I didn’t not know we bought a lemon house…

Worst experience ever, i would leave any stars if it was possible

Terrible is all I can say. Being lied to is another reason not to buy a new home from Lennar.

Let me just start out by saying this is the absolute worst experience I have ever had with a business. In late March 2024 we found out we may have to sell our home in Florida and move to middle Tennessee for work. We found a realtor who we love and started chatting about must haves around March 25th, lots of space, at least 2 additional rooms, open concept, we wanted a covered back patio, and option to install a privacy fence. The realtor and I came across Lennar homes, and they were building in a new location called Coles Ferry Village. Our realtor reached out to the selling agent Rocky so we can start inquiring about the homes and the process - this is where the nightmare begins. We were able to get a showing of a model with a floorplan that we ended up really liking. We found out that we were indeed moving and only had 3.5 weeks before we had to report to work on April 28th. At this time, we had gone over all the documents with the selling agent we confirmed a cover patio was going to be installed, and we again confirmed the fence was not going to be an issue. We were assured everything was perfect and we had nothing to worry about. About a week later after the first week of April we get a call and are told just kidding the house and plot you have picked was not submitted to have a covered patio - there is no way for us to add one since the permits are already approved through the county. We should have walked then but we didn't. We decided ok well maybe we can negotiate the sale of the house and put the covered patio in ourselves, we renegotiated numbers and came to an agreement, and we were still assured the fence wasn't going to be a problem. We assume everything is fine from this point on. When we signed documents with the selling agent we were give a tentative closing date of June 6th, pretty early on that date was pushed back to June 18th. Meanwhile we were in corporate housing for 30 days and had 30 days of storage paid for by our company. We moved into corporate housing on April 28 - May 28. We were only going to need a few days in between corporate housing and closing on our house. We worked closely with our company, and we were advised we can extend your corporate housing as long as we have enough notice. I said we should be good we will get our 30-day notice on the 18th but I am going to reach out and try and get a head start, I reached out to the selling agent on May 10th. ... More

They used cheap material in the house and does not match with the price. Also has small pool for big community and it’s not kids friendly pool.

From the start of our home-buying experience to the end, we have had issue after issue - from trying to work with Lennar mortgage to the sales office, we have had to continually push *upper management* for a response. Although our home was move-in ready when we started the process, our closing date was delayed three times without so much as an apology - there has been absolutely no transparency through the process. Lennar emailed us early on saying to ensure we reply quickly to emails or requests, however, Lennar is excruciatingly slow in getting anything done. If you’re willing to be patient more than anyone should have to be, I guess our Lennar home worked out in the end, but I would go with ANY other builder in the future. Our realtor says she will never recommend buying through Lennar after this experience. ... More

Extremely poor HOA, you are selling 3 bed homes and restricting 2 cars per home, no one mentioned these during selling time and now the selling agent Ashley doesn't even bother to respond, never going to buy from Lennar ever. We spent close to $1.5 M on properties at the community and that's the service we get Extremely disappointed and poor service

I love our new home but when it comes to Lennar taking care of simple issues that were clearly caused by them don’t expect much after closing. McKenna who is the Lennar employee responsible for processing the warranty repair’s is rude and unprofessional. For example she disagreed with an issue stating that it’s cosmetic and after speaking to her on the phone she AGREED TO COME OUT AND LOOK AT IT IN PERSON BUT STATED SHE WAS STILL GOING TO DENY IT even before seeing it in person. McKenna is well known throughout the neighborhood as being rude when dealing with her. I caution anyone who is going to buy a Lennar home in the Troutman area in to compare reviews to other builders in the area. I will also note that Lennar mortgage was in fact easy and a positive experience. Side note I spoke to neighbors who bought DR Horton homes in the same neighborhood and they have had a wonderful experience so far from buying to the warranty related issues. ... More

Poor from the moment we closed So many issues. Such poor finishing. Such a slow unprofessional service getting the house as it should have been. Even untidy, broken tiles everywhere, pool green etc etc Couldn’t have been worse

Bad buying experience with Lennar

Everything was ok until we signed the paperwork and then all the all the Promises we were told would be fixed or resolved we are still waiting to be fix! We never got our box of tile we were told would be in our garage and that our lawn to be fixed! We still don’t have grass in our yard after living here two months! I will never buy another house from Lennar and I will be telling everyone about the poor customer service and empty promises we were told would be handled!!

When I first came to look at a home. My realtor told me the house was white and it ended up being purple during my walk through. Also workers used my bathroom and left me a present and the house was not cleaned when given to me. Worst experience ever.

I cannot express how i feel about my experience because @Trust Builder and @lennar block my experience. Don't understand why you ask for my experience if i cannot express myself, I suppose you want only good rating are the ones you make public,

The amount of cosmetic defects and the amount of time it has taken to fix these issue has been the worst experience of my house buying experience. We were rushed through the final walk through a lot of things were missed and the whole process just felt rushed! From the financial stand point all the way through closing. Miscommunication with the entire staff from sales to closing escrow agents. Worse experience ever. Never again will I get a Lennar home

Too many different people involved in the process and a lack of accountability. Move in items were not completed timely and still finding issues.

I cannot stress this enough: stay as far away from Lennar as possible. My experience with them has been an absolute nightmare. From the very beginning, they were unprofessional and unreliable. Deadlines were consistently missed, communication was terrible, and the quality of the work was horrendous. The house they built for me is riddled with issues—poor craftsmanship, cheap materials, and countless problems that should have been caught during construction. It's clear that they cut corners wherever they could, and now I'm left with a house that needs constant repairs. The customer service is non-existent. Every time I tried to raise concerns, I was met with excuses, delays, or outright ignored. It's clear that once they have your money, they couldn't care less about the quality of their work or your satisfaction. If you're thinking about building a home, do yourself a favor and avoid Lennar at all costs. You'll save yourself a lot of time, money, and headaches by going with a more reputable builder. ... More

The staff are not that good. Very bad material quality considering that the price of the house is almost half a million dollars Issues started to appear after just one week of closing. Their warranty are scam. It doesn't cover the roof the fence the irrigation system. Overall experience BAD

This has got to be the best team at getting you in and settled. Everyone is happy and willing to help, that is until they give you your house keys. That’s when Lennar shines!

The most frustrating home buying process I’ve experienced. The mortgage team continuously sent documents for signature with errors, and when pointed out repeated said to just sign them as they were only for underwriting and we’d just be signing them again later with different info. Very uncomfortable process. I was still resigning corrected papers a month after closing that I had pointed out previously and told to not worry. They also rarely responded to questions without multiple attempts for info, but were always in a hurry to have documents returned immediately regardless of the time of time they were sent to us. The sales liaison was also less than helpful and was somewhat misleading in the process. We bought while out of state, and were sold the promise of a wonderful community center and amenities that our somewhat high HOA payments would be going towards. At every chance when we asked about the status of the amenities, we were ignored. Once in the area we discovered they had not started the actual plans or construction for this yet. Not until closing day did we get the response that the amenity center would not be ready for at least another year. This is a large selling feature for most new developments in the area, and this turns out to be the only community putting it as a last priority. There are almost 100 houses already finished as well and no ground even broken for the center. This makes the neighborhood feel even more like just living in a construction zone rather than a new community. It’s also hard then to understand what our HOA fees are actually paying for? They do not come off as building a community at all. Most importantly, the worst part has been dealing with the construction team. The quality of care for our new home is very substandard with zero accountability. They did not ensure having utilities on for the home for a 3rd party inspection, and they blamed the inspector despite our prior and detailed coordination (and the inspector checking in with the office), so we were not able to check any electrical or HVAC items in the house. During the orientation walk thru we went through more than 3 rolls of blue tape due to poor craftsmanship throughout the home, and a painter just kept walking around removing it behind us until we noticed and stopped them. Eventually we moved in with multiple electrical issues present, cracked window frame, faulty lights, paint on carpets, unfinished work, uncorrected cosmetic blue tape items throughout the home. And worst of all, the construction team completely abused the use of our home while we were away directly upon closing AND after. On closing day, I entered my home for the first time to find workers sitting in my home eating their lunch. I kicked them out and notified the Construction manager but nothing happened. We travelled out of state right after, and came back to a home that was left unlocked (they had to change the door after we moved in as the one prior was uneven and they didn’t ensure locking the house!), and there was clear evidence workers had been in the home to use the bathroom as well as changed out materials for use in another home (a damaged door was newly installed on a closet where a good one had been and random pieces of window trim were lying around that weren’t there at closing). Again notified the manager, again all apologies, but no change as the very next day the workers continued to plug power tools into our outside outlets for their use. The plumbing ended up clogged as well as a result of workers flushing loads of wipes while using our home as their bathroom when we were gone or before closing. The sod was also laid very poorly with issues found in the irrigation system, with no communication with us or response to our concerns during or after the process. So I fixed the irrigation myself, but am still left with a lawn that was laid with large patches of holes throughout. If I don’t have to involve them in fixing things anymore, I don’t as there’s no trust. There is no oversight over the workers in the community it seems. Only one saving grace is a single customer care rep named Ken who still fights for us to get our issues fixed. He alone seems to keep the team mildly accountable at least for warranty repairs. This all sounds like a lot of complaining, but it’s been a seriously frustrating and overall unacceptable process for what was supposed to be a wonderful new home experience. I can’t recommend enough against Lennar in Brookmill. Hopefully corporate management tracks the mismanagement and waste in this community and changes things. ... More

Gm just left the new home orientation. Items still haven’t been completed from the previous 3 visits. Why am i continually sent to do this walk. When the items aren’t addressed. All of the items are visible on the website as still not completed. Sent from my iPhone On Jun 25, 2024, at 2:10 PM, Rodney is asking about closing, will it be tomorrow at 11am? Thanks! Sincerely, Thanks I called again today the Person that is assigned to my file. Is no longer with the company. They were not sure who was going to be assigned my case. If someone wants to connect and let me know when, where and how etc. That would be helpful. I'm done following up. ... More

Everything to start of has been a nightmare The only quick part of this process is the finance team Quick to take your money Once you get into your make sure you do the walk through with an inspector and agent I thought I could do it myself since I have history in real estate but no as I moved in to my so called “move in” ready home issues after issues kept coming It’s now been over a month and still issues happening to my home From foundation cracking Loose and broken frame inside roof Consistent gas leaks Very dirty home from cabinets being full of dirt due to no sod Caulking issues all over inside and outside Holes on your outside walls and mix of paint used They plant dead sod on your lawn and not even placed correctly Speaking of sod which is grass No sod on your home until you moved in and be ready to deal with the muddy rainy days and having to walk around everything And if you have a dog man it’s a hassle. To cut this long story short Please please please yes Sarah carpenter please the song Please come with your own inspector as that’s the only way stuff will get done at lennar at Navarro ranch ...

-Fence falling from no concrete -Windows leak -Front door leak -Poor exterior prep and painting -Worst of all AC is inadequate for home and gets warm inside home. -second worst of all is lennar warranty is terrible they try everything under the sun to avoid fixing anything. Piece of crap people. DONT BUY anything from lennar -other people in the neighborhood have issues even worse than mine.

The whole experience was stressful and not up to regular standards. I do not recommend anyone to deal with Lennar, Lennar Mortgage or Lennar Warranty nowadays

First poor costumer service ! Second less than a month and fence falling down cheap installation and work Now I have a house on my right side under construction to close from my back yard looks horrible ! I should wait to buy ! Only Mr Bob De Leon has been very attentive ! Thanks Patricia

I would not buy a new home with Lennar again. I paid ~$950K for a house moving in Jun 2024 that vibrates so often during days and nights whenever there is big cars running on the main street, and the shaking becomes very strong (feel like 3-4 degree Earthquakes) whenever there is a train passing by the train track which is a few blocks away from my house. And the trains pass by 3 - 4 times per day, sometimes at late mid night which makes it worse. My family had really bad times lacking of sleep and tried to get used to with the vibration and the shaking. The house also starts showing cracks after 2 months of moving in. I wish I could just return the house to Lennar. Also even it's a gated community, but the wall was built too short and the fence is useless, it could not stop homeless people who camp next to the wall coming into our community to check on our houses at night and try to steal stuffs from the residence homes. The home delivery process was also bad, they tested the washing machine when the manual was still inside, causing it to be shattered all over the place, they didn't even clean it up after my complain and I had to spend 2hrs cleaning up inside the washing machine after moving in. The garage door was also stop working after 2 months of moving in. I would not recommend buying your new home with Lennar builder. ... More
