Little bit "meh".

We were happy with the initial buying process and incentives. We like the standard upgrades. We do not care for the pre walk process. We had to do the final walk 2 hours before closing. We were unable to change the time which left us feeling rushed. There were excessive cosmetic issues which means we have to wait until month 11 to have those fixed since there was no time. The flooring company left us extra flooring and it was here during pre walk, but was taken before we closed. No one can tell us the paint base. So a free gallon of touch up paint is useless without that information. There ...

No attention to detail

  • Charleston, SC

For the amount of money we spent on this new build, we are unsatisfied with the quality of work and very little attention to detail that we have found, and continue to find. The walls are extremely thin... we can hear everything inside and out.. and the home doesn't seem to be well insulated (drastic temp difference from room-to-room). Some of our windows were not level and the spackle within the window sills is terrible (uneven, not sanded well). The quality of the paint used in the home is like chalk. Even the lightest brush up against a wall and you've got a mark or scuff that can't be ...

Rushed poorly designed house

  • Woodbridge, VA

Of the three new home builds we have purchased in our lifetime this one has by far been the most troublesome. Starting with the walk through there were dozens of issues that basically looked like no one had done any quality control (Multiple paint colors, large unpainted patches, lose fixtures, broken fiber port to name a few) Over the past 2 months we have had dozens of contractor visits to fix things and as of writing still have around half a dozen outstanding issues. The management is nice but the contractors they hire do poor work and need to come back multiple times, I am mentally ...

The trades that were hired did not do a good job. The drywall and painting is horrible. There are several issues with the house. The amount of effect put into this home was sub par.

We had a nightmare moving to our new Lennar home in Rosemount. We had several issues with most of the appliances(Refrigerator, Cooking range, Dishwasher) doors, weather strips. We had service personals at home every other day for a month to fix issues. New home consultant helped us escalating issues and replacing defective appliances. Warranty support representative addressed most of the issues on time.

The poor attention to detail in the trim work and painting.

you get what Lennar builds. No changes allowed. It's a tract development and they are putting them up as fast as they can sell them. For that reason, attention to detail is your responsibility. If you see something wrong point it out and don't quit until it is fixed. I've owned it for 3 months and am fixing the trim and have already experienced roof leaks.

Bidding Process ruined our experience

  • Michael B.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • January 22, 2022
  • Escondido, CA

Overall our experience with Lennar was decent. However, what left a sour taste in our mouth was when Lennar decided to change the buying process to a bidding war. It went from going down the priority list (all on list were prequalified through their lender) and offering the houses for their respective set price, to opening it up to everyone on the list and forcing us bid against each other. Only 1 bid allowed so it should be best and final. We did that and progressively started bidding higher and higher above the “Lennar starting at price”. I know the housing market was booming but we were ...

Great sales team. Soooo many routine building issues / defects that should not have been there and 3 months later are not fully corrected. Lennar should have their own in-house repair team as this seems to be endemic - or at least the 12-20 other new homeowners we have discussed with have the same issues.

Have asked lennar to stop sending me these rating reviews, and emails trying to sell me new houses and show me what homes are available etcetera! If Lennar can't figure out I've already purchased a home 4 months ago and can't figure out I don't need to buy another one; then why would I want to do business with an entity that doesn't listen to its buyers/customers!

Very frustrating trying to settle and move in to a new “finished” home. We expected delays due to supply issues however upon settlement, major construction should have been completed. Racks were not installed. Bathroom fans not installed. Painting not finished. When touch up painting was attempted the colors did not match. This resulted in all of our rooms needing to be repainted after our furnishings were moved in. There was no final cleaning so we are still chipping grout off the tile floors. Grout in the bathrooms need to be re-done as it was not completed. So, we are moved in and ...

The only thing that kept the overall home buying experience from being lower than 3 stars was the terrific attitude, approach & demeanor of the salesperson Noreta. She was truly a blessing to work with. It is probably a bit too early to rate the experience as we are just 2 months in and still trying to settle some workmanship issues. However, this is the third home we've built (First with Lennar) and we have more issues in this home than the previous two combined. There are numerous gouges in trim wood work, flaws in vinyl siding, unfinished paint trim, gouges in kitchen cabinet shelves, ...

It seems that these homes are being built too fast and the workmanship is suffering for it. When you report a problem, it seems everyone is too busy building more homes and you have to wait to have your problems taken care of.
