Overall good- a few issues

There have been several minor issues that have been resolved quickly. We paid too much for the house because the housing market was crazy when we signed our contract and we were on a waitlist for a while. Now there are several houses for sale right around us. Timing is everything in the housing market. The biggest complaint I have is standing water in our yard after the house next door was completed and water runs down into our yard and pools. The water doesn’t stay long enough for Lennar to consider it a warranty issue with the grading though, so I guess we will have to live with it and ...

Nice sales team but construction quality needs improvement

Materials were decent for this price point, but the quality of workmanship was sloppy in many places - unfortunately common in mass-produced homes in this area. There were quite a few things I had to fix on my own after moving in. The builder, warranty team, and trade partners are very slow to respond to issues. The only issue that was addressed in a timely manner was a gas leak due to the stove not being installed properly. Even then, it was a pain to reach a customer care rep and the plumbing company rep. Sales team was friendly and knowledgeable. Lennar Title rep was unresponsive and ...

NIGHTMARE

  • Rosharon, TX

This has been the worst experience of my life. I honestly would not encourage, suggest, or promote anyone I like, know or trust to purchase a Lennar home. The quality is subpar, the responsiveness to issues is next to never as far as the repair persons actually showing up. There is no flexibility with scheduling, I had to keep taking off work trying to get things repaired in a BRAND NEW HOUSE. NIGHTMARE.....RUN! I gave 1 stars to submit the review

Lennar Waterwheel Home Purchase 9/30/22

  • San Antonio, TX

We faced some challenges right off the bat with our first pick home getting sold, literally as we were signing our salesforce documents, however in the long run we got a much nicer house with better amenities for roughly $200 more a month. After that things went pretty smoothly right up until we had to start dealing with Lennar Finance. It was extremely frustrating having to upload the SAME requested documents MUTLIPLE times, receiving incorrect cash to close amounts, & trying to get ahold of people was like pulling teeth. Also, while dealing with finance, there were mistakes made with our ...

If you’re looking for an over priced home with no adds this is your spot. Keep your expectations extremely low if you decided to build in Troy Estates .

Beware!!! First day I moved in I had a water leak and had to have a wall in my bathroom removed to dry out. Since I have moved in I have opened approximately 10-12 cases and only 2 have been resolved. The workmanship is awful. If you even consider buying from Lennar have an independent inspection.

To be more upfront on what you are really getting instead of leaving you in the dark. (I.e.) ceiling fans, light over the dining room area, to set the water aggregation system back to a normal level. Be more in contact with the customer during the build process.

Great house, below average attention to detail

Great house and the team seem committed to achieve the final items on the exception list. Good surprise offered by the smart home package. However, the finishes are not great, not in line with the value of the house... the customer journey is somewhat engineered, but not well delivered by the different parties. 45 days after the move, the exception list is still open.

Lennar Financial Department and Real Estate Agent where Amazing. Title company Bellamy was horrific, caused multiple issues and were not accountable for there actions. Lennar Build was well below expectations and still has not completed outstanding build issues. Tried to push off on warranty and not close actions on punch list that was created to close with open actions. DO NOT CLOSE WITH WITH ANY OPEN ACTIONS. The one saving grace to my action list has been Zack. He is not the PM one my home, but has taken on the responsibility to complete it. Zack is a Super Hero. His knowledge, morales, ...

The construction of a $500k home rates a Minus on our scale. Super delayed process that was poorly communicated. Stressful and limited communication during the build process. Obvious lack of supervision of poorly skilled workers. The home continues to present endless construction issues. Just wished this product was refundable .

Dissapointed

  • Benjamin D.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • November 15, 2022
  • Carrollton, TX

Bought the home and the move it was rushed. During the inspection the builder hid flaws on the counter top by taping the inspection notice over the defect during the walk thru. Once we closed the build has forced us to go thru the customer care site to fix problems and it has been a nightmare. Customer care rep is unresponsive, has not fixed any of our several issues and when I complained the customer care rep called me and berated me for complaining. 2 months in and I really regret using Lennar. Very disgusted with this builder and will never use or recommend to anyone.

They Call It A Brand New Home.

  • Myrtle Beach, SC

The model home we looked at was absolutely stunning. We were told that we would get the same quality as the model home. That was COMPLETELY 100% not the case. We purchased a brand new home that looked like it was a 20 year old remodel that someone let there brand new employee with no experience do. I will say Kyle the construction manager tried but there was little he was "allowed" to do to correct the issues. The project manager Aaron was extremely rude and arrogant to my husband when we expressed that the house was not 100% and that we didn't feel like we should close on it. We were ...

I think there should be more insulation in the walls or more barrier because I can smell smoke On my first floor and it is unpleasant. Other than that I can’t complain.
