Lennar - Our experience with our sales rep, Cheryl, was outstanding.

  • Rebecca B.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 16, 2022
  • Coatesville, PA

Our experience with our sales rep, Cheryl, was outstanding. She is super responsive and kind, and went out of her way to answer all of our questions. It's clear that she has a great relationship with the community. Scott was very good throughout the mortgage process. As for the builder, even though we had hired a private inspector before drywall and at final walk through, there are still flaws in the door frames (chinks), baseboards (big chinks), and floor planks (defective) that need to be addressed. The flaws that the inspector did catch and that were ultimately addressed were glaring ...

Rushed to closing service is bad after.

We were rushed to close and they were not ready they could’ve taken another couple weeks and gotten things situated. After I came back from the settlement table I came back to a house that had no front door they still cannot fix a problem with with the door that they had so they took the entire front door off. There follow up on a bunch of things is really really bad

This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. Lennar cares only about profits and quality of work, nor customer services/experience. Stay away from Lennar they are a rip-off.

Very Little Communication and Poor Workmanship

  • Sherry M.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 16, 2022
  • Ruskin, FL

They slap up homes so quickly that the workmanship is that of a high school kid in a building and trades class. The appliances appear to be all scratch and dent. The warranty repairs take forever and promises are made and not followed up on. Overall, I would not recommend Lennar to anyone. I thought Pulte was bad!

Not a legendary experience

  • Audrey H.

Unfortunately this time around, buying lennar was not a legendary experience. Lots of delays, cancel inspection without prior notifications, final closing postponed x3-4 times. Too many Customer care representatives and no one up front to attend the customer concerns.. Do want to thank Mrs Oliveira from title/closing for her professionalism and Mr Mike McCarthy for his attention to detail.

Worse FIRST TIME BUYER EXPERIENCE

  • Josue P.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 16, 2022
  • Crandall, TX

What can I say….for it being my first time buying a house, this was the worse experience ever. If I buy another home, later on, I’ll make sure it isn’t with Lennar. Try contacting them and seeing the status on everything….no response. Oh, by the way, you need 13k tomorrow for the closing. They moved the closing a week early and expect you to have the closing cost for the next day at 4 pm the day before—worse communication between buyer and seller. House has had so many issues that when you put in a work order request, they want you to sign that it’s been fixed even if it hasn’t even been ...

Good: Economic house in growing community. Decent neighbors for the most part. Larger yard than other new home options in the area. Plenty of sq footage for the price (compared to other new home options) Bad: Curved Walls and Ceiling Lines everywhere. Like every room or closet. Kitchen appliances and cabinets feel cheap. Painting overall pretty poor. Everything looks rushed without a care about final look. Also poor cleanup with paint splatters everywhere and not cleaned as promised during the new home orientation walkthrough. Having seen the trim before painting, it was very poor ...

Waste of Money. Poor Quality and Service.

  • Saicharan G.

It’s just been more than a month and we have raised 10+ service request already. We entered into our new home and hot water won’t work. Pipe leaked in basement. Cabinet door came off. Switch won’t work. AC stopped working and they said they need 3 weeks to fix it and punished me to suffer in high temperatures inside the home. Would never recommend lennar to anyone.

Poor work and construction quality

  • Danika N.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 14, 2022
  • Spring City, PA

The purchase and mortgage process was quick, efficient, and Scott walked us through the mortgage process step by step. The walk through was organized, but a lot of "blue tape” areas were listed. Unfortunately, at the closing most of these blue tape areas were not addressed. We were led to believe they would be fixed while we signed our closing documents. Three months later, blue tape items are still not addressed. Living in the house, we have noticed there are a lot of deficiencies with the quality and finishing of construction. It has been a long and ongoing struggle to work with Lennar to ...

Best Loan Officer, Ok customer rep, Bad Sales Rep

  • Anonymous

  • August 13, 2022
  • McKinney, TX

We had a very bad experience with our sales agent. No transparency. He was just trying to misfeed the information and push us through closing. We had to push the closing three time just because the home was not ready. Our sales agent thought it was ready for him to close all the three times. I had to fight to push the closing. All I was requesting was to give me a home that's complete by the time we close. It was very stressful to deal with our sales agent since the signing of the contract. He made our first home buying experience a nightmare. Our Lennar loan officer was really good. We ...

Experience of buying a new home has brought me too many bad experiences to write a good review what was supposed to be a good experience quickly turned into a nightmare due to poor workmanship. Lack of service from Lennar home building team no one ever had answers and never kept promises as to when home was going to be completed issues never address properly

Hi, I recently bought a single family house in Grand Texas community. The house is very spacious and great. I felt finishing could have been better a bit. I didn’t like the kitchen and bathroom counters. The wash basin in both the bathrooms r very small and low quality finish. Rest of the house is great. Backyard is not done properly, the ground is bumpy. Can’t walk without getting ankle twisted. But the buying process and paper works done smoothly. Overall happy to buy this property.
