Lennar Reviews in Charleston, SC

I had a great experience with the Lennar Team. The agents were very knowledgeable, professional and patient. All transactions were done in a timely matter without any complications.

A little unhappy with quality of drywall install and sod could have been layed more evenly.

The project manager and after close the warranty manager for my home have been extremely helpful at resolving any issues. There's a lot of new technology and they've taken the time to walk me through everything and even followed up to make sure everything was still functioning as excpeted.

Would be very thorough with walk through.

Get your own real estate agent, don’t just use the provided Lennar agent. Our agent was able to ask questions and provide information that we never would have thought of. Lennar is like any big business, they’re looking out for themselves. The Lennar agent didn’t even come to our closing. We l’ve had plumbing issues due to a pipe that was damaged prior to our purchase and 2 out of 3 of Lennar’s warranty people haven’t all been great to work with. It just depends on who you get. The houses are nice, as is our neighborhood, but you need to make sure your stay on top of things.

Generally good. There was a lot of attention leading up to the purchase but after that not so much. The workmanship and attention to detail is ok. The team could do better with quality control. Lots of little details missed. For instance there are pencil marks on nearly every corner and on the floor where trim work meets. A drawer front in the kitchen was damaged and JD said he would replace it- that has been nearly 2 months ago, shower glass has flaws that should have been pickup by the build team and replaced. Again I feel it has been all about getting the house closed.

Listen, Lennar gets a lot of crap, but honestly it just is what it is. They crank out homes and source the most affordable materials they can within code for your State, County, City and then they offer you a home at some of the best price per square foot you’re going to find. When you pay bottom dollar for your home, you can’t expect everything to be top dollar quality. You just have to accept what you’re buying when you buy it and do everything you can to make sure your home is inspected a couple of times within your 12 month warranty. I’ve bought two Lennar homes and haven’t regretted either purchase. Customer service has been kind to me, because I’ve been kind to them. Everything I’ve addressed with Lennar has been taken seriously and they’ve come out to look at the issues promptly. Hope this helps. ... More

Everything started off great then as it got closer to our home being finish built. No one communicated issues to us and little things that needed to be done were never finished. Got a lot of fast talk but no completion.

At our pre closing walk thru, we met with the construction manager and listed a number of things that needed attention. On the day of closing, we were told our construction manger had quit and a new man was on the job. There was a pile of debris still in the driveway and the yard was full of trash. The punch list hadn't been completed or addressed properly. By the time we arrived with the movers, the debris in the driveway was gone but the yard was still a mess. Numerous things in the house have yet to be completed. Based on this experience with Lennar, I wouldn't recommend this builder to anyone looking for a house to buy. ... More

We have had issues. Our foundation has sink spots so they are having to pull up our floor and pour concrete. Drywall work is also done poorly. I haven’t been too happy with how poorly some of the work was done. We had our own inspection done and are still waiting on some of the items to be fixed. We closed late Feb.

LENNAR is very responsive during whole process

They should get on the level of Dragas.

We have asked multiple times for help fixing our yard and have been ignored constantly. When we closed on our home we were told that if our yard needed to be re-sodded then they would take care of it since it was January when they laid it initially. Since then, we have asked for help and have not heard from anyone. They told my husband that the task was “too labor intensive” for them to do, so my husband ripped out the old sod himself to help speed up the process. When he did this he found concrete, drywall, metal stakes and so much more underneath our sod preventing it from growing that was carelessly left by the builders. Now we are asking for new sod to be laid and can’t seem to get help from anyone. ... More

I’ve been in my home three months now and I am identifying many craftsmanship issues. The homes are produced quickly so quality is lacking.

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

Overall, it was an OK. Experience would’ve liked to a couple of more home choices and to have a screened in patio, which I see they are doing on all the homes that they are building now and the ones that were previously built. I talked to several people, and they all have screened only a couple had to put them in themselves And the street specially in South Carolina with all the bugs

Purchased our brand new Lennar home 2 months ago. Our new home is beautiful & exactly what we were hoping for until….. After being in the home for a week we noticed the A/C was having issues keeping The house cool. After several warranty calls/visits the issue is still not resolved. Hoping we will come to some kind of resolution soon.

We love our home, but Lennar could improve on resolving issues in a timely manner.

My lamps shake and rumble loudly when my wife walks in the master bedroom horrible built no firewall in the floors to keep noise quiet

After your moved in and any issues you have makes it very very difficult to schedule time with contractors

Don’t get me wrong I love my community, and waverly home. The problems are the garage door is not sealed on one side, and the cement outside the garage door is uneven and slanted towards the garage so when it rains the water pools inside the garage. The curbing inside the garage is incomplete on one side. Curbing for 3 feet on one side then crumbles off. The tile outside the master shower door as well slants towards the shower, so when you take a shower the water pools outside the shower door. Outside the hose spigot housing gaps open at the top. I have been in my house for 1 month and these are the thing I have found SO FAR ... More

While I like my home, there are several things that would make me not do it again. The inflexibility of when walk-throughs were scheduled was awful. No respect for the fact people work and are out of state. The house generally a nice house but the carpet used is cheap. I have terrible visible seems in every room. The bathroom vanity’s have no storage whatsoever. I would think with a house at this price point you it would be better, especially in the master. The area we have to get our mail is awful. Due to it being near so much construction, you can not go during the day or early evening. You must go after 7:30-8 so it isn’t blocked my construction folks. There is no light. It is very scary. For awhile I had to climb over the plastic barriers that were up. I find it unacceptable that I can not get to mail during the day or whenever I choose. So if I had it to do over again, I would not!! ... More

Andy, our sales person, was great. We felt at ease with him during this purchase. We were disappointed when he was moved to another neighborhood because we felt we'd be out of sight and out of mind when it came to questions during the build. Andy still communicated with us regularly and advocated for us , even remotely. Unfortunately the person responsible for our build wasn't as good. He answered our requests and questions with answers he was unable or unauthorized to do. If we asked "can you do this...?" in our house, he'd say yes, then it wouldn't happen. When we continued to ask for updates he stopped answering texts, emails and phone calls. We learned later that he could not deliver on those promises. He's evidently no longer with Lennar. There are some significant quality of worksmanship issues. Drywall is nowhere near smooth, screws were showing in drywall (not "pops" - screwheads were visible), paint was not good enough- it looked like the paint was watered down in some places where the drywall was still visible. It was mostly just the trim and finish that should have been much better. All of the functions work fine. No electrical, plumbing, or structural issues. ... More

Our project manager was great to work with and very helpful since we were moving in from out of state. The warranty team has been a challenge to work with. They are very dissmissive and will not answer your questions directly.

Builder in a hurry to get property closed but no rush to fix issues with home.
