Lennar Reviews

Lennar doesn’t drop prices, Lennar doesn’t help with closing fees, and Lennar doesn’t put lights in bedrooms! Lennar doesn’t help at all! My experience with LENNAR was my worst experience ever. I’ve purchased many houses across the world but I’ve never once seen something like this happen.

Ha just talk to your vp

Home buying experience was as bad as it gets. Delays, LACK of commutation to no communication. Closing date got pushed multiple times. Sales Rep was terrible. Only one person who interacted with us during final inspection was good and as professional you would expect when you are making biggest purchase of your life. Due to the delays in closing, my interest rate went up, spend much longer in rented apartment, could not plan for the move. Had to rent extra storage for Furnitures we brought. Due to lack of communication, I had to constantly follow-up to get some sense when the home will finally be built. ... More

I just bought a property at lennar at Lakeland. This is the worst experience I have ever have. They took 2 months to install the motorway and shelves. The ceiling over the island kitchen is already leaking. There is water from the ceiling and leaking over the island kitchen. 2 months.

Very poor customer service. Very rude management.

I am a repeat customer with Lennar. Technically I purchased with Cal Atlantic my first home and about a month before closing, Lennar took over. However, my home stayed with Cal Atlantic team until closed and it was a wonderful experience from beginning to finish. The Cal Atlantic sales team was thorough and welcoming and even met me on the day of move in to walk my home. I never put in a single work order. Since Cal Atlantic got bought out by Lennar, I figure that they would have the same quality and customer service, but boy- Lennar is way inferior to Cal Atlantic. The buying experience was terrible, I didn’t know who I bought from and could barely get to respond to my emails and text messages. I bought at a high time and lennar must have banked on capitalizing on that because they provided NO customer service. However, how you treat people comes back to bite you and I am seeing that. The market has shifted. It didn’t stop there- we didn’t have anyone walk us to our home on the day of close (they can’t use Covid as an excuse) as we closed in October 2022. Lennar is just lazy. Our house was a wreck, the details were horrible, this was nothing like the model. Cabinets has dents, nails protruding, my shower head didn’t have hot water until 7 mins, and didn’t have any pressure. No electricity in some rooms, leak under sink, dish washer not mounted, dents in baseboards, cracks in tubs, the lists goes on and on. When speaking and follow up to customer service, they were dishonest and kept on trying to tell, my shower because it’s in the master that it’s hard to get water up there. I called a plumber and there were rocks and debris that were in the shower head causing the issue. Lennar tries to tell you that these things are normal so they don’t have to come back and fix it. But it’s been a horrible experience with entering work orders, you have to waste your personal time to wait for them to call you virtual to verify and take photos . Then you have to wait for a trade to call you to schedule and be home for the trade. It’s a full time job and will take away from your time working. It’s ridiculous. Our street, 50% of the homes have active leaks from the rain right after moving in because of missing roof tiles. Thank goodness our gutters installation caught ours and notified us before the rain otherwise we would have been in that count. Do better, Lennar! Stop being crooks and taking people’s hard earned money and start living what your company core values are. Start with honesty and quality. ... More

We almost pulled out of the purchase after we were misled on closing dates and the reason why our home was delayed. The project was poorly managed and the builder tried to blame the utility company but the truth was Lennar failed to secure a timely building inspection. The communication from the sale agent was appalling, we were encouraged to sign our contract on the Wednesday only to be told 16 hours later that the close date of the following day Friday was again delayed. This was my 21st home purchase/sale in 32 years and my second new home construction purchase and I would not buy with Lennar again. I am appalled at the failure to communicate in a timely manner and to relay the true reasons for delays. To top it off when we finally closed escrow, 2 months late, we picked up our keys and garage door openers only to be given the opener for our neighbors garage door. Honestly the miscommunication, disorganization and inefficiency made me not want to buy the house... ... More

The home was poorly finished. Lennar massively delayed completion, cut corners on construction quality to try to force completion, and skimped on promised appliances and fixtures. I am repeat buyer from Lennar, but my experience was so poor this time that I will not buy another home from Lennar and advice friends against it as well.

First, the good. Lennar's model homes in the Emerson Palmer community in Henderson look great. The bad...the house we bought was NOT built with the same QUALITY as the model homes. Blame it on the pandemic, supply chain shortages, and worker shortages I guess. But the construction and quality of the house were terrible. I hired a home inspector and he found over 50 defects both inside and outside of the house. Lennar was in such as rush to build their houses that they sacrificed quality control to save money and to meet their deadlines. Big inconvenience to the home buyer if you really want the house. Lennar attempted to fix most of the issues but a lot of defects were still present at the time of closing. You always have the option to walk away before close but then you lose your deposit. Which is an advantage for Lennar. The sad part about the whole experience is that Lennar never admitted that there were any issues with the house. They left it up to me to find the issues. And of course, after the close, we found more issues. However, Lennar's customer service was fairly prompt in fixing most of the new issues. It appears that Lennar hired low-cost workers with very few skills to build their houses. But I have no proof of that. At this point, I would never buy another Lennar home and I would definitely not recommend Lennar to a friend. Lennar: Let me know if you want a copy of my home inspection. ... More

The only positive experience that we had was with our Lennar realtor, Brandon. That's the only good thing that I have to say about the whole experience.

Always is somebody else in the company to blame. The seller agent offer incentives and sign them on a contract and then is a corporate problem we can not fulfill them. The lender blame the seller agent then his boss go sick then the lender is on vacation. Then the warranty agent blames the builder the builder blame the workers then nobody answer the phone then is something else. If Learn something about Lennar is they always excuse themselves with somebody else. But when you work for the same company. Me as a costumer don’t care in which department you work. Never again

The model home we looked at was absolutely stunning. We were told that we would get the same quality as the model home. That was COMPLETELY 100% not the case. We purchased a brand new home that looked like it was a 20 year old remodel that someone let there brand new employee with no experience do. I will say Kyle the construction manager tried but there was little he was "allowed" to do to correct the issues. The project manager Aaron was extremely rude and arrogant to my husband when we expressed that the house was not 100% and that we didn't feel like we should close on it. We were essentially bullied into closing. We love our home I just wish that we hadn't had to finish someone else job when we purchased a brand New home. If I had my time to do over I would have defiantly not bought from Lennar. I would have gone with a custom builder. ... More

Worst experience ever, will not buy house from Lanner FL any more.

Buying a home from Lennar has been a terrible experience. The quality of the home is not good and customer support from Lennar has been awful.

Our experience with Lennar is that outside of the construction managers, there is a substantial lack of follow through and integrity.

House was very dirty at the time of sale. Many items were not finished. Still lots of trash under the deck. Basement was left unbelievably dirty. People were mopping the floor with dirty mops in front of us during final walk through. Lennar tries to rush in the sale of the house, but don’t really care about the quality. Really bad experience to say the least.

We had problems before we even signed the contract. We should have taken that as a sign and not have went through with it. The communication and respect has to be most disappointing part. Buying a new house is supposed to be joyous moment and instead it was just met with people that didn’t care. From the sales person to the super I was beyond disappointed with the professionalism by Lennar. The day of closing will be a day I never forget and not in a good way. When you close on a house and don’t even receive the keys what’s the point. I can truly say that I’m ashamed to be a trade partner and have my company name associated with this disaster. Meeting new neighbors as only became a competition of who had the worst experience. For the record I respectfully lost that competition. I will give a huge shoutout to our customer care rep Kami as she has been the only one to genuinely care and try to make things right. I also know this review doesn’t mean anything and judging by the whole process we’ve had no one at Lennar will care. ... More

I had a terrible experience as a first time home buyer. Lennar proudly keeps saying they have very high quality standards which are no where near match with the output of these homes. I had multiple issues right from day 1 which includes (list continues) 1. Poor inspections 2. Construction team only cares about closing homes but not standard of quality 3. Attitude of customer care is not customer friendly. 4. Teams have multiple communication issues. 5. Sales team is has absolutely no clue on project deliverables when the timelines change. 6. Incomplete painting work 7. Loads of construction dust left around in cabinets etc 8. Construction manager who came for closing never followed up again with us to check if all the issues where addressed. 9. Lennar teams are never responsive and dont care about customer satisfaction. I would strongly not recommended a buyer to Invest their time and money in this venture. ... More

Its not worth to buy. Lots of challenges and pains.

This review is a redo of the previous one. The system did not like that I said the truth about the transaction. All my words were decent, grammatically correct and in formal tone. No bad words were used. Lennar is not the best company to buy a house from. They are border line on breach of contract for the product that they give. Complaints are never satisfied.

Make sure before you close you have builders fix any issues don’t sign and let them promise that it will be fixed

Lennar is no longer the company that use to be. The quality of their new homes is truly sad to see. My issue can be summarized in one sentence: Brand new home with a huge leak on the roof! Took MONTHS for them to resolve the issues. All they care about is closing closing closing. Consider other options for a new home purchase.

I buying a Lennar home was a dream come true, until it became a nightmare. The quality of the materials use is more than poor, so is the workmanship. Tiles are uneven, frames are bad, house feels weak, carpet and floors are not set properly. House was never prepare or clean as promise, defective electrical appliances. Overall a very bad experience, that I wish I could get out off...

We are very disappointed. It’s already been a month after the closing and a lot of works still not done.

Probably the worst consumer buying experience in my life. I have bought many new homes, from many different builders and the lack of professionalism I experienced from this home builder goes beyond description. I'm so over my Lennar home purchase fiascos that I'm just done even mentioning it anymore. I will never.... ever.... ever.... spend my hard earned money on another Lennar Home nor will I ever recommend them to anyone I know or who inquires about my experience with this builder..
