Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

Purchase this model only for because of the layout and having my mom close. Excellent floor plan. Quality of work and materials used could be better. Compromise only for floorplan layout and lot size.

Very hard a times to get responses to our questions. Being in central time zone we would get information so late in day we couldn’t get things sorted out before people were gone. Not knowing whom to contact at times it seemed like we were directed to a lot of different people that we hadn’t really talked to. Easier to deal with 1-2 individuals for us.

DO NOT buy from LENNAR! They are the MOST unreliable, RACIST and worst people to work with. We are first time home buyers and they made the process extremely difficult for us to purchase a home. We also felt that some of the people involved in our home buying process were very prejudiced and racist and they contributed to the difficulties that we experienced throughout the process. They did EVERYTHING they could to try to ensure that we didn’t get a home. Their loan officers are THE WORST! Please save yourself the heartache. Their homes are cheap and you end up having to take care of things that should’ve been taken care of during the walk-through and after. ... More

I'm EXTREMELY disappointed in the quality of materials and labor . I bought this Townhome because' Lennar' was the builder. Ryan Homes has comparable prices and locations but I chose this because Lennar had such a good name in the building industry. My other home here in FL was not a Lennar but my dad's home, built 2003, is Lennar and the quality of his home is excellent, I would NOT recommend Lennar to anyone these days. They do not build anything. They sub it all out and the contractors get paid for the job, not the quality of the work. -- Granite countertop seems are very obvious. -- Cheapest CERAMIC tile you can buy .. but when I asked b4 i bought, they weren't sure if it was porcelain or not. -- Shower rod fell during first shower. -- Kitchen corner cabinets have no top so grease and dirt fall to the base of it .. they should have put no bottom then, at least it would be able to be cleaned.. etc, etc. Just cheap materials used , lazy contractors, every corner cut to save a dollar ... ...

The exterior finish is good.The interior finishing was poorly. Items like paint, trim, interior door finish, flooring, concrete work and a host of other smaller items as a builder I didn't appreciate having had to take care of myself.

Jeremy was great to work with. He always responded quickly to my text and emails. Christie was very helpful and did her best to take care of our concerns.

House construction and layout are perfect, the experience with Lennar answering questions or concerns is beyond expectations. Great service! The seller walked us through all the steps.

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.

Our home purchase experience with Lennar was good overall. We had a bit of tug of war during the initial negotiations however once that was sorted out we definitely got a great value for the price paid. Our salesperson Taria and construction manager Cheyenne were very communicative and responsive to all of our questions, requests and concerns. Even after closing their warranty team has been very hands on. Our only concern at this time is that there are several homes within the neighborhood that were sold to foreign investors and being rented immediately for low income housing. This decision was made in poor choice as it creates the risk of decreasing the overall neighborhood value. People don’t work hard to purchase a home over half a million dollars to end up living amongst thugs and lowlives. Sell only to people interested in actually living in the neighborhood and want to see it thrive. ... More

The experience has been an experience you do not want as a homeowner. It started with discouraging you from having a Realtor and getting a Lawyer. Get your home inspected as there are many flaws and some areas not completed to standards. You must take your time during the initial inspection of your home to include the outside landscaping area. I had dead trees and when request of replacement was done Lennar stated that landscaping is not included. Ensure your irrigation system works!!! Tiles in the home chipped and cracked not replaceable by the warranty, do not understand this!!! Check your electrical outlets. Last minute planted grass in the back of house was in horrible condition!!! Crown mouldings inconsistent with incomplete pieces in some areas in the house. Caulking not completed in bathroom areas!!! No peep hole on door!!! Ring doorbell didn’t work and I had to replace it on my own!!! Check that Ring light is spinning for set up. Check cabinets as some are misaligned and screws not completely screwed in, you can see gaps in the kitchen cabinets doors. Bricks pavers were loosed and cracked outside!!! Cracked tiles on roof!!! There are too many things to list as we have been discovering them after moving in!!! Just take your time when inspecting the home!!! ... More

Constuction Project manager Richard Very helpful .

This was my first home and I love it. Lennar is great

The worst part of our buying experience was the mortgage approval process. I will never submit to that again. The house was already completed, so we just had walk-through and punch list issues. We like the house so far, but follow-up is the Achilles heel of most builders.

Our Lennar real estate agent was Nicole . She was an excellent customer representative for Lennar . She was extremely knowledgeable about all the aspects of the building process. She made the complete home building and the purchase of our new home and enjoyable experience. The one negative experience that I have is with the manager of the HOA in the Medley section where we purchased. . Her name is Jessica and I have never encountered a person in the role of a property manager that doesn’t return phone calls or emails that she decides are not worth responding to . I had to report her to the upper management of Lennar builders to get a response from her . I don’t know who she knows that helped her get her position but they didn’t do Lennar builders any favors. I’m sorry but it had to be said . ... More

So, there were multiple cracks on the masonry of our Lanai, it was hard to ignore. The construction manager kept saying it was within code. We had to put up quite the fuss, including consulting a lawyer to get them to fix the cracked Lanai on our supposed new house. Since moving in, one of our house numbers fell off. 3 out of the 4 house numbers were glued on instead of being nailed down. It's still not fixed. First, we needed to put in a service request online. Then we had to set up a virtual appointment to show them the issue ( only available during weekdays during work hours mind you) and then will need to schedule the actual appointment to get the work done. So yeah, they don't make it easy to get help to fix their mistakes. ... More

Warranty Sharmin builder Travis both of very bad Response too late and all the yelling me I’m coustomer

The house is great. A few issues when we did our orientation. There was a great deal of grout haze on the floor that I had to pay to get cleaned. Not cool. Also, the outside paint on our main wall had alot of streaks. I happen to know that the builders had men painting in the rain. And we are hearing water dripping when we run our sinks upstairs. I believe we have a leak. It hasn't come through the ceiling yet.

Too many different places that I had to ask questions from. Things need to be streamlined! I was never told a lot of the rules and expenditures I would have. I did not receive any paperwork and was never placed on certain lists. It was a very stressful situation for me. No guidance at all. I am told it probably happened because I paid out right and never went to a closing. Was done on my phone. The paperwork did not get to the different departments. As far as fixing any issues ; the staff has been excellent. Checking even to make sure the job is done. Excellent experience with Josh and Hailey. PLZ stream like all the payments to 1 monthly billing and then they can divide it up to all the different companies. ... More

Closing took over 10 hours, delayed 4 times while I waited in a U Haul. Nothing was fixed that was asked for. None well return phone calls. 2 months later we still can't get mail. Workers speed up and down the road plus trash keeps blowing in the yard. Can't reach HOA about rules.

LENNAR sales agent James was very helpful, walked me thorough the new home purchase process, help resolve all the issues and concerns raised. Overall review -10 out of 10.

Great home buying experience. Excellent customer service! Mark was amazing

I thought they did a great job in the beginning of the process very responsive until the week of closing. Once I closed - moving from another state - with no idea of who to contact for utilities HOA etc. So disorganized and frustrating. Once that was figured out, all is good. Love the place so far! I did go through Lennar Mortgage and they did a great job!

Second time buying a home and this time around It was not very pleasant. With the exception of Tee the everyone one else lacked good communication. From Ben the builder to Karlene my phone calls were never returned or emails answered. Going over weeks.

The closing paperwork and communications at the end was terrible.
