    Lennar's warranty claims are unreliable. Buyer beware. They make many promises upfront but fail to deliver on the backend.They've caused flooding and erosion in neighboring yards, affecting three other properties. This issue has persisted for over two months without resolution. When they replaced dead patches in our grass, the new sod died despite being watered 2-4 times per day and receiving record amounts of rain. One customer service agent assured me someone would come to replace it, but another agent later cancelled my request, falsely claiming I hadn't watered enough. This is untrue, as I had diligently watered the sod and it had been raining heavily.

    Telecommunication box right next to driveway, with longer face facing street.  No other house in this neighborhood has this issue.

    Great floor plan selection. They tell you they might be able to do stuff, prior to signing, but in reality, they deny any request, even if it is to add an outlet on an existing circuit, 3 ft away before construction has broken ground. Got the Washburn with extension on the 3rd stall so I can park my bigger vehicle there and they know that. Guess what? They allowed the utility company to orientate the telecommunication box so that it would be closest to the driveway. The cherry on top is that no other house in the neighborhood has the box orientated this way. The construction manager is barely responsive and it is apparent when there is no phone number in his email signature. Perhaps it is just Settler's Ridge site, or perhaps this is how all Lennar sites are. Whichever it may be, I would highly recommend others look at other builders. Yes we are buying a new house, but it doesn't feel like buying a home. If it weren't for location and $15k deposit, I would've ditched this builder in a heart beat. On top of that, the garage concrete cracked outside the relief lines and a hole in the wall was made by a door knob slamming into it.

    Worst building experience for a first time homebuyer. Multiple issues at closing, and no responses after closing to fix said issues.

When we met with them I explained that we are looking at building the same house as their model house we walked through with the same upgrades. First off Josh told us that the lot we wanted to build on was $10,000 more than the model lot even though it was smaller and in the middle of the development. He then went through all the upgrades in the model house and "accidently" forgot to tell us that the fireplace was an upgrade. When I told Josh that the cabinets were an upgrade he told me I was wrong, but yet it was listed on MLS as an upgrade. His MLS listing also said that a fully sodded lot and irrigation system was included but apparently that was also false advertising. Josh said that he did not know that was in the description and continued to talk in circles trying to see how much money he could get out of us. Josh's direct quote was, "This is a cut throat business and it's first come first serve." Josh would not even quote us a price for the house we wanted to build but yet that was what the initial meeting was for. It's too bad that Amelia, who was very nice and professional, has to work for such an egotistical, arrogant, person who I feel knows very little about construction and how to treat potential customers.

We had been very happy with the home until we discovered that the builder falsified records when reporting and certifying our New Construction Energy Code Compliance Certificate. We were told that our AC unit was a 3.5 ton when in fact what was installed was actually a 3 ton unit which was not compliant with the heating loss/gain calculations which were noted directly on the certificate. Hanson Builders failed to acknowledge their wrongdoing which has cost us thousands of dollars over the years in electricity bills. Hanson is still claiming the onus is on us, the homeowners, for reporting an inaccuracy on documents which were submitted, certified and approved by the City of Blaine. We took care of our HVAC and had no reason to suspect that Hanson Builders would lie to us about the sizing of our AC unit. Sadly, we are now left to wonder what other inaccuracies were slid under the radar by unsuspecting homeowners who placed their trust and reliance on a home builder who had a seemingly untarnished reputation. Hanson Builders has lost our trust and will be reported.

    My life was like a whirlwind…read more I was married in October, found out we were moving from Washington state to Minnesota about a week later, went on a house hunting trip compliments of his new company Thanksgiving weekend, then we moved in December. The relocation package assigned us a Realtor named Nita who I will someday write a review on. ( She was awesome ) and we were given four days to quote find a house. Knowing absolutely nothing about the state of Minnesota other then the most freezing unimaginable winters (we flew in the day after Thanksgiving in 2010 which they claim was the worst winter ever ). Anyway, I could write a book about the painful cold here, but you people from Minnesota already know about them while others simply could not possibly understand. My husband and I had absolutely no clue what city whatsoever to want to reside in, so we saw no less then 100 houses within 4 days basically all over the place. ( No joke ) We had a major list with stars and notes on each house we looked at and we had a list with the top 5 homes that we personally liked the most. Well, the model home in Plymouth by Hanson builders was both of our number 1 choice having different second and third choices from each other.. Hanson homes have the most amazing functional and spacious floor plans. We worked with one of the builders reps named Lisa who was so helpful and was always quick with an answer to the many questions that we had. Our Realtor wrote up an offer and it was accepted. We actually had the same plan built on a lot that overlooked a really cool large pond with fountains, so we had the opportunity to pick all of the paint colors, granite, carpet or any additional upgrades we were interested in. Their person who was in charge of that was Nancy and she had tremendous helpful ideas on coordinating the right granite with tile, color choices etc.. They definitely have professional people who seem to truly care about their jobs that work for them. We did see many Hanson floor plans and they are actually pretty similar in many ways from the other. My conclusion for that is this. They have really perfected their floor plans so why change a good thing too much. If your thinking about buying a home, I would highly recommend you setting up an appointment to walk through them and see them for yourselves. They pay attention to detail and although there were a few little problems in the end, they took care of it right away to our satisfaction. The only reason why I did not give Hanson builders five stars was during the final walk thru, it was really not as clean as we would have expected. We did mention this and we were told that they just routinely do a spot clean. So here we move into this beautiful home and we had to do a deep clean prior to the actual move. That part was a little disappointing. But the end result, we are absolutely thrilled with each and every Hanson floor plan and we felt like all of the pieces fit together with all of the help from those who worked with us.

Positives: They were very courteous and accommodating to work with during the planning phases and ensured that all choices and designs were complete before the building process started, which helped in preventing delays. Negatives: However, they use budget friendly options when purchasing products for your home, such as counter tops. Our quartz countertops absorbs stains and are very porous. Having had experience with quartz countertops in the past, I never had ones that took on stains that were difficult to remove and had very little shine after polishing. This is one of many examples. Cabinets are of poor quality a well. Their options and choices for countertops, cabinets and items such as knobs and handles are very limited. It appears to be a cost cutting measure for them. The choice for toilets were not very good but very expensive at the same time; not enough hours in the day to list all of my concerns and problems with warranty issues. We had a major problem with our foundation which they refused to acknowledge was their error. If you are looking to have a good quality, well built home, look elsewhere.
