Lennar Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

Initial purchase with sales was great. They are fantastic people. Felt the mortgage department of Lennar to be friendly but a little pushy as we did not mortgage with Lennar and got several calls asking why and encouraging us to give them our business. Walk throughs were great and very informative as our questions were answered and issues resolved. It was only after closing, which was a bit strange that we felt a little forgotten.

We bought at 60% completion and lived locally. We visited every day. Lots of substandard work from the start. The construction manager was responsive but a lot of the crews are independent so he was at their mercy to get them to show up. Two major issues: the concrete patio pad was left off when the foundation was originally poured. They poured a pad but it was not the 4” at each side. There was a hole at one edge that you could put a stick under up to a foot and you could see that it was thin on that side. It was supposed to be handled. Before it got any repair, the grader got that area with the bobcat and broke out a piece. It was patched. We have asked for repair again but the warranty supervisor said they don’t guarantee concrete match (?). How about a correctly poured slab?? Problem #2- our front entry wall began to bow out. We were told to report it to warranty and later found out this person was depending on the construction manager to schedule the work. We did get a carpentry crew in that removed the garage side wall and we discovered 2x4s that were bowing and twisted. They replaced all of these, replaced the OSB and now we are waiting for trim to remove the trim and then the sheetrock crew to remove the entire wall to replace it. This has been ongoing for a month minimally. We have no key to our mailbox so we have to flag down the mailman. The keys were lost in the mail to Lennar. There are other issues that we have dealt with and several that they are now putting off to the 11th month warranty inspection. We love the location, have great neighbors but have had a very poor experience with Lennar in general. We have been unable to get above the local level to talk with someone about these issues. All of our neighbors are having the same lack of response. ... More

Overall it was a good experience. I liked the model immediately. Having built houses before, I was somewhat disappointed with the interior paint job and the choice of carpet. There were other examples of a careless job. The flooring could prove to be problematic. The word that comes to mind is "rushed" because this is such a large development and people are buying houses quickly. I wish that I had been able to give input and change some things. I feel very comfortable in the house and will make changes after I have lived here longer.

The entire experience has been poor. Issues do not get addressed and even when they are they are only half addressed. There are issues we have had since our one and only walk through before closing that still have not been addressed. We were also promised multiple walk throughs, throughout the process and did not receive them.

Overall experience was good. Follow up builder repairs prior to move in were slow. Still waiting for island repair 2 months later

The quality on the finish was not good at all. We are still trying to get things completed 2 months later.

I knew going in the house for the money is good workmeship not so good moldings sloppy doors don't fit properly, hoa rules to many restriction neighborhood is very nice.

We love the house. However service after the sale is not good. We have issues that we have shown our construction manager and they have not all been dealt with yet.

Again. Lannar uses the cheapest materials that they can find. Building houses so fast the Quality of the homes have so items that needed corrected before a purchase is done.Yes we can come back and take care of mistakes which is an inconvenience to the owner. You think of only how fast to build and your profit you make.Employees are nice but that doesn’t take care of the Quality of work. Would not purchase another home by Lannar and will share my experience with friends.

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

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.

The builder was overwhelmed with closings and could not complete construction on our home by closing. Punch out items took an additional week after closing. We placed on contract on a nearly completed home one month prior, but the builder prioritized other homes over this one for completion.

The home buying experience was generally smooth. But once we closed it was difficult to get anyone to complete things that were supposed to be completed

Nothing good to say accept staff I met are outstanding

Had a great move. They answered all my questions and helped me have a smooth move.

Quality of workmanship is lacking

They have a very good reputation, There features and designs are very nice, This neighborhood is very well designed.

I am very disappointed with all processes that I have been engaged in. I secured a mortgage with Lennar only to have this company break every law and promise to my wife and I. I have spent hours looking up previous reviews and on-going issues and they are not good! I am going to make a highly recommendation that this company should be investigated.

Selling my home was very stressful. This was an out of state move for me but the Lennar team reassured me and kept me informed every step of the way. Transparency is key, and Lennar helped me make the decisions which best fit my specific situation with no pressure!

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.

Overall it was a pretty smooth transaction from the builders end of it. The floor plan is real nice, a lot of the finishes are nice and the upgraded plank flooring is beautiful. Biggest complaint is the walls/paint/sheetrock, some of the walls are NOT straight, bows in them from the get go, many neighbors have seen the same thing in their homes walls. Paint is builder quality cheap- so count on painting walls yourself because any time you touch them it leaves a mark and you cannot clean them like you good a good quality paint. overall, walls aside- I am real happy with the house and the Lennar sales team and online team was top notch. ...

My experience with Lennar has been more like a nightmare. But ask anyone in our new development, and they will say the same thing. First, they have no regard for your closing date. They pushed us out 4 months resulting in a lease back then short-term costing us an additional $10,000 with storage fees. The quality of the work is as bad as it gets. Every trade is subbed out and no one cares as long as they meet their quota: Doors don't shut, windows don't close, siding is falling, trim molding does not line up, caulk everywhere, crappy paint, cheapest carpets, flooring and appliances they can get. Here are the kickers...for my house, they didn't have a garage door to get through final inspection. Our construction supervisor said he found a damaged one that was going to be scrapped. (It was dented and painted red all over the inside) He said he would use the damaged door to get through inspection then replace it a month later with a new door. Two months have come and gone and they are now telling us that they will not replace the door. I had it in writing that they would replace they door. They basically said, "Sorry. Can't help you." To access our street, we must take a private road which Lennar does not own. It was never meant to be a thru street as it was constructed as part of an old golf course over 20 years ago. The street is almost not passible. It is lined on both sides with crater sized potholes, one after another. You are forced to zig zag the entire length of the road to avoid the craters while negotiating oncoming traffic. Lennar will not fix this short road because they don't have to. They Lennar home buying experience has caused me more anxiety, pain and suffering than I could ever imagine. It will do the same for you. ... More

My fiancé and I wanted to find the perfect community for our five daughters to grow up in. The woman that referred us online to this community was extremely kind and helpful. She was very professional. We then had an amazing experience with the gentleman in charge of showing us home selections. We chose a beautiful five bedroom home and we are extremely happy. There were a few small issues however those issues were resolved immediately with no hesitation. Thank you very much Lennar employees for making this a great experience for my family.

The salesmen are very friendly, helpful and always ready to listen to you. The home is beautiful and the price is amazing for the market we are in.

The only positive thing I can say is they have nice floor plans. This has not been a good nor even decent experience. Shoddy workmanship and unethical practices from Lennar.
