Needs work more on fixing warranty issues
- Eugene S.

Overall good, but not great. WCI needs to work more on warranty issues. Not deny based on what I missed on walkthrough, or this issue is cosmetic. If things installed crooked, and wrong thi sis not a cosmetic issue.

We have not been able to use our master bathroom for 4 out of the 5 months since we've lived here. There are also concerns about the other 2 bathrooms. This is unacceptable as a new home owner.

Sales and closing was professional, pre-warranty work was tedious (poor communications and follow-up, warranty work (communications and response) is good. administrative (Castle) is average, property manager was rude. Overall, we are satisfied with the quality of the house and customer service.

Mixed assessment...

On the day of closing, learned that the areas that were supposed to be fixed by then had not been fixed. didn't wan to delay the closing, and the Construction Manager promised that he would tend to those areas within a few days. It has been six months since I moved in, and I am tending to things one at a time via "after service" clause that covers one-year period. happy with the house and community overall, but dealing with someone, or process, that is not so trustworthy or reliable leaves you with unpleasant feeling -- I hope they improve for future customers.

House Review

- Wesley Chapel, FL
There was no quality control at all while building this house. Also, there is no attention to detail whatsoever while performing the final finishes on the house. The quality of products used especially the paint is of the lowest quality possible. When I signed the contract, they told me the house was going to be built in six months but was built in less than four months. Consequently, due to the rush in building it had many issues, some issues were resolved many did not. Leaving here while construction was going on other homes has been a major nightmare. There is absolutely no Lennar ...

WCI - Unsatisfied with much of the service provided.

Unsatisfied with much of the service provided. Many issues, (too many to mention) before and during move in. There were items still not addressed after living in the home now for 5 months. Not at all happy with appliances...having issues with all of them. When I submit a work order, the service manager tells me to fix it all myself or to call another company.

Thank God for the great neighbors and the water. The home is a Lennar home with WCI slapped on the name. We closed 6 months ago and still are having warranty work done from the poor construction. Construction manager is rude and not helpful. Warranty does their best but they are very busy due to multiple issues on all the homes. They need to step up their game and increase customer communication.

Haven't been able to have any issue fixed and it's been almost six months. Never available when we are there. I heard things may get fixed once they finish all the new construction.

The plumbers & painters they use are awful. Our foreman was wonderful, but if you had to go through the company for issues, things seemed to be pushed off. Craftmanship & finishes are very poor.

We bought a home a few months back and love it. Had a few little items to fix and the warranty issues got solved asap. I sell homes for a living so I see a lot and WCI builds some good strong homes. Couldn't be happier with the process so far.

Construction didn't do there job and relied on Customer Service to complete work they couldn't do. As a past Lennar employee and construction Manager the quality is unacceptable.

Quality Issues
- Brian W.

- October 02, 2019
- Palmetto, FL
With new construction there are always going to be "issues" and that is why builders offer a warranty. No one expects to have roof leaks or water just coming through the windows but it happened. The response to these issues were good. When it comes to the finishing work it has unfortunately been poor; literally received a quote from a VP (who refuses to get on the phone) say that is "cosmetic". Yes, when your trades beat everything up that is on you and when you purchase a new home and spend $500k the customer expects things to look good and not be beaten. Builders need to be accountable ...

We feel that the home buying process was super easy with Lennar. I closed in a month! I raised a question about No CDD fees advertised however, I was instructed later that it would not be charged this year but next year. However, they took out CDDs from settlement funds for 2018 and I haven't seen a refund. Sanctuary Cove is a great, quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors.
