Lennar Reviews

Poor customer service, errors on financial Documents even after correcting them multiple times, worse home buying experience ever

Very poor quality workmanship. Built 5 homes and this is by far the worst one. Exterior painting not finished, house was dirty, electrical boxes installed with drywall screws, live wires not capped off, cracked concrete garage floor and entryway not repaired, drywall mud on woodwork and painted over, water leaking in garage. I could go on but this should give you a good idea of what to expect.

I had problems from start to finish. Wrong information provided more than once during sales process. During the closing I walked who told me the closing was today. During walkthroughs before closing the repairs printed out more than half of them were not fixed. I did them myself. The construction was of poor quality and messy. I found cut wires that I had to repair. The paint overspray I took care of. Due to Lennars late delivery it looks like everything was rushed in order for them to make up the time. This is my first and last Lennar home.

I never take these surveys but always will for Lennar. Out experience has been atrociously poor. 1 star is not a low enough rating. Ridiculous amount of issues with house and horrible customer service.

I wish that I never purchased a Lennar Home

After moving into my first new home, I quickly learned that I should have done much more research on homebuilders before signing the initial contract. 15 of 17 of my neighbors, myself included, who all bought brand new $400k+ townhomes, have had the WORST first home buying experience with Lennar. Starting from our unreliable and gossiping builder to the terrible corporate warranty request process and service. During closing, the real estate attorney even stated that many other buyers have had similar complaints and issues with Lennar. While sharing my home despairs, I also learned of a family friend who bought a Lennar home built in 2014 who also had an unpleasant experience with Lennar. I have been forewarning all my friends, coworkers, acquaintances, etc. to avoid purchasing a home from Lennar due to the negative experience I have had with them. ... More

Until today I am trying to change the door of the house entrance because it is a shame and nobody is responsible and I never really through that I would have such a bad experience for different reasons at home

Definitely did not do quality work. Fir as much as I paid I could have chosen a better builder.

Hi your reps were awesome. They really helped. Truly appreciate thier help with the microwave, they went above and beyond. I want to say more about them, but I just had surgery. I have asked Lennar and the Property Management company's Raul (that Lennar contracted) about the dead shrubs, plants and trees (just as I did about the dog poo and dumpster) nothing has been done. The city was called, not only by me about the poo, but also two other owners about the dumpster and grounds. I have owned since April, I pay $150 a month, apparently to maintain a very small pool and nothing else. Haven't seen one groundsworker the entire time I have owned. Have found dead large rodents lately scattered about, litter, etc..... Not a one.... Unhappy, not with Todd or James, but with whomever oversees and is supposed to respond to what appears to be a dump of a neighborhood that I invested way too much money in.... ... More

Very Good

Terrible quality and refusal to address issues. Construction manager is unorganized and dishonest. Closing never takes place on time; unnecessary delays due to poor management. Builder cuts corners and tries to force you to accept poor quality work. Would never recommend Lennar. Neighborhood is nice with great people, but the build was not a good experience.

Lennar builds homes fast. But without quality workmanship. Each home is u set intense pressure to build so fast lots of shortcuts and sloppy workmanship is the norm. Months after closing we are finding things that were covered up so they would close on time especially areas outside the house, like a drainage pipe covered over with sod so we had a flood. or on top of the house where vents were installed without covers and we had a leak. The fact that at closing the take $750 for future improvements does not go into the reserves to fix future hoa issues, it is pocketed by lennar. our reserves only had $2000 for a community of 200 potential homes. They also do not pay hoa fees on spec homes they have for sale again bleeding our reserves for when they leave the project and move on. Not a trustworthy builder at all. Will never buy a lennar home again. ... More

This is my first home and i must say i am disappointed in the quality of the craftsmanship. I've been in constant contact with Lennar customer service to attempt to set up repair services to fix multiple issues within my new home. Before closing i had to have the roof redone because it was not done correctly the first time. Over all i am not impressed with the quality of the work.

Horrible experience

Subcontractors are horrible Superintendents are useless and shady No supervision on the projects

Issues with water bill, from excessive water use from the sprinklers. I was told the day of the original walk-thru orientation that the water will be turned down b4 my move in, it wasn’t. I have spoken to several members of the staff on the property and I can never get a straight answer. It don’t help being a disabled veteran on a set income to get stuck paying an additional $300 water bill.

From the day I bought this home it has been a disaster. On the day I bought the home they were an hour late at the title agency and didn’t even have a room for us to close in. Then we ending up closing on a fold out table with some random guy who farted in my husbands face. Then our mailbox key didn’t work for over two weeks and then they had to rekey the mailbox. When we called our sales guy he said this has been a issue with a lot of home buyers. Why weren’t we warned before we moved in? On top of that the quality of the home is mediocre. I have lumps in my carpet, my floor creaks, the paint rubs right off the walls, the tile in the master shower grout has come up all over, the shower door creeks. The list goes on, every time I contact my rep it takes days for a response and I honestly don’t think I will every buy a Lennar home again. I own two homes my other home was built in 1978 and I have never had an issue, I bought this new home and have had more issues that I can count. ... More

This is the fourth new home I have purchased and is by far the worst experience I have had. No support whatsoever for their customer care.

So many issues. The entire process seemed rushed and unplanned. Not sure if this is how every new home buying experience is, but I would not purchase from Lennar again.

I have been in my house 4 months. The dishwasher, disposal and both thermostats had to be fixed or replaced. My roof has had to be fixed as well as my gutters. I think they are terrible builders, but they have fixed the items. Just seems it would be better if they did it right the first time instead of causing all the aggravation.

Our dream home purchase was the worst purchase experience of our lives, thanks to Lennar's quite unimaginable levels of ineptitude. No commitment to quality whatsoever at any stage of construction. No apparent desire to stick to deadlines. I, the home owner, seemed to be in charge of quality control - if I didn't catch it no one did. No commitment from upper management to make things right. I pleaded for help so many times, and just failure after failure ensued. No one from management ever even called or reached out to apologize for the incompetence. That's what you get for an $850K home purchase. You get better service at your local Taco Bell quite honestly - at least the manager there will say we are sorry when they mess up. Lennar management really should really find a different line of work. Folks purchasing their dream home deserve better than total lack of commitment to quality, total ignorance of deadlines, total disrespect towards the buyer, and total lack of any management basics. They really should be ashamed of themselves for the process they've built and continue to use. Every neighbor I've met feels the same way or worse to be honest. ... More

Terrible experience, can’t get into touch with Lennar for any help whatsoever, no one responds or returns voices. Many issues, a major one being locked out of the gate of my home community for multiple weeks because NO gate clickers or codes were provided at closing.

Poor Quality, Awful Experience, and Worst Service.

Was always told never to buy this builder by multiple realtor friends but went ahead anyways because I liked the house itself. Getting a response or getting them to take care of pressing issues was like pulling teeth. If you’re not prepared to continuously harass them for a response on any issue you have don’t buy here. As a first time home buyer this was an extremely disappointing and stressful experience. All these people want is your money, they don’t care about anything else. Good luck getting a hold of anyone once you close as well. Just go look at the community reviews. Now I know better moving forward. ... More

Lennar Homes needs to be investigated for shady unethical business practices. They sold me a home that they appraised at $545,000 and 2 days after I closed they reduced the sales price for the same exact home for $495,000, $50,000 less than I paid 2 days prior. Not only that the quality and workmanship is so bad that I'm not sure its safe. The first night I went to turn the bathroom light on and the plate/cover came off and then got hit with a bolt of electricity that didn't feel good to say the least. House was infested with mice both dead and alive because every door had gaps.. Gutters that weren't attached. Bathrooms without lights, mirrors, towel racks. Settlement cracks etc etc. I'm not happy ... More
