Lennar Reviews in San Antonio, TX

Plenty of issues with quality of work that is not 100% overseen by construction mgr. Continue to have issues. Will not be staying in elm valley long, and next home will not be with lennar

There is a lack of communication between the numerous different people you have to deal with when buying a home. They all have different assignments but it’s like they don’t communicate between each other. Some do but some don’t. You have to abide by there schedule and process when purchasing but then repairs and cleaning weren’t done by the time we closed. Some cleaning still never got done so we had to do that ourselves. The paint they use is so cheap that when you bump into a wall with a cardboard box it chips or scuffs and the whole interior of the house is covered in this paint. It’s VERY frustrating. After a few weeks and a lot of rain you can tell white paint on the outside trim is thinning out and can see the darker coloring bleed through. The second story floor creaks every where because they use staples and nails instead of screws, but they say that’s not covered under warranty. Just saying that quality paint and the use screws on the floor instead of nails shouldn’t be corners they cut, I mean it can’t be that much more expensive in the big picture. ... More

Being attentive to the time frame that you are being assisted with a HOA problem One barely moving in not even 3 months

Worst first home buyers experience

You would think paying almost $400,000 for a house it’d come dang near perfect but not the case at all. MULTIPLE major and minor issues, many that were listed off to be fixed before our move in date that were not. Bubbles in the drywall (ceilings and walls), crooked outlets, windows, door knobs, doors not latching, towel bar falling out of drywall, all hot water was running out of the cold side and vice versa, bathtub leak in spare bathroom, chips in the tile. Very poor quality. Not to mention the amount of trash we have blow into our yard daily due to the careless workers not being able to use a trash can or trash bag. When requesting minor issues to be corrected, builder almost like sees it as an inconvenience and we should let it slide. Absolutely not. ... More

roof leaks large holes animals can get in attic their fix was spray foam paint is pealing cabinets stink and the over smoke is bad the over is new and puts out so much heat at the vent that you can’t leave anything on the top

The walls are buildt with only insulated card board and hardi plank.

I understand the homes are affordable and you get what you pay for, however I would have gladly paid a bit more to get a complete house. I only got sod in half of my yard, after closing I had to constantly follow up to get the sod installed. The fence has no warranty and it’s already falling apart, there is no faucet in the backyard. I also found the builders fee in the contract sneaky, I noticed the fee but I bet many buyers don’t. Overall I regret buying a Lennar home.

Lennar is extremely low end. They pinch pennies and do not build any part of the house with quality. There will be glue on the floor, chipped sinks, sheetrock lining hanging out with staples showing, no spicket in the backyard for a hose (who doesnt put water in the front and back?!?!

I have had the worst experience ever. My home was not even ready to move into when I moved it. It has still yet to be cleaned. There is still blue tape on on damaged of my house that were never repaired even after multiple phone calls. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER LENNAR HOME. I will do my time living in this house and can’t wait to sell it and move. There is nails sticking out of the all where my kids play. After repeatedly asking even in my blue tape walk for it to be taken care it wasn’t. That is insane! Adam the gentleman that helped me through the financing is great!

From the Lennar using unskilled labor for cheap overhead cost to work. To their money grabbing hoa. Lennar has succeeded all expectations of failing to do the simple things by cutting corners, radius, and diameters in the quality of building homes. There is not enough space in this box to write down all the deficiencies.

Since we moved in we have been having problems after problems. Everytime I call to place a warranty work order there always seem to be a long wait time no one answer phone calls. I have emergency problems and no one came out to help. I had water line bust and was told it’s not an emergency and the list countinues on and on.

As a first time homebuyer I was excited for the process and now I’m upset and disappointed with the whole thing and wish I didn’t buy the house now since moving in the home I have had 5 issues, and the biggest problem was a leak leak and garbage disposal leaking watering all under the sink and let not talk about the voucher they provide that you can’t even use,, The dishonesty and the communication here sucks

After I moved in took long for grass to be put on the yard and had to many issues on the walls you could see screws and pilling house started shifting just stuff that should not happen on a new home that cost and paid a lot of money

Bought a few homes before and have never experience such poor workmanship and quality of products used. No quality control such sloppiness in painting and concrete work. No one wants to take accountability for the poor workmanship. I needs some items fixed but do not trust that the issues would look or be fixed any better than they do now.

If there were a no star available for some categories, I would have put zero stars. On paper, an inspection was done but the mistakes missed during the “inspection” indicate nothing short of negligence. After two months, I am still dealing with Lennar mistakes and losing days waiting for workers who either don’t show or don’t complete the job. The lack of communication between Lennar and contractors only adds to the problems. Just today a worker was supposed to show and here I sit. Even contacting Lennar about the no show is getting no response. Lennar needs to address these very obvious shortcomings. ... More

Excellent response till the date closing is not completed, after its hard to get the response. Not satisfied with the material and appliances.

These are NOT homes!!!!!! They are just houses built by contractors that have no pride in workmanship! Would not recommend this builder.

The building staff will ask you to give a great review because their jobs are on the line. I felt sorry for them. Also, they sell your mortgage as soon as the ink dries on your contract. The new company hasn’t paid taxes or HOA fees. My advice: don’t do it

The lack of communication - such as never telling us when you wanted us to pay the energy bill (even though we had been asking you and the energy company). So ins instead, our home lost power. Thankfully we were home and could rectify it immediately, but as a military family, imagine if we weren't? Food isn't cheap these days.

When we bought, I didn’t hear from my sales person at all. They never cleaned the home before giving the keys. I had to go in and clean before I could move in. They never showed me how to change the filter in the attic. They are not good about fixing things. I finally gave up and are fixing things on my own. And finally, what kind of home builders don’t give you screens for windows??? I had to MAKE them on my own! Look at other builders before buying unless you plans to spend A LOT!

There was a lot of back and forth between what Lennar should/should not be doing for their customer. This led to some animosity at times, however nothing was ever asked of Lennar that should not have been handled without even asking. Overall, for the most part things were completed before I moved in.

My thoughts are still out. Waiting for closing day. I would like someone from upper management to contact me when done

I purchased my home by the help of a virtual assistant (young eyes) and showed it was spacious, had a nice yard and the price range was good, but little did I know after moving, that this home was not meant for seniors/retirees due to the fact in order to replace the a/c filter you would need to pull down a step ladder, adjust it to secure it’s locked then climb up to the attic in order to replace the a/c filter. It’s just a matter of time before an accident occurs. There are drafts from the doors and windows, you can see the caulk is cracking by the walls of the kitchen counter. if I had been able to personally walk through this house before purchasing I wouldn’t have purchased it. ...

This is the 3rd Lennar home we have purchased. The first two homes were well built, the purchase process was easy and the limited warranty work was done well. This time the process was much more stressful. First, we were not allowed to use our Realtor due to some rule that we had used a different one with Lennar in the past. This made the process much more difficult for us. Second strike was the inability of our sales person to respond to us. Once we signed the contract, we were dead to her. After the sale, the person who was supposed to be a liason would never answer calls and always send emails right as day was ending so we could never respond and get quick answers. To say the process up to move in was frustrating was an understatement. To male matters worse, Lennat asked to move up the close date. We could not do quite as early as they asked as the date didn't line up with our other closing. We did move up as much as possible. Yet when we got close closing, the home wasn't close to ready. Our inspection was rescheduled 3 times. The 2nd time we drove by the house on Saturday for a Monday inspection to see the house still had days of work to be done. Even when we did the inspection, appliances were not there, irrigation was not placed among other key things that should have been inspected. Due to the rushed nature of the build, we have had more warranty claims in one month than we did on two other homes combined. The overall feeling is the entire community is being built too fast for th3 team or without regard to quality. Lastly, we recently had to have our back fence removed to dig a sewer line. We were told it was just for when the excavator needed to turn. 10 minutes into job, the excavator had drove over the irrigation system and newly laid sod. Even after it was "capped" we still se water seeping into hoke they have been digging for over 2 weeks with no end in site. ... More
