Lennar Reviews in Sarasota Bradenton, FL

We moved into Prosperity Lakes Adult Community from Pinellas County. We were looking for a new construction retirement home with a fun active life style. The home is so well built and designed. We love the Sunburst layout with all white cabinets and tile floors through out most of the house outside the 2 bedrooms. Large bathrooms, oversized garage and an open great room living area we fell in love with! We also love the turn key aspect of the home as well. HOA does all the outside maintenance. We are so happy with our new home!

My experience with Lennar Morgage is very bad which result in I don’t wanna buy any Lennar house any more. The loan documents have a lot issue and it took us a lot time to get the clarity we need. Steve our loan officer is not responsive and not a problem solver. He kept throw our question away. We have consistently have frustration feelings that don’t wanna continue any more. A lot steps that only let us know at the last minute and keep push us to take action immediately without any turn around time. The stuff should be more efficient and give customers enough time to take actions

Check everything before you buy

Overall, the home itself, the loan process, and the title experience went smoothly. However, we are extremely displeased with the HOA and ARC process. The documentation provided to homeowners states that we can choose between PVC or black aluminum rail fencing, yet our applications for the aluminum rail style have been repeatedly denied without a clear, consistent explanation. This was one of the most important factors when purchasing our home, and had we known that the option listed in the HOA materials would not actually be allowed, we would have reconsidered our purchase. We are also experiencing inconsistent and shifting reasons for the denial of our gutter installation. Meanwhile, it has been two months since settlement and, due to these delays, the mulch on the side of our home is washing away with every rainfall. The lack of clarity and consistency in the HOA approval process has been the most frustrating part of our experience. ... More

When we went to buy our home it was contingent on us selling our other home.The person buying our home was a developer and kept changing our closing dates for a total of 7 times.We already had a closing date set and our realtor had to keep calling Jessica at Lennar to change our dates.Jessica was fantastic assuring us we wouldn't lose the house and not to worry.Everyone else involved from Lennar was also great switching everything around to accommodate us.Overall it was a great experience dealing with everyone in such a stressful situation.I would recommend Lennar to anyone.

I had a good overall experience with Lennar and the Condo with one minor issue and one major issue that I never received a satisfactory response. Respectfully Bob T.

Things went well with buying but all the computer docs kind of a pain.

Wonderful experience with Lennar title and selling team

I love my house is a great place to live and all the Neighbor are very friendly

purchase went smoothly, appliances are all GE but of lower quality, room switches are not dimmer friendly

Had minor issues when it comes to warranty repair which they took care of it after I notify them with no issues easy process on the lennar app very professional and excellent customer service.

There were just too many missing accessories, unfinished items, broken tiles. And no opportunity to give input into appliances or needed vents, such as in the garage.

Pleased with responsiveness of teams.

they were helpful and caring

David A did an excellent job obtaining a mortgage loan for me at a good rate. Matthew M was very attentive to making sure things were done correctly

My experience with the sales person & my superintendent were excellent. They were quick to respond, professional & caring. The only 2 complaints I have are 3 of my appliances were damaged and the ceiling has so many tape lines in different rooms that will have to be redone, which will make a mess in my new house. The drywall company is terrible.

Great experience and very helpful and thoughtful

My experience with Lennar has been awful. I was given misinformation from my Lennar mortgage representative on several occasions making the process a nightmare. Then I was promised that a list of items would be completed by the builder prior to my virtual walk-through. They were not, but promised to be done prior to closing. It's now been six weeks since I closed and I'm still waiting for many things to be fixed. I'm frustrated and very unhappy with Lennar.

Very disappointed with craftsmanship & quality of materials. Very sloppy & dirty outside. Dirty elevator & stairs.

I had money coming back that I desperately needed instead im in my new home struggling. I was told up to the day I closed I was getting money back...instead I had tor fork out money. IT is sad that I had fork out money after being told I was fine and that I would get My deposit at closing....now I'm behind on everything and just moving in. I barely got my lights on in my name. I'm still very sad and disappointed this situation has really put me into a bind. I now may be late on my 1st House pmt due to this set back caused by YOU guys. My closing was moved 4 times extended by you guys because you all did not want to do a dry closing. The money was there but you guys continued to charge me daily despite being told it would be taken care of by the seller. well it wasn't and it caused me to suffer a hardship at the closing table, and it's causing me to still struggle to get that money back, I now have no money for emergencies. I wanted to close the LANIA area in like all of my neighbors have now I can't I missed the special. I am now doing a 2 hr commute and questioning was all of this even worth it and starting to have regrets. No one cares or watched out for the little man..I was a victim because I had to wait on the DP assistance and then penalized for it after being told that I was fine. please audit my account Thanks ...

This is the second home I have bought from this builder. I am very satisfied with the home and quality of it.

Ted was great very responsive. Noah was also great and so helpful. JJ chef at tiki bar is a gem.

The process was smooth and easy from start to closing. Price was right and everything has gone great.

Watch out for a salesman showing up right after your closing and trying to sell you a water treatment system. I paid $2500 more than my neighbor and was charged too much on the interest. Don't fall for the story he has.

We closed on our Lennar house on July 10, 2025. Our Lennar sales guy was great! We feel like we got a good house with a great view for a great price!…..however, after closing, we noticed many shortcomings in the quality of our home. All the walls were painted with a cheap commercial grade paint, so plan on painting ALL your walls. Lennar doesn’t furnish toilet paper holders, towel bars etc! They also don’t install gutters along the back or sides of your house, only the front! Within 6 weeks of closing, we’ve already have a roof leak. At least Lennar is sending a roofer right away, but we feel the quality of workmanship is subpar! Also, when you belong to an HOA, you have to abide by THEIR rules. This can be a good thing, however, if you want to change your front door color to a different color than what’s provided, you have to pick something in the Associations color scheme and get it approved. Driving down our street, and thru new home buildings, can be tricky, as there are many trucks, supplies & garbage to navigate around. But hopefully this will be gone in a couple of months. Being a person who has a construction background, I just expect a little more quality when buying a new home! So that’s why the title of my review, is the jury is still out???? ... More
