Lennar Reviews in San Antonio, TX

Don't go with Lennar. They have some great people working there, but the company is run poorly. Someone at the top needs to be fired.

We exptected better workmanship and quality from Lennar but ran in to so many issues and obstacles. Poor Construction Manager did not fiish up some of the work on time and we even extended our move in date to help accomodate their delays.

Home is brand new and has issues that have not been fixed. Minor issues but still haven't been fixed.

Closing slipped 3 months from original closing date.

I am overall so disappointed in my new home and the experience that I had purchasing that, six months in, I am considering selling. I have already had leaks around the toilet because the pedestal sat too high - no one bothered to fix it before I moved in. They had to remove the toilet and the flooring, sand down the large concrete bump in the foundation and replace the flooring and toilet - an easy fix if you do it right the first time. I was without full use of my master bath for about 3 weeks while this was being done. After 3 "final" walk throughs almost none of the items we listed were complete. It was closing day by then and I just had to go with it. None of the doors is hung correctly leaving large gaps around doors - the laundry room door is so warped that I am not sure how they hung it. My house was not the most expensive, so I conclude that they either just didn't care about our homes in favor of the more expensive ones or that is just how they do business. They market these homes as the"everything is included homes" when in reality that couldn't be further from the truth. They don't even include doorbells! You basically get your four walls. I will give them credit for including a tankless hot water system and insulating the water pipes well - other than that - I've got nothing good to say. ... More

Our closing date changed 5 times. We are still waiting for a replacement kitchen drawer and it’s been 4 months.

Lennar missed the mark

For +200k the least they could do is add window blinds. Water softener as well but mainly window blinds. Also most homes have two sided sinks to wash and rinse. Nor just one. We still haven't had our AC aligned as promised. Workers getting attitudes with one another about who's in charge. So it took a while to get a part of our home repaired and as stated, AC still doesn't blow to entire part of the house. Ants the first night. Everyone got bit. So many we had to get a hotel and hire someone to come spray. Information giving out EVERYONE. Salea people showing up even at night.

Multiple problems with the portal and dealing with the mortgage team was a nightmare. To date have not been to LF our mortgage was approved. Kudos to Christopher Buentello who kept us informed as to the progress on the home and assisted us with communicating with mortgage team when they did not respond.

I could not have been more disappointed in the treatment we received and the number of fixes and repairs required for a BRAND NEW HOUSE. The Lennar Title Office was absolutely horrible we were lied to repeatedly, just terrible.

The team I worked with included people in San Antonio and in Austin. The only person that did their job on time and checked on us to make sure everything was ok was Thomas G. Everyone else didn’t know how or where to do their job correct. Starting off with the loan advisor who always had to ask a manager to do anything, then he never sent us our paper work for closing so when it was time to close and we were almost keys in hand that were like we need more money from y’all! Nope that’s not what this contract says, so they went and made a new one and had us waiting there! It was horrible! Then the quality of your home is subpar, all basic materials, they don’t provide full landscaping for sod so half of our yard is sod and the other is weeded grass that the city doesn’t come to cut (on their side of the fence), a lot of unsure attitudes dealing with Lennar. I gave two stars because I’m blessed to be able to even have a home, but their materials are cheap and their homes here in San Antonio aren’t meant to be forever homes just in the meantime homes unfortunately. ...

Love the layout of the house, communication between site manager and Mortgage was horrible experience. The model home and your home should be exactly the same. Everything that is included is not included. The Wi-Fi throughout the house was never installed and was told it was not available anymore but on the website it’s included also in the model homes signs inside the house it says it’s included. Five months into the house we are still having major problems.

Don't sign papers until after they lay sod!!!!!

You better think twice and get a second opinion.

The communication throughout this whole process has been terrible. The building of the home was a total rush job. The NHO was a disaster. 2 more walkthroughs were needed to make sure all the repairs and touchups were done. I will never work with Lennar again

Don’t hold there trades to high quality standards of craftsmanship. My backyard is so lumpy & ungraded my I almost sprang my ankle when chasing my kid around the yard.

Why do I need to fix issues with a NEW home?

Do not sign even when they say they'll fix issues without it in writing.

I was excited about having an all-in-one home buying process. The financing side was easy, and the loan officers were helpful and responsive. The only issue I experienced during financing was the third-party verification process they would call and sometimes keep me on hold for hours while confirming information. It wasn’t ideal, but it was manageable. Unfortunately, my experience with the construction team and the overall quality of construction was much less positive. The construction manager repeatedly made excuses for repairs that were not completed on time. The paint work throughout the house was inconsistent and spotty, and during our walkthrough we identified a broken cabinet that needed to be replaced. It was also frustrating that the construction manager was not transparent about the status of repairs. During our final walkthrough, the house was still a mess and many of the repairs from the third-party inspection report had not been completed aside from some paint work. Despite this, he told us the remaining items would be completed by the end of the day and asked us to sign the closing documents before the repairs were finished. When I refused, I was met with more excuses. When I returned for another walkthrough, some of the repairs had been completed, but the construction manager continued to make excuses and even told me the broken cabinet had been replaced when it had not. Instead, it appeared cosmetic fixes such as filler and paint were used to hide the damage rather than properly replacing the cabinet. Now that I am living in the home, I have identified additional items that were either not addressed or were hidden during the initial walkthroughs. This has been very frustrating, as many of these issues should have been resolved prior to closing. It wasn’t until I threatened to pursue legal action that someone finally reached out and ensured the repairs were completed properly. That part of the process was frustrating and disappointing, especially after what started as a smooth buying experience. ... More

This home buying experience was frustrating from start to finish. The build quality did not match the price. Multiple issues showed up that should have been caught before closing. Finishes felt rushed and inconsistent. Communication was weak. Getting updates or answers took repeated follow-ups. Problems were acknowledged but moved slowly, if at all. Some items were marked complete without being properly fixed. Value for the price was disappointing. You pay a premium but still end up chasing basic corrections. If you expect strong attention to detail and prompt service after signing, you’ll likely be let down. I would tell buyers to document everything, push hard, and set expectations early. Do not assume issues will be handled quickly once the paperwork is done. ... More

Wasn’t able to move in on first closing day already had movers ready for set date . Had to keep having workers to come fix things that were done poorly more than twice .

Very poor workmanship! Still waiting on some problems to be fixed! Took the reps word for final walk through….wish I could have been there personally! Very sloppy clean & patch up job!

There is little attention to detail which leaves the final product looking shabby. Many issues that were identified during the walkthrough were never addressed despite several reminders. Electrical issues were not corrected - let's see what happens when I submit a warranty claim. To be fair, this is my second Lennar house, and the first purchase was a lot smoother although attention to detail was not there either.

I had so many issues i had to address them myself. Now, I had poor sod installation with large gaps and after the rain that night caused almost all of the top soil to erode. The head then almost died and lennar refuses to correct it.

Buying- Prepare yourself to be rushed throughout the great home buying experience. Inspections- Have a trustworthy inspector and schedule ahead of time through the home building period, Modelos are the builders choice of hydration. SOD- You’re sod will be left out to dry in the Texas heat, on the stack it comes in and then installed just to be told it’s going through SHOCK, During a stage 3 watering restriction.
