Lennar Reviews

Beware of the quality of work done! Lennar just contract everything to third parties. Quality depends on the mercy of third party contractors workmanship. When you leisurely inspect yourself you will find several issues/problems. I would avoid Lennar given a chance!

The work on the punch list that we discussed on our walk through prior to closing were not completed as promised. I revisited 4 weeks later to find the disappointment. I understand that the build isn’t a custom home build but the issues should have been addressed

Our experience with the Lennar representative as wonderful. If it were not for Laura , I believe , the builder would not release the home. We were committed to buy and the PRICE WENT UP THOUSANDS! This is downright criminal. The construction manager Reese was also a pleasure to work with concerning repair issues. The problem is the craftsmanship of these workers who are hired to build and repair and address all kinds of issues. I have one serious remaining issue with drainage that I have contacted to address the problem. My wife and I are basically happy with the home and area. There is a lot to say and would be better served in a fluid conversation. ... More

The cosmetic issues were half fixed prior to closing. After living in the house you see so many more things that need to be fixed. When putting in a work order I was told to wait for the 11 month review. I am not convienced that things will be taken care of timely.

Experienced multiple issues that seem to be the result of poor workmanship on the part of some subcontractors. Issue resolution is very slow

The quality of materials used in home are not satisfied and cuts so many corners to save money by builders. Every times when we ask for some thing, the only excuse they have that other owners did not like that. The clubhouse is awesome but did not spend even 20% of the money in houses.

No construction updates, unfinished items still after closing, lost keys by construction crew. Phone calls to construction manager and sales representatives go unanswered.

Repairs take too long. Have to wait for workers to arrive. Disrupts the day waiting on workers when you have things to do.

A lot of issues have arisen since home has been purchased. It has been a month & conveniently it seems harder to get issues resolved once house has been purchased.

The quality of workmanship on all trim, all walls, ceilings to name a few is utterly awful. Whoever performed the work AND the QC who accepted the work shouldn't be in the construction business, period.

We really love the area that we are in. Sure we wish some of items of the community were different. The communication with the sales rep was ok. I never heard from him on the closing day or after. Not even a check in to make sure everything was good. The New Home Orientation seemed to be a pretty decent list before we closed on the house. It has been two and a half months since closing and we are still waiting on some of those items to be fixed.

I am very disappointed in the quality of the kitchen cabinets. Not enough space and set too high.

There were some home reps that were just used car salesman, but for one… Taylor was great to work for. She was honest about the whole process would recommend working with her on any issues. Works when she is off.

The quality of construction is not as expected and the customer care reps/ their contractors tries to escape fixes.

Sales and purchase were easy. Many of the Lennar systems don’t talk to each other so that was somewhat frustrating. After inspection and move in we found quite a few issues. Nothing that I feel confident that the warranty department would take seriously (house not sealed at roof - mice coming in). Been a Lennar home owner before, and Project Management and Quality Control is seriously lacking.

The home buying process went really fast and I did feel rushed to meet deadlines. Emails that were sent were sent on Friday afternoons mountain time so when it came to questions, I had to wait until Sunday or Monday to hear a response. My walkthrough was fast with the final walkthrough being rushed. All items that needed to be fixed were not done at the final walkthrough leading to a rushed job. When I finally received a key code to get in it was hours after closing. The work that was done was horrific. I'm being told that I have to wait until the 12 months. So I purchased a brand new home/build that has dings, mismatched paint, doors that won't close, lawn that looks horrible. The person I closed with and the person I purchased the home from went MIA. No one has checked in with me after working with me for months prior. The closing was not a celebration. It was disorganized and very long. No celebration at all. No pictures no handshake. I was expecting more and at least the seller to be there. After all this, I shouldn't be told that these are production homes and I didn't purchase a custom home. Production or not, all work should be done with integrity and great workmanship. ... More

This home was not clean, poor painting everywhere especially the area above the baseboard. This means that semi-gloss was painted above the baseboard in some cases at least 5”. This was noted with both walk throughs, but was not corrected. Paint splatters on sliding doors not cleaned off and the tracks for the sliders were not cleaned. We have NEVER moved into a brand new house that was supposedly cleaned but needed through cleaning, by us, before we moved in. If this is what has happened with the other homes, I would suggest getting new contractors. What’s the deal with the cement lip pulling into the garage, that is an accident waiting to happen. WHERE’S THE POOL? We were told that it would be in this summer. When will it be started? ... More

Was told upgrades were included with no upgrades available. Mortgage was difficult to reach and misrepresented the taxes and didn't explain very well. I received 7 or 8 estimated closing documents and not one was correct! Would not recommend

For the money spent, I am disappointed. Issues range from customer service to craftsmanship

Having problems with incomplete exterior painting. The interior painting was okay except for massive over spray onto the appliances from painting the cabinets. The sink was chipped and was to be replaced or fixed-that was never done. The sprinkler system is confusing and hard to check if it is working. Hoping that there will not be a lot of problems with the a/c since it has been to cold to use it. The garage door seals were improperly installed and were never fixed. The screen was to be replaced due to concrete being smeared on it and that was never done. Exterior grading was not done. Don't know if these quality control issues are normal with new builds. ...

Lennar salesperson was easy to work with and offered an easy in house mortgage offering with no closing costs. However, the mortgage application process was clunky and exposed a lot of internal communication problems. We had to approve everything twice because a second application was started because we were locked out of their site. Instead of canceling one they required us to approve all documents twice. Upgraded appliances were included in our agreement. However, Lennar reneged on this and refused to honor the contract. This turned what should have been a positive experience into a frustratingly negative one. The customer care team found many defects during our walkthrough which were repaired before closing. ...

While I enjoy my home, cosmetically, there was a poor job done on many things to cut corners.

A lot of things left undone or inoperable. Many things overlooked or ignored. Your people cannot be this blind. One gal stopped by here and wouldn’t listen to anything I said. She should be fired for her conduct. Some to most of your people are third rate at best. The backyard is even incomplete with relation to the entire property. You’ll be surprised when you get the list I send to have fixed or finished. It’s not a short list

The house are rushed to be done

I live in Utah and purchased a Lennar home in champions gate Davenport FL to Airbnb. After I closed, my agent Jag gave me the number to a guy named Aaron with Lennar who he said would take care of helping me with warranty issues. I traveled to the house to furnish and decorate and while there I called. I texted. I called again and again. Left message after message for weeks with zero response. I know Aaron was receiving my texts because it said “read” after I sent texts. He also butt dialed me but didn’t answer when I called back. In the meantime I noticed a man coming and going from the house next door who I assumed was a handy man or owner of the house. One day this guy ran his truck into another truck parked across the street because he was in such a hurry to leave. The next day I walked outside and saw this guy with another guy wearing Lennar shirts. I asked them if they knew anyone named Aaron. Of course the guy who had been in and out of the neighbors house was Aaron. I asked him why he never responded to the multiple calls and texts. He said he didn’t even have time to eat his lunch so he didn’t have the 30 seconds it would have taken to text me that he wasn’t the guy responsible for my house. I told him if he had just let me know what I needed to do for warranty issues I wouldn’t have bothered him anymore. He walked away. Later that night Aaron knocked on my door and apologized for the confrontation earlier and that he had cleared his day for the the next day to come help me figure out my warranty issues. He said he would be there at 9am. We shook hands. All was forgiven until he didn’t show up the next day. ….once I figured out how to resolve warranty issues the process has been very good. The lady I think named amber has been great. But Aaron set me back a few weeks and now I’m back in Utah trying to deal with the different trades coming to the house for warranty issues ... More
