Lennar Reviews

Lennar could do better. In an effort to push out as many homes as possible, they missed the mark on quality and service. It’s unfortunate because it could be a great value, and many of the people involved want to provide a better product and experience.

Be sure you are totally aware of what you will get going in to avoid disappointment. Closets are outfitted cheaply with coated wire that will need to be replaced sooner than expected. Lennar placed houses without regard for privacy, butting patios and windows directly opposite one another and leaving new owners with challenges. Simple mirror image placement would have solved the issue, but there was no thought about that by Lennon. Similar lack of thoughtfulness was shown in our master bathroom design, where the door was positioned to open directly into the wall with the towel rack, result easy for Lennar inconvenient for home owner. Generally the process is get the houses up quickly but without thought! ... More

Sales and our construction manager were the best I’ve ever had throughout my years. Moving from Virginia I had to adjust to the ways of the area. Some materials were at the lower end and some workers didn’t take pride with their job. Still waiting for a warranty item to be fixed for a second time.

We have reported several issues with workmanship, delivery was not timely and communication of change not well managed, issues reported still outstanding and not settled or fixed..

Lennar stands by their homes. I had some issues yet they resolved them. It took a lot longer than I wanted yet it’s done now and I love my home

Quality control isn’t very good.

A couple of weeks after moving into my home, I began to see that doors would not fully close. Floor boards are loose. And a window is cracked. I've listed these issues in another survey with no response.

Although they did a great job at contacting me but they should hire more quality vendors. The rack or hanging shelf in my master closet came off the wall..right after their vendor fixed, it came off again.. i called Lennar warranty service and tell them the closet wall need additional studs to support the shelf. They were more interested and asking me why the vendor did relocate the shelf or maybe there was too much weight, than listening to my concerns.

Almost everything has been fixed.

Many finishing issues and double work for subs to come back and fix. Had issues with garage floor, paint, garage door etc

Nice homes and usually easy to work with. The exception is the management company that Lennar uses; Campbell Properties- They are HORRIBLE! Difficult to get answers to questions and almost impossible to get a call back.

Buyers should receive a gallon of mineral spirits and a box of razor blades at closing to clean up all of paint overspray and tile adhesive. Plus floors were filthy at possession when Lennar had ample time to clean and dead bugs were everywhere!

I don’t recommend. Built fast and cheap!

A lot of avoidable warranty work items.

The granite counter in the kitchen appears to be of second quality with chips along the edges and even in the center, it lacks that rich, smooth feel usually found on good quality granite. The kitchen and vanity cabinet doors were not properly adjusting banging into walls and other cabinets. A tremendous amount of drywall debris and dust in brand new duct work being sucked into the air handler in the attic and blown throughout the vents of the home. Cracks in cement driveway going from one side all the way over to the other side, sealed and then painted so as not to be noticed but instead it makes it even more noticeable. EVP flooring that is nothing more than cheap linoleum that dents and chips so easy that you become afraid to even walk on it and we never wear shoes indoors. Wood handrails get stained but then are not properly sealed leaving them very rough to the touch. I could go on but I think that you get the message. You need to be a mountain goat to mow the yard, when we picked our lot it was at the very beginning all of the land was gently sloping. Now they are terrible lots. Also the homes in this community seems to be all variations of blue/grey....it's like living in a housing project for section 8 occupancy. ... More

Overall, we seem to have a sturdy, structurally sound house, which is the most important. But I have been surprised and disappointed by all the little fit and finish issues that I just didn’t expect to have. I don’t see any pride in the workmanship, in making sure everything was in excellent condition before we moved in. I love my house and would probably do it over again, it’s just sad that the finishing touches were so rushed and overlooked.

I’m sorry to have to leave this comment but we’ve lived in our home for ~6mos and this issue is still as relevant today as it was when we moved in. Our new home was painted with flat paint all over, to include the bathrooms and kitchen. I have never heard of such a thing. I thought Lennar has been building homes for decades and definitely expected this to be a lesson learned many years ago. This is such a negative financial and visual inconvenience. We Can Not practice home maintenance as the walls can not be cleaned up. My husband was a painter for 5 years (residential and commercial) and this was unheard of. This has caused an immediate UNPLANNED financial obligation. I can’t even cook a simple meal without fear of damaging the walls. Finger prints on walls that can not be cleaned. This is very disappointing. At minimum I expect flat paint to be exempt from kitchens and bathrooms. Cluster Mailboxes !?!?!? Why??? The home buyers clearly were left out of this decision. I feel like I live back in an apartment complex 20 years ago. Not to mention, No One mailbox is located in the cluster close to their house. You have to pass 1 or 2 clusters to get to your mail. I’m curious as to why, especially in a neighborhood like this, are we not receiving our mail delivered to the door like all other single family homes. We upgraded our home but downgraded on the amenities..Not happy about stuff like this .... ... More

Should have took my time when buying, checked all of my options.

Definitely lots of issues closing, things to correct and fix after the purchase, some things what were done via a shortcut and we still haven’t gotten our touch up paint kit. The style and layout of the house is great and the color scheme is what we wanted. The size of the lot and location is why we went with Lennar.

Purchased home after a huge fiasco regarding pricing. Felt like I was dealing with a fly by night home consultant. Had to make a deal with the finance department after the quoted price jumped $40K in two days. Bumps along the building process, mistakes fixed. The kitchen island support and other walls are so crooked, hanging pictures is challenging. We finally have a home warranty rep who appears to be getting the ball moving on several repairs. If the house did not have a spectacular view, we would have bought elsewhere. A production home is a production home.

For the price, you’d be better off buying an old house and renovating it to your personal standards.

Nice brand new home but you'll notice quickly that the materials used are not high quality!

The employees are very helpful and the customer service is great. The actual materials used to build the home are not the best...Cabinetry is very flimsy, lighting is minimal and poorly laid out as well as the wall switches.

If they would just do what they eventually do, in a more timely manner, they would be a much better company. You must keep pushing them to get them to do the things they should do without repeatedly asking them.

The finish work is not that great and when you in your work order and they come out to fix their mistakes they make it worse and so you just end up giving up. Most of them do not speak English so you can't communicate with them.
