Lennar Reviews

I'll never buy another Lennar home again

When we got the house it was not the same model and the restrooms were different. The material that they use for the shower is a waterproof Sheetrock and they glue a piece of Sheetrock to put shampoo on it and it did not stay that long , it fell the second time we used the shower and that happened to both restrooms.

Not enough information is provided.

First of all, we we were on a waiting list for our home. Then, out of the blue, we had to endure a lengthy wait with stressful bidding...raising the price over 100k than original list price! Upon moving in, we found the the quality of trade workmanship sorely lacking. There were way too many issues on the punchlist and afterwards for any of the Lennar staff to reasonably complete in the 60 day period. We still have many issues to resolve...and a tilted ceiling that cannot be reasonably addressed. Love the place...just wish we had a much better experience. Thank heavens the salesman and construction manager made us feel much better and have been very helpful. ... More

Make sure you take your time with your walkthrough. I felt rushed and some issues where never fixed.

Quick build. Sloppy job site. Not enough info about hoa or builder.

They build their houses fast and rely on the fact you have a 1 year warranty to fix the things they messed up on. That is only the things you find. The workers try to cover up mistakes even when some are obviously wrong. POOR integrity on the workers and PM building the house.

I still have items that need to be fixed - warped cabinet door. Horrible customer service. I have to constantly track and follow up.

It appears all they want to do is sell houses and once you buy one you are put on the back burner. Enjoy the community and the neighbors.

We started the home buying process with Lennar in June of last year,we were excited to buy a new build home here in Vegas for our relocation from N CA but things started to go south between my private lender and Lennar real fast, it was alot of things done that definitely should of been handled more professionally. But anyways did our walk thru was advised items that were found to be broken would be fixed prior to move in, it didn't happen, things got fixed a month or so afterwards. Then we never got our new garage doors we have old temp doors and ours are the worse in the whole neighborhood they paint is coming off one they totally are different colors,by the way its a 3 car garage. We noticed ppl who moved in after us had matching doors or at least same color scheme, we found out theirs was taking from the model homes here and when questioned Lennar,reply was they needed those so the home buyer could close on their loan. I don't want to call them out but it's been a joke since we moved in. Our break box kept tripping do food went bad over Christmas holiday,this was reported way b4 that time no one fixed it til after the holidays, free washer and dryer also broke within a months time GE appliance the cheaper ones of course. Yea not happy after paying $555,000 for this home. Yea be cautious when purchasing from Lennar. ... More

Their inability to give us a choice in many things in our home. From interior paint color, to external brick, the choice was made for us. Never in my experience of buying a home did the sales guy have to say, "I'm sorry, no" so many times. If it weren't that Lennar had the floor plan we wanted (Next Gen home) we would have built with someone else.

Lots of little things that either weren't done, missed, or just skipped all together. Use cheap materials with what appears to be unskilled labor to complete the build process. Sure the new features are neat but the quality is just not what I was expecting, especially with the price paid for the home. Many areas of the homes design just don't make sense from the lights and switches(which in some rooms especially the kitchen and hallway are backwards and in some cases on the wrong Side of the room) to the drywall, cabinets, the location of heater vents in the floor, the carpet is not good quality either. 3 months and we are looking at having to replace carpet already. Don't get me wrong, there are some really great things about our home as well. Finished basement extra bathrooms, covered back patio, and the 3 car garage with openers on both sides. ... More

They are building houses so quick that details get missed and stuff doesn't get finished. Contractors miss follow up appointments also

Customer service very responsive but limited in what they could accomplish, who every over saw the house being built very poor, when we complained about the paint to the sub they sent out the answer was it was building grade paint and they new we would be repainting lots of hi tech items but most don't work at designed

I feel they rushed the preclosing inspection we marked a lot of items in the house thinking in a week when we do the closing day inspection everything would be done, we pulled up and there was a welcome home sign and balloons in the driveway. When we walked in very little was done so they have people coming and going to finish so we would close. It was totally rushed and mediocre job. The other upsetting thing was the backyard was not grades correctly and all around the back porch it floods. Still waiting for that to be corrected. They are building a house next to us and for 3 months there has been a 6 foot high mound of dirt in there backyard that we get to stare at when we are on the porch. We still have blue tape on kitchen cabinets where there are items that need attention. We called in September and the cabinet people said they are booked out till February. Although they are building homes that cabinets are going into everyday but they can’t take care of ours, Bottom line is Lennar needs to realize the customer deserves the attention of the builder till everything is completed. The follow up person was very good ( Edward) but they can only do so much seeing there are so many closings happening. ... More

Better communication would go a long way in making satisfied customers. Our closing was delayed over 2 months with absolutely no communication from Lennar as to reason. House was still not ready / completed at walk through.

i'd like other home buyers to Lennar does not keep to their word. There is still no amenities and we have been told for almost a year they were about to start and now at the beginning of 2022, we still have no amenities.

Home was behind build schedule on date of walkthrough, several unresolved issues with the home still need addressing even after 4 months living here.

In good faith, I wouldn’t use Lennar as my home builder again. I’ve been in my home for four months and I’m still waiting to have construction issues resolved. Too stressful.

I think the workmanship is very poor quality I have had way to many problems to be in a brand new home it’s a nightmare but I can say that everything is being taken care of but if it was built right from start I would not have to be writing about it I came to Lennar for quality and I am disappointed.

Lennar is building too many homes too fast and utterly lacking in quality control. All the homeowners in our neighborhood are having to chase after them for multiple items with the homes. Warranty response can be very uneven. Four months into the home and I’m still waiting for a replacement cabinet doors owed us from prior to close. Paint on floors, dings and walls, crappy paint job in places, their installers put the wrong cabinets in the wrong bathrooms ( one is bigger one is smaller and they had them swapped Impacting use of the toilet in one of them ). Lennar’s‘s move-in ready campaign, things like blinds on the windows are one nice point but their connected home package is left to you to install and figure out. We didn’t even get our full package and had to chase after Lennar for a few months now to get all the pieces that were promised. One hand doesn’t know what the other hand is doing. World not buy Lennar again ... More

I was disappointed in the overall workmanship in this house. At one screw in every hinge was stripped and was told you don't fix that. You can see seems in the crown molding but was told that is a homeowner's problem. All interior doorknobs were loose. Poor paint job.

Sadly I spend more of my time discovering things around the house that need to be fixed rather then simply enjoying the house itself

I was so excited to buy another Lennar home. I had a gorgeous 3 story home in Charleston SC. After closing on this house I was highly disappointed. Everything is cheap looking except granite. Cabinets cheap, carpet cheap, roof cheap! Would not let me change anything. Even if I paid cash up front. No lights on front porch. Cheap stick tree in front yard. This house was $360,000!! They forgot a linen closet upstairs until I told them. Then busted out the ceiling downstairs to reroute A/C ducts. Vents put on backwards and no caulking or thin caulking throughout the house. My doorbell already broke have had electrical issues. Rushed work to make more money at the buyers cost. Quantity does not equal quality!! ... More

Make certain everything is done right before you sign off with the quality assurance person. Once you sign that and then you close, you have warranty to deal with. Warranty has been horrible to deal with. They can only complete one item at a time. I wish my Home buying experience would have been better.
