Lennar Reviews in Nashville, TN

I purchased a new construction home and unfortunately it was not the greatest...or even a good experience. The new homes sales rep did not seem knowledgeable when asked questions and on at least 3 occasions told me things that were not true about finishes and the lot. The structure of the home seems good. However, the finishes were not done thoughtfully or carefully at all. Sloppy paint (on the flooring, cabinetry and spots on carpet), caulking on doors and cabinetry that is very thick and stands out in spots, low quality appliances and finished products. It really is just the shell of a home that needs a lot of work. The bathrooms don't even have vanity lights...there is one recessed light in the ceiling. It appears (and seems others have expressed the same concern/ frustration) that Lennar is notorious for cutting costs as much as possible and it shows. The post sale team I have worked with has been wonderful but everything else has been a poor experience. ... More

The build experience with Lennar was terrible. I have told my friends to go elsewhere unless this is all they can afford! From the get go, things were chaotic and disorganized and unprofessional. The selling team will tell you one thing and then later say something completely different and act like you’re the one who made it up! Then when we moved on to construction, everything seemed alright until we had issues with the build that our inspector found. There was so much sloppy workmanship. And the construction manager said he made necessary repairs that we were able to check and find out he didn’t actually do! The mortgage team started off alright, which was a huge plus after working with the selling team. However, they ended up also being chaotic and disorganized and unprofessional. The home looks good, and I like my neighbors. The building experience was awful though, so I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone unless they’re okay with sticking through a horrible process. I have worked with another builder before who had much better employees. Lennar is unfortunately filled with unprofessional, unkind employees who don’t tell the truth. Be sure to get a pre-drywall inspection and another inspection before closing. I like my house, but it was a rough process getting here. ... More

The overall quality for the price paid was very disappointing. The AC unit was not set up correctly and leaked in our ceiling, the trim was not straight on almost all walls, paint was splattered on our new floors and stained. The floors have nail pops and bumps, and the walls have many pops and cracks already. I would not purchase another Lennar home unfortunately. Great customer service but poor quality home.

I am very disappointed with my new townhome. LOTS of slipshod work and no attention to detail in making things look nice. LOTS of corners cut. I would not recommend Lennar Builders or my sales person. He never gave updates when he said he would and repeatedly would not return phone calls for weeks.

The workmanship was poor, drywall imperfections everywhere and gaps in trim. Pretty disappointed. I have also had very little communication from the sales and warannty team. I bought a home with David Weekley a year ago so I have a good baseline understanding of the process and Lennar's experience was far inferior to David Weekley's.

Subcontractors: the attention to detail is lacking. No home will ever be perfect but you can tell when a subcontractor cares about the quality of work they complete. These subcontractors left carpet being lifted up in corners, paint on the baseboards, more paint needed on the walls, and the sod is absolutely ridiculous. There are seperations between sod spots the size of my foot. Lennar- If Lennar truly cares about the communities they are building they will have the common grounds sodded and the subcontractors pick up their messes. I continuously pick up trash in my back yard, had gravel sitting in my newly laid sod (which I laid myself) for the last week. Project Managers and Community Managers- They are all great, but its clear they are stretched thin. Lots of potential but I have been let down with the 25-30 items existing on my 30 day walk through. This is also after paying for a buyers expensed home inspection. ... More

Poor quality of materials, framing bad so walls crooked and cabinets hung crooked. Cheap recessed lights and cheap cabinets. Never experienced a builder that does standby their work and do a 12 month punch list. Still issues outstanding and things not working correctly and I only closed 4 months ago.

GOOD FOR SELLING A HOUSE, ONLY THAT, SINCE THEY DO NOT DELIVERY THE HOUSE 100% READY. ITS QUALITY CONTROL IS BAD AND THE RESPONSE LEVEL IS VERY POOR.

Sales and local construction manager did a great job. The process of getting warranty claims resolved is terrible unless you’re talking to someone at the corporate office or a regional President. The preferred lender will lie and threaten you in an attempt to gain your business. Overall a pass if it were pass/fail (but not by much).

Very cheaply made for what we paid. You can tell they build these homes in 120 days. Appliances are super cheap. Yes it's quartz countertops but very thin. Cabinets hit other cabinets when they're being opened which leads to paint chipping. Gaps in the trim (not flush with the floor). Cheap wire closet "organization". They had to use a zip off form of insulation for the attic as the HVAC was poorly installed - I know this bc my husband has been in the industry for 10+ years. I mean, the list goes on and on. Lennar Mortgage is beyond awful - and that's an understatement. Home buying process was an absolute disaster and the worst experience I've had by far in the 4 homes I've now purchased. From start to now - it's safe to say we will not buy another Lennar home. The only somewhat highlight is our customer advocate (who we call when something needs to be done) has been very responsive. ... More

Run the other way.

Most of the poor experience began at the time of the final walk. Nothing on the list had been completed. Numerous drywall issues throughout, bad paint. Entire new build fit and finish left a lot to be desired. When meeting with Lennar Reps, a couple of them stated "I didn't build it". Frustrating to hear when you are speaking to someone wearing a Lennar shirt. Was finally able to get things sorted out but took a visit with Division President to do so.

Part of our floor was damaged and needs taken care of.Paint on doors and door frames wrong color-not fixed yet.Some drywall work needs to be done. touch up.Sliding doors need to be replaced.stove needs to be leveled.windows and screens need to be cleaned.Irrigation hasn’t been on in awhile.Might be more so I’ll have to look.Thank you.

I was waiting for this review to come to my email because I have a lot to say about Lennar. First off, during the building process we noticed that there was a "water leak" that was seeping and noticeable in our drywall. Lennar said not to worry and did nothing but touch it up with paint. The craftsmanship around the edges on doors and walls is very poor especially with the fact that it is a BRAND NEW home for the price we are paying. During construction we were told that we were not allowed to come see the progress on our home without a lennar employee, We scheduled a visit 3 times with our sales person to come out with us and NOT a single time did they follow through with that and we walked our home alone. Lastly, we were just supposed to have our 30 day paint touch up meeting with the customer cares team. I had to take off of work for this day to make sure someone was home. No one ever showed up to my home and I was very disappointed in this because I made time for them, but they never have made time for me. I will do my paint touch ups myself. I would never buy a used or new lennar home again and will never reccomend lennar to a friend. If I could put 0 stars on some ratings, I would. ... More

No Follow through. Several quality issues pre and post closing

Built to fast, not everything was completed, still having issues and finding new things wrong! Issues slow to be resolved! Seems like no one cares about the issues at hand. No communication!

Work with Gavin and Rocky was above satisfactory. Was required to sell my house to keep this one off the market, but would not give me a closing date. We were able to move just before being homeless but we got only one day notice. The experience was nerve racking and frustrating. VERY UNACCEPTABLE.

Had a bad experience with the recent purchase. I was either given with a wrong mailbox key or the label inside mailbox is swapped. I’m only getting mails of my neighbour. Followed up with postal office and they say they’re delivering mail to correct box. HOA does not help with this and no one from Lennar owns this issue to resolve. The issue is still unresolved

Poor quality, constant issues, ghosted by Lennar when it comes to fixing issues. Everything is downplayed and not fixed. Horrible experience with every department in the process

Brand new home had a broken truss that had to be repaired. Was informed that the HVAC system had been installed on the wrong side of the house, which it still is. According to the construction foreman it won’t affect the system. Hope he’s right. Inferior lumber used throughout construction. Terrible drywall prep and painting throughout entire house. Dry paint in carpet, all over floors and door hardware. LED lights in ceiling are going bad. Trim work is sloppy. Have had to have windows replaced and now the outside panel on the sliding glass door has to be replaced. This has been a terrible experience with a terrible built home. The only good experience I’ve had is working with Jessica. She has been going above and beyond trying to help me get things repaired. She has been doing an amazing job. I will never recommend a Lennar home to anyone. I tell people if you want to see how a Lennar home is built, just watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Pay close attention to Charlie’s house. Bam! There you have it! Not sorry! ... More

Things starts to break from day 1, quality is very poor. Kitchen cabinets have wholes and they will not take care by saying they can't do any thing. First rain brought water and some of things started to break... Worst quality material, they just want to close faster without even taking care all the things that we mention during walk through. Overall bad experience.

Customer service is absolutely hands down the worst in the business!!

I would never buy another Lennar home. Terrible builder, shoddy workmanship and cheap materials. You definitely do not get what you pay for.

My Lennar loan officer was not trustworthy or responsive. He didn’t respond to several voicemail over a 4 week period and it cost me .25% on my rate. He claimed to not remember how much money I had for a down payment. This was discussed in our initial call & multiple times thereafter. He did a poor job of fully explaining options & even stated that Lennar’s promise to pay closing costs was “just marketing “! When I arrived to my home orientation, the entire interior had not been painted & there were drywall flaws throughout. The painters were rushing to finish the day of final walkthrough & closing. The finishing work was absolutely terrible! The interior doors were warped, damaged & hung unevenly. The sod was dead in the front & back yards and my sprinkler system still doesn’t work after 7 weeks. I’ve had to schedule repair work with 6 different sub contractors so far. I’m very disappointed with Lennar. ... More

Poor quality construction Poor post closing support Very good marketing team
