Lennar Reviews

Love the house. Issues of where light switches are. Selection process to restricted. Orientation to the community was lacking. Sod was in fair condition; bushes seem to be dying. Would have preferred to have options on flooring. Never informed there would be a retention pond so close to my house.

Gina was excellent from start to finish. She was very attentive and thorough and despite being asked hundreds of questions, she responded to each and every one with patience and concern. We were updated on the progress of our home from start to finish with occasional pictures sent to show the progress. Everyone has been very easy to deal with; even after moving in, the team at Lennar have continued to be responsive to any and all concerns.

I have worked with and for builders over the last 20 years and have purchased new homes in the past. This has been a disappointing experience. Supply chain is a "thing" right now BUT my issues are not supply chain related. -Staff would not communicate with my Realtor about my concerns prior to closing -60 days later, they still haven't painted some areas in the front of my new home as well as numerous other issues -Landscaping not completed -Response to requests are slow (call backs) -Damaged flatwork still has not been scheduled but new flatwork is poured each day at other properties At the moment, I would not recommend Lennar....the multitude of issues has made what is an exciting experience a disappointing one. ...

Lennar houses are great but be sure to add 3 months from the promised date you get.

Lennar has been great to work with so far. Dana has been awesome supporting our punchiest issues. GC has not been back to finish punch list issues after several calls and text. Dana is working on it. Kitchen countertop has pits and Cloudy spots that will not come out. I know several owners have replaced counter and carpet already. Lennar needs to look into supplier and quality going into condos.

So great that time ！pleasant experience！

We were super excited to close on our home in May. Lennar had attempted to move our closing day up a couple of weeks, which did not work with our schedules, so we left it as it. When we went for our first walk through, we shocked at the state of the house. Things were damaged. Things were dirty. We were promised it would be taken care of and ready to go. By closing day, nothing had been finished, including missing doors. We agreed to close since we had no where else to go. We were told the work would be done. It’s been two months at the end Of July and there is still a lot that needs to be done, in addition the amount of problems we’ve found in the home. Including water leaks, no security, no watering system, leaks in the sprinklers, dead trees, broke garage, damaged things that were said to be replaced etc. ultimately if we hadn’t had Deb in the beginning of the process help us navigate these challenges it would still be a mess. We are grateful to her. On the post closing side Abby has been phenomenal with trying to get people into get the work done. I feel like without the two of them there would have been no progress. Deb and Abby get 50 + stars. The people that don’t show up to do their stuff get -50. ... More

We went and looked at the exact home that we wanted, it looked wonderful. We were told that everything in that house is what we were getting. Wood-like tile, crown molding that you can actually see (we got molding that is about two inches thick, useless waste of money), etc. NOT what we got AT ALL. Our house was supposed to be done in November, then we were told December, & every month that it wasn’t ready, we were told it would be ready the next month, until finally, May rolls around & it was done. There are still holes and dents in the walls, the baseboards are either caked with paint/caulk or have dents in them. We gave a list of things that needed to be fixed to the guy during the walk through. They did a few things & that was it. There are things we told them about during closing & they have yet to contact us about those things. The counters, cabinets & floors were covered in paint from over spray, leaked paint, grout that wasn’t cleaned up properly, etc. It has been two months since we moved in and I’m still cleaning these things. We have a patch of grass missing from our yard because of some leak issue. Not sure if it’s our issue or the neighbors. I will never be buying a house through Lennar again. SLOPPY WORK, LAZY WORK, WRONG OR NO INFORMATION. ... More

Write everything on exception list, do not close if you aint satisfied. Lennar warranty is a mess. Construction managers are worse.

We had a great experience buying the property, we had support all the time. Actually this is our second property that we buy to Lennar.

Communication fell off a cliff after purchase of home and could not contact team unless I physically drove out there. Deadlines were continuously missed and since moving in there have been many things falling apart that should not be. Trim is falling off, there are cracks EVERYWHERE in the drywall, we are still missing pieces to our home, our dishwasher broke the first time we used it and weve been told it will be months before it can be fixed. We moved into a new home to minimize issues with repair but every weekend we are fixing something that is broken. The only thing that makes this house enjoyable is who I spent it with but for the amount we spent the quality truly has missed the mark. Yes we did a walk through, but even with a walkthrough that took over an hour there was not enough time to catch the extent of the damages to the home even before we moved in. ... More

Very Poor, experience, no communication from the Lennar. Had to involve management for every little thing. They did not even care to answer phones on day of closing. I left messages and received a call back after 24 hours, that too after 5 emails cc'ing the management. Lennar Mortgage is most inefficient, Loan officer change rate on you without your knowledge, lie and are dishonest. They cannot answer one intelligent question, and their management is equally dishonest and encourage their unlawful ethics.

It started with a walk-through well before the house was ready, and multiple things not finished. I felt like the closing date was forced in order to get the sale in May. Still working on things that should have been done before the close. Even after multiple visits from the landscaper, yard is still in terrible condition.

The whole experience was terrible. It was supposed to be a happy experience. We paid a lot but yet the quality was sub-par. It was a fight to have them get anything done and things were promised to get done that still haven’t. We will never buy from Lennar again.

From start to move in Lennar staff kept us updated on the process and were helpful in obtaining our VA loan.We will recommend the Lennar family to anyone we meet looking for a new home

I was happy with almost everything except for the communication in the middle of the build, there where many delays I feel could have been communicated in a Better time frame

Very bad experience home took forever to build at closing needed so many repairs close anyway because Lennar said things would get taken care immediately that’s not the case still waiting very disappointed

My apologies I cant give a good review.

The orientation of the home as it turns out was awful. NOTHING was explained regarding hot water tank use and especially all the RING stuff and the fact it had to be installed within 55 days or HIPPO insurance comes with money owed due to missing the date. NONE of that was ever explained.

It was pleasing to work with Lennar

My Lennar experience was mixed. I love the house and community but Lennar didn’t make the process easy. I made the deal last October when the lot was being graded. It took Lennar almost 8 months to complete the house and I could never get a straight answer about the work schedule. The main problem is that Lennar uses the old “good cop” / “bad cop” approach to customer service (I’ve changed the names of all Lennar staff). There were two sales guys involved, I’ll call Joe and Moe. Joe is a genial frat boy type while Moe is his dour counterpart. Joe handed me off to Moe whenever a complicated issue came up, and then would pop up again like a Hobbit. There were two construction managers Harry and Larry. Same drill: Harry was the crusty and genial guy in pickup truck and Larry the enforcer. There was a serious “mistake” made in that inferior cabinets were installed, which I discovered six weeks before closing. It took until closing to resolve and it was never clear if this was an honest mistake or an intentional deceit. I ended up having to accept lower grade cabinets than I paid for, due to closing. After closing, I got Baby Bill, a young guy with a bad attitude and eventually the area construction manager, Smiling Will. There’re several unresolved issues which I’m waiting for Smiling Will to resolve, including a potential credit for the cabinet fiasco. While Lennar Title was great, I’d never use Lennar Mortgage again: the loan officer was rude, unresponsive, and arrogant. Still, all’s well that end’s well. Lennar is no different than other merchant builders so assume you’re essentially dealing with a giant car dealership and act accordingly. ... More

Such a great experience buying and building a house with Lennar. Colton in the front sales has been outstanding to keep us informed throughout the process. We are very happy with our home.

My biggest disappointment is the workmanship. Sloppy messy and destructive. I expected a much cleaner final walkthrough. Fiberglass showers all had what I assumed(mistake) was clay and would wash away. Clearly workers stepped in them with cleats that gouged and left orange spots that don’t come out. Had it been cleaned better I would have known that. Don’t feel rushed. Walk through and spend time. Lennar, you are only as good as the workers you hire. Construction managers need to check sites more often and expect more.

I would NOT recommend Lennar's mortgage. I was unable to use Lennar's mortgage company due to their inexperience and I lost out on all incentives in addition I never received all the information at closing regarding who to contact, association information ect... The tile in my master bath had to be redone multiple times. Holly was amazing she was the bright spot in this experience without her I would have walked away from this home purchase.

The office staff was very professional and responsive. Gina Hurff is a great communicator with regular correspondence. The attention to detail in the finished home could be better. A few more choices in design options and material color would be appreciated fir a home of that price. Overall a good experience.
