Lennar Reviews

I went with Lennar because I was under the impression it was a reputable company. The mortgage department is extremely unorganized causing a lot of unnecessary time, work, and stress. At closing, the end of June, there was a list of items still not complete. I was promised the items would be promptly addressed. As of today, 8/23, not one item has been taking care of. Would not recommend Lennar.

Please, please check Lennars review before buying!!! By far WORST experience ever. Bunch of idiots working there! Workmanship BAD! Very bad! Walls crooked, not responding to work requests and retaliation are just some of their qualities. Scott (main lennar builder guy) on question why is my half million dollars house so poorly built answered that he personally couldn’t afford one. Obviously, he cannot build one either. Never ever again. Do mot buy, save yourself headache.

Was a horrible experience, no communication whatsoever at any moment and builder was horrible

Poor quality construction Poor post closing support Very good marketing team

This has been the worst experience of my life

During my final walk- through inspection, I noted several items that needed taken care of and informed the Lennar builder representative of these requests (kitchen cabinets missing shelves, sloppy sheetrock mud and exterior paint already starting to peeling to name a few.) After being assured that these items would be corrected, I proceeded to sign my closing documents. After 7 weeks of moving into my new home, and several phone calls and messages being sent to the builder's office requesting service, I am still waiting for these items to be taken care of. In addition to this, I had the supply line under my sink break loose during the night flooding most of my home. Lennar did respond to this immediately and arranged for the plumbing company and a water removal/ remediation company to come that day. I'm hoping that Lennar will step up and take care of the damages that I incurred quicker than my recent experience with them has been. ... More

every things is no the answer give them deposit check for the house working on the loan told them i will go on vacation for two weeks they sold the house we deposit ;{

House was not done at closing but was forced to close with no recourse. Once closed, was told to call the warranty depth. House was barely clean at closing. I still get emails requesting a signature on a document that I previously had signed 2 times. I've previously purchesed 2 new construction homes and thus was by far the worst. Not happy at all.

the quality of work was very bad what you see on the model home was not what you get without saying one word about it, i do not recommend this builder to anyone

I thought people were unfriendly and at times dishonest. They submitted a form with a forged signature to the title company. The buying process was very rigid and not flexible. You are better off buying from a private property then dealing with lennar

Of course you don’t want last names.. everyone would give the same negative review for the same pitiful construction manager Aaron. There’s not point going on about my experience with Lennar, no one above cares to fix their problems. I just hope EVERYONE I share my experience with turns away from Lennar and saves themselves the headaches! Listen to your friends when they tell you stay away from a Lennar home!!!

Initially I was very excited to build my new home with Lennar. That changed rather quickly. My closing was delayed over 6 months. When issues were discovered during the final walk through I was threatened with a daily fine if I did not close. There are items on the punch list that have still not been addressed almost 2 months after closing. I have contacted multiple people by phone and email and there is still no timeline on when the issues will be resolved. Overall I am very disappointed with the process and I will never recommend anyone buy a Lennar home.

Multiple Service Request. Electrical, Irrigation Leak, Plumbing Leak that flooded the complete home. Newest Service Requests are Roofing Caps browned off and Mortar joint missing the Mortar. Only been here six weeks and have been living thru warranty repairs the whole time. Finish paint and caulk is very bad. Three different doors that need adjusting or weather stripping.

Purchased two townhomes in Lakewood Ranch. (Lorraine Lakes) Sales Rep for Lennar was completely unprofessional in his approach. Craftsmanship and customer services has gone by the wayside. Their a production builder and apparently hire anybody.

Overall, not what I expected. Sadly, Lennar was once a decent home builder, not any longer. Lennar are now all about the bottom line and keeping shareholders happy - a production builder! I owned a Lennar home in Wellington, Florida and Colorado. Both were decent homes. This home has been pulled apart within the first month of closing. The drywall removed to correct simple issues. Ones that the superintendent should have addressed during construction. I love the layout of the home but the level of workmanship leaves much to be desired. After one month of living in the home and trying to unpack, whilst dealing with drywall dust, I gave up for a few days. Drywaller’s, trim carpenter, painter all coming and going. Still a long list of ‘warranty’ issues EXCEPT these are not warranty issues. These are problems from before closing. I found a 4 page QA sheet that specified due to be rectified by 19 April! Did not happen. So now, I have to deal with a long list of items that the superintendent did not address before closing. The yard is being torn out today! The sod was installed and not watered sufficiently and I was told to give it time! When you have a couple of watermelon plants in your yard and one has a watermelon growing, you know there is an issue! The sod was installed on 17 April and looked good. Downhill from there. The sod company are professional but like homeowners have to deal with, they have to stay within the Lennar ‘boundaries’! The closing was planned for 26 April, then pushed back and then brought forward again. I lived in Colorado and had all of my belongings on a moving truck in storage. I had to keep changing the date with the company. I moved to Florida and closed on 5 May (whilst I had paid for 4 hotel stays beforehand) and then had to rent an Airbnb for 10 days as Lennar had messed me around so much. The truck was scheduled to arrive 20th May and I ended up moving into home on 15th May and sleeping on a mattress with camping chairs. I asked if Lennar could, at least, comp me for a couple hotel nights - crickets! Push, push, push to close and at one point I was ready to walk away from the $59k deposit! I was beyond frustrated. What should have been a new start in my life, has turned out to be a nightmare situation. Lennar do not work uniformly with all of the trades and the homeowner suffers. Customer service should be pivotal in this experience and sadly it is not! A homeowner should not feel like they are ‘one’ against ‘all’, yet that is my experience. I have been GC on two home remodels - one was a 7,700 sq ft home that took 11 months. I know true workmanship. I am experienced and know what is acceptable and what is not. What happened to you Lennar? What did you decide that quantity overcame quality? I would not buy a Lennar home again and wish I had bought an existing home and not a new build. ... More

During our closing day we walked in on painters touching up spots. The new home experience was completely taken away from us and nothing was done to make it more memorable. Most recently, as we started planing our basement work to finish our basement we realized that the water heater was placed just in a random spot that takes away square footage from the future bedroom. The reps told me because the house came with an unfinished basement the water heater can get placed wherever . It would be nice to have the water heater moved or be compensated for losing square footage.

Complete nightmare. From finance to HOA to builder response. We will tell all to never buy lennar

The whole buying experience was horrible. Once I moved in I found so many issues with the house. The AC drain line was not connected so there was water damaged and the dryer vent pipe was not put it. They had to cut the walls and fix the water damage and it took a month to fix.

My kitchen cabinets are still not finished and I have 13 cracked travertine pool times that are cracked, also on driveway paver is cracked. I should not have closed when I did. I trusted and never again

Be careful and double check everything

Very poor workmanship. Things are broken, and the builder is reluctant to fix them

My home buying experience was loaded with delays and disappointments. The quality of these houses is also not very good. I would look at moving somewhere else if I had to do it over again.

No quality on materials, no good finishing, no response on issues after closing.

Probably the worst craftsmanship I have ever seen. When you complain about it they basically tell you to close or they will fine you. It has been almost 2 months they still haven’t fixed drywall, paint, tiles, cabinets. James, Kyle, Stephanie all bad. They want the sale and that’s it. Kyle has to be the worst. Took go through the house and see the terrible job and put a stamp of approval is terrible what they do to the consumer. But as the manager Stephanie (I think her name was) it’s all about closing on homes for the investors. They’re mentality is don’t worry about the product being put out just close as fast as possible. Go with a different builder ... More

The experience was not really good did not keep us updated with the home, and closing was a mess.
