Lennar Reviews

Lennar sales person is very nice and helpful, other workers don’t trust , When you buy a house from them before closing need to be very careful check everything if they don’t fix them you have to fix them on your own. Like my gate to backyard from day one we bought the house cannot keep closing have to use a zip tie to zip the gate not very professional job , lay dead grass and blamed you not watering it ,

We’ve had an okay experience. A lot of the finishes are cheaper quality with things missing like towel racks, toilet paper holders etc that you don’t realize won’t come with it. The way they dramatically slope the small sides of the home also just make mud pits on both sides of your house and our neighbors are having the same issues. We’re on the edge of the path and Lennar still hasn’t put sod down on the path along our yard so it’s another mud pit now overrun with weeds.

I feel we got good value for what we paid, workmanship and material was sub par compared to other local builders.

1-extremely disappointed in the lawn. Sod looks like it was laid by a child because there are gaps galore! The seed that was laid on the sides and back almost refuse to grow because it was not watered properly or regularly prior to us moving in. There are brown areas all over. The dirt used was the wrong dirt and wasn't graded because there are so many rocks and stones like construction dirt was used. I had to throw down more seed, i water twice faily, and am only getting patches of grass. Whoever the lawn company is, why don't they come on the same day of the week? We were told it would be every Friday but they've come on Wednesdays and Thursdays. 2-why is Lennar in charge of the HOA? BC Communities has all the say not the residents. It shouldn't matter how many people are in the community. At least one of us should be allowed on the board. 3-workmanship on our house SUCKS. We see where they've screwed up but tried to hide the imperfection with paint, caulk, or putty. There are even faults they didn'rt fix! 4-we were told there was an old cemetary by the tree line across the new road from us, but that was a lie because it's right next to our house! 5-why is there no activites director? WE NEED ONE! 6-the house is not senior friendly. The windows are too high and are single hung indtead of double. There are no bars in the shower and we weren"t given the option. The shower isn't easy to get in and out of because yhe bottom piece is too high. 7-because our previous house sold in 2 days and the buyers wanted to move within 30 days we were in a bind. We wanted to buy in Bridgeville but would have had to wait several months for the house to be built so we kept looking and voila! You had one already built and we could move in pretty quickly. Extremely disappointedwith this community. I think i might be missing some things, but i'll continue my list.' ... More

I am happy with the quality of the home. If lennar finishes swimming pool, children's play ground, and other amenities listed asap- I think it will be really helpful for us. Thank you

Sinc the closing, more and more problems have appeared.... Ugh

We are still learning important rules and regulations that we were not told when looking to buy. Payments made to four different entities. Discovered poor workmanship on several areas

Make sure punch list items are done before closing.

This home built quality is 5 out of 10, things left unfinished, they used the cheapest materials, walls get scuffed up and damaged very easily. Outside ground under lawn is very soft, you walk over it and you will sink about 3 4 inches. Walls are not built straight, they just want to make money on you. If you comment about their work because you seen too many unprofessional workmanship on the house, they don’t like the way you talk with them. Any body gets mad for the bad quality of house they get. We paid for it at least they can do is do good quality work, even if they using cheap materials. There are more stuff to say but don’t have time for it. Money don’t come easy for people to buy a house. ... More

Make sure you do your walk-thru!

I expected the overall buying process to be easier when using all Lennar companies (builder, lender, insurer, etc), but that was not the case. Home build quality is good but not great - needed tradesmen out to the house twice to correct issues within the first month.

The mortgage and sales people were great and very helpful, however the home orientation experience was nothing short of horrific. I asked for fixes that to this day have not been implemented (almost 2 months after closing). My home orientation person seemed to be completed ambivalent to our needs, would not respond unless repeatedly contacted. We did a home inspection report and it literally took a month for this guy to finally address the issues (1 still hasn't to this day) after repeated attempts. I called the main call center and asked specifically to be assigned to a different home orientation person and I would like to speak to manager of the currently assigned individual. Request was ignored and I kept having to deal with this guys indifference to his job. Frankly I already written a review about this so if you're not going to take action, stop wasting people's time and asking for their reviews. Workmanship seems cheap since everything seems to be made of drywall and need anchors to hang things from walls. If someone asked me would you purchase a Lennar home i would probably say no. ...

Hard time getting issues fixed after walk through. Still have items that need to be addressed

Affordable house. I understand I was getting a house cheaper than the rest of the market average and that's what I feel like I got. Not a fan of the process you walk the house prior to your closing date and get told no need to point out every defficiency they'll all get addressed. Then you walk it right before closing and get told "if we didn't point it out last time we can't address it now". When you get told that feels very scummy. Had a plumbing leak week of move in. Items were not addressed prior to closing but that's on me for agreeing to sign. Main construction lead not a pleasant guy to deal with. Warranty lead is nice enough but communication is terrible. Office people told me wrong closing date and never apologized or mentioned it. You take off work days ahead of time for the date to be wrong and only find out when talking to the mortgage side of things. Frustrating. Overall affordable house and I got what I paid for so I'm grateful. Am I making sure my home insurance is at max coverage and lowest deductible you bet. Thank you lennar. ... More

The baseboards are all cardboard. They never finished our yard. The roads are always clogged with construction workers all over the place. They wake you up banging at 6 am. The closets all needed to be braces downstairs. The construction vehicles have created cracks in our driveway. We have found more paint issues. Our first person dealing with Pam was awesome and extremely helpful but from there very lackluster.

The sales process was great, and the person helping me handle the paperwork was responsive. The Lennar insurance team is terrible in that you have to chase them down for them to do their job, and even then, they don't do a good job at following through the whole process and ensuring your policy is in effect. They blame their system and customers for emails not being sent. The workmanship is terrible, and the place is filthy. Construction workers have no respect for the property, and you need to spend hours and close to a thousand dollars cleaning the place and shampooing the carpet. The walls are not aligned correctly, and the doors don't provide a seal. The floors are also not leveled, and the problem is hidden by laying over carpet. I'm lucky to get 20 years out of a Lennar home when they are supposed to last 100 years. ... More

We did the walkthrough with the house dirty.(fatal) Paint work terrible, wood trim prep work poor quality. Warranty team is excellent.

Beautiful layout and new home, although there are issues that had to be addressed at a significant expense. Water is badly calcified, sump pump was cheap and not working properly, still issues that have to be addressed. Nice location and development though.

Materials quality is not that great

Please check every inch before buying the home, as this is you own house.

Poor quality and response to incidents are very bad. Response to tickets is very bad. Nominal quality materials.

Lennar, is a good builder, but they have omitted small things you expect in most older homes, such as medicine cabinets, towels bars/racks in bathrooms, extra paint for touch-ups, the appliances that come with most homes are very basic, and the SID or LID is put on the homeowners to pay now.

Materials for the home is ok. Purchased a 2 story home and when walking on the second floor, you can hear the steps. Carpet is ok, needs more cushion. Moved in and needed some fixing such as air vent switches in the bathroom kept turning on for no reason, air ducks had major issues with air flow with some room having a lot of air and some having very little like the master bedroom. The dryer plug in the laundry room was broken. The roof had a leak and it’s been 3 weeks and it’s still not fixed. Issues between Lennar and the solar company. They are still trying to fix it. Had to get an electrician to come fix it. Still finding issues with the house here and there. When purchasing the home, there were some issues with communications and was going to be charged for a solar battery of $10k which we were not going to get the battery. If we didnt question about the battery, we would’ve been charge the $10k on the purchase price. ... More

I still do not have items repaired. I missed my closing due to the home not being done. I was misled numerous time and I have no trust in the construction team. My sales rep was just that a sales person. Made many promises that never was every followed up on after the purchase

The Villa is beautiful. The material is cheaply made. The driveways cannot hold 2 cars and there is no parking. The street is extremely small. Lastly, we were quoted 115 for HOA and after closing we find out it is 167. Would have just liked the transparency.
