Lennar Reviews

The buying process was okay, the only person that was incredibly responsive was the sales agent, and he had already secured the sale. Construction Manager changed 3 times in less that 4 months, and quite a few items we asked weren’t done. It could have certainly been worse but absolutely could have been better.

The home is very well built And the included automation is amazing like the ring and integrated wiring for WiFi where there are no dead spots. There are just a few small things that are becoming noticeable like the garage door not closing all the way and the door knobs being loose. Nothing major. Lennar is very responsive and ensures to get things corrected very quickly. Overall I am very happy with my lennar home.

We moved May 31, 2019, and have been very pleased with the home. The soundproofing is amazing and quality is great. A lot of value for the price. A deciding factor was the ability to install an elevator, and the kitchen is awesome! The whole team was a delight to work with. Very professional and friendly. Always willing to answer questions and help!!

Make sure you really check out the home before you buy, when we moved in the house was a mess, painting and a few carpentry items were done very sloppy. Paint on the floor every where.

Was a Licensed Realtor in Texas for 14+ years, and moved to retire in Fla. Lennar offers a lot for the Money. We have been in our home for six months, and have had a few issues to coordinate with Builder. Cedric_Customer Service Mgr., and Michael-Builder answered and remedied each issue promptly. Their Customer service and commitment to solving issues goes beyond the minimum. Valuable representatives of their company. We are truly grateful. Lennar delivers.

When we first bought our home in May of 2019, we were told we did not need flood insurance because the area wasn’t a flood zone area, fast forward to Sep 2019 with tropical storm imelda, we were under water! So many of our neighbors lost their homes, we had to be rescued because water was rising, my brand new 2019 vehicle got flooded 2 weeks after buying it, just such an emotional event to go through, and the saddest part is all my neighbors were told the same thing about flood insurance. The materials of the house weren’t all that, our plants died a week after we moved in, our grass too, the foundation of the backyard is all messed up and bumpy, I feel like we didn’t get our money’s worth. ...

Took 6 months to get a refund ....overall a bad experience

5 different managers..100 calls before response...then weeks before something is complete

Steve our sales person communicated well to make the purchase enjoyable. Moved in on time as promised . Homeowner orientation with dru and Danny and Amazon went well. We love the layout of our new home and the neighbors on the block. Excellent community layout and amenities. Had some minor issues with the house but Igor has taken care of them. His communication and follow up is outstanding. We are very pleased with our purchase decision and recommend these homes for over 55 active adults.

The overall experience was great. The staff was very professional and made the entire home buying process a breeze.

Overall very happy with our home and we are enjoying it.

Since the middle of August when Ernie was transferred I have been trying to get repairs handled. Most have been request multiple times. I was advised Ron was the new contract and was advised by him the middle of September he stated he had 10 communities to deal with but as of today still have not been contacted to take care of the issues. He stated he would take care of the issues but when. I am not happy. I was required to act timely but apparently the same rules don’t apply. I have a list of about 12 plus items. I feel I was more than generous with my rating.

The area to live in is great. Very near a brand new Publix Market & shops, many golf courses within 5 miles. The houses are very well built and priced correctly for the area.

Lawn Contractor did horrible on grass installation. To many gaps in sod when installed and not enough topsoil to allow grass and shrubs to grow properly. Have dead spots and lots of weeds. Almost break ankle each time I mow. Its like mowing a corn field. Inside finish paint peels to easily. Appears to not bond to prime coat. Even after walk through with warranty manager paint still chipping and peeling. Caulking at doors and floor have already separated in several locations. It appears the floor tile installers didn't remove adhesive in several locations. It becomes apparent after use and cleaning. Touch up painting left paint drops on floor? Did they drop clothes? Had to tighten all door knobs and toilet paper holders. Towel holders were placed above electric outlets in bathrooms. Not good locations. Noticed tile has cracked going into first bedroom. ... More

The sellers dont work

Great home for the price. Larry with Eagle Mortgage was outstanding, as was the onsite customer service staff. The staff that works with you to correct any issues during the walk through are awful. My suggestion is make all flaws found during walk through are corrected before you pay, otherwise good luck getting things corrected. The lawn and landscaping are terrible unless you like dead grass and lots of weeds. After 6 months of living there, I finally gave up hope on getting things corrected, so I did them myself. I think it would be good customer service to at least check in with the new homeowners once it awhile. ... More

After looking as so many home builders from DR.Horton , Pulte , Meritage ,GLHomes and a few others we decided to go with Lennar , Why? Because Lennar builds the best homes and gives you the most incentives that any other builder can offer . Lennar staff is very friendly and always willing to help you and answer all your questions and concerns . We had the pleasure to meet and deal with Vanessa at the Enclave , Meadow Point IV and afternoon she showed us the house we knew that it will be our home . Thank you Vanessa and Lennar for making us the proud and happy owners of our new home in Wesley Chapel . Lennar Homes are highly recommended . ... More

I would recommend to lenar to any that is looking to buy

I closed on my house in May of 2019, and I have had issues with the workmanship of the building. The punch list that was submitted isn't even half done and it is now November 21 2019. Be aware of the lack of urgency once you close.

My wife and I are enjoying our new home. After 6 months of living in it there are a number of things that could have been done better during the construction phase to lower the amount of repair tickets we have opened. Installing damaged trim for example could have been noticed up front. Door frames not square for another. Sometimes doing it right the first time lowers your overall expenses. The service after the fact by our customer service rep has been fantastic. The energy efficiency of the home through the hot summer months was better than expected. I would consider building another Lennar Home. I would have caught the issues during the construction phase and addressed them at that time, but we were 1000 miles away. Overall satisfied with our purchase. ... More

We were happy to find a home that fit our needs - that gave us the space and aesthetics we wanted in an area that we are so happy with. I would be lying if I said we weren't worried going in to this transaction as Lennar has MANY negative reviews scattered about the internet. From sale to close, and beyond, I can summarize our interactions, both good and bad, as mediocre. This is largely because, I feel, there is a lack of ownership across the experience. Lennar personnel are quicker to pass the responsibility on to another person than to find a solution themselves. I'm not sure if this because there is a lack of a culture of ownership or because no one is empowered to do the right thing, but this theme is prevalent throughout. There were glimmer's of stellar service and I commended each of those individuals, but not enough of them to raise our rating of our experience with Lennar. The Good: The Customer Service Manager was quite helpful and knowledgeable and came out promptly to resolve an issue with the dishwasher...unfortunately, that was the last time he was this helpful. Our home is beautiful and we are happy here. Luckily, we were spared some of the horror stories other Lennar homeowners or even some of our neighbors have. The Bad: Our walkthrough date was "forgotten" about and they were unprepared when we arrived, the home was not completed upon closing, options and upgrades available for the home were VERY limited and unnecessarily stringent, workmanship was occasionally sloppy (who is doing quality control?), the representative of walkthrough is a professional liar who spent an hour misinforming us and giving empty promises. Painters were no-call/no-show on several occasions, Lennar sold a large percentage of our neighborhood to Chinese investors that rented the homes out. As a result, we have teenagers living 6-8 to a home and throwing parties, instead of having a strong and safe sense of security with actual homeowners (there are only three homeowners on our street). Materials are cheap and nothing feels well thought out. Our kitchen and laundry room were designed/built around the provided appliances (who does that?) To summarize, mediocre is the best word to describe our experience. My growing family is happy in our home and we've not had any huge issues that remain unresolved yet. But, as was explained to us several times by sales staff during the purchase, "Lennar is numbers focused," this is very clear. Seemingly for Lennar, numbers > people. ... More

Just weeks after moving in all nine upper kitchen cabinets came loose from wall and exploded when they hit the floor.....glass flew to every corner of lower level. All dishes shattered!!! Small grandkids had just finished making breakfast on counter below cabinets and would have been seriously insured or worse! Lennar found that all cabinets were screwed into wallboard/paper only!

The process of buying a house in itself is scary. So you think that buying a newly built home would be better. Wrong. Lennar used the cheapest materials, multiple issues ready. And later we get blamed for the issues so they dont have to fix it. If i could go back I would’ve approached this whole situation very differently, been more assertive with Lennar, and not have accepted things to be “fixed after move in”. What a disappointment. A few months in and already have a list of repairs that I have to pay for. Including changing the new floor which was done terribly but the company thinks they did it all right and Lennar sides with them. Shingles keep flying off. When you have a whole community talking how bad of a job they did, you realize the problem is not you but Lennar itself. ... More

Alyssa was awesome and always kept us in the loop with what was going on. In terms of workmanship we have already replaced a lot of things in the house due to being or cheaper quality when we bought it but overall was a good experience.

I bought to houses with Lennar I still got damage in both.the do not fixed and managers and employees treat people like garbage.
