Lennar build them fast, and leave quality out

  • Terence A.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • March 17, 2020
  • Roseville, CA

Sales staff and warranty group are great. However that is backwards, if you have great quality, homes they will sell themselves, and warranty should be the loneliest group if quality is demanded when building. Higher management is not interested in quality, but only production. Slam build, and let warranty deal with the homeowner until they get so frustrated they stop asking for repairs that should have been done right when building.

Going through the initial process to finally closing was super easy and all my questions were answered so I wasn't confused on anything. House is wonderful and other than a few issues that took multiple times to fix from final closing I would recommend Lennar for others looking to buy.

Imagine if Comcast Started Building Houses - Now Imagine it's Even Worse than You're Thinking

Poor customer service, repeated broken items and screw ups on the home. Sales representative quit responding to emails or communications the second the ink dried. Broken bath tubs, sinks that leaked and poor follow through. Made me police the situation the whole way the whole way through to get basic items an inspector said be should be done taken care of. Ridiculously stressful and completely ruined the new home buying experience and our holidays (we moved in right before Thanksgiving). I literally would have went to the trouble to put a sign up in my yard warning people to check their ...

Third Rate home buying experience e in Parkland, FL from Lennar

  • Daniel B.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • March 17, 2020
  • Parkland, FL

Quality of house and whole experience leaves a sour taste. I would suggest that anyone thinking about buying through Lennar, reconsider and look at reviews, as well as look very closely at details. Definitely not a builder that takes pride and address issues in a timely manner, if at all.

So disappointed with all the problems

  • Candace P.

  • Davenport, FL

So disappointed with all the problems we have had. From being threatened with penalties to pay if we did not close when Lennar wanted (house had many defects) didn't even had many doors on interior for over 4 months. Lennar NEVER showing up to perform work orders when scheduled. Took forever to get response for scheduling. So sad our very first brand new home to be soooo disappointed!

Lack of flexibility either keeps prices down or profits up but either way is not buyer friendly.

  • Charles N.

  • Ridgefield, OR

Lennar will not make even tiny customizations. I have a huge bathtub and a small shower and I hit my head on the top door support getting in and out. I would rather have a big shower and small tub. We have to step into the deep tub to open the bathroom window or open the blinds therefore the window and blinds stay closed as not really there. Water lines are split to minimize the feet of tube used and that causes the showers and faucets furthest away from continuous hot water heater to take a long time for water to get hot. Separate lines to each faucet would solve this and a manifold on ...

The way the home is angled on the lot I have no privacy from my next door neighbors. Their back door is facing my back door pretty much. And the corners to close to one another. I can hear my neighbors slamming their door shut every day that’s how close we are. I’m planning on moving and finding something more private. Quality of certain things in the home questionable. Shower drain and kitchen countertops. Very upset about the low grade carpet and padding. I asked to upgrade my carpet and think I even paid extra. But found out I didn’t receive upgraded carpet or padding. So where’s my ...

Love our new house but find a new problem every week. Lennar fixes them all, but very annoying.

We LOVE our new house. Let me start with that. No regrets on buying it. There is a glaring downside though. Every week something else is wrong with the electrical mostly, or occasionally something else. Still would buy again, but they really need to get better at pre move in inspections, and hire competent electricians.

Our House title was to be titled to our Trust. The information was given to the Lennar Salesperson. We learned after our closing, that our house deed was not titled to our Trust. We were told that the Salesperson left his position, abruptly, and left unfinished business. This caused considerable inconvenience and expense on our part.

Poor materials and worse craftsmanship. Not trustworthy. They don’t deliver on their commitments. Their contractors are inefficient and extremely wasteful. I would not recommend Lennar communities.

Lousy materials and quality control

The granite counter in the kitchen appears to be of second quality with chips along the edges and even in the center, it lacks that rich, smooth feel usually found on good quality granite. The kitchen and vanity cabinet doors were not properly adjusting banging into walls and other cabinets. A tremendous amount of drywall debris and dust in brand new duct work being sucked into the air handler in the attic and blown throughout the vents of the home. Cracks in cement driveway going from one side all the way over to the other side, sealed and then painted so as not to be noticed but instead it ...

Great home but customer service/warranty department needs home improvement

Lennar home buying experience was great. Our salesperson, Chris, Construction manager, Kurt, and title team were both very helpful and responsive. They answered all our questions and concerns timely. Lennar makets their homes as "Everything is included" and this can be a little deceiving. We have a smart home and that is great but I would have much rather had all my rooms wired for cable and internet than having an Alexa or Amazon show in my home. Our home only came with the living room and master bedroom wired so we have had to spend extra money out of pocket to have cable and internet ...
