Lennar Reviews in San Antonio, TX

First home. Priced where I needed it. They’re quick to respond for work orders, but depending on what you need will depend on how condescending some of the vendors you have to use or field people are with concerns. Quite a few things were ignored on final walk through and still problematic and/or will be within the next year. Almost died from a gas leak the plumber blamed rhe HVAC and builder for and in the same breath said it was my fault for calling the gas company instead of them. For the most part, you get what you paid for.

I was so excited to find a home that fit my budget. The floor plan was perfect. The location convenient for shopping and providing easy access to local events and entertainment options. Reality set in. Quality of home, once I remembered I wasn't in the luxury market, is acceptable. Pay attention when you do your final walkthrough to minimize return visits from the trades to fix issues. Quality of appliances that were included were entry level builders models. Be prepared to buy your own refrigerator and laundry appliances. Lennar builds homes at a variety of levels. I'm sure their more expensive models include bells and whistles - that's built into the price. I'm grateful they also have a product for those with lower resources who can still have something to be happy to own. ... More

In the beginning with the walk through things was great. Afterwards a different story. Disappointed with the overall general contractors making sure that the workers did a thorough and complete job on things that needed cleaning up. Will have to do the job myself on touch ups that looked not so clean. Cleaning crew did a halfway job on a very nice new build home look it's best. Had an issue with new stove provided by Lennar and called the customer care personnel never got a follow-up call to see if my issue was resolved. On a positive note. The sales consultant and the financial personnels was fabulous. They made the process simple and stress free. The rest need to take pointers from this part of the team. I am thankful for this blessing; it would have been nice if the other half came through on their promises. ... More

Build quality seems to be done as cheaply as possible. All interior items are builder grade or low end. Only one outside faucet is also example of cost cutting measures. One disappointment was the poor installation of the sod for the homes yard. Soil prep was poorly done and I have to keep removing rocks under the sod, causing it to lay unevenly. Cannot evaluate all aspects of build quality at this early date. Will see how everything holds up over time Lennar employees were friendly and helpful during the purchasing process. Projected closing and inspection dates were all met.

Unfortunately we are still waiting for the original punch list to be completed well after a month of us closing on our home. Many items that needed to be addressed were never completed. The new home on the day of closing was filthy inside and the driveway was very muddy.

This is our second home with Lennar and mostly had smooth experience through out the home buying process. Worked again with Joseph (sales), Leslie (loan officer) and Tony (escrow officer) from Lennar who were able to walk thru the closing process seamlessly and was able to answer all our questions in timely manner. Only issue we had was with Nicole from construction team during closing who won’t communicate neither respond to messages nor calls and had hard time getting details.

My wife and me are entering our 2nd month of ownership and I can only give 3 stars for overall satisfaction. I feel the title I've given this post is correct. First, Lennar's advertising for their homes is very misleading. The Web Site claims you get everything you need at move-in You Do Not. Not to give anything away but I paid over $270 thousand for our home and It Did Not even come with towel racks in the bathrooms nor did it come with lighting over the vanities. You would think for that price these small amenities would be standard. They are not. This alone should give you ,the potential buyer, what you are in for with a Lennar home. This home is my 8th home I've purchased in my life, in every case the home I bought had a refrigerator and microwave, this Lennar home Did Not. Profit over Quality should be the Lennar motto. Buyer beware not all that glitters is gold. ... More

Overall good experience, only area not happy with is responsiveness to warranty issues. Think the closing could have been more personalized as well.

Overall, the quality of Lennar is basic. We’ve found a lot of half-completed items ranging from: no anchors on bathroom hardware so items falling off the wall, corners cut in flooring/walls, tiles uneven, front yard sinking, etc. The view and location is why we purchased this home. Honestly, Debbie & John (warranty/construction) team are why this experience was great. Debbie is the best & Lennar is blessed to have her. There are many items we have to upgrade since Lennar builds basic builder grade homes. If you’re ok with a decent price point & updating items on your own, this is a good place to build. Simply, Johnson Ranch is about location and not this builder. ... More

My experience was good, until the lack of construction keys control resulted in a Burglary of my new house. Caution, upon closing ensure your keys are recalibrated to cancel all others. However the overall experience was positive. Good staffing and responsive to assistance in purchasing. Excellent noteworthy support from Natasha, Chris, Yolanda, Miranda, and inclosing MyKayla,

Honestly, I do like my house a lot but I am really unsure about so much. Every single employee that I worked with, leading up to closing day, was absolutely amazing. We were not able to pick anything (not customizable) but they did agree to lay vinyl for me throughout the first floor rather than carpet the bedrooms. That was a huge win and I literally could not say enough great things about the local team from sales, to construction managers, and even to the loan officer and lenders, etc. Larissa, Victor, Mickey... all great to us. However, there is just so much that went wrong before closing. Although those on the ground did everything they could to get us into our home, we had to move-in with less than stellar completion because we moved from another state and had nowhere to live and no additional time/money to continue wasting on rentals. While I feel they begrudgingly fixed some of my "nitpicky" things during walkthrough, I am still unhappy with so much when it comes to the quality of workmanship and materials (i.e. the tile in the master bathroom is hideous and only belongs in locker rooms). Not to mention, it still looks like a child caulked it. Plus, as we started living here, so many things have been brought into light. Giant holes behind the lighting fixtures because they were cut out by a one-armed man, apparently. Honestly, I am afraid what we will find after our warranty expires or whether or not I'm living in a "money pit". Based on my feelings dealing with the local team, the "people at the top" were forcing us into signing off on everything too quickly. We had no choice though - with a locked in rate as well. We were made to feel like we were doing something wrong by having SO MUCH on the list to fix before close - and we did multiple walkthroughs. I really disliked the fact that I was made to feel "petty" about things (i.e. paint color touchups with the wrong color paint)! But, how is this our fault? I am paying you for a product that my family needs to be able to enjoy for years likely (with a recession) and feel safe in. Yet, all I heard was "management this" and "management that". Well, maybe the management in their corner offices want to come down next time and take a peek at the quality you are allowing to be put out. Your buyers aren't the problem so to make us feel like an inconvenience was a huge disappointment given the experience up to that point. And, it's very clear that it was not the local team pushing - they were trying to do everything in their power to help us, make us happy, and ensure things were done "right". Specifically, like making them replace the grass in the back that someone just let die instead of saying "it will grow back in a few months" like someone did. I just don't feel good will towards the overall company, and the people running it at the highest levels. The area is great, very pretty, and they've done a nice job on the development. However, the pool is far too small for the number of homes (although I hear they're building an olympic size pool in 2 years), as is the gym. But, likely that will make HOA fees go higher and this area is already highly taxed and has MUD tax. The parks also have zero overhead cover which is insane in this heat and the playground meant for smaller children is definitely not very toddler friendly. The lots are small and hilly in areas; oddly laid out. You see everything; our back deck looks straight into our neighborn's dining room window. For the price I paid, in the market we were in, I had to concede things like lot size. However, I will likely never buy another Lennar home in a box again. ... More

The female loan officer was a total nightmare. She had no clue how to talk to us and couldn't explain what she wanted.

Buying home experience was great. Once we moved in found so many little things that need to be fixed. They are building too fast and cut corners.

I which they had explained all the explained extras @ Such as the water softener and no set up, no screens on the windows etc. All things that raise the cost

I don't now recall the name of our builder rep because we never met him. Tim was there in his stead the whole time. Tim was great! The warranty rep was nice and responsive as well. The sale rep was also kind and helpful. I will say that the choice of using regrettably cheap paint, the state of the garage (inside) left by the builders, unfortunate choice and handling of the sod, and drops of paint left on my carpet was not cool. My ultimate negative issue is that of only having ONE external hose. It is inane that there is not one on the opposite corner or at least one in the back yard. What a huge inconvenience for the homeowner. I would expect better quality paint, appliances above the cheapest option, and a bit more care put into the garage walls and water spout placement. ...

It's a decent home.

I disliked that the side of the house the ground is not flat, even the backyard and front yard. There is no waterholes in the backyard only on the side of the house. Disliked that they didn’t cover the entire backyard with grass. Disliked that the house didn’t come with a microwave only a stove. They used cheaper lights.

Overall Lennar is a decent home builder, but there is room for improvements. Especially in quality of workmanship where it’s lacking attention to details.

see the above comments. Please refrain from sending review questionaires.

Well first off the price was kinda steep, didn’t even get pre- plumbing for a water softener, no garage door opener not even ceiling fans for the owners suite or the living room. Then they just put together a wooden step in the back yard for when you walk out to the backyard, very cheap.

Random things in the house were found to not work or not be installed correctly. Electrical outlets not working is very annoying.

First time home buyer. Did not realize everything I would have to look out for. If I had thought to check some of these things probably would not have purchased this home. No faucet in the back yard to water my grass. I feel this should be mandatory, but what do I know? All the toe kicks in the kitchen are hanging on for dear life they will all fall off eventually. Had a minor gas leak that I did not report for a few weeks because I was told the faint fas smell near the meter was NORMAL, yes Im the idiot for believing that, this I do realize. Im sure there's more that I can't remember.

I'm please with my Lennar home. Coworkers were very cooperative, helpful and informative. Great experience. Thank you, Lennar

Great floorplan and upgrades. Drywall, paint, and details around the house have been quite shoddy. The electrical breaker for the dryer outlet was never installed! How did that even pass inspection??

Experience was okay. When I moved into the home I started noticing the workmanship of the home. I just felt like they rushed to finish the house
