Lennar Reviews

Be prepared to pay more than advertised. Option costs are not included in web pricing and every house gets option adds. Be prepared to pay more the day you sign a contract. Our home went up mysteriously $10K the night before we were scheduled to sign a contract. Dishonest business practice. Fit and finish is something to be desired. If you are OK with no screens on patio doors, no gutters, permanently mounted toilet paper holders too small to hold toilet paper rolls, poor concrete work, lowest grade carpet and padding you can find, no outside lighting over the garage door, a garage too small for most SUVs and pickups, a two-car garage that can really only handle one car, no storage whatsoever, crammed into 5 feet of separation between you and your neighbor on both sides, narrow driveways, and narrow streets, then this is the perfect home for you. Once you move in, you just start noticing these things. ... More

We bought this amazing home this year and we are very blessed. The sales home consultants Laurie and Jackie went above and beyond for us. They were there for us every step of the way from day one until they handed us the keys to our new home!!! We were planning on using Lennar’s lender to take advantage of all they’re great incentives but their lender, Leslie, was terrible. I can’t say one good thing about her. As first time home buyers she left us in the dark and never reached out or informed us about anything. My wife and I were having to do our own research about the next steps on buying a house and then reaching out to Leslie to ask about what is going on. She would never answer our calls, email us 5 days after and when we would schedule an appointment with her she would never reach out. Then after countless calls she would call us back saying “ what do you need?” Obviously a lender that does her job that’s what we need. After months of dealing with her we ended up dropping her and choosing an outside lender who went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be happier. Even after we dropped Leslie she would reach out asking for the loan approval that out new lender got us because Leslie wanted to take back over. She was lazy and tried to take the credit for work she did not do. She made us feel like we were a joke and could not afford this home because we were young. Almost as if we were just wasting her time. ... More

Lennar kept in contact with me throughout building process. Their staff guided me through the procedures and paperwork and responded promptly when I had questions, concerns and minor warranty issues.

My Lennar experiences are mostly good. My home is beautiful, and I am pleased to be in it. Questions were asked and answered fairly quickly during the build. If time was needed to obtain an answer but was delayed the string of communication was open and straight forward. Once in the home some items were not completed from the punch list. Important issues arose for instance no electrical on the outside of the house. A call was placed but no return call. The air conditioner was not working for several days at the beginning of my move in calls were made but no response back. All in all, this has been a good experience. I would buy from them again. ...

Lennar, where to start with you!!!! ABSOLUTELY the worst home buying experience. It literally took my having to locate Greg (Lennar Homebuilding and Land Regional President) via his personal cell phone number while he was at home to understand how someone by the name of Kelli (Director of Sales & Marketing) could be such a heartless, cold, foul individual!?! It wasn’t until this stage in the process we actually had a conversation with someone in Lennar Corp who actually had brain cells, and functional ears. For that, I thank you Greg. You were the first person in Lennar corporate that actually had a heart, listened to what was happening to us (through no fault of our own) and actually took the time to make the situation right. Well Kelli attempted to call me and take credit for the suggested workaround, however it was the workaround that both Greg & I had discussed during our conversation. As for on-site, here at the Gales Creek location in Forest Grove! Starting from Jason, going to Emilio, and ending with Melissa & Allison. These (4) were ABSOUTELY amazing! I feel bad that great people like the (4) I had mentioned above, are stuck “bearing the repercussions” of Kelli’s poor leadership. Her decision making, lack of empathy, and absolutely FOUL communication skills really puts these wonderful employees in a disadvantageous position. I hope these (4) employees are recognized for all their efforts because they were the saving grace in this whole nightmare. I hope I NEVER have to do business with Lennar again for the remainder of our lives. Good riddance, I hope y’all wake up and reassess how y’all treat people. We understand it’s a sellers market, but the people purchasing your homes are still your customers as well. You should somewhat care about their overall experience when it comes to interacting with your company. Oh, btw. As for the quality. We bought a duplex, and I know we have separate walls (I’ve seen it with my own eyes during the construction phase). However on our shared wall area, you can hear everything your neighbor does. I can hear our neighbor snore at night. Make what you will of that as for their “quality” ... More

This was our second time purchasing a Lennar home. However, their “everything’s included” motto is no longer, it’s especially disappointed since the price was double than our first home. Sellers agent was a terribly difficult to work with and made the buying experience unpleasant.

Robyn and David were great!!

Don’t want to say anything

Quality is not met and not satisfied the customer needs

A lot of things could have been done with more care.

Experience was great. Quality workmanship and materials were awesome! But refrigerator's water and ice dispenser was not fully operational and I cant get them to replace it. The warranty contact was not helpful at all, no trouble call ticket provided and it seems like nothing has happened.

Lennar representatives Carissa, Joel, Jose and Martha have ruined the new home buying process …

Better than I expected

No out of state home buying experience is easy. We purchased this home site unseen. It worked out for us due to the trustworthiness of our salesmen. Mark provided regular honest updates. So far Lennar has been responsive with warranty issues and have followed up. I would definitely recommend this builder to my friends and family!

great designs for all the homes

Several items in the house do not work and Lennar won’t correct

So-so craftsmen work around the house.

If you are considering buying one of these homes talk to some of the home owners that already live in one.

The workmanship on the interior walls is very bad, when doing the walk through there were no lights in the home, so we could not see how bad it really was, but now that we have lights, the walls are terrible. The dryer was not installed incorrectly because the set screw was not tightened on the cord and that caused smoke and arcing, we have not had a dryer in 3 weeks. The tree in the backyard has been leaning almost to the ground since we moved in and looks terrible. Overall, I am very disappointed in the quality of work for a 2036 square foot home that we paid $441,000, I expected more from Lennar and could not possibly recommend them to friends or family. ...

The overall experience was just easy and everyone goes the extra mile if you need help

I paid $20,000.00 More then some of my neighbors for a premier lot . I cannot get out my screened in back door because of the extreme pitch . This lot is unusable as is. I cannot traverse this landscape at all .My 4 year old grandson opened the screened in backdoor and fell out rolling down the pitch and hitting his head on the Irion drain ! I ve spoken to several people from Lennar . All have not much to say expect this is the worst lot in here that they have seen to date and nothing has been done ,no one has a business card to give me no one from Lennar will give me there contact information. to say shady is an under statement no transparency at all ! My neighbors and I are fed up, as my lot directly effects there lots .Water drainage is a huge problem wrap up with all the other problems I have to deal with on a daily bases . This is a 55 plus community REALLY ! To date my experience with Lanner is bad to very bad and keeps on getting worst .I will be seeking help ... More

We had a lot of fun and excitement with our new home purchase. The overall quality of work has been good, the only issues we had during the process is that the construction crew left a pretty decent amount of small paint drops all over the carpet. There were a few little areas of the rug that were also pulling up slightly and fraying parts at some of the edges of the carpet where it tucks into the seam at the walls, nothing major. Overall we are pretty happy with the house. There were some scratches on the appliances that magically appeared after our initial walk through as well, but overall it’s liveable and we feel like we got the bang for our buck. ... More

Love the builder ,great community to live in.

Wonderful experience with the team

Steve did a great job addressing any of the issues we had and still stops to check on thing when through the neighborhood
