Lennar Homes - Home Buyers Beware! | Sloppy Workmanship, Broken Appliances, Dead Grass, And More!

Is there a warranty on parts and workmanship ? I’m looking at Lennar in El Dorado Hills and many reasons not to buy but like the community . Possible changes can I make . Its from first owner 7 year old house and owner is informing of small handyman details I can do myself. History show houses value stable and increases in time.

Hi Jim, I'm speechless. My parents bought a townhouse and had some similar problems as you. We ended up fixing the issues for them. You still can see nails and screws popping through the dry wall no matter how many times we repair it, it happens again. My parents bought in 2006. We talk to people who bought more recently because they keep building more and more townhomes. Today problems are much worse than when my parents bought.

[@ArtOfHealth]

They are now building a huge development in Williston, Florida as of June 2023. It is called Country Home Estates-Luxury Homes, starting in the 200s is on their sign. Very impressive "looking" but as you know, the devil is in the detail. I have done everything from basement/foundation to walls, sheetrock, painting to roof and construction clean-up. Some employees and contractors are simply shoddy workers. Zero pride in craftsmanship! Thanks for sounding the shohar.

Sorry you had this poor experience. We purchased a brand new Lennar home in 2022 in Southern California but our experience was wonderful. When we did our walk through, Lennar rep noted all the defects we found and they fixed all the issues after closing. Our customer care rep Andy was very responsive. The workmanship of our home was top notch but the home cost over $1.2 million. So not all Lennar homes are like yours. Where is your home located?

A Lennar neighborhood is going up in the upper part of Menifee CA so I decided to check it out--even from the exterior it's a horror show. Gaps in the wooden porch and slopped over with paint to try and hide the mess... and little paint nicks around the doors and wall plates. Not to mention the houses are indeed bigger, but a lot of wasted space. Who in their right mind wants a loft the size of 3 bedrooms? Doesn't take an expert to see how shoddy Lennar's craftsmanship is.

Lennar and others could improve the finished product and buyers experience by quadrupling the budget they have for painters and then enforcing professional painting and caulking work. The Painters have the ability to single handedly ruin a new home. And they also ruin other tradesmen work. They ruin cabinets, Floors, appliances, driveway pavers, windows. Costing thousands of dollars to fix. The painters that you see on Lennar projects are the worst. And when you complain they will send a more incompetent painter to make things worse and spill all over the place. Why does this occur? Because Lennar pays way below market rates for painters. And they get what the pay for.

[@JimORearsWackyWorld]

Thanks for watching, Greg!

[@davidwatchesyoutube247]

Lennar is the WORST. They tried to get out of my roof sagging in my last new home. Roof started to sag 3” - they said it was cosmetic and weren’t going to do anything about it - got a 3rd party out to inspect it - they discovered 3 broken trusses as well as 3 others that were broken but repaired by nailing in boards to sister those causing the roof to slowly fail and it was only going to get worse. Cosmetic - lol. They then replaced the roof because I was going to sue - Not just that, the roof started to leak around the chimney other side of the house - and it was due to flashing around the chimney… nailed through metal flashing without proper sealing - caused the wall to become soggy and paint and stuff bubbling as the drywall got soaked - they then came out to replace it and had to tell them WTF are you doing replace the insulation too!!! They are the worst. We got rid of that FN house and went and bought a new home from another builder - TRUE story.

[@davidwatchesyoutube247]

Oh…. Forgot to mention…. The floors started cracking and exterior stucco started cracking - I left - old neighbors told me class action was opened against them in that neighborhood against lennar - something they are probably quite used to by now for the way they handle stuff.

То что вы при покупке сэкономите в дальнейшем потратите намного больше денежных средств. К сожалению это везде так.

Purchasing a home from any House Builder it comes from different categories: #1 Spec or inventory home, #2 future construction. It seems you went with the future construction. I wonder if buying a home that is already finished, allows you to look and compare more choices and pick, and then have home inspector to check. I wasn't able to give you a thumb up, you failed to mention where was this, what state, or a recap. Did you ending buying the home, or refuse to sign contract due to failing home buyer's spectation.

Thanks for watching! This was in Orlando, Florida. It was a future build. There’s another video on this channel about what a nightmare that was, as well, dealing with their sales and mortgage team. We did go ahead and purchase due to a variety of circumstances you can see in the other video. At least, after about 8 months, they had repaired most of the things that were wrong. Now… who knows what may be unseen behind the walls, but cosmetics were finally completed.

Dumbest comment ever. They ALL use hispanic labor. I've never seen a white guy or black guy on a roof...

Thats BS, ive worked with mexicans/hispanic on ultra high quality homes and they've done an amazing job. Blame Lennar homes for paying very cheap. Cheap labor = fast work with no quality.
