Lennar Reviews

My adjuster was a buddy of mine. He worked with lennar to get everything going. All this emails and online paperwork was to much. Lennar should give people options to get things done in person. Random people from lennar kept sending me emails. I didn’t know who to trust. I was given no option to get things signed in person. I had to read everything I was signing and had no one tell me what I was signing. Everything felt RUSHED. I disliked buying from lennar. I’m never buying from lennar again.

I buy my house in 2 months already but don't see who coming for home warranty I don't even know what her or his name.

Get it in writing because once the paper are signed you are TUFF LUCK!

You Learn a lot but more after your purchase.

The workmanship and attention to detail is subpar to say the least. Drywall 2-3” short of the floor, hidden by the base boards/warped plywood underneath the carpet/everything painted over from the floor to returns to windows and doorknobs. Little to no insulation in the attic after being sworn to that it met standards. I could go on but you get the point. Pretty embarrassing to turnover a home like that.

If you are buying a Lennar home, please be aware that the quality of craftsmanship is very low especially with drywall. Get a home inspection completed. Also be VERY detail oriented during your walkthroughs. Take pictures of where the blue tape is so you can check if issues were corrected. Check drywall in corners, under cabinets, in closets, at baseboards, etc. We moved in on Dec 15, 2024 and have had several issues so far (multiple scratches/dents in flooring, our living room closet door fell off the door frame-screws fell out when the door was open, carpeting needed to be stretched to fit properly at a transition into the laundry room). Lennar so far has been responsive and have corrected small issues. We were instructed to put in a warranty request for the multiple areas of bad drywall (not due to settling, just poorly done) for the 60 day service which we will see how that is handled. While we like the overall floor plan and structure of our house, we are very disappointed with the quality and need to have pretty much every wall in the home repaired, considering the price point. Do your research before buying with Lennar. ... More

I will never buy a home again from lennar. The house was build very poorly. I will not recommend anyone to buy.

Lennar quality in work is not up to par for what you pay for. Cheap cabinets, driveway done incorrectly and answering back with concerns is awful.

Whole lennar team could have done a better job to make this buying experience memorable in a positive way, which obviously lacked.

If I had to do it again I don’t know if I would purchase another Lennar home. Several little issues, terrible finishes on the walls lots of drywall mud globbs they were just painted over. Tape on all the roller ball catches never removed. Gutter on lanai still leaks , lanai floods everyone it rains, neighbors house amd lawn are higher then mine so all his water runs to mine . Who did the survey for these houses did they know how to use a transit . None of these houses should be low at all every home should be set at 6” min above finish grade . Also the drip pan on the condensate is not connected to a drain line I was told by code it doesn’t have to, so what do you do with the water buildup in the pan . And who decided to put the driveway pavers under the overhead door seal . Who in there right mind would think the seal is going to work as it can’t settle into the paver joints again letting water into my garage. Also who picked the fixtures as well the towel bar and tissue holder in the baths would it make to much sense to make sure they matched , brushed towel bars and tissue with chrome faucets ? Cheap plastic toilet seats, constantly find little imperfections on trim, drywall and paint . Been in the construction industry for 47 years the last 10 as a QC PROFESSIONAL who if anyone does your QAQC prior to turnover , as well at turnover you provide no literature , list of fixtures, appliances, hardware , doors , windows , paint, interior and exterior, pool equipment, floor tile manufacture and color, ...

Quality of the material are not good. I think it woyld be good if they could have listed the appliances info during the buying time. All appliances are very basic and low quality. Construction quality is also low. The responsiveness for the issues reported is very bad. I would recommend before buying discuss with everything and go for it.

Walls are crooked and you can tell by the baseboards, how hard is it for the superintendent to put a straight edge on it to check and say something to the framers to fix the issue, plumbing issues slow drain or no drain, had 3 plumbers out here to repair issues, flooring has issues, either scratched or scuffed, doors are squeaking bc they use mdf boards as door frames and the hinges are touching it, so when you open the door they make noise. Entire home was 379k and has no brick at all, it’s all Hardieboard, above garage I had to put caulking bc the siding had a1/2” gap and I didn’t want rain water to rot my new home away in a few years. One word - ridiculous of what they consider a good home builder. Conclusion - I would never buy a house from Lennar again. ... More

Warranty Sharmin builder Travis both of very bad Response too late and all the yelling me I’m coustomer

Since closing, Doug has been fantastic and responsive to the issues we've found. Kudos to Doug. The issues needing immediate attention are the bent bedroom window frame that was unable to close once opened and a hole in our shower pan that we missed during the final inspection but found during the first use. We chose to redo all the baseboards and door trim in the new home and discovered dozens of trim nails, no shims, and no nails holding doors in place. Three door frames fell out of place, and I reinstalled them using shims and three-inch screws. I did not contact Doug because I would not have noticed the poor work had I not removed the door trim. I did warn neighbors if they chose to follow along with upgrades. The month leading up to closing was the worst customer service I've received in six years of living in Las Vegas, especially considering the $700K home sticker. Alex, the "concierge," communicated very poorly. I truly recommend removing him from the staff, considering other neighbors experienced similar issues. He was absolutely terrible and sullied the Lennar home-buying experience. We considered walking away from the home, but we loved the location. When we expressed our willingness to walk, Roy stepped in to cover for Alex's poor performance. We purchased the home in November and were told to expect an end-of-February move. More communication is needed to plan an official signing date. Yet, Lennar claimed this initial conversation set our signing date in stone—over two dozen back-and-forth emails and phone calls to cement a date, a wild experience for two full-time employed homebuyers. My wife works for a luxury home builder in Vegas, which set our expectations for Lennar to fail spectacularly. It's genuinely appreciated that Roy came in to remedy Alex's failures, but the frustration to get there enraged us the buyers, and Lennar employees covering for Alex. We unfairly took out much of this frustration on Tom, but he was an absolute beast. I do apologize. We noticed exterior cosmetic issues during the early stages of construction and reported them directly to Tom, and he handled them all exceptionally and promptly. Thank you so much for exceeding your role and genuinely stepping up. Tom and Frank did outstanding work and deserve praise. Again, Alex deserved the earfuls, but he was never available. I believed this was a one-off, but I confirmed through our new neighbors that Alex does not understand his role in Lennar processes. I believe Lennar needs to work on communication with home buyers and common terminology, such as "celebration day," "acceptance day," pre-walk versus blue tape, and overall expectations. I've purchased several homes and always had clarity about what was happening, but these terms seem unique to Lennar and need to be explained better. I used Reddit to figure out most of it; again, solid communication took a lot of work. Richard, from Lennar Loan Services, also helped immensely and responded to emails within minutes. Many emails were sent at night and on weekends, as concerns usually do, but Richard responded within minutes every time. This guy lives the teleworking life. His whole team did great and deserves praise. We felt sweet-hearted about the purchase because of the initial care we received. That interaction with Roy raised expectations, and we were excited when we chose Lennar. In all, we love our home, and although we gutted it and changed most of the interior, Avery Pointe is an excellent location with stellar views of the valley. Customer attention and service demands improvement. I continue to recommend the neighborhood to friends and refuse to allow a lacking concierge experience to ruin my new home high! Applause to Doug, Roy, Richard, Tom, Frank, and the other construction supers on "acceptance day." ... More

We’ve had numerous issues, please keep your eyes peeled for lackluster workmanship. We have over 100 lose, broken, chipped tiles and have a damaged cabinets, doors & door frames. Do not allow the CRM rush you through the walk thru.

Only in my home little over two weeks and my sewer line backed up. Only one person. Blamed it on me. Unbelievable

As a first time homebuyer I was excited for the process and now I’m upset and disappointed with the whole thing and wish I didn’t buy the house now since moving in the home I have had 5 issues, and the biggest problem was a leak leak and garbage disposal leaking watering all under the sink and let not talk about the voucher they provide that you can’t even use,, The dishonesty and the communication here sucks

Bought a few homes before and have never experience such poor workmanship and quality of products used. No quality control such sloppiness in painting and concrete work. No one wants to take accountability for the poor workmanship. I needs some items fixed but do not trust that the issues would look or be fixed any better than they do now.

The salespeople were nice, and the lending department was great. But when you buy a brand new house, you expect things to be like new with no issues. We've had issue after issue with this home - from floor to ceiling, exterior & interior. The "warranty" office lies to you, takes forever to get anything done, and does not follow up. We loved the layout & the neighborhood seemed nice- but the work quality is not good.

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
