there are 2 return in your function.. second one will never execute — undefined_variable

I don't have any idea about laravel but in any programming language.. The first return statement that is executed will terminate the function and its value will be used — undefined_variable

Try changing the variable name in compact function

public function get() {
    $usertype = DB::table('user_type')->get();
    return View::make('/home')->with(compact('usertype'));
    return $usertype;

}

And also remove the second return statement as it will never execute.
