Lennar Reviews

I bought my Lennar home just a few months ago and I am so far impressed with the quality and the value.It’s not a custom home but you would not know it .The builder did a good job of pointing out or finding cosmetic imperfections that i didn’t even spot and correcting them . The efficiency has been great with power bills for my 2200 sq foot home bring only about $.20.00 more s month than my 800 so foot condo I moved from . Eagle home mortgage ,their lender ,was good and easy to work with compared to lenders I have had in the past . I had an issue with my garage door that was corrected quickly. Other than that I have had no other problems. The home automation features are a great convenience and they sent out a tech to hook all that up and show me how to access all the features. All in all a good experience with Lennar especially for the price paid . ... More

Throughout the construction the quality of the work perform by the different subcontractors and the cheap material selection was obvious. The price paid for the house is not reflected in the quality of the different components of the house (Kitchen, Doors, floors, etc.) Lennar has a very good marketing department and with the story of being an Alexa ready house gives the impression that the quality is top notch then you come to realize that it is not the case. I do not recommend buying a Lennar home, unfortunately it is too late for me.

Everyone is great and takes care of issues for us.

I was in the process of looking into my first house for last 3 years, and finally Lennar had the one that was my first Home.

Disappointed in a few areas that you shouldn’t have to deal with in a new home. Still working to get many things fixed. Overall we love the home just not to thrilled about some of the issues we still have to fix on a brand new home.

Very nice home for the money.

We purchased a new build Lennar home. We loved the layout of the house and the community is just what we were looking for. So, put up with the months of construction delays (not all of Lennar's fault) which forced us to live in a campground for 3 months. We moved into a very dirty house, It was not cleaned well after construction. Dust on all the walls, showers, counters and cabinets. The floor tile was not cleaned either. (paint and left over grout everywhere) So, our first few days in our brand new home was spent cleaning. We then started noticing several poor construction issues. Door frames not installed correctly and the floor tile is a disaster. The hot water to then kitchen sink does not work properly. Base boards defective. Poor job done by painters. Driveway looks terrible. Tons of drywall issues. We have had three different customer care reps already in the past 4 months. They do stay in communication with us and try to have all the issues corrected. I feel they are just as frustrated as we are. Unfortunately. we have had to spend most of our days off at home waiting for repairs to be done. We are still fighting with Lennar and the flooring company on fixing the tile which is painful to walk on. The carpet was laid on top of construction debris, Not going to worry about that since we plan on installing upgraded carpet soon. It is just upsetting that we found a house we really liked after two years of looking and we walk into one problem after another. If I could have a do over, I would look for a different builder. But we don't have that option and will have to live with what we got. ... More

Can't say enough about how great the Lennar process was for me. Everyone was great to work with from start to finish. This was my first home buying experience and I was dreading it to start because I've heard nothing good about it from others. Mine was completely different! No pressure and once I decided to purchase it was smooth sailing with the sales reps, to my mortgage rep (works directly with Lennar builders), to my orientations with the construction management team. A++++++ for service and bang for my $'s!

finishing touches, like trim work, garage, doors very poor.

Within the first week my microwave broke and had to be fixed. The stove drawer is very flimsy and comes off track. Within 4 months 2 door knobs came apart and the screw to hold it together is missing. You can see ripples in the vinyl flooring between the rafters of the flooring. It's like only the bare minimum was done by building code. The cement work outside the patio door is so rough, you need shoes to walk on it. one of my windows has missing film. It was pointed out at the 2 week walk through and I haven't heard anything. I thought we were supposed to get a 2 month walk through, but no one ever contacted us. We've been in the house for over 4 months ... More

Lower prices

make sure you get everything in writing

Very good company

Great location and great people.

We asked for a previously offered counter top, Granite, in our master bath. You would have thought we requested the holy grail. they acted like they "might" be able to do it during the 9 months build time but ultimately didn't get it done. I have expressed my disappointment over this issue multiple times with Lennar.......no response or follow up, they don't care. Love the home, don't like the service.

It was a very satisfying experience working with Lennar in the building and purchase of my home.

We've had nothing but problems since the day of closing when we walked in for final review and none of the issues had been corrected. I could give a whole list of issues and problems that almost 5 months in we are still trying to get taken care of. Seems like every time we get one resolved, another issue shows up. I wouldn't recommend them.

Awesome job Ray!

Several open issues during and after construction. Materials and fixtures used are of poor quality. Landscaping is a joke. All contractors completing warranty work should be closely supervised for a favorable outcome. They love to cut corners and just get by. The reason it wasn't done right the first time was due to lack of supervision and quality control. Insulation is falling out of the attic and into our guest room closet through the light fixture every time the closet door is opened or closed. Patio door is crooked and none of the appliances were level. The garage door was improperly installed and had to be redone. Interior paint job leaves a lot to be desired. ... More

Very poor and shoddy work. They forgot to add gas line in patio and did that the day of closing in a haphazard manner and not the way it was in the agreed plan. The dug the backyard and were not willing to reimburse anything. The fans started making noise the week after and they are not willing to fix or replace them. Their whole customer service is a charade and they try not to fix anything. When I refuse to sign off on a ticket I raised for Fan issue, they closed the ticket on their end saying the issue is fixed without any explanation. I was planning to recommend a couple of friends to buy houses near me home but with this experience I have refrained as I do not want to be blamed for such horrible experience. ... More

The house was sloppily put together and there were a lot of issues that took months to fix after I moved in. I had to take too many days off work to address all the issues. Grout work was sloppy, there were painting issues and issues with my ceiling. The garage cement had too many holes and looks poorly constructed. The house was also never cleaned and there was dirt all over when I moved in.

Once the agreement was signed it has been nothing but a hassle with Lennar. Homes are delivered with a “it’s good enough” standard. Communication is close to nonexistent and it’s a tough and long process to get them to do anything. I guess they are hoping people would give up and deal with things. Lennar is all about the quick turnover and sales. Not quality and customer service. Won’t recommend or buy a Lennar home ever again.

I do like the design of my home and the neighborhood but the workmanship was poor. I believe this was the construction was unsupervised and many things were wrong. Some of the problems were: the painting quality was poor, the tile work was not done properly, the front door was hung improperly, the kitchen cabinets were damaged, the sliding glass doors were damaged, the workman leave trash all over. I must say the builder is trying to fix things but it is certainly a hassle.

My biggest gripe so far is the quality of the paint and surface finishes both inside and out. The interior paint is a powder or chalk type paint, which CANNOT be cleaned. If your kids touch the walls, prepare to repaint. The drywall texturing was cheaply done and has many flaws and clumps in the material, which chip and flake off. I will say that Lennar was honest about this and warned me that they really do slap it together and cut costs on paint and finish. While i dont dispute the overall value and service, i would respect them more if they used better paint in a family home.

I love my house, the workmanship is great but I am very disappointed that the swimming pool will not be installed until the summer or 2021 when I was told it would be built by 2020. Management has not reached out to make accommodations for us to perhaps utilize nearby facilities until the pool is place. Also there has been a recent decrease in the value of townhomes in Grand Bees which is very disconcerting.
