Lennar Reviews

The purchasing experience of my townhouse was fine. The quality of my townhouse is not good. Very sketchy. I have submitted SO many tickets for service to correct issues that it’s becoming a weekly habit and a part time job. This is not what I signed up for. I’ve become the general contractor to repair so many things that it totally diminishes the quality of product Lennar sells. My realtor warned me about Lennar and I should have listened. Now here I sit with a defective house that needs so much work and the smallest thing, like mowing the lawn doesn’t even get done! I’m disgusted and wish I would not have purchased a Lennar home! ...

There were a lot of issues I brought up during the 1st day of walkthrough. The construction manager wasn't professional in responding to my follow-up calls/messages. For example, my refrigerator was so tilted, and when I called him to have it fixed, his response was "it's just the way it is". He only fixed it when I told him that I wasn't going to close the house and that I would inform the Lennar salesperson about his work ethics. I have been living in my new house for a couple of months, however, I have been discovering issues such as: thud sound from the bathroom, crooked drywall for the windows, grout not cleaned up, dead tree (which I also brought it up during the first day of walkthrough but I was told that it was like that because it was winter. Now, Lennar isn't willing to replace the tree for free), dryer not drying clothes, broken refrigerator's ice maker, chips on the bathroom tile, broken towel bar, etc... Some of it were already addressed but my point being here is that I shouldn't be experiencing these issues with the price I paid for the house. ... More

Prior to close discovered chip in granite! Summer was to handle this Monday morning after close- no one showed up no follow through- QR code done and requested by Haley no response. Prior to move in we noticed laundry door did not shut- mentioned to Jeff he looked at it said he’d handle- nothing no- Phil called spoke to him. No one cared to follow up! Great customer care!:( i came for a visit a month after closing, the laminate floor creeks everywhere you step on it downstairs, is it missing something underneath???- a new floor should not creek everywhere you step. Poor install???? Also I noticed front shutter warping out - this should not happen to a shutter with in 5 weeks of closing! I’d love to know if this is the quality and customer service Lennar is about? Very disappointed! Closed sale and been ghosted by customer care! ... More

Quality issues with almost everything. No transparency from the construction manager and overall no good communication. Lennar’s standard is much lower than it should be and even though the work is done it is not quality. Anywhere they can they are trying to cut corners to save money and try and just do “good enough” work. Even though their work is clearly sub-par. Yes our house is completed and yes we are happy in our home but Lennar’s quality control is lacking, their honesty and transparency is sub-par at best.

We moved forward with purchase, despite reading some of the previous reviews and homeowner issues. We submitted 6 warranty claims within 1 month of living in the home, which was not the issue as I anticipated "some" minor issues, however they were all a result of poor craftsman ship, what appears to be a rush to complete/ close and move on, and lack of attention to detail. Lennar Mortgage, which thankfully we did not use, was also difficult to work with, did not want to honor their verbal offers and wasnt until we were prepared to walk away did they decide to "stand by" their word and honor a purchase incentive. Our neighbors have all had similar stories with varying degrees of issues. Our issues (light switches not connected, grinder failures before moving in, seems and joints not lining up and stains set into flooring and carpet) were minor compared to some of our neighbors. I will say the vendors that have came out to repair issues have been courteous and timely. ... More

does not return calls.shoddy work in next gen.

If there were a no star available for some categories, I would have put zero stars. On paper, an inspection was done but the mistakes missed during the “inspection” indicate nothing short of negligence. After two months, I am still dealing with Lennar mistakes and losing days waiting for workers who either don’t show or don’t complete the job. The lack of communication between Lennar and contractors only adds to the problems. Just today a worker was supposed to show and here I sit. Even contacting Lennar about the no show is getting no response. Lennar needs to address these very obvious shortcomings. ... More

Lennar was great in the beginning answered all of our questions in a timely manner whether through emails or text! Our sales rep Ali was always available to answer any questions we had, and with us being new home buyers she walked us through every stage of the home building process and for that we are grateful. Megan our loan officer was also available and would answer any of our questions in a timely manner.However when it came down to the construction of our home that's when things changed. As our closing date approached we had concerns that our home would not be finished. It indeed was not.We ended up closing with the promise that all of our concerns would be resolved a couple of days after closing and they were not. For example, missing doors on cabinets, lighting in both bathrooms,vanity missing in second bathroom etc. The bottom line is that we would have never of closed knowing all of these items wouldn't be taken care of for weeks after closing. As I write this review their are still issues with the kitchen cabinets.The earliest they can come to fix them is April! Not acceptable! But what choice do we have? ... More

In my experience the sales effort and aggressive chase for wire transfers long before the house was anywhere near completion was unprofessional. A 1:00pm walk thru for a 4:00pm closing when the interior doors where still in the garage along with many poorly done items in and around the house. Closed the next day with many open items. Still today dozen or more items not done. Appointment for Dec.23, garage door not working correctly and very noisy still no show. Awakened by dripping water while in bed, leaking roof. Interior paint job is horrible. Many spots in paint and chips or missing grout in floor not addressed yet. Broken tiles, chipped doors, not yet fixed. I can see grout lines in ceiling that should never show. Front door does not close properly, bad trim work around doors painted over. Contractors leaving paint or other stains in driveway. Holes in patio concrete. Far to many issues to list. Still today after two months blue stickers all over house. Your service after sale is rated less than one star. I cannot trust you to stand behind your work. Your service after the sale should be as aggressive as your sales and wire deposit efforts. The worse home buying experience and most expensive I have ever had! ... More

Materials changed and fixing issues gets pushed off or not addressed.

The construction of a $500k home rates a Minus on our scale. Super delayed process that was poorly communicated. Stressful and limited communication during the build process. Obvious lack of supervision of poorly skilled workers. The home continues to present endless construction issues. Just wished this product was refundable .

There is no sound proofing between the ceiling and the neighbors floor above I hear everything that goes on upstairs!!!!! I made settlement in September 7th now I’m going to try and sell it hopefully no one reads this LOL !! It’s 2022 I shouldn’t be able to hear my neighbors upstairs. Lennar probably doesn’t care so here is your review

Poor quality construction. Cheap material used.

Overall we like the house but it hasn’t been a great experience.

Not worth your time. They to get everything done. A lot of dings on all the doors, cabinets and cabinets doors. The material that they use is really cheap. They take t there time to come by the fix there mistake. Overall it has been not good experience for my wife and I.

Loan officers are terrible if I was to do it again I'd use an outside mortgage company. Also don't use there insurance for flood and homeowners you'll get ripped off.I regards to length of construction time that went well . Addressing my punchlist items that went well.

I would like to have gotten the same quality of workmanship that was in the model home. I'm sorry to say that didn't happen and even though they made many many promises to make things right, I know that it won't happen. They only make money by building new homes, not by fixing their mistakes. It makes me sad to know that the quality is not getting any better and they really don't care.

Terrible overall experience. The homes are quickly built we zero attention to detail. I’ve been there for close to two months and we’re still trying to finish repairs from initial walk through.

Excellent response till the date closing is not completed, after its hard to get the response. Not satisfied with the material and appliances.

I paid $20,000.00 More then some of my neighbors for a premier lot . I cannot get out my screened in back door because of the extreme pitch . This lot is unusable as is. I cannot traverse this landscape at all .My 4 year old grandson opened the screened in backdoor and fell out rolling down the pitch and hitting his head on the Irion drain ! I ve spoken to several people from Lennar . All have not much to say expect this is the worst lot in here that they have seen to date and nothing has been done ,no one has a business card to give me no one from Lennar will give me there contact information. to say shady is an under statement no transparency at all ! My neighbors and I are fed up, as my lot directly effects there lots .Water drainage is a huge problem wrap up with all the other problems I have to deal with on a daily bases . This is a 55 plus community REALLY ! To date my experience with Lanner is bad to very bad and keeps on getting worst .I will be seeking help ... More

This home was not built for me. I ended up buying this house but shared the issues with the home. The simplest issues where fixed partially. They caulked and painted the split door frame. When they painted they closed the doors so when I opened them the paint came off the doors. The cleaning crew was horrible. There are paint specs all over the quartz. The bathrooms and shelves are covered with paint and saw dust. The joint compound for the drywall on my ceiling has bubbled up. These are the things they need to fix and haven’t. Construction manager office is in front of me and when he sees me he drives away. ... More

The builder doesn’t care about Quality just quantity

Very rushed closing with hundreds of punch list items, some not fixed yet. Warranty service which is supposed to start at 30 Days is just now contacting us at 60 days. Sales and Finance teams delivered, and Construction team helpful, but corporate control of the process and follow up is non-existant.

Overall we felt that we are cheated on the quality of the workmanship and the material. They are rushing with the construction process and hence compromising on the quality. During construction hard to get updates and clarification on any concerns we had. They even close the house before fully ready. The warranty process is awfully bad...The list will go on and on...

My experience with this purchase has been a nightmare. This company don't take responsibility from their negligence's. Big sewer water flood the day of the move and nobody want to claim responsibility.
