Lennar Reviews

Home buying experience was ok. Our Mortgage Loan officer was Amazing and our job site Superintendent is amazing. However, the quality of this homes is cheap and with no taste at all. Materials are cheap, kitchen Granite is ugly, Master Shower is cheap and you don't get to choose any other details or make any changes to your own home. Appliances are cheap too. So you are paying $401K for $100K value home. Very sad!

Since we closed we had major plumbing issues and our dishwasher broke the other day. We have lived here for 1 month. I don’t t trust Lennar workmanship at all after hearing neighbors issues and online reviews on Lennar homes. I have anxiety living in a Lennar home due to poor warranty time frames and craftsmanship on the home. The price was ok I don’t think this home was worth $265,000 but we had to move so we took it. I do love the elementary school and amenities. It’s a beautiful neighborhood I’m just very confused on how small the streets are. It’s made for one vehicle at a time if someone is parked on the street. I don’t trust any issues regardless of warranty being fixed the correct way. I also had a horrible experience with Justin as my loan officer to finance the house. He was not doing his job at all. Justin dropped the ball too many times. I hope they build the second pool near Timber Point Dr. So we can use it. This community is too big for just one pool at the community center. Again, my anxiety is high closing on a NEW Lennar home because of the issues that were a problem prior to closing and now since we closed the issues we have experienced. ... More

If you want Lennar to go the extra mile just know they won’t. They will find the easy cheap way to put a house up. They used scraps for siding. Wall outlets are not symmetrical/ set properly light switches will be placed on random wall behind doors “that’s just how the electrical was ran”. Plaster/ paint looks rough all around the house. During walking through with construction manager we were instructed to place blue tape on issues that needed to be fixed. and during final walk we had to point out random spots that weren’t fixed. The spots we retapped and still moved in to multiple spots still have blue tape in rooms that they ignored. ... More

Not happy with the the customer service, 600K +, and the agent did not receive us on closing day , just left a text and location of our keys, our address does not show up on any maps …etc just a headache

The sales representatives were amazing and were able to answer most if not all questions we had. They really are a good resource to have. Construction on the other hand needs a huge lift in the attention to detail and pride in their work. Although not the construction mangers fault, and he helped out as much as he could, it was evident that the laborers were just there to go through the motion and could care less about the quality in their work because it wouldn't be their problem once they left, to list a few things: 1. We found garbage in our home, and we just closed on it 2. Painter tape on the floor, which must've been missed by cleaners 3. Blatantly missed blue tape items, some of which will never be fixed until I decide I'm sick of looking at it 4. Broken Garage door (took 2 weeks post close to have this fixed) 5. Broken doorbell (took 3 weeks post close to have this fixed) 6. Garbage disposal had a nail in it, which broke it 7. Hardware installed with lack of care (things are not level, and its very noticeable) 8. Blemishes on front and mud room garage door because they installed our permeant doors instead of using construction doors during the build. 9. evident that the cleaners never showed up... construction dust on counters and in sinks, no vacuum marks on carpet areas There's more, but what's the point? Would I build with Lennar again, maybe... The house is nice, the location is nice, the process was easy, but some things make me hesitant... ... More

Overall quality especially painting/caulking was poor. Everything was done in a rush. Did not have a good experience with our loan officer either. Learn to focus on your clients and not just mass producing homes for the most profit. Everyone on our street got a welcome home sign and balloons and we got nothing. Highly disappointed.

I expected better quality from Lennar. Totally surprised at the finish product. Enough said!

The sales person was very good at selling/pushing the place. But I was not pleased at the amount of dishonesty that occurred during the entire process. From being dishonest about when closing would be, I to nobody showing up at my walk-through, to the change in my loan, type at the end of the process, All the way to several warranty items that have still not been completed. I.

It is taking a long time for Lennar to get the issues in our exception list resolved, particularly installing the smart lock.

It is a beautiful house but it’s so cheaply made. The house was slapped together and I am spending 20+k on making things right. They don’t even seal tile, grout, or fencing. Paint job was terrible. Garage is unfinished. Have had recalled parts in our new house already. Hard to get anyone to respond and they act like concerns are an over reaction. Tell us those are minor things (yet those minor things cost a ton of money to fix and should be correct the first time when you’re paying 500k-1million+ for a house. Over all not worth the prices. It’ll make for a great rental home some day but def won’t be something I live in as a forever home. ... More

Homebuying process was simple if somewhat rushed. The biggest issue is the lack of noise abatement between our home and the home below us. We can hear every footstep from the unit below us. This is unacceptable and Lennar does not seem to care since we now own it.

Sales agent provided misleading information. Sales team anf financial team used alot of buyer intimidation tactics. Repairs were not made from final walk through 45 days after being in the home. Home was not cleaned good for final walk through and move in. Craftsmanship of wotk is very sloppy. No pride in work.

Settlement date delayed twice, including Friday 8PM phone call that Monday settlement will be delayed. Things that should be fixed after New Home Orientation were not done,l. New home but l Pros: Very nice community and responsiveness of construction management to the issue. In general feels like there is minimum attention paid to overall look and feel of a new home. Every crew was responsible for something leaving mess behind and there was no control over it. As we life here over 45 days now, we are still find new things that should have been caught and fixed before by managers.

Lenner make promises during the walk-through that has not been fulfilled!!!! We are still waiting to get the outside door painted along with touchup work inside. This experience has been very frustrating!

Bad bad bad. Issues with cement and grading of property. I can’t even walk between my house and neighbors. I lost a sneaker in the mud and lawn mower gets stuck. This was brought up at the last walkthrough and said it would be addressed. Never was and now it might cost me thousands to make right. I have 8 kids that are all adults and home buying. I have told them all to look elsewhere

Buying home from Lennar was easy but the quality of workmanship is not good. Had to go through Warrenty to get many things fixed. Very poor carpenter work, lose cabinets, door which doesn’t latch. Electric work also not great many switches were not fitted properly. Horrible pain job and even after getting the re paint the entire house is not looks patchy lol. I would never buy anything from Lennar.

When my realtor and I went to the Lennar office for our scheduled appointment, we were told we couldn't use the prices on the sheet we were handed as there had been a price increase. That evening we received the updated sheet from Michelle, and yes there was a 5 thousand increase. The next day, March 1, we returned to the office as I had make the decision to go ahead and purchase the house. I left a voided check so that my account could be debited for the deposit. The problem was that the contract didn't get written and processed until a week later. During that weeks time the price increased another 5 thousand dollars. To this day, I feel that was not right for that to happen after I had agreed to purchase at a given price. I feel it was not Michelle's fault, as her coworker, Brandie, had been and was out sick for awhile I believe with Covid. Being in the office and seeing the number of people coming in looking and asking questions, the phones ringing, I could see that one person could not handle it all. So, in my opinion Lennar was at fault for not having adequate help in the office. Michelle, said she went to bat for me with the builder, almost having a melt down, but got nowhere with being given consideration. She said there was an across the board increase. Well and good, but a house that was agreed upon at a certain price and that should have had the contract filled out, the buyer should have had that price honored. I gave an overall 3 star rating because Michelle was professional and nice; her work load was just too much for any one person. ... More

The experience in the purchase with the sales team was good, friendly and easy, but the defects and problems inside the house due to the poor finish was very bad, we arrived a month and 20 days from the closing and we still have many unsolved problems , I thought that buying from a company like Lennar with such prestige in the market we were going to be fine, but it was not like that

My apologies I cant give a good review.

Workmanship is B - The garage is a D. Wasn’t finished.

Several things falling apart. Not repaired in a timely manner. Backyard rules too restrictive, Lennar does not follow the same guidelines.

The sales folks at Lennar were very kind and helpful through the initial stages. Our concerns with the quality of work began first before we moved in. We noticed a few weeks before closing that the wrong color front door had been installed. They put our door on the house across the street and that houses door on our home. They did a poor job painting over the wrong color instead of just switching the doors. Our front door also sits significantly crooked. Apparently it’s considered “within tolerance,” but it’s completely unsatisfactory for how much we’re paying for this house. One thing we thought we would get to use is the Level Lock feature that comes with the front door lock, however because the lock was installed crooked the level lock app is unusable. I have tried to fix the lock myself, but have not been able to. The doors throughout the house don’t close smoothly, and have chips coming off of the bottom of the doors. There is paint splatters all over our carpet and kitchen flooring. Baseboards throughout the house are wavy instead of nice and straight, and also have big chunks of missing paint. The main beam supporting the loft area upstairs is cracking at the bottom significantly. The placement of light switches was not thought out or designed well. The main floor shakes A TON even when my child walks past. It does not feel firm and sturdy (this is one of my biggest disappointments). There was no garage door opener pad installed outside of the garage. We were provided with the MyQ app we can use from our phone, but if our phones are ever dead we would have liked to just have a pin pad. Also for guests to get in the house. The plumbing of the water softener pipes was in a closet in the house instead of the utility closet in our garage. That made no sense to us or the plumber that we had come install a water softener. The list goes on unfortunately in regards to the poor workmanship and cheap materials used. We’re paying a lot of money for this house and worked hard to save in order to build, but we can’t say that we are satisfied at all. ... More

Make sure that you go through entire home and document all that needs to be fixed an make sure it is done prior to you signing paperwork. If not it will take forever to get it done. Lennar financial team was great.

This is my second Lennar home purchased, the first purchased before the collapse. I had hoped that the resilient economy and lessons learned from the past that the homebuilder is simply in the business of slamming up a bunch of houses without regard to customer experience. The home is very well designed, and the community is lovely, but from the framing to the wiring, to the plumbing, to the cabinets, doors, and windows, the labor used to construct and/or install finishes in this home are semi skilled at best. I am happy with my home, but know it will need to spend an additional tens of thousands of dollars addressing the builder defects. ... More

I have over one month trying to fix cracked curbing in front of house. Watched as other homes still being built had their issues fixed while my request go ignored only because our home was already turned in to us. I have videos and pictures and will contact news outlets if necessary over this workmanship and lack of service.
