water started leaking through my ceiling 2 weeks into ownership. Now there’s a bigger hole in my ceiling. They’re allegedly taking care of it, I have no communication when contractors are ...

Buying an unfinished home

  • Melbourne Beach, FL

This has been my worst experience buying a new home. This is my 3rd. I closed the house because the bank told me that a delay will raise the Interest rate. In that moment I was trapped. I moved to a house with no bath vents, loose floor tiles, no windows sills or painting completed, wavy drywalls, and a long etc. after 2 months and a half living here lennar haven’t repaired a single screw. Oh yes, they repaired the main entrance door because I lived there with no door lock for the first 3 days.

Make sure you check EVERYTHING. We have had issues with gas from the stove the sprinklers and I’m noticing some craftsmanship flaws (vent cut outs too long so there’s are cuts not covered by the vents) and a space on the kitchen floor thats not level. First world problems so all in all a lovely home that I’m proud to own. Can’t wait until the HOA fees will be worth it (pool, parks etc)

Lennar - The closing was forced as the home was not completed.

  • Brian M.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 16, 2022
  • Fort Myers, FL

The closing was forced as the home was not completed. We had over 2 dozen things that needed completed. If we didn't close the day we did the interest rate went way up. Seven weeks after closing we still have at least 10 items on the punch list still needing completed. Knowing who to talk to at Lennar is irritating. The sour experience we are still going through has ruined the sweetness of buying our final new home.
