Lennar Reviews

Would not recommend. From misleading seller aT lennar to the HOA that is a iso telt unreachable, horrible experience with lennar. Wish I never started anything with them

In the first month after closing we ran into a few issues that couldve been avoided. Repair times tool longer than they should. Communication is not a thing with Lennar. The construction crews like to cut corners when building the homes. Lennar doesn't not fill the backyards with grass, some of ours is only dirt. Cracks in the concrete were immediately noticed after closing. Lennar title gave us the wrong amount for closing costs and almost delayed our closing. Our closing date was pushed back about 3 or 4 different times. Plastic bathroom walls were not pushed together correctly, construction manager basically told me im SOL. Grass that was put down was mostly dead prior to it getting here. Our backyard is constantly soaked with water by our back gate, lennar said we can't do anything to fix it. Our particular house was the 3rd house we tried to buy in a 7 month period. 1st one we decided not to go with a 3bd and go with a 4bd. The second home appraised for less than the sell price of the home. The 3rd house was the exact same floor plan as the second, and 2 houses down. Appraisal came in about 2k over sell price. The 2nd house that appraised for less, Lennar wanted us to come out of pocket 6k more, they were UNWILLING to work with us 1st time home buyers. Lennar added a 11k fee essentially due to where the house was located in the neighborhood, bringing out total from 263k to 274k. Even after the final walk though there were issues that weren't fixed, not the biggest of deals but still. About a month after being in the home, we came to find out we had a major gas leak coming from the back of our stove. The fitting wasn't connected properly on the back. I'm assuming during construction a screw driver was drooped into the plumbing pipe in the guest bathroom. Plumbers had to take out the floor, break the wall, base board and concrete to get to the pipe. Then they cut the pipe, took the screw driver out that was causing backup in our toilet AND bathtub. Took about 3 weeks for someone to fix it after multiple phone calls, texts, and putting in claims. Our attic door was not installed correctly. Attempted to have it fixed twice but still no response to it. Im sure I'm missing more stuff. ... More

I don't know where to begin with this awful journey we had on the home buying process. From lack of communication from the loan processing aspect to the abysmal workmanship done on the house. All I can say is, if you decide to go with Lennar GOOD LUCK AND GET YOUR OWN INSPECTION.

Purchased house was told I would get touch up paint, never received! Three boxes to replacement tiles, was told to text Nolan did on several occasions never received. Doors painted with semi gloss, touched up with flat paint. We have paint on carpets in bedrooms Just horrible

From the time we walked into the sales at the model home, our bad experience started. There was nobody there to answer your questions, you have to schedule an appointment to see a sales agent We felt like we have to beg just to schedule an appointment. He took us to a lot and we were impressed with the view the lot has to offer and which made us buy the property. But he did not inform us that a block wall was going to be built and will block the view he was highlighting about this lot. Lennar mortgage offered $6000.00 towards the closing cost, but opt not to go with them. The mortgage officer would not respond to my calls and emails! The delay in construction is not Lennar's fault but their lack of empathy for the buyers is. Our concierge did not inform us of the change of dates of closing which were a lot, I would find this out from our bank! After finally moving in, the sloppiness of the work is all over the house, especially the paint job. There is a lot more to say but I think this is enough. ... More

Overall the experience of this home was extremely disappointing and frustrating. The house was not clean and welcoming when entering a brand new home due to the following discoveries after closing: Damages to the walls, paint left on the floor, grout left on the titles, thermal expansion tank installed incorrectly twice, Green tape left on all of the bedroom doors, blue and green tape peeled off and left on the floor & carpets.Tire marks left on garage floor. the home was not cleaned and prep as promised by Lennar for closing. Many items that were identified during the walkthrough were not addressed. Multiple tickets had to be submitted to correct these issues. Even though some tickets were completed there are still pending tickets to complete many of the items listed above. Just recently discovered construction debris behind kitchen stove, the wall behind the stove still have writing on it from the construction and was not repainted along with the rest of the house, the base board mounding was left incomplete. Closet doors for three of the bedrooms needed to be readjusted, because they were poorly installed. Poor quality of the home, to have the peephole removed from the front door, although the homes were provided with the Ring security system, it would have been better served for safety reason to keep the peephole in the doors considering it’s human nature to look through peephole first before opening your door, instead of having to grab an electronic device to see who is at the door every single time. The time and money used to remove this feature from all doors could have been better spent taking care off some of the key items to completing the construction of the home properly. ... More

Don’t sign off on the day of your walk though. If there are issues to be fixed have them fix it before you sign off. I’m 7 months in an still waiting for them to fix a kitchen drawer that was blue taped the day off walk thru. Costumer service rep dose not care

Terrible experience. Cheapest products. All the way to closing. Never buying a lennar home again.

Till Today - 2nd Aug'22, The builder has not completed the work which they supposed to complete. It's a worst experience we all still have with Lennar. Because of you guys on broken sprinkler system.. I paid about $350 just for water. And have no proper response at all.

Not only was my house incomplete, but the work that was done was very poor quality. I was told workers would be back to complete the construction and never showed. My roof leaked and ruined a bedroom the second night I was here. I’m still trying to get repairs a month later. Absolutely horrible experience so far!!!!!

Our family's experience with Lennar, unfortunately, has been TERRIBLE. Lennar has completely ridden a hot market wave to take advantage of buyers and gotten away with poor quality finishing and broken promises. The home buying experience. We bought a home in Apex that was completed and closed almost 6 months after original closing date. When talking to the sales team given all the implications this delay had on our family, instead of listening, acknowledging impact of the delay, they took cero responsibility and blamed suppliers for their broken commitments. And yes, we understand the supply chain crisis impacted everyone, but knowing this was a critical time, with 2 years of pandemic to have adjusted to the crisis, Lennar did very little to stay ahead of the challenges. Very poor planning and professionalism to handle complexity. In our convo with the sales manager (John), a guy completely clueless, after the convo I really kept asking my wife how is he even qualified for the job. John agreed to follow up on a few points we had sincerely expected they could support, and instead of responding to these points on time how you would expect, almost a month later he responds to them, after multiple follow ups, and his response practically quotes the contract and how they are in no obligation to meet our request. He was right, but my point is, they didn't even try, ignoring and maybe even believing they had no responsibility. clueless. And this is not all, and probably an error we committed, but still something Lennar Sales team should have advised on. There is a sight triangle that goes through our property. As a first time buyer I didn't even know this was a thing, but the issue was, it was never really advised. Their sales team, could have taken a moment to inform this was the case and its implications, but it was completely omitted from their sales pitch. Closing At closing, the home was far from ready. They made a list of promises of things to fix. And it's been 2 months now and the list has not been completed. We've had to contest everything, because they don't show a genuine interest in helping and completing the job. If there was anything agreed upon by their construction manager, be assured that the post-sales team doesn't really care. They'll want you to have evidence because their word doesn't really count. Of course we should have known this, and even with evidence it's been challenging to get them to accept responsibility over their commitments. The home We've been shocked by the poor quality in terms of finishing for a single family home in Apex done by Lennar. They really don't care and expect their customers to simply be ok with it because the market favors the builder. Going up the stairs in our home, if you see underneath the rail, which you can if you are going up the stairs, the job seems done by children that are playing arts and crafts and not by professionals. The holes done for the rails are all uneven, no consistency, really done favoring speed vs a job well done. I've sent them pictures of how it should be and they said they could not do it that way, so you can't do it right? Overall, having the opportunity again, or hypothetically turning back time, I would never buy a house with Lennar. ... More

I was asked to close on the house that was not ready, i was told that everything would be fixed within a couple days however after two months the house is still not ready as multiple issues reminds unsolved and no one at Lennar homes will give me a straight answer or timeline.

Quality of workmanship & materials are sub par

The builder rushed to build my house. I’m still finding things wrong. Hard to get someone to respond to my concerns Gas stove want installed correctly which is very hazardous. Dishwasher wasn’t installed correctly either. Several electrical issues that had to be fixes 2 weeks after moving in. Wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone.

It’s been 2 months and there’s no scheduled time for my touch up painting to be done and they are now no longer working with the painter they used and don’t have a new one

I have been disappointed in the workmanship in my home as you can see I have not rated you, very highiy

Very bad experience, when buying the house the construction Manager Bob when to do a walkthrough in my house we did a list of what we need to by finish and repair, one moth later he says is not going to do the list that I have to do everything thru guarantee, I’m been living in my house for over a moth and my driveway is missing paver is not done yet the sidewalk is broken cracks all over, my shower enclosure is not installed, all the appliances are broken I have to call Frigidaire to apply guarantee because lennar don’t want to replace my appliances, I can’t use my dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator, gutters leaking, house haven’t been paint yet missing paint in doors, wall, baseboards and ceiling. Also my land is washing away to the lake I’m still waiting to fix problem is been a nightmare ... More

A lot of things are not in good shape when closing home. Staff members push you to close a new home, with a lot of things are missing or unfinished. Home was finished with low quality.

My experience with the builder was not good especially since they want to close before the home is complete and for someone that is a buyer from out of state is hard to check all the details of the final construction and in my home, there are lots of issue like paint, hold in the upstair stair broken or defected doors and for the high price that the home has the material, users is very low quality and the same that is listed on the home model .

The craftsmanship put into our brand new home is absolutely atrocious and frankly, I am appalled. From the sales staff to the construction manager and everyone in between, it has been an awful experience. Corners were cut while finishing our brand new home and it looks terrible. I want Lennar held responsible for hiring a dependable high quality finish carpentry company to come and fix the embarrassingly low quality, garbage level of work we are forced to live with and pay for. This is unacceptable and when expressing my frustrations to our Lennar warranty rep. we are left feeling like the house is our fault and that it is a "Production" home and there is nothing they are going to do. Whatever you do, never ever buy Lennar. ... More

Lennar is the worst. Zero accountability from top to bottom. Everything needed extra work or repairs and when problems were reported it took multiple calls and complaints to get any work done. NEVER close unless everything is 100% done and checked with a fine-tooth comb.

I had very hard time with Lennar sales person and Mortigage people ,they are not co-operative and they will not include any upgrades,we have to go with their recommendations , so f you want smooth process I will not recommend Lennar homes at all .

Worst new home buying experience ever and I will never buy Lennar home.

This was the most disorganized, poorly built community I've ever seen. Craftsmanship in overall decency is non-existent. I've had a couple of people within the organization that has been good, caring people. Ninety-nine percent of the rest do not care about you, your home, or your future family. The builders have rushed through the jobs without making sure that things are safer, making sure that things are secure, or complete. We had people peeing in the toilet painters. We had painters painting outside of the house that we're supposed to be washing the brush we've had every single thing possible Under the Sun wrong with this house we were forced into closing this house and where are already almost nine weeks past closing and the home is still not ready. We haven't been able to move in. I'm not going to write bad reviews or reviews. But I tell you, I'm not going to write bad checks or reviews. But I tell you, if you are going to buy a home, I will steer clear of Lennar homes right now. I can listen to every excuse imaginable I have, but nothing is got me closer to complete. I've only asked for one thing build the house the same way you'd want it made for your own family, no better, no worse. I have yet to have one person say that they would be okay or want to move their family in there. We've been put out; shutout left out. We had the home built drywall in with no we had the house being constructed drywall in with no windows in the middle of rain storms without even putting a piece of plastic over a window. We were told that the windows in the garage that had been sitting there for three weeks were not the right fit. That had to have been the reason to find out after seven more weeks they were the windows they put in the house. They were also covered in paint. we're still not even home yet and they are still at least a couple weeks away from fixing the things that they've already broken. I hope this somebody out there at least question what's going on. Jose again there are a couple people that have been tried to be helpful but their voice to actually do a change has been shut out by the bureaucracy within the organization. ... More
