Lennar Reviews

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.

The back light in the patio doesn’t work. They never put the shutters that goes above the garage, still sitting in the garage in a box. Looks like the spill the light grey paint on my dark brown floors did a bad clean up and you can tell.

During the purchasing process, information about expected closing date from the selling agent was not clear, causing thousands dollars of extra cost in financing. Water leak was found soon after moving in, caused water damage.

Between the dead grass, bad concrete (stains and dried mortar) and 32+ interior items I’m not sure I can give a positive review. When the poor workmanship items are addressed, they’re still not to the level Lennar is promoting.

Back up to the beginning the features listed on the liatature and what the sample houses had is not what we received. You cannot show crown molding, Waynes coating, Perfect thresholds quality paint, paint colors outside of the stock colors and not make them available. Also we do not get a response from the warranty person. And we still have outstanding issues to be addressed after 45 days and counting. On the final walk thru so many major items were not working that we did not see the simple things like hinges pins missing from doors. Our needs repainting and not one has showed up the fix it it. Also our thresholds were built with scrap lumber. There is not enough insulation in the attic. Also we were told that our cracked and stepped on sidewalk would not be fixed. We will not recommend Lennar Builders to any perspective home buyers. We will recommend Lennard to any of our friends or persecutive home buyer. ... More

Workmanship are very poor, after we moved we saw a lot of problems the paint, lots of nails pops, window blinds, doors are loose, carpet are short, something missing on the counter, problem with internet cable, the stairs, water heater doesn't work on our first day , warranty guy only good on the first 2 weeks after that not answering the phone. Really disappointed, I will not recommend Lennar.

Quality a bit disappointing. Waiting all day today for someone scheduled to come perform some fixes.

I would call mine a pleasant experience. There were a few things that were great, but overall it is a disappointment.
