Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

Overall, we have had a great experience with Lennar. We had “one bad day” on the day we moved in but after that, everything has gone smoothly. We HAVE recommended Lennar and unless something drastic happens, will continue to do so in the future.

Buying a new home is stressful and that is not because of Lennar, it's the process. Having said that, everyone I dealt with was professional and patient. Both walk-throughs went well and issues were addressed promptly.

I wasn't here for the repair work, but my parents were. They told me the workers were very nice and professional.

We have been in the home for about 2 months and so far haven’t had any issues, and any that we did have were taken cared of very quickly

good builder but have a problem with their tile company. Lennar tiled my whole house minus the bedrooms and was promised that at least 2 full cases of tile in the dye lot would be left in house prior to closing. Owner of tile company. John Grimmer who i spoke to personally, said he bring the day after closing which never happened. I offer to buy additional cases at retail price to have more tile on hand in case of a sub surface crack or any damage after closing. Many months later the warranty people made him bring tile which unfortunately does not match. These types of sub contractors take away from the good name of this reputable builder. All of the other subs i have dealt with have been excellent except this one. ... More

It will be great when the pool and all of the construction, including the park across the street, are completed.

We loved what the community offers and liked the house and lot right away. Buying the house was much more intense and demanding with all the new requirements. The sales agent was great, as were the finance people, although the pressure to complete the mortgage application was strong. The walk through was called a "celebration" which was confusing, and there was little or no give on items we wanted addressed. I would have appreciated help with interior paint. I was disappointed that most bathroom drawers were fakes, and there is no medicine cabinet. Mostly I would have appreciated that the interior could have been painted with some color. Overall we are happy with the house, and community. The tile flooring is lovely. ... More

Good points: the exterior walls of the property are made of all concrete. I've only had minor issues which were repaired quickly. Lennar could have done a better job prepping me for the move-in. No one told me that I needed to be present for the walk through and I couldn't close until I did. No one told me that cable was included with my HOA so I spent hours with Spectrum getting it set up. This is all the responsibility of the sales office. They need to get organized. They wasted a lot of my time.

Over all my experience has been good. I want to say how good the customer service has been GREAT. Every time I have had an issue the response has been right on. I understand that everything takes time to complete. I am wondering when the fence will be finished so I am able to fence the rest of my yard. My neighbors all have dogs so I am in need of a fence. Thanks Charlotte

Not quite like buying a house off of Amazon in terms of convenience, but just about as close as you can get when dealing with Title, proof of income, etc... Honestly I don't think I could have done better with this one, even after the purchase I have had these guys help out with small fixes, would highly recommend!

I loved that everything was included.

We are pleased with our new home. Of course there were a few minor issues, but each has been addressed as we have brought it to Lennar's attention. We have repainted most of the walls in something other than boring white. We have ripped out the bedrooms carpeting and put in vinyl plank flooring. Shelves will go up in the villa and garage. Neighborhood is great, clean, and quiet. The host of activities available to us is Extremely nice. Haven't had a chance yet to take advantage of the Lagoon or Clubhouse area, but we will when we complete moving in and prepping our existing house for sale. Lots of work that we primarily do ourselves. ... More

I hope that communication will be better than that for my next purchase

The house is built very well overall. However, the completion was rushed and the walk throughs were a set time without asking us our needs. The Forman, Cass was great but the burden to complete the 7-page punch list was all his and he was beardly able completed most of it before the closing the same day. The Title company was great to work with and flexible to our needs. We have built four other homes in our history that in included two with U.S. Homes one Rutenberg and one DR. Horton. The quality of the inside of our new house is about a 4 about out of 5 and the same as Rutenberg. A few problems of poor workmanship and poor-quality show that was very disappointing. A few doors inside the house were hung like a 6th grader did the work. Some of the floor tiles were chipped and the grout in the on-suite shower mistake (chair on wrong side) repair was low quality and slopy work. The air unit was not balanced and the was causing us to have high humidity. The warranty person Jeff (great person) from the air company is working on the problem, Why the closet door for the inside air unit is not a louvered door is a poor design mistake that I have not seen in 40 years of new home builds. The landscaping is overdone and we cannot get out of our cars parked on the driveway without stepping on a plant, Although the grass is growing in now and look very good in the front, the amount of dead grass squares left by the people did the work is a just case pure laziness. If the square is dead when installing it, put a live/green one down in its place. Would I recommend a Lennar home to other, YES, but common scene would say slow down the process a little. Do not put the burden on the costumer / your client by saying "Oh just put in a work order and it will get fixed after you close". That is the perception that is given to the new homeowners. ...

Jeff and Yumiko were absolutely amazing. Our remote closing was a breeze. Marie lacked communication with us during underwriting and came off as rude in multiple emails with how things were worded. We were excited to take a photo with the congratulations sign on the garage but it was taken down before we got half way done with our final walkthrough. While other houses that sold after ours have had the sign up for multiple days. If we were to buy another home through Lennar we would gladly do so again.

very please with customer service, Very quick to response to issues

As a first time homebuyer, my experience with staff was very satisfying. I feel I received a great value and would recommend it to anyone to shop with Lenar homebuilders. My only issue was I expected to close on June or July 2024 but the house was completed sooner and I was forced to close February 28 of 24. Vivian, my g Guide was very helpful and gave me attention at my calling. It is a pleasant experience to have someone be so attentive.

Good experience overall! Very responsive to customer queries. Good quality property! This is our second purchase already!

At first I was not 100% sure buying from Lennar, as I had done my research and the reviews on the Lennar homes weren't as good….BUT… the experience was great! From the representative to the walkthrough with the builder. So far we are happy with our home. It will never be 100% perfect but I am pleased with it and most importantly I can still reach out to the sales representative about any questions, she responds and is very helpful.

Overall experience was very positive.

We bought a villa in December 2022 and were told that our move in date was late June, but that was changed to late August. For a second time it was changed to late October. We ended up purchasing a slightly larger home for a higher price. This experience put u under a lot of stress, but we are happy in our new home.

The experience overall was good. A lot of research help me understand the processes of buying a home, before I actually went through the process. Do not inquire about any home without a buyers agent.

Well overalll but closing and some of the to do list

It was extremely convenient to have new appliances included with the home such as washer, refrigerator and stove. One downside is not being able to customize home.

Quality is a little better than average. Construction supervisor was excellent. Don't let them rush you to closing. Make sure all of your quality and construction issues are completed first.
