Lennar Reviews

The property that was presented to us at the NHO include what is now call common area.

Expect a long process. On the final inspection, take note of everything so the builder can fix it

We were able to get all the upgrades that we wanted in our home but we were disappointed with the size of the lot and the “lot upgrade fee” we were told that we would be facing our neighbors backyard so it would be from back yard to backyard but when the house went up half of my yard is covered by their home, their windows look right in to our yard and upstairs we are almost face to face. A lot of the things on the inside were not put on right, the cupboards doors keep getting loose, the lights keep loosening from the ceiling, there are “settling cracks” on the wall. The paint they use for the homes is the cheapest paint. We are 6 months in and there are dark spots all over the wall from where people or things touch because the paint is cheap Matte paint. The stair rails are painted with cheap white paint and already having grease marks on them, my carpet is coming off the stairs. They only had a few options for model of what fit in to the lot, if you look at all the homes that have the “same model” no home is the same, there is no consistency. I had to ask for a balcony light that was suppose the be added before we moved in as well as garage lights. They did fix most of this and they do a walk through at 1 month, 6 month and a year so I’m planning to show them all of the effects. Other wise it’s a good home. We are happy with our purchase, great neighborhood, they did make great use of the space. ... More

We love our Lennar home and our little neighborhood. Responsiveness on warranty work is a real problem. They are slow to respond and I have had to contact them multiple times on the same issues. I was also told that some of the things that were faulty was built to Lennar standards, which I find hard to believe.

This is our first new home buying experience and it was smooth and pleasant mainly because of Rob our builder. He held our hands and guided us through the whole experience. I think if he weren’t involved it probably wouldn’t have been nearly as pleasurable and fun. He is still instrumental in getting any of the warranty repairs taken care of.

We were very happy with our experience with Lennar until it came time to close on our home. There were several things not completed but we were told that as long as the house was structurally sound we needed to close even though we wished to wait till everything was done. Once we closed it was almost impossible to get them to come back and fix things even though we were told these would all be taken care of right away. We were continually given dates and times that trades would be coming to work on things, paint, cupboards, carpet, tile, windows, only to have them not show up or bother to call to say they would not be coming. I should also note that often when trades came they did an awful job and repeat visits were needed to resolve the issues. We literally had to texted our customer service rep every day in order to get the things done that needed to be. We also contacted a supervisor who promised to come see our issues and get them resolved as soon as possible. This supervisor never showed up and we were never able to get in touch with him again. It has taken almost six months to get the majority of our issues completed and we still have minor little things that still require adjusting. This is our third new house build and we have never had issues like this before. We love our home but we would not recommend working with Lennar until they can work on their lack of follow through and customer service. Getting a new home is suppose to be a fun and joyful experience but when you move into a brand new unfinished home that you need to fight with the builder to get completed it becomes very stressful and anything but joyful. ...

In general the home seems to be well-built, and Lennar was responsive with issues our inspector found prior to closing. The house seems to be well insulated and reasonably efficient. The garages are deceivingly small and are not very wide or will allow a full-sized truck to be parked inside (too short). The driveways are also very narrow at around 12' wide - several folks have had contractors widen their driveways after purchase. There are minor workmanship issues around the house such as walls that aren't square, trim that isn't square, troweled joints in the sidewalks that aren't square, etc. The base Whirlpool range that comes with homes has a strange grate pattern and pots are not stable when stirring contents inside. The base double ovens seem to work well. The dishwasher had an issue with the gasket but we fixed that ourselves. One of our toilets is leaking at the base, however the rest of the plumbing seems to be OK so far. The quartz counters and subway tile backspalsh in the kitchen is nice, as are the finishes in the master bathroom. ... More

Have an inspection done before Lennar 1 year warranty is up. Lots of things to have corrected.

i hate it i am unhappy rude people unhelpful broken stuff in a brand new home cant wait till i sell

There is no follow up for punch list etc.

Repairs not taken care of as promised

unfortunately not all the holes needed to hang the hurricane shutters were not drilled. wirering for "smart house" didn't match what AT&T require wirering for microwave oven was not connected concrete mix used in garage and front porch crumbles easily

Wish they have more transparency in the process of buying and selling and working with their associates is not easy.

Great experience

We’re very good to give updates on the progress when being built

One level living is the best plan ever! Tall ceilings add to the feeling of a larger home. Everything you need us accessible but not crowded. Only downsides: wish we had an outdoor patio space and a longer driveway.

We couldn’t have chosen a better home! We got so much more than we were expecting and could recommend a Lennar to everyone as anyone!

The Quality of the painting leaves a lot to be desired and the workmanship is extremely poor. Aside from that we have that some things we have we were told if we did not see it before closing then there is nothing that can be done. We were trying to cooperate and not keep calling so we are stuck on that one. Overall we are satisfied though there are other issues we want to discuss.

The whole process was pretty simple. Some workmanship issues with some common sense items being overlooked.

We have been in our new home for nearly six months now. Vincent is our customer care representative and he has been fantastic to work with on warranty issues. So thankful for him!

Very professional hands on quality customer service. I see why from experience that Lennar is rated #1.

We love the house itself. We were disappointed that Lennar only installed 1 outside hose spigot in the middle of the enclosed patio and also 1 "inside" of the garage. Both are difficult to use. We had to spend a lot of money to trench the side yard to install water to the back yard. The grading in the back was terrible and we, again, had to pay quite a bit to grade it before landscaping. Lots of small things were wrong and at first the response to fix them were quick, and now we just wait and wait until someone corrects other issues. There were problems in front parkway where water lines burst twice. The workers ripped out all the plants and as of yet have not replaced them. We've asked several times to have that taken care of, but no help there. Our air conditioner slipped out of housing in attic because it wasn't fastened correctly and had to be reattached, then the repair man noted that a lot of the ducts were not even sealed and he taped those for us. We have had several damaged windows and some have been replaced. Now have noticed a cut in the slider door. Also plaster is cracking around family room window and no response yet. Seems like a lot of small problems considering the amount of money charged for this home. We are a bit disappointed with overall quality. ... More

Lennar doesn’t seem to care that my repairs were not to my satisfaction. Also, was promised a new furnace filter and never received it.

Paul from Lennar is the best. If you have a issue he's right on it.

Could’ve provided more information about land slopes due to drainage prior to construction.
