Is the whole experience with lennar was very disappointed and The worst experience I could imagine. They say buying a home should be one of the most happiest days of your life. I was jerked around so much in disappointment with the whole experience. I will never buy another home from the lennar again and I will tell anyone that asked me to stay away

Headache - Never again

  • Marissa S.

  • October 16, 2024
  • Summerville, SC

The entire process has been a headache purchasing this home. Issues that arose with my inspector were not properly fixed before closing and is still something I am fighting Lennar with. They are quick to respond to issues but then “complete” them in the portal when it truly has not been fixed. I’m spending close to half a million dollars on this home and I’m getting work that is worse than my 250k DR Horton home. The employees are quick to bash DR Horton however none of these simple issues were a problem them - nor was it an issue from DRH getting support to get them fixed. You can ...

It was very stressful. They approved me for a loan. I payed 30% down payment and after that they told me that I am not approved and I needed to pay off my car. That was not the plan in first place. I had to spend all my money before I made this big purchase. I don’t want to see any email from Lennar ever again.

My contact during the build was supposed to be Sam. 99% of the time he couldn't answer my question or sent me elsewhere. I was rushed to close so much that "Move in Ready" was "Move in Mess". Not cleaned, huge number of unacceptable flaws, chipped doors, paint splatter on tile and screen, construction material in pantry and drawers, AC filter was filthy, smoke detector was beeping, ring doorbell was missing. It was awful! No dumpster for garbage, no mail keys, elevator was on the fritz. When I asked about what to do, I was told to put in a ticket to warranty the corrections. Why? Why isn't it ...

Lennar mortgage was misleading during the application process, the home is built with poor quality, items were stolen out of the home after under contract to buy, lennar mortgage closing agent did not provide the original mortgage note or security instrument for my records. They also got an advance on my security instrument for the full maturity amount and are now trying to hide the money they received from the Federal Reserve bank while still charging me monthly payments. Not to mention I closed with Lennar, so explain why Experian says Eagle Mortgage, and Equifax says American Universal ...

Very disappointed with the construction manager and their staff for failing to remove debris before the recent hurricane (Milton) hit the area. It forced me to leave my home for safety after concerns that concrete blocks would become projectiles. I asked repeatedly for this to occur and nothing was done. Even after they responded by telling me they would remove these items. I continued to message the construction manager directly and received no response. They simply didn’t care! I have photos and text messages saved for Lennar corporate, as they should investigate this further. The overall ...

I would’ve most certainly went with another lender if could redo our first home buying experience. Bad experience from start to finish with one positive experience in the middle. We have a Facebook group that’s specifically associated with our new Lennar online community and to be honest within this review, it’s been mostly shared experiences of mentally exhausted new home owners.

Horrible Experience Regardless of Price

  • Darren S.

  • Lutz, FL

Where to start? Immediate leak from upstairs kids bathroom the first time one of them took a shower. Leaked down into the bottom floor soaking insulation. Still waiting five weeks later for it to be fully fixed so my daughter can have her on room back, so we don’t have large holes in her wall and the downstairs ceiling. Whoever put in the grass cared nothing about people safely mowing their lawns. The first time I mowed (after Lennar didn’t for three weeks), I took chunks out of the blades in the lawnmower because large chunks of cement and thick gauge wire were left in the yard. Related ...

We are beyond sad for agreeing to go ahead with a Lennar home. Feels like we got a lemon though it was a "brand new home". Almost nothing working, plumbing is substandard with leaks all over the place. Electric quality is so crappy that they switched the wiring. Just crazy, never heard of anything like this. Though the cake as it were must be taken by the sales team - pushy and lies are their only two tools.

While the community is attractive, the builder takes 1000% of the enjoyment of owning a new home away from the buyer. From omitted items which are in the contract, to shoddy construction, to deceptively low HOA fees, Lennar is the champion of bait and switch.

Every aspect of buying a Lennar home was met with a challenge, and even once moved in, there are still issues and challenges. From initially trying to view the home at an advertised open house where there was actually no open house at all, to dealing with the completely incompetent lender which made mistake after mistake on the paperwork and their communication was awful, to the blue tape walk thru where there was a ton of items that needed to be "fixed" such as paint, grout, cabinet fronts, appliance issues etc, that were only half completed on the final walk thru and so we are still ...

The Lennar team (from sales to finance to post-move in customer service) — everyone was nearly horrible and not worth the money they are paid. I could spend many hours explaining every situation and how bad of an experience this was but to sum it all up. Some of the sales agents are rude and don’t care. The finance team SUCKS and will try to feed you to another company that clearly they will benefit from. The quality team might not actually ensure that important needs are addressed before closing. The builders use VERY cheap, low-end finishing and throw the house together (so expect issues). ...

I was deceived multiple times by various Lennar teams. First the lots were incorrectly classified and assigned incorrect lot though I was 2nd person to have the scheduled appointment. They never disclosed about a drainage easement. During development process again deceived multiple times with wrong promises and the same experience continued post closure.

My family and I had a terrible home buying experience. Our loan officer had a personal matter come up and literally ghosted us. His leadership didn’t pick up the ball or reach out to us on their own. After multiple times of trying to reach our loan officer we finally went above his head and were able to get in contact with someone who was able to help a little. We weren’t told if we were approved for the loan or not until 2 days before closing all while proactively trying to make arrangements and plan as we had to move to the new location from out of town.
