Reseñas de Lennar

Painter sloppy, Tile floors marked up, dishwasher was not installed correctly… gaps in sliding doors big enough for mice to get through… I see the A/C repair guy at one house or another every day on my street.

Most of the experience was good with the exception of the closing process. They close of the house was delayed by a month or later. We were charged a rate extension fee through Lenar mtg and were told that this would be credited back and it never was. I tried following up on this several times only to get delay after delay which leads me to the thought that it’s really just a stall tactic until I go away. This has been a terrible experience when it should’ve been a great one.

Terrible overall experience. The salesman, salesman’s supervisor, concierge, Construction Foreman all were horrible. The lack of follow through and returning calls was unacceptable. The title company returned half of my calls until I closed then stopped returning my calls. Ken, who did the warranty walk through and sign off was great. I’m a seasoned investor and not a first time home buyer which is what they are used to dealing with. They prey on the ignorance of the buyer and don’t put the buyer first.

Unorganized unaware poor work efforts

Terrible experience, first time home buyer. Our realtor was shocked and surprised, a lot of first for her. Weeks with out any info or communication, to then have these abrupt request. This and this needed within 48 hours. Every step of the way was a hassle and a pain. Even closing was a hassle. Home is great but the buying process was horrible. To the point that gave me second thoughts of purchasing.

My friend/real estate agent owned and sold many Lennar homes, so we had a first hand view into the process going into it. From start to finish communication was very poor and even worse within the Lennar team. Each individual we worked with was pretty good, but collectively it was a total mess. There are too many examples to give and I’ve already given Lennar so much of my time that I feel like I should be an employee. I’m convinced that our closing would not have happened when scheduled (Lennar cancelled 3 closings prior, last minute without warning - so yes we had already moved out of our house) if I hadn’t personally coordinated the team. Disappointing to say the least - I could write a book with probably 10 chapters with all the issues. As a business owner, husband to a pregnant wife, and dad of 4 kids 6 and under having to deal with all of this was really the last thing I needed. We’ve been in the house for almost 2 months now and there are still issues that haven’t been fixed (that should have been fixed by the 1st scheduled closing. ... Más

The customer service was terrible. We didn’t know what was going on from day to day. Representative didn’t want to answer phones

Throughout the whole process, they were threats of taking the house. They were just extortion of making us pay more money just because they felt like it forcing us to use their lender even though their lender would never respond to me sometimes at all or I will take four or five days. The sales rep was very short and disrespectful. All around a horrible customer service. They acted as if we did not matter and if something didn’t work out, they could just sell it to somebody else. They didn’t want to help us work through any issues. I just wanted to try to take the house from us.

The Lennar sales rep that we had gave off "manager's son" vibes. He was never at work so we never met him and every time we called he was doing some not work related activity during work hours. He got extremely frustrated with us when we took a few extra hours to review the one-sided sales contract and then took as long as he please because he was "driving horses down to Georgia." No sensitivity to the fact that we had concerns and were first-time homebuyers. Every time he called our phone, I got nerves in my stomach because he always felt like the villain in our story. The inspection was a joke. The gentleman was very nice and patient throughout the walkthrough but he made a lot of promises and kept none. When we did the final walkthrough, the house basically looked exactly as it did before the initial walkthrough. He had a lot of excuses and a lot of "you could get that stain out if you sand it down" type suggestions. We were left with the unfortunate situation that a lot of buyers are left with where you either delay closing and your movers and all the other plans you have, or you accept the house even with all it's faults. I have heard of cabinets falling off the walls of neighbors and every contractor we have had come try to fix a gap in our screened-in porch says they can't do anything about it. So we have constant bugs in our screened-in porch. Also, every single rubbing up against the wall will leave mark much more profound than it should. The paint is SUPER low quality and it shows. They also have no intention of updating their closing documents. For example, they gave us a sheet that said they would be giving us a one-time paint and drywall coupon that we could cash in within the first year to take care of nail-pops and other things like that. When I reached out to the maintenance team to inquire about the coupon I did not receive yet, they said they were no longer honoring that coupon. Super disappointing and sketchy. They also do super sketchy things when it comes to HOA employment to try to keep control from the owners as long as possible. Buying from Lennar will never leave a good taste in your mouth. They are a large builder and you are just a speck on their earnings report and you will like such. I know sometimes you fall in love with a house and you just have to make moves but having gone through the experience, I recommend watches the video warnings online about Lennar and heeding them. They are terrible and impersonal as everyone says. ... Más

We have purchased several homes in the past, and this by far has been our worst experience. First, we had many difficulties with the builders in order to get the issues fixed correctly in the home before the signing date. The representative who was assigned to us and who suppose to be handling these issues, made us feel like we were in the wrong for bringing them to his attention, and he tried to pursued us that these issues were not valid. We had to go over his head a couple of times in order to resolve them. Very disappointed in the customer service. As far as the actual closing, we had to do a lot of the leg work ourselves in order to get the closing completed. We literally had to go to Lennar's attorney's office twice because they were not returning our calls, which was within just a few days of closing. If we did not made these trips ourselves, our closing would have fallen to the next business week, which would have cost us a substantial amount of money and caused several other issues. This was extremely stressful and unnecessary. We will never buy from Lennar again, and urge people to do their homework before choosing a builder. On the upside, we do love our home and the location. ... Más

We had a terrible buying experience. The lack of communication was our main issue. Katelyn was passive aggressive and would speak to me as if I were a child because I would ask the wrong people questions. It was our first time purchasing a home and we had such a terrible experience after signing contract until we closed. Immediately after we closed we had sewage backing into our tubs/sinks, since it was an emergency it was promptly repaired. Our other issues have now taken 3 weeks to even get a response from their team. We do not have any pool access despite calling multiple times a week to their HOA. We had a safety issue that we brought up multiple times before closing and Lennar refused to fix the issue twisting our arms to comply and sign, our 3rd party inspector and Lennar’s concierge both agreed regarding our safety issue and supposedly they went to “higher ups” and it was denied. We have been living here 6 weeks now and last week they started construction on some lines in our front yard. I state some lines because they refused to tell us who they were or what they were fixing, we also had no prior written notice. We had a construction worker ring my doorbell at 7am and demanded I move my vehicle out of my driveway so they could work. They ended up going on my driveway after I left but left stains on my driveway and also broke a sprinkler head. I would ask for it to be repaired but have no idea who or what company is doing that construction. Other than those issues the home is apparently well built and I am lucky to have not had anymore issues, but as stated above we have only been here 6 weeks. ... Más

We used all Lamar’s preferred everything. Lender, lawyer, inspector, etc. we had to work with lennars sales manager Justin as our sales rep Phill was terrible at following thru and following up. They really led on the feeling that they were doing us a favor, we weren’t treated as a valuable customer. Phill was very inconsistent in things he’d say. We didn’t have an opportunity to choose anything in the new build of which he blamed us for not reminding him that we needed to choose & we missed our opportunity.BECAUSE WE DIDNT TELL HIM TO DO HIS JOB-his words. We purchased the home understanding there was no HOA. A month after we closed we received a letter/documents for a newly established team, not “hoa”, but a team and fee that will need to be paid yearly for our community. Minimal communication in the status of the home, the loan, and documents needed literally beyond the closing appointment. The lender was verifying employment info 30 min before our closing appointment. The entire time prior, our realtor had been following up and pushing our loan officer to complete tasks. Our closing appointment was pushed back 2x in the same day because their finance team had not completed their job. After the prolonged closing appointment (it was scheduled for 1pm, then 230pm) we finally got the keys at 530pm. We loaded up our excited and anxious kids to bring them to their new home for the first time. The entire packet they provided us with, keys and door codes was wrong and they left the garage openers in the home. We weren’t able to get into the house by any means. We reached out to ALL teams, even those who couldn’t do anything to help. Out of the entire team of people, all of one person responded. The receptionist. She got ahold of the builder who drove an hour out of his way mid dinner to let us into our home.We’ve been here two months now. Not one single person on the team has reached out to apologize or even acknowledge this issue. Our builder; Dillon, and his team were AMAZING and are literally the only reason we felt confident in moving forward with our purchase. We have family now relocating here as well-we absolutely 10000% will never work with Lennar again. They have zero principal and zero integrity. ... Más

Process was smooth but not to the expected range. No one handed over keys which is bad.

Did not receive mail keys until 2 months after closing. Customer service was horrible. Lazy individuals were responsible for the customer service aspect of this process

At first I was happy and seemed things started off smooth pre qual and home contract but later throughout the process became very sour and stressful. Our loan officer lacked communication through the entire process and failed to disclose certain information until day of closing. At times it felt earning our business wasn’t as important and we had to work harder to even make closing possible. I was happy with the home but not happy with the process. Communication could have been better and less feeling like I was purchasing a home from a used car dealership. I feel lennar is a great company but like any other company there’s always representatives that can ruin the experience. ... Más

This is the second lennar house and the experience Of this second purchase was not very professional Employees disappearing/ massive punch list/ difficult to get in touch with and frankly while staff was over stressed and hanging breakdowns under the stress On employee had breakdown during a handover mtg Not a pleasant experience

Paid top dollar for a home that was seven months later than promised and not top notch in the least. Had to get Lennar leaders involved. Subcontractors are lacking. Finally got a new construction manager who is doing his best to fix all the issues, but you don't get what you pay for. Pool and community areas are likely another year before complete if we are lucky. Still get to pay HOA fees. A lot of over promising and under delivering.

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

Information on website about available homes and prices of homes is not accurate. There is wide variations. Home selling agents don't seem to have the right info, and try to simply set aside any complaints/issues. Selling agent hung up on me when I raised an issue that I had. Inflexible schedules when final walk throughs are being scheduled.

This is our third property we have purchased, and it is our first with Lennar. We used Lennar title and Lennar mortgage hoping the process would be seamless as they are all connected. This was the worst home buying experience we have ever had. A ton of miscommunication and mistakes were made, and just a lack of ownership from all Lennar companies. They do not care about anything other than getting your money. They could not care less if the process goes smoothly, correctly or if you are satisfied. They only care about closing the deal and getting your money. And to top it off, on closing day our house was filthy! It had never even been cleaned! Would never use them again for anything and would not recommend. ... Más

Lennar communicated poorly during the building process. Lennar changed the flooring, did not install a window paid for in the contract. Lennar changed the ship lap around the fireplace and installed a cheaper material without informing me of the change.Lennar installed dead sod on the yard and has refused to correct the problem. My entire yard is dead. I have no lawn and Lennar refuses to install what I paid for in my contract. I would never build with Lennar again!

Customer Care follow up is lacking. my refrigerator needed to be replaced due to interior damage causing my produce to freeze repeatedly. I’m going on two months and I have still not received a replacement or any responses from LENNAR. Several other very simple repairs need to be completed (carpet repairs, electrical panel door latch repair, exterior paint touch up, cabinet door paint drips), but other than virtual meetings identifying the issues, no scheduling repairs or follow have been done. Very dissatisfied with Emily’s failure to return calls or follow up accordingly.

Our “realtor” never responded to our inquiries timely and pushed us to use Lennar lending after we communicated at least 10 times were going with Navy Fed. We gave the lender and chance and he was extremely disrespectful to my wife after she said she was not going with Lennar. Build quality is good and the building manager was good at fixing the issues we provided. Everyone seemed money hungry and if any decision we made would make someone lose money they would get obviously irritable. Would not recommend Lennar after that experience.

I was really excited to buy my first ever home but after the experience I’ve had with LENNAR I would have chosen differently. The experience I had with the mortgage team started off very rough and I experienced very poor communication and errors with the loan officer. I wanted to get a new home expecting that I would not have many issues however since moving in, that’s all I’ve had. Not to mention the cleanliness of the home upon move in was just unacceptable. I have spent days on my hands and knees scrubbing floors clean and covering many holes where caulking was missing to avoid pests. I would not buy LENNAR again nor would I recommend them. The positive thing about LENNAR is that they take the warranty claims seriously and they reach out pretty quickly to get things resolved. Since moving in 1.5 months ago I have had to submit 7 warranty items already. ... Más

Sales person was great and responsive. Quality of work was poor, responsiveness from construction team was poor. After closing for over 6 weeks we have not had sod on our yard. We financed through Lennar and they later sold the loan to a different company. Shortly after the loan was sold, my wife and I both experienced identity theft, where we both had letters stating that credit cards were applied for by us that we were not aware of. We are very careful with not sharing private information and have not applied for credit cards in over 5 years. Some credit cards were approved and had thousands of dollars charged to the cards that we did not open. ... Más
