Lennar Built home

So far the experience has been mediocre at best. A multitude of problems and nothing gets resolved quickly. Follow up to see what action was taken of if an action is take is slow or non-existent. You do a virtual visit and then never hear have a follow up on what is being done. it has been frustrating- they need to be more responsive and communicate on a regular basis rather than having to chase them to find out when/what is being done.

1. Even though we reported these issues during pre-drywall inspection, none of those were fixed 2. Forced us in a threatened way to close the house even without fixing the reported issues. 3. I fell and tripped in the room because of pulled out carpet, frames and closet doors left in the room without any safety concerns. 4. Multiple meetings and multiple people come in and go to look at the issues. This affected my work and personal life significantly in a negative way. It is unacceptable and negligent on their part to let us suffer this long.

The overall experience went pretty well, though after being in the house for a month, there are definitely things that look like shortcut were taken. Pavers not being even, no sand in papers, doors not being cut straight, dont stay locked, garage door not closing on its own, pavers not level with the garage floor, door jams not cut straight. screen doors are still missing for the slider doors. Overall we love the house, but in paying this much for a house, I dont appreciate when it looks like things were over looked and in trying to get them remedied, the process is taking weeks to get ...

We have had multiple issues with this house - too many for the price. Customer service is always quick to respond, but getting quality work is another story. The most on-going issue...I still have not been able to get another router to improve my internet (we've been in the house almost 2 months). They supplied us with 1 router that is good for 2000 square feet - our home is almost 3,200. This is our 3rd new house and we will never purchase a home from Lennar again.

Terrible communication and workmanship

  • Thomas F.

  • Summerville, SC

We closed a month late (weren't told till the day we were supposed to close by the builder). I get that happens. Didn't have a pre-close walkthrough. No closing celebration. Closed with an open punchlist of items that STILL aren't fixed and it's been more than two months. Had multiple conversations with multiple people and constantly getting the run around. If everything was done right, we would LOVE the house. But the quality (or lack of) shows through in just about everything

  • Katy, TX

Long story short, I was told several times that an irrigation system would be provided since that was part of what Lennar promised upon the original sales pitch. Multiple people assured me this would be ok and they would take care of it. Then 3 weeks before closing I’m told I wouldn’t be getting it….. If you don’t like it you can get a refund and go elsewhere. Horrible customer service. How can you trust a company that doesn’t make good on their promises? I even wrote my frustrations to the Lennar corp office. Didn’t even get a response. Im very disappointed with the integrity of LENNAR’s ...

  • Centreville, VA

Our new home took 21 months to deliver, it was partly because of COVID situation which is beyond anyone's control but the approvals with county took more time than expected due to property boundary issues. Lennar's communication was very poor during this time and we were notified only when we escalated it. But once all the approvals were received the construction went as planned and home was built in 7 months. On the build quality, the materials used by Lennar were of good quality. The workmanship was average. The construction manager was helpful and answered every question with patience ...

Lennar did not deliver as promised. It's my second home with Lennar. It's NOTHING like the first time. From the timeliness to quality of work being subpar. Quite honestly im NOT a happy camper. The only thing I got from Lennar on a timely and consistent basis was EXCUSES that didn't make sense.

Lennar - The bottom line is that Lennar has grown out and failed to grow

  • Larry W.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • June 22, 2022
  • New Port Richey, FL

The bottom line is that Lennar has grown out and failed to grow in. This unprecedented market unfortunately promulgates an attitude of quantity over quality. It’s blatantly apparent from nearly top to bottom. I would challenge Lennar to truly look at satisfaction ratings of the entire Bryant Square community. There HS absolutely a systemic failure that needs addressed. The most efficient, caring and compassionate entity was with Megan and Morgan in the loan Dept as well as the closing process. Other than that, I will never buy another Lennar home. I am not alone in this opinion.

I'm having a difficult time giving a great review due to some of the issues that, we are going through. Poor craftsmanship, bad painting, bad sod, and the list goes on. I had a better experience in Nevada in 2009 when I purchased my first home from Lennar. Sorry they need to hire better professionals.

Their motto of everything included is a good one for their process. Although they offer no choices to customize the house it is a well thought out home. The process is Lennar all the way, seamless and easy.

We went under contract six months prior before the home was finished. Im married. We made the offer under my name, but for investment purposes, we wanted to have my wife be on the house instead of myself. This is a simple process, it just needs to be approved by the builder. Literally we had sent them the document and all they had to do was sign it to get it done. We tried to do this a few months before close, but the Lennar denied. And it wasn’t like my wife didn’t have the qualifications. She was pre-approved and we would’ve closed on time. I think that because the value of the house went ...

It all starts with the closing. Initially we were to close on the last Tuesday of the month. Because of work, I requested the closing to be moved to the Friday of that same week. I was denied. I then organized a POA and had to fly my POA all the way to California for this closing only to be told less than a week prior that the house was not ready and closing was to be moved to the date I originally wanted. Overall, prior to actually moving in, the closing date was shifted a total of FOUR times. Each time being a last minute change to the closing date. Set a closing date and STICK WITH IT. ...

I never expected the following from the Lennar a reputed builder! 1. We were told that the house will be closed by October-November of 2021. But the house was closed on April 28, 2022. The 6 months delay. 2. The house was not ready at the time of closing. We were forced to close the home on closing day since me moved from out of state. The new closing date would have been 1-2 months later. 3. The quality of workmanship is poor with lots of issues. 4. Lennar still have to fix the issues with drywall, electric wiring, garage door, kitchen cabinets, carpet, painting, plumbing etc. 5. Due to ...

The experience was not good and that’s being kind. The mortgage person had no idea what was going on. The setup of the first 3 homes upon moving in left use not knowing who any of the utilities where going to be we had to figure it out ourselves. 2 month later we where able to get internet but are still waiting for mailbox’s. And the craftsmanship shows that everything was just slapped together as fast as possible and getting someone to fix the issues was a waste of time I have done most of what I asked to be done myself. And the house was filthy for buying a brand new home.

It wasn’t a bad over all experience, until after you close and there still a list of things incomplete, and they don’t want to do the completion of there build. Then it will become a “process”, and beyond that your home will have a broken fridge and a missing glass panel out of your garage and rooms missing door stops in. Not bitter, just do better.
