Lennar Reviews

My experience was and still a nightmares

Sorry, when reading this, the truth hurts. limiting the ‘truth’ from reviews is quite rich and unethical business practice. This is the one of many reasons why I ensure to tell everyone I know not to do business with Lennar.

Absolutely not worth the price, and worst service.

The quality of materials and specially the workmanship is way below the minimum standards. If I went back, I would go with another company. Low value for what you pay and I almost feel like getting catfished with this house. The original construction manager and customer manager were rude and refused to address all the issues. If you are in the market for a new build PLEASE look at the reviews on line for Lennar and PLEASE consider other options.

Windows separated from frame. Carpet cut short pulling away from floor. Walls are not straight. Bad drywall finishes. Doors don’t close right. 5 different shades of concrete, because they don’t know how to mathematics. Very poor workmanship for such an expensive house.

Every step of the home buying process was horrible. From the agent, to the contractor and now customer service won’t respond to us for a month. Every single person I come into contact with from this point on I will stir away from Lennar. Between the several realtors and businesses in our realm, we should be able to reach many of your potential customers to insure they do not make the same mistake we did by choosing Lennar as our home builder.

It was only about the sale - this whole house buying experience was horrible. It was all about the sale and nothing more than that. I closed on a house and was told that I had homeowners insurance and was even given a policy just to find out that my insurance was canceled two days after purchasing. To this day no one has taken ownership of what went wrong no one has called to apologize and I only found out when I went to buy new homeowners insurance. That’s not the worst part, Every time a vendor came to fix an issue that should’ve been fixed during construction they damaged something else in my house. They replaced my door it took four times for them to come out to get it right everything went wrong from the door not showing up to the vendor not showing up to the vendor breaking my new door and damaging my home. My air-conditioning still doesn’t work properly they made three appointments one of which they never showed up for never called and they were two times the contractor didn’t know what he was here for and was not prepared to fix the issue. The issue still it’s not been repaired and according to the manager there’s nothing they can do because the unit is incorrect. I have nothing good to say about this homebuying experience people in the office were speaking badly about my family and I and he got back to us through our realtors who overheard them and questioned about it they denied it until we presented them with the proof and still would not get a an apology. I would not recommend anyone to mile an hour homeBecause of all these reasons and many many more which I’ve quite frank frankly don’t feel like typing. ... More

Lennar is terrible all the way around starting with local representatives. I have been in my home for over 3 months and work still needs to be done in my front yard. From the start we had to move in with out our yard having SOD in place. Our final walk through was scheduled the same day as closing day ridiculous! Items found that needed repair or touch ups never got completed and our house was turned into us dirty and filthy even tho I was told a cleaning crew would come bye to deep clean the home a Brand new home!

After being closed for 5 months, one of our bathrooms still is not functional. The diverter valve which controls the flow of water between the tub and shower head was installed upside down which causes water to flow from both the shower head and tub faucet simultaneously. Weather stripping is still missing on the rear door (it was never installed). The list goes on and on. I would never recommend Lennar as a builder and would certainly never recommend using their mortgage service.

Not happy whatsoever. There has been multiple issues with my home. They have been dragging their feet on fixing them. The quality of workmanship is horrible compared to a house I sold that was built in 96. You also think they’d work on soundproofing knowing it’s a townhome community close to a highway, but no, you can hear everything. Their banking individuals during the buying process were also horrible, they dragged their feet and made promises they eventually broke and I ended up with a more reputable institution. If I were you, I’d stay away from Lennar. Treats it like the plague and get away. ... More

Requested my preconstruction meeting 4 times, IN WRITING, never happened. Was not able to do a pre-sheetrock inspection despite asking for one, they put the sheetrock up anyways. Had I known timelines, hence wanting a preconstruction meeting, I could have planned better. I did not meet A SINGLE person from the construction team until TWO WEEKS before I closed. Workmanship was described by A LENNAR TEAM MEMBER and my realtor as "embarrassing". They PUT THE WRONG BRICK ON MY HOME and told me, "We will give you your earnest money back but we are not fixing it.". I was one of the first to put a contract on a home in my section and the price increased significantly. If I would have taken my earnest money back I would have been doing them a huge favor, they would have sold it to someone else for $50K more than I paid. What was communicated to me from sales and what construction delivered was completely different. Do not get my started on the Construction Area Manager, I do not understand how this person even has a job. The only piece of my experience that has been decent is with Warranty repair. It would serve Lennar well to remember that buying a home is an emotional purchase and the market is not always this good. I will forever strongly discourage buying a Lennar home to anyone and everyone. What I listed here just scratches the surface of this horrible experience. ... More

Absolutely horrible experience. Horrible Quality , customer service, and the Vice President of Sales - John wanted to even try to fight and he became angry by clinching his fist and grinding his teeth and became aggressive in his stance and tone. There is no quality in this home and Cindy the superintendent is worthless. Things are slowly getting done months and months later thanks for John S and Tad. The subcontractors they are use are worthless too. No attention to detail and I had to tell them how to do there job and how they messed things up. Multiple people from lennar and the sub contractors attempted to cut corners several times in front of me even after I told them that it needed to be done correctly. I never asked for perfection. I will never purchase a lennar home or recommend them to anyone. ... More

Not to buy from you ever

There is really too many things to write a review on and the things we have submitted for work orders do not get fixed, I feel like I put my money into the wrong homebuilding company.

Many things in the house was not complete there were multiple plumbing issues no one wanted to fix the problems regardless of the fact of spending over a half 1 million on this home Lennar is not a good partner in service

All my tiles are uneven, I have been waiting months for my grading to be fix. Yesterday a light fixture fell out of the ceiling. The walls are extremely thin I can hear all the pipes when I turn on the water. The house was poorly insulated. The list goes on and on.

The one star says it all!

Call me at 7046162685 and I'll share all the bad experiences

No attention to detail. Workmanship is poor. Grass they laid down is terrible. Damages were done after I closed to my property from a Lennar sub and Lennar told me to handle it with the sub.

We bought a home here and there were few items reported for repair 4 months ago. Have chased both builder and onsite manager and no response so far. Would never buy home from Lennar in future.

our house AC flooded 2 months after moving in. It was a horrible experience and hardly anyone helped us get things resolved until the Regional Manager stepped in. Ken did an incredible job but all other employees of Lennar that I talked to seemed uninterested and negligent while our home was flooded.

After possession of the house, toilets flooded due to main pipe outside the street, and lennar was not helpful in fixing the problem or cleaning the mass inside the house

Run! Terrible experience. All around terrible. From workmanship to responsiveness. I wish no stars were aption.

Very disappointed with everyone involved from sales person to contractors and everyone in between. Once purchased issues are addressed in a very poor and unconcerned matter. Told not to except perfect in this new home build take what I got even though I paid full asking price. Never recommend Lennar to anyone ever

I went with an outside lender because they had a more competitive interest rate, which Lennar allows you to do. My original close date was 2/19. Due to a snow storm in Texas (A FEMA declared disaster) we were pushed to the following week 2/26. The appraisal company (hired by my Lender) was rescheduled for 2/23. The appraiser called to have the house be open and that they were on their way. They no showed. I couldn’t close on 2/26. This is where Lennar gets extremely unethical. Lennar tells me since I am “out of contract” at this point, that they are going to raise the purchase price of the home by $50,000. Mind you, it does not say in the contract 1. Where I am “out of contract” and 2. That they can increase the purchase price of the home. It does say if it is the Buyer’s default and buyer can’t close on time that they will charge $100/day until the home is closed on and 5% of the purchase price. (Mind you this is not $50,000). I met with the Lennar supervisor in my community (Maria R.) that has led me through the building/buying process starting back 7 months ago (Aug. ‘20) I expressed my concerns. She cried because she is ashamed of the company she works for. I also pointed out the core values of Lennar... they claim on their website they are of “Integrity, Value, Quality.” What is happening to me is complete LACK of Integrity. A falsehood of what they claim as a core value. An upper level manager (Edgar) gets back to me the next day and offers instead of 50,000$ increase, a 10,000$ increase. He says he can terminate my contract at anytime (which is true in the contract) and told me he can put my house on the market if I don’t take the 10,000$ increase. This occurred with no empathy expressed or willing to work with me due to the FEMA declared disaster snow storm. At this point, I have moved out of my apartment, I’m living with my parents. I have all of my belongings in storage. I have also been proactive through my whole building process. I put $1,000 for a down payment in good faith knowing I am serious about purchasing my home. I also wrote scriptures on the 2x4’s. I have been emotionally invested in my home. It is of very poor business practice for Lennar to handle my situation this way. A terrible experience for a first time home buyer. A true disappointment and total disgrace. It is clear Lennar is in it for the monetary gain only, not abiding by their core values whatsoever. I have let my colleagues, friends and family know of my poor and wrong experience with Lennar I will continue to share this awful experience on other social media platforms and review sites. ... More
