Lennar Reviews

Overall mediocre experience in the home buying and owning process

The quality of the kitchen cabinets were not the best considering what we paid for the house

I have emailed 5 or 6 times about our garage door. It makes alot of noises(snapping,groaning,clunking) plus if the button isn't held down it stops sometimes

Really wish they would've taken there time more. You can really tell the house was rushed with quality of workmanship. I would've liked to move into a new house and not a 90% complete house. The first month was nothing but people coming fixing holes, texturing walls, painting, stucco repair, washing machine flooding, two windows not opening, damaged cabinets, missing/damaged molding, etc. It was quite irritating having tradesman in our house fixing things on a house that wasn't finished. Unfortunately with my kids starting their new school 3 days after the scheduled closing we had no choice but to move in. Take a few extra weeks and give people a quality house. I wouldn't buy a Lennar again. ... More

workers may not have very much experience on certain job done work on this house like paint putting fixtures.paint wasn't done right

I have a poorly made follow up on warantty repair, I kept recieving a docusing which I was not confirming I was emailing the person which sent it, but not feedback at all. Terrible service,

Take your time and if the person working at the office cannot Focus ask for someone else. I could have included more things I wanted after I spoke with neighbors. Also when I signed I would call and ask questions and never a response. Also contact Lennar Higher Level and Basically they protected the employee and only excuses. I liked the All Included but was it worth it? First Impressions stay with a person. Homes in Florida are not the Standard I expected. No interiar wall insulation for example

I am a repeat customer with Lennar and this experience was not at all like my first one. So many things were wrong with the house and we purchased in May. I was built too fast and no one paid attention to details. I would not recommend Lennar to anyone

All-in all i think I got good value.. the quality seems decent for the price though its only been a few months I have had no issues. The only upsetting part of the transaction was that it was made clear my closing date was set in stone and could not be changed (i asked to move it up even 3 days and was ignored). On the day of closing it seemed nobody knew i was closing. I reached out to my realtor a few days prior as i'd heard nothing and she didnt respond. I sent a frustrated email the day before closing because I hadn't heard a thing and finally got a response that was quick and impersonal - check your welcome email basically. The day of closing I asked Lennar who was doing my walkthrough and it seemed they forgot again I was supposed to walk through the home to confirm all the repairs had been made before I signed papers. Someone rushed over 1 hour before i signed and did a very quick rushed tour of the house. I noticed other neighbors had signs hanging on their garage with their names saying welcome to the neighborhood. I got nothing. In fact a few days later my sales person drove by and parked just outside my driveway and wouldnt even look at me when I attempted to wave or say hi. Very rude honestly.. I didnt feel very good about the whole process after I had been forgotten the day of closing and it was Lennar that insisted I close on that day without any alterations. I think if I didnt start sending a ton of emails and calls the day before I never would have closed. The worst part is! i found out the day before closing my street didnt have internet and there was no timeframe for when we would. It took over a month after closing to get internet. Who in this day and age can survive with no internet in their home? And to not even mention this untli day before closing!! ... More

There has been some random issues we’ve had to call in for warranty. Lennar is responsive, however each item has taken several days to get attention. Everything is at least one day for a telephone call, then a day or two to have someone come out. By the time they come out issues are usually fixed quickly. Aiden is very responsive and gave me his cell phone number and I’ve reached out with questions and gotten responses fairly quickly. I rated quality low due to my home specs was go be built with wood on the stairs and it wasn’t. Some various items was missed on building the home. We found the paint is not a great selection and anything that touches the walls leaves a mark. I hate that we already sang/need to repair with at least a satin finish to have it better quality. Electrical switches in many of the spots with several switches (to me) doesn’t make sense that the closest area is the further switch on the panels. Just small details that could be much better and wouldn’t have taken much efforts and no to minimal costs to please home owners a lot more. Overall we’re happy with our home this is just an honest feedback of items Lennar could improve on future homes. ... More

My experience with Lennar was mixed. I asked about purchasing a five-bedroom home at the same price as a four-bedroom with a home office, but was told the incentives would only apply to the four-bedroom option. The home was already pre-selected, so I didn’t have the opportunity to choose finishes or customize features. I also requested doors for the office space but was told that couldn’t be accommodated. Overall, I would give the experience a rating of two stars.

The main factor contributing to this low rating is all the incorrect information we were fed along the way by the new home consultant/agent. The most egregious being that we were told they would NOT be building any neighboring houses to one side of us. The agent even chuckled when I asked if we would have a neighbor on that side of our house because there was a big hillside appearing unsuitable to build a home on. I asked this question multiple times during the initial visit. This home had a $10k site/lot markup and we assumed it was due to the perk of having no neighbors on one side. After our offer being accepted, months later we later went for a walkthrough and saw they had brought in massive amounts of dirt to level and build another track of houses neighboring us where the steep hillside was previously. Not only that but they built the hill up so much that the houses will be looking down into our yard. We also asked repeatedly about the abundance of bees during our site visits and were assured they were not a continual problem and that they just pass through. This was not remotely true as we came to find out there is a large bee farm neighboring the development. I have a hard time believing this was news to the Lennar employees. At an early site visit I noticed how incredibly rocky, compacted, and uneven the soil was around the house and asked if they lay down decent dirt and level it prior to laying the sod and of course the NHC assured me their lawns turn out great and that they would just not lay it on the ground as is. This was also false and the sod has many dead spots that will not grow because of the giant rocks and compacted soil underneath. Extremely disappointed in the state of the lawn. I could continue stating these inaccuracies, but those are the big ones and you get the point… The positives were that the financing department (Lily) was great to work with and made up for the shortcomings of some of her colleagues. Also Lennar has done a good job of honoring warranty items after closing on the home. The overall quality of the home does not disappoint. ... More

From the start the buying process was terrible. It took up until closing to know if we were good to go for the loan from lennar mortgage. We were originally scheduled for a walk through the beginning of May. When we drove 4 hours for a 9am walk through, we were notified on site at the house that the walk through was moved. No one communicated this with us. The only formal documentation was sent 24 hours after our walk through. Do not trust the settlement contact to reach out to you. They will be unresponsive, and unprofessional. During our final home inspection walkthrough, there were numerous items we requested to ve fixed. Minor, but some still have not been addressed. The showers all leaked when we moved in, and has required someone to come out 4 different times. Come to find out, the showers were pulled out once already, without proper reinstallation. Ask for a copy of the house blue print as well. When trying to install blinds, we found out there's metal around the window, which made it so we are unable to properly install them. ... More

The selling agent, lacked experience , Kept changes the deal. Negotiating with texting and should stuck with email so I have a track of any changes. Thanks to the manager Penny who was able to take over and close the deal.

No manual in home. Difficult to find info on HOA. Had to take photo of critical information rather than be given pdf. All stages key contacts were slow to respond, from mortgage to closing to home ownership handoff.

The repair crew is great but these are very basic townhomes with a lot that could be better. The home buying process was difficult at best and the finishes are low end for the price.

Although Lennar is not a bad builder and i love the home the home buying process was poor. There were five different people I was to communicate with and it was confusing the purpose of each persons job. When I explained this they were not helpful and did not improve the process. Just said “you can call any of us.” But the truth was each person had a different job. Very confusing and frustrating. Once home was moved into and warranty issues were submitted many times the things I put in for couldn’t be fixed. Frustrating as a homeowner. Things that could have been told up front to avoid confusion and frustration and proper expectations would have been appropriate. ... More

We were excited to purchase our townhome and to get in on the first offering. We had a positive experience with our salesman and patiently waited several months as the finish date was delayed over and over again. Lennar’s fiscal year ends end of November. While we were on Thanksgiving weekend with our family, we were told that our CO was approved Thanksgiving day. (Nov28). Lennar’s sales manager forced us to close remotely Saturday the 30th. He threatened to find us in breach of contract if we didn’t. We spent our Thanksgiving holiday on the computer with a remote notary. It spoiled the experience for us. We lost all trust in Lennar. ...

The house itself is nice and a good value for the money. The process of buying the house from the mortgage lender all the way through the celebration and acceptance had MUCH to be desired. Issues riddled throughout the entire process. Warranty claims had to be reopened because they were incorrectly denied. Several issues were found during the celebration walk and none of which were addressed before the home acceptance. The only person that kept their word through the entire process was the sales agent, Dennis. Even when I told him of some of the issues that I was having he jumped right in to assist with getting things resolved even though it was not his job to do so. All in all I love the house. I just wish I didn't have so many problems during the purchasing process and fighting to get repairs completed. ... More

Upon final walk through house was not cleaned nor was it ready for the walk. Paint on all floors especially in carpeted areas. Multiple times said it was clean and wasn’t. Disappointed in finish out. Caulking looks like play dough was formed to fit. Marnina was excellent to work with Robert… not so much.

We had a miserable final walk-thru and we should not have closed without the issues being addressed. Quality of workmanship leaves a-lot to be desired. However, Nick the service rep addressed all of the issues in a timely manner and we are happy with our home.

Overall rushed, sell sell sell.a lot of feeling of false caring.

From the buying of the house to moving in with so many issues the house looks nice on the outside but that’s it and even then I still have to fix things if I ever buy a new house again it will not be with Lennar

The road noise from w.lake bld. Should have been disclosed. This is a heavily traveled drag strip.the plastic fence does nothing for roads noise. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to purchase here. Also wasn’t disclosed that we don’t own the club house.

Not happy my experience with Lennar Tittle I do not recommend to buy with Lennar bc his Tittle company had a bad practices. More than one moth waiting for my money to pay my cards. Still any clue how to pay HOA fees. Any information how to do many things,
