Lennar Reviews

Everyone worked hard to make it a great experience.

Lennar homes are beautiful. I love having Lennar as my homebuilder. Great qualities, stability workmanship. Love the paint on the wall it’s so beautiful and fresh looking. Love the style of my home and the kitchen, so pretty.. I’m thrill and very grateful for Lennar homes. Thank you so much..

The house quality is very different with the model homes. I spoke directly with the site building manager and he said this is Lennar standard quality. He said that just to not wanting to make corrections to poor built quality workmanship and not wanted to hear from the buyer. It seems like Lennar hired a group of builders off the streets and gave them the projects. I have seen many Lennar model homes but none look like the one that i purchased. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I would never advice/suggest/recommend the people around me to go with Lennar. I am willing to speak directly with the officials in the cooperate regarding to my homebuying experience with Lennar. Please contact me. ... More

There are so many things need to considered. 1.If you are making smart home atleast run ethernet wire in house. 2. Sprinkle for landscaping should be wifi controlled not manually. 3. Need man door in garage, if someone need to go to backyard from garage then they need to go either from front or pass through the living area then access it from back yard. Garage man door should be there. 4. Electrical to the plugs should go from top of the house not through the walls. 5. If no landscaping is done in backyards atleast there should bepoint left for Sprinkle system. 6. Shower head so hight if kids need to adjust how they should adjust it. ... More

When buying a home I looked at the reviews and most of them were bad. When you look st it most of the good reviews never are reported. People only report bad experiences. I am reviewing so a good point of view is heard. Our home was build quickly and delivered on time. The Lennar team on walk through day had the house in very good move in condition with few small things which they said they will correct. They even corrected issues after move in and never got a no for any service request so far. All issues were minor like cosmetic and no structural or major issue.

Builder was right on point with floor plan.workmanship was so detail.very pleased with my home ownership from lennar.

I wish we were able to pick our exterior elevation/colors. We had a lot of delays, many of which were understandable, some were solely based on the land department’s incompetence, things that they knew needed to be done but expected the city to allow a variance on that delayed closing several weeks.

Bought a brand new house but received a house with a microwave that was not working and a lot of very imperfect blemishes to the craftsmanship.

Overall, the process was relatively easy. There was a month delay in our closing date due to supply chain issues out of Lennar's hands. I was disappointed that we were not able to pick out any options in this home as the builder decided what options they were putting in and that could not be changed. Complaints: it would be nice to be able to have the builder move closet shelving up or down to accommodate more shelves but they would not vary from their 'plan'. Also, the hot water takes FOREVER to get hot in not just our home but everyone else's in the community, even with a tankless heater. The builder offered no help with this. ... More

This was my first time purchasing a home. I thought it was going to be amazing, but I would never recommend Lennar homes. I was not able to do a walk through until the morning of closing. After closing thinking the improvements would be worked on during the day after the walk through to come back at night to move in with half the house without electricity. The home was not cleaned prior to moving in. the fridge needed to be replaced thank goodness that was done, cabinets have dings in them. the tile is not leveled. there are unleveled areas of the walls. the carpets have nails sticking out of them. The building managers are not easy to reach I went through 3 of them since I moved in and only have been there a month. I am still waiting for things to be fixed. I love my home as slowly it is coming together but this building company is not the way to go even their workers advised me I should have researched more before buying from them. ... More

There were too many defects and incomplete issues with the home when we had a 2 hour orientation. Instead of being able to pay attention to the orientation we spent the time placing blue tape and could’ve used many more hours. One the final acceptance walk a week later it was better but still needed more than the 2 hours allocated to mark. Issues. It was clear that Lennar project managers failed to provide quality control of their vendors and also failed to inspect and make punch lists before we inspected the home expecting Us to do that. We provided 3 weeks full access to the home for Lennar to fix their issues after closing, but instead of project managers going through the home and doing quality control they only attempted areas that they documented as being punch list yet there were many more issues that were discussed but failed to document. Many issues were completed but there is still work after 7 weeks that are not complete. Blue tape on issue was removed and not repaired. Shabby repair of other items. Work ignored after multiple discussions with representatives. We are struggling with regard to how major items in the home work due to failure to provide the correct amount of time for orientation. We are now being advised to submit punch list items with the warranty process. This is punch list not warranty! In hind sight we should not have closed on the home until Lennar had completed punch list, which would have provide the leverage needed for Lennar to complete the home in a quality manner. ... More

The finishing work on our property was awful. We closed over a month ago and are still having troubles getting the repairs done correctly. Every time someone comes out to fix something they end up breaking something else. Make sure you do an in person walk through and note any issues.

First off, the sales team was wonderful and the buying process was great outside of one upgrade we requested that was blown off and ignored. The construction team however has been a pain to deal with. The initial QC walkthrough seemed pretty good but there are now issues that we keep finding and issues that were noted during our walkthrough still have not been addressed at all, two months later (as of this review). I work in construction myself so I know all the "pandemic issues" but that excuse can't be used for everything. I've heard from neighbors that they all have various issues as well, similar or even worse than our experience. Lennar is very clearly failing to hire competent and quality contractors. ... More

The house has poor craftsmanship, it looks they they just threw the home together quickly and didn't take time to check to make sure everything was done correctly

The overall buying process was relatively simple. The complexity comes when the workmanship and quality comes into play. Lack of attention to detail - not a lot of pride in workmanship. Outstanding issues from Settlement are taking months to get resolved. I'm hearing the same thing from other home owners as well. If you are able, I'd recommend not completing settlement until the issues are resolved unless you want workers in and out of your house for months.

Upon closing, the Lennar team, with a great emphasis on Danielle, have gone over and above to make sure that any problem or concern I have had have been resolved effectively and efficiently. Kudos to Danielle!

I bout a house in Saratoga spring Utah at Clover Leaf way about one and half month ago. Now on the roof on the side of the house it already got ripped of and it hanging one of the piece. It is just above the gutter. I called yesterday to waranty claim and no body get back to me till now. Poor work can damage entire house. Also painting is not professioanl , lot of place has touch up which can be visiable on the walls.

Overall I am happy with the buying experience. I lived out of state while my home was being built. Cindy was on it weekly keeping me up to date and answering questions. Now that I have been here close to 2 months, I am slowly getting inside issues taken care of. In my opinion the finishing around the bath tubs and caulking’s around the baseboard could use attention to detail. The home is beautiful inside and out.

I'm just glad it's over, and I'll leave it right there!

Substantial unreimbursed costs associated with multiple closing commitment delays. Terrible painting and painting followup.

When I first considered Lennar, I spoke to family/friends that had personal great experiences with Lennar which encouraged me to choose them, in addition to the floor plan options and the location of the neighborhood. I waited about a month from being pre-qualified to actually being able to sign the contract (which I understood because of the crazy housing market at the time). I was promised updates along the way - foundation done, roof being put on, cabinets being put in, etc. - which really makes the building process fun. I constantly had to reach out to my sales rep to get any information on the house, or had to visit the site myself to see the progress. I don’t think my new home consultant reached out once on her own to give updates; it was always responses (days later) because I reached out asking about the progress. Basic questions about the neighborhood weren’t really ever answered (where the mailboxes would be - told incorrect information, where and when dog park would be completed - never got an answer, when the pool area would be done - also behind the scheduled date they gave). When it came time to finally do the initial walkthrough, there was no leniency on scheduling to work with my work schedule because of other timelines in place - which I was a little annoyed but understood. And then when the initial walkthrough came around, basic stuff wasn’t ready - water wasn’t hooked up for the dishwasher or fridge, door knobs weren’t on every door, slab of cement that wasn’t supposed to be there was still sitting in the lawn, and more). Some of these items were still outstanding in the final walkthrough the day of closing. If Lennar is going to hold me to a certain timeline, they need to be held to their own timelines. Now, the warranty department has actually been a decent experience handling mostly cosmetic things that weren’t found during the walkthroughs. I was super excited to build, as this was my first time not buying a resale home, but I expected a better experience and was disappointed. I know every builder has their own pros and cons, but I was mostly turned off by the customer service (or lack thereof) I experienced throughout the process. ... More

Communication was poor, document requirements not clear

My only complaint has to do with the way HOA fees are collected. The homeowner should only have to pay one fee, Lennar can then take the total amount paid and distribute it to the different, golf membership, grounds maintenance etc. I don’t like having to pay four different fees, it’s a pain.

From start to finish the Lennar team has been great and my house turned out perfect. Would totally recommend.

I love my beautiful new home!
