Lennar Reviews

Lennar rushed their product. It shows in the lack of attention to details in their finished product. Also, closing was a nightmare.

During this 6 months Journey our house practically build itself without any concerns or diligence from any of the construction managers. Outstanding issues like the shifting of our entire foundation was never even recognized unless I physically came over to the construction site and made them aware. Our Sales guy Patrick was completely oblivious of the status of our home and when we asked for any updates we would always have to wait for days before getting a response or would never get one at all. Our “Construction manager” changed 5 times during the course of the construction process, and in a few cases the home had no CM assigned to it. They all would say that “they really didn’t know what was going on with our home but that eventually it was going to get built…” We paid about 400k for a home that never felt that it was being built for us. There was no structure and no organization and definitely no communication from the operations side to the home buyers. You cant pretend that people spend this amount of money just to be kept in the dark until the home is completely built. This has not been our first home purchased but it has definitely been the worse. The finished product was unfinished. And we had to make over 30 warranty claims so that they can complete all the outstanding items. Without mentioning the huge grading issue that we were left with, the home being painted the wrong color, the electrical being wired wrong and the knee wall of our loft upstairs being completely loose. I HATE writing bad reviews and over analyzing a purchase. But honestly this process was so bad that it demands the attention of higher ranking personnel. ... More

I have worked with several other builders and this home buying experience with Lennar by far is the worst. Builder rushed closing when the house was technically not ready. Lots of issues were promised to be fixed by move-in and ended up taking over months. Severe plumbing issues were found and quality of workmanship and materials is way below standard. I will never buy another house from Lennar again.

Don’t try to buy a home around the fiscal year end or any fiscal quarter because your home will be slapped to get it off their books and try to show a good profit. So many problems from rushing through a NHO to closing that problems and issues were not fixed or prior to closing due to doing a “Pre-sign” for closing.

I really have nothing good to say about the experience. Lennar is very slow to respond to issues. I would absolutely not recommend asking for any upgrades as I promise those will get screwed up too. They have already moved on to building the next phase of homes and see little urgency in helping to fix issues with their existing homes. I hope my experience is unique but I don't think it is from what I understand. Good luck if you choose a Lennar home - you'll probably need it

Quality is questionable.They are charging huge money for average or less than average quality. The appraisal of the home is another big issue.If you are unlucky you are ending up paying 50k more for exactly same house booked on exact same day!!All in all no transparency!

Horrible service and worst process I’ve ever been through while buying a home

Not responsive to quality of workmanship and materials.

Irresponsible project manager and low quality of workmanship. My worst experience ever from buying a new home in years.

Very Bad. experience. Terrible craftsmanship.

We were given the opportunity to "punchlist" the home and many of the items were either unaddressed or the tape marks remained after we moved in. The craftsmanship was really poor, as well as the quality of materials. The project superintendent talked down to all of us on the buyer side, including arguing over a clear code violation until it had to be escalated above his head. It was very clear that the priority was speed to market and margin over any sort of pride in their work or customer satisfaction.

Would not build with Lennar again

This is not the first time our family purchases a Lennar home which is the reason we are shocked and disappointed by the poor experience. Our home was delayed and finished months later than expected. At closing, items were not finalized. We were promised these items would be addressed in a timely matter. It has been months since closing and the customer service rep and construction manager are not responding to our inquiries as to when the “temporary items” will be finalized. To top it off, the interior finish has several poor quality products that were visibly damaged at installation. To say we are disappointed is an understatement. We regret the purchase of this Lennar home. Would not recommend. ... More

This home was poorly built. We has purchased a Lennar home before so it made sense to stick with Lennar as our MUCH less expensive home was built much better. I'm embarrassed to tell ppl about this $600K home because of the crooked walls, terribly low quality &very poor workmanship. Up until this purchase I raved about Lennar. No more! Now I guide ppl away from Lennar at all costs

Lennar use to have a great reputation for a builder but all has changed today. They try maybe not enough workers but Lennar is not what it use to be. One reason I bought this house is because of Lennar's reputation but all has changed. Maybe this note will help them go back to the quality they use to have instead of trying to build more house than they can handle. Thank you!

TOO MANY ISSUES FOR A BRAND NEW HOME

I do not recommend! To any service member.

Not great, very disappointed with process

Very poor craftsmanship,from the wood framing ,siding,tile,etc.Would not recommend Lennar at all.

They only mean business. They dont care if u missing something. They only nice when u buying. After u complained, They just ignored u. Basically do it yourself kinda thing. Lennar care is good thou. They help u out. Others, thry only good when they dont receive the money yet.

I had a very unpleasant experience. I had bumpy walls that had to be redone after moving in. The frame had to be shaved off. Water leak from the kitchen ceiling after rain. Fireplace malfunction and not practical for use.

Stay away from lennar, costumer service disappears the second you sign the contract. Furthermore they will lie to you about the build quality and potential issues the house might have until you have signed. Do yourself a favor and find a different builder.

Don't ever buy a house over the internet. I used my daughter for help, but my biggest mistake was not coming to Las Vegas myself. I had to buy the home as is, not thinking Lennar did not take care of this house. Its too many things to mention that is wrong with this house, but I'm paying for it now. Never Again !!!

I recently bought a home with Lennar and it was a horrible experience all around. Worst customer service but I could have been ok with that had the workmanship been up to par however when I did my walk through cabinetry molding was literally hanging from the ceiling, floors were the wrong color, tack strips were completely exposed under the carpets resulting is blood being drawn multiple times from stepping on them, no appliances or hot water, and that’s just to name a few of the many issues found just based on workmanship. When confronted with the obvious poor work we were met with “this is normal” and “you can only expect that level of workmanship from a full custom home.” If I could go back in time I would never work with this builder again mainly because they refuse to even make things right. I understand things happen but when you gaslight a customer and refuse to fix the mistakes made that speaks volumes about a company. ... More

Choice is theirs. But do not expect a lot. Quality might be lot lower than expectation of buyers. Everyone who saw my house felt sorry for me. And check their included GE appliances especially. Not even buyers choice but buyers will have to deal with the problem.
