Great service

  • Philip V.

  • Celina, TX

Norman was excellent. Really the glue that held the whole thing together. That said, allowing the pipes to freeze with water pressure still in them, and the subsequent damage and delays that followed due to the water damage was an utterly stupid failure. Other than that, everything has been great. We enjoy the house very much.

  • Olga S.

We are so happy that we have found our new Covello home in Great park built by Lennar! It took us several exhausting months to find this home and it was absolutely worth it. Everything is amazing starting from the home itself and finishing with our new neighbours. The process of buying was smooth and quick, all Lennar representatives were very comfortable to work with. Hopefully our review will help many other families shorten the time spent on finding their dream place to live!

"James to the rescue"

  • Joseph B.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 31, 2021
  • New Braunfels, TX

First I have to thank " James" in sales he was the best, help with each style of home and much more. He made sure we saw all available homes and explained each one. Great value for your money and there is no comparison to the other builders we looked at. Lennar makes sure everything is finished and looks great before you take possession of the home.

Lennar - Everything went smooth until after closing.

  • Kimberly D.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 31, 2021
  • Gallatin, TN

Everything went smooth until after closing. I moved in with broken windows and a promise they would be replaced. 4 months later I’m still waiting for them to be replaced. The lack of communication is ridiculous. I called the “customer service rep” and he didn’t even have the decency to call me back. His response to my phone call was to just copy me on an email to someone else . Didn’t even waste his time sending me an email directly addressing my issues/ questions.

Sales person lack of communication as well as not forth coming when there was delays

  • Mount Holly, NC

Lennar builds a sub standard home with the lowest commercial grade of material to be used. You buy a Lennar home because of the community not because of Lennar. I would not recommend them as a builder and would avoid them if I decided to purchase another home in the future.

They don't communicate well. I had to make numerous calls and speak to various people before I learned the real reason why my home wasn't finished. At times I felt that I was being misled until I found people who told me the reasons for the delay.

  • Bonita Springs, FL

We closed 4 months ago and I'm still waiting for items to be repaired/replaced. I've made numerous inquires and all I get is stalling. Some of the finishes aren't the best and after you close you have to spend a small fortune to customize the home. Lennar doesn't allow you to do it during construction when it would be cheaper and easier. Next time I will use a true custom builder.

The Lennar Experience

  • Philip H.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 31, 2021
  • Gaithersburg, MD

The Lennar experience can be broken into a couple categories: buying and construction. The buying experience was frustrating and unprofessional. Our home delivery was delayed by 6 months, and the permit process was out of Lennar’s control, but the communication breakdown was unprofessional. We changed our point of contact four times, and were left in the dark unless we reached out for updates. We could anticipate that the home-building process may get pushed to the right, but the lack of communication was downright awful. The lack of communication and misguidings by Lennar was ...

Lennar - The house itself is great but the buying experience was difficult.

  • Joel S.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 31, 2021
  • Royse City, TX

The house itself is great but the buying experience was difficult. There was a 1 month delay in closing and when I requested to change lenders (more than 1 month before the new close date) I was denied and told I would lose the house if I changed lenders. This made the process more difficult because Lennar Mortgage was the absolute worst part of my buying experience.

Lennar responded:
Hi Joel, thank you for sharing your review. We are sorry to hear about the multiple issues you faced during the buying and closing processes of your new home.

Repairs post closing

Repairs that needed to be completed prior to the "needed" review for the sales department were priority. Details that need correction post that review certainly take a back seat. Vendors do not like accountability

The home build was a long process during COVID and supply constraints. Our projected move in date was moved a few times due to issues with supplies and construction issues. Our sales rep Terrence was fantastic and once they got us our second contruction Project Manager things started to fall into place. We continue to work on issues to be fixed from our move in but Lennar has been really great to work with and responsive to our needs.

We bought the home in March 2021 and have flooring and wall paint issues at many places in the home. We filed work orders and when it's time for work orders to expire, management asked me to re open work orders with new expiry date. We are fine if you want more time but it has been 2 months now nobody is processing work orders. At least give the full 1 year support guys. Wifi is not working above 2nd floors at all. Bathroom Shower rod fell off. Wooden flooring came out. Paint is getting chipped off. Living room washroom door lock is not working. Lights panels on the ceiling coming off. ...
