Lennar Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

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.

You should consider taking your business to another builder.

The sales team to start is beyond wonderful until you sign that contract, then you become a number. You better shut up and not make them work either, otherwise they will demean and demoralize you in hope that they can tear up the contract and sell it at a higher price. The workmanship is a joke. The house is literally falling apart left and right and warranty claims that I have put in in October still aren’t fixed at the end of January. I’ll be making street signs with all of my warranty issues that will remain in my front yard for all potential buyers to see until all issues are fixed. Thank you Lennar for building the biggest joke of a house! ... More

We were told that a subcontractor would be by to fix issues with the bathroom tub. The subcontractor has not contacted us or come by to fix the problem. We had COVID three days after occupancy and have not anything to follow up since we have recovered. Other than that issue the home is as advertised. Not the best workmanship but it is fine for a tract home.

They are very good. I’m happy with the job

Very disappointed with quality and workmanship

I feel like they are in such a hurry to throw these houses up that the workmanship gets compromised. I have been in my home for 2 months and have had multiple repair orders put in 4 things that should have been taken care of the first time. I feel like once they get your name on the dotted line you are just a number. They are more concerned with getting their bonuses then the customer experience of getting a quality product. Not having a pool in Phase 5 was a terrible decision on the part of the builder. 1 pool for all of Belle Harbor is ridiculous.

Everyone we dealt with was great. No major issues and would definitely recommend Lennar to others. Thanks.

Our overall experience with Lennar has been good. We are very disappointed in their choice of materials for the faux stone on the exterior which didn’t allow application of the stone per architectural drawings. They left a 5” gap at the bottom leaving exposed foundation. We are also disappointed that the vanities they chose in the bathrooms have no drawers. Extremely inconvenient. We closed in October and still have 5 incomplete items from our punch list. Make sure everything is completed before you close.

Went to closing being told I had a surplus and would be receiving a check instead at closing was told I owed over a Grand.

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

Overall a great experience and no more snow!!!!

The house was not nearly ready for closing. The windows won’t shut, smoke detectors and lights hanging from the wall, concrete cracked, and I was threatened if I didn’t close by end of November, they would keep my deposit. They skipped the final walk through and were still laying carpet while I was at closing. I would not have closed, if I was not being threatened, they would keep my security deposit.

Responsiveness to issues has been a problem.

Lennar doesn't care about their customer's

We received our home about two months after the initial close date that we were told. We were told that our initial close date was possible because they already had the materials, therefore there wouldn't be a setback due to materials. About one month before we were set to close and after questioning the time frame, we were told that we misunderstood them having the materials - what they meant was they had the "purchasing power" to buy the materials. At this point it was 3 months after I signed the contract and price homes had gone up 20-30k so it made no sense to bail out and buy elsewhere - I was stuck and they knew it. My family and I were displaced while waiting on them. Fast forward to closing day, the house was extremely dirty inside. Dust everywhere, dirty mirrors... so they sent the cleaners back out the next day. Same result! Awful attention to detail - that's the project manager's responsibility to ensure their contractors are doing their job right because it's FOR THEIR CUSTOMER. As slow as the houses are being built there should be plenty of time to review the quality of the work being done. Problem is that the PM is too busy dealing with problems that the contractors are causing because the labor is cheap and cheap is what you get. Oh... they didn't paint the inside of the garage because "it's considered an exterior surface". So they use drywall on exterior surfaces? Yup, awful! ... More
