Lennar Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

The agent handling our purchase, Danette, was excellent. She was very responsive and handled our needs very professionally. The house has an excellent floor plan and lot. However, no quality assurance of the work was performed. The house should not have passed occupancy inspection due to no water to the kitchen through the hot water line. A closet door was a single, instead of a double door per the house plan. Cabinet doors were poorly aligned. Guest bath vanity drawers did not close due to improperly placed water line. Garage door did not align with pavement, resulting in a gap. Shrubs were planted poorly, 2 were close to dead when planted. Doorbell did not work. Shower glass did not get installed until 2 weeks after closing. Ground was not leveled prior to installation of sod; lack of completion of sod installation resulted in failure of initial occupancy inspection. Mailbox was not installed until a week after closing; USPS was not aware of address and mail that was forwarded from home was sent back. Had to close with all these items on an "exception list", no money withheld in escrow, We are one week shy of 2 months since closing and only the following corrections were completed: shower glass, hot water to kitchen (2 weeks after closing), and cabinet alignment. Bathroom waterline was corrected, but necessitated cutting a hole in adjoining bedroom; hole filled, waiting on painter (supposed to be here today). All corrections required daily calling of construction managers. There are many other items on the exception list, still awaiting action. Lennar defined the closing date, not the buyer, and without regard to time required to complete the work so that the house was ready for occupancy by the closing date. In fact, the letter from Lennar stated that the buyer should not plan on moving into the house on the date of closing. ... More

Not impressed at all. Leading up to our closing we had nothing but problems that weren't completely address by the time we closed and had to be addressed after moving in. Had a water leak within days of closing which has now caused a mold issue that is taking weeks to even address and our new home being torn apart. Build quality overall for the purchase price is not great in my personal opinion, for example we didn't even get a screen door included with a sliding patio door, cabinets are poor quality, majority of second floor has squeaky loose subfloor, cheap laminate floors and cheap carpet throughout. I would not buy another home from Lennar. ... More

I’m very disappointed in the way they handle homebuyers .

WE BOUGHT THIS HOUSE SIGHT UNSEEN DUE TO LENNARS PAST REPUTATION OF BEING A QUALITY BUILDER, THIS WAS A BAD MISTAKE STILL TRYING TO GET THINGS FIXED, DEFINITELY WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THIS HOUSE, SO SAD T0 SEE A BUILDER GO THIS ROUTE

Drywall and painting of our home was rushed and it shows. We have crooked wall as well. The lack of concern from our project manager during walk throughs was terrible even though he promised all of our concerns would be addressed and corrected.

My mother said if you have noting nice to say don't say anything so I guess I have nothing to say.

Not worth the hassle. To many unresolved issues. No honest answer about anything.

The overall quality of the home is embarrassing. If Lennar could buy back the home today, I would gladly sell it! Too many things wrong to even begin.

Would not recommend Lennar to anyone. The workmanship is very very poor. There are countless errors that need repairs. The same repairs are having to be completed multiple times due to poor work. There is a lack of communication within the contractors. Workers will come to my home, and not know why they are there. There are paint stains on flooring and carpet. It’s also very hard to get responses from employees with Lennar. Overall, I definitely would not recommend Lennar. The experience has been a complete headache.

Rather than review the loan package and request all needed items at once the person handling the loan kept asking for one thing at a time so I would submit the one document they asked, and then the next day they want another and then another I ended up having to stay in a hotel because I sold my prior home and had nowhere to go. I’ve purchased many homes through the years and this was the absolute worst experience I’ve ever had!!

Mixed results From the sales department, we received miss information. Multiple information was incorrect. Downright incorrect. Also left out good things about the house that we didn’t even know about.. We feel there were changes made to the house and the sales person was never informed. The construction manager and sales person gave us a closing date. Your corporate closing coordinator move the date forward by three weeks and Cost us thousands of dollars and the house was not ready. In addition to that, whoever was in charge of the paperwork was nowhere near ready to have all these homes closed at the same time. After waiting for hours to close, we threatened to pull out of the deal and then miraculously the paperwork was found. On a positive note, working with Aaron and Shelley has been a pleasure and a relief because they have bend over backwards to make things right. There is a lack of quality workmanship from your trade partners. I still have a list of mile long of things that need to be corrected. I’ll let you know in the next survey how well that goes. I just want you to know how close we came to getting out of buying this home because of your closing coordinator and people involved with the paperwork on the deal. ... More

Door hinges shutter drain wrong angle towel hook not installed .

We have purchased several homes in the past, and this by far has been our worst experience. First, we had many difficulties with the builders in order to get the issues fixed correctly in the home before the signing date. The representative who was assigned to us and who suppose to be handling these issues, made us feel like we were in the wrong for bringing them to his attention, and he tried to pursued us that these issues were not valid. We had to go over his head a couple of times in order to resolve them. Very disappointed in the customer service. As far as the actual closing, we had to do a lot of the leg work ourselves in order to get the closing completed. We literally had to go to Lennar's attorney's office twice because they were not returning our calls, which was within just a few days of closing. If we did not made these trips ourselves, our closing would have fallen to the next business week, which would have cost us a substantial amount of money and caused several other issues. This was extremely stressful and unnecessary. We will never buy from Lennar again, and urge people to do their homework before choosing a builder. On the upside, we do love our home and the location. ... More

I’ve written my review on another questionnaire and it’s too long to write: but this was the worst experience for myself and my family . Worst , and I do not write negative reviews , so that should say something.

Brio, the home final walk-through, I made them aware of some issues of the flooring of the house and some other details. The day came of the final war. True they weren’t take care of the person in charge told me they were gonna take care of the same day came back after closing they were not taken care of it, plus I believe it was my underwriter. Wait until the last minute to actually start working on my lawn we were supposed to sign on in the morning didn’t sign into 809 at night time then the title company was sending my personal information.

Get your money and drop you as fast as they can. Been asking for items to be fixed for over 6 weeks without any progress. Started fixing items myself. Reported a water leak over 4 weeks ago and still waiting for anything to be done. Have no idea what damage that is causing. Still waiting on painting to be done and the gutters leak water everywhere but where they are meant to put it. Very sad buying experience!

You should consider taking your business to another builder.

Closed 2 months ago, still couldn’t move in due to issues not addressed as of yet

All around I have not found that this has been a very good experience

I would not recommend lennar to any home buyer. From the mortgage process to the poor workmanship I have experienced on my home and ability to take accountability, I would definitely hot recommend any of these homes to a new home buyer.

The loan process is Terrible.

The model home we looked at was absolutely stunning. We were told that we would get the same quality as the model home. That was COMPLETELY 100% not the case. We purchased a brand new home that looked like it was a 20 year old remodel that someone let there brand new employee with no experience do. I will say Kyle the construction manager tried but there was little he was "allowed" to do to correct the issues. The project manager Aaron was extremely rude and arrogant to my husband when we expressed that the house was not 100% and that we didn't feel like we should close on it. We were essentially bullied into closing. We love our home I just wish that we hadn't had to finish someone else job when we purchased a brand New home. If I had my time to do over I would have defiantly not bought from Lennar. I would have gone with a custom builder. ... More

The overall experience was terrible I had to wait 19 months since I started my first payment and when we closed there was lost of items incomplete, not a good way to do business, we work hard to earn our dollars and we were treated poorly, craftsmanship bad, not a quality control system, lots of imperfections across the all house.

Poor workmanship Full disclosure not evident

Purchased home for $281,000 supposedly on a deal. 6 days after we closed Lennar drops prices on identical house to $271,000. This is stealing from a customer. Spoke to Greg the salesman and he said there is nothing he can do. I felt like i was dealing with a car salesman. Will never purchase from Lennar again and ive told all friends, family, neighbors, and anyone i come across to never ever purchase from Lennar.
