Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

Es una empresa responsable ,pero tienen que ponerle más ojo a las personal quienes arreglan los detallles al final porque son poco cuidadoso y ordinarios ,pero en cuanto a la calidad de los materiales excelentes.

No construction updates, unfinished items still after closing, lost keys by construction crew. Phone calls to construction manager and sales representatives go unanswered.

Experience was overall great. Everything went according to plan. Home was delivered in a timely manner with just a few issues but that’s goes with any new home. Just wish the builder would have a pest control plan worked into their warranty at least for the first six months of ownership. Living here in Florida these bugs are no joke. Second new Lennar home and they didn’t disappoint!!

Repairs take too long. Have to wait for workers to arrive. Disrupts the day waiting on workers when you have things to do.

Disappointed! Not Lennar Standards! Average Florida quality

We closed on May 30, 2023, still waiting for the house keys, still waiting for the floors to be cleaned. (glue smeared on the floors) We have still not moved in, so hoping before July 30th the floors will be cleaned and we will have our house keys. Just in case I just bought a floor steam cleaner to get the job done. Also wondering how the hurricane shutters work..They need to have something like a New Home Ambassador to help the new owner and answer our questions. Like when is the trash pickup?

Make sure you are getting the whole truth about the fees that are charged here. There are 3 different accounts: 1 - $180.00 the second fee is $237.01 the third B is $112.00. We were told everything was covered under the $180.00. But it isn’t so buyer be aware of what you are told. Next time I will get everything in writing with signatures. Trust me no one wants to make this mistake right.

Working with Lennar has been fantastic from start to close meeting timeframes to close and builders completing work. Notably, there were some issues with the craftsmanship in the home, which may be a result of meeting those aforementioned timeframes, and there was a broken pipe in the wall that leaked all over the garage and bottom floor, a broken sprinkler system, and a few other issues found, when or shortly after moving in. These issues were quickly remedied with the warranty requests and the home is finally to what we would expect.

This home was overrated, over priced and structurally changed from the model home. Therefore it is not worth mentioning how bad this experience has been. Quality and workmanship is livable and ok with final product, but not good or great. Many items need to be fixed or adjusted. I am concerned how it will be after one full year. This is not the normal quality standard in prior build purchases from Lennar. Unfortunately I will not recommend Lennar nor buy Lennar in the future.

I am very disappointed in the quality of work. There were so many issues with the house prior to my closing it was a very sad day by no means not a happy day. And still dealing with issues that should have been done right before closing. I would not refer anyone to buying a Lennar home in this community. Everyone that I have had the pleasure meeting has said that they have had nothing but problems. This is not a good thing coming from others and the workers say we do what we get paid for what does that tell you. I have had to spend a lot out of my own pocket to get the work done the right way. ... More

Do Not Close until ALL building issues are signed off on. Dina is unresponsive and unqualified as a construction manager. Trades are not managed or construction work verified via a project plan Cosmetic defects are considered not important and are totally ignored. The amount of work order tickets that are required to be opened as a result of sales and Dina's non-responsiveness and follow-up is a full time job that falls on the shoulders of the buyer/home owner. HOA requires that Spectrum is utilized for TV/Internet, however Construction manager does not confirm or verify that the lines/cables are installed and working. It is necessary to use the internet for the home security system as well as submitting work orders; however, with no cables/lines this becomes a frustrating nightmare of "not my job" from Lennar. Appliances are not protected from dents and scratches and Lennar does not correct damaged appliances. Carpet and flooring are not protected while trades stucco, paint and others all walk through with dirty footwear, some wearing workbooks and others in slides and slippers. Drywall and Painters are part of an inexperienced 3rd and 4th party trade that Lennar contracts with and does not manage. Bayonet Plumbing does not have anyone pressure test the plumbing lines or verify their work. Associates are right out of trade school with zero experience and interior water damage becomes an issue and Lennar does not take responsibility for. Also, be aware, Lennar has the "right" per the selling contract to change ANYTHING without notice to the buyer by the sales team. This is inclusive of color of paint, tiles, cabinets, counters and even the structure of doors, closets and kitchen/shower/bathroom fixtures. Beware as Lennar is not the #1 home builder in Tampa Bay for a reason. If you should decide to go with Lennar for you next home, do not allow them to rush you through walk throughs and closings. ...

Overall, the buyer needs to provide significant oversight to the quality product. We had over 96 items on the original punch list which happened approximately four weeks prior to closing. On the day of closing there still over 25 items not taken care of. Lennar needs to implement better quality control procedures.

House was not done at closing but was forced to close with no recourse. Once closed, was told to call the warranty depth. House was barely clean at closing. I still get emails requesting a signature on a document that I previously had signed 2 times. I've previously purchesed 2 new construction homes and thus was by far the worst. Not happy at all.

Our experience continues to be exhausting and frustrating. We had a 9 page punch list on the first walk through which was not addressed by the closing date. Being in the house for almost two months we are still waiting to get things corrected that should have never been issues if the builder used common sense. The issue costing us, is our AC is not working properly through out the house costing us high electrical bills. Light switches did not work, had to paint the entire house inside and out, seals on all windows had to be replaced, still waiting on hardware for the hurricane shutters. There is not enough staff to complete these issues for all the homes. We were never clear who the contact person was, the warranty person, contract manager, virtual Lennar contact (have two of them) or to reach out to the subcontractors directly. We are at the point where we don't want to say anything, for concerns the repair will make it worse, like matching the tile that needs to be replaced. We were not left extra tile of the same lot incase repairs are needed. I have designed and built homes before retiring, and the biggest issue is the building manager or general contractor is not managing the quality as the house is being built. If they corrected these errors as the house is going up, it's more cost effective then repairing after build is complete. ... More

The was a huge pressing for closing. Townhome was delivered with several issues. Two months after the closing, there are issues open yet. Do not recommend.

I am very disappointed in the quality of the kitchen cabinets. Not enough space and set too high.

I love the process and may buy again when there is good deal

We purchased our Lennar home in May, and when we did our final walk through a number of items were still not finished or were finished with poor workmanship. We were assured the items would be finished before our celebratory walk and they weren’t. I have found over 90 items that need to be addressed, some as serious as bad wiring, no electrical throughout the home, broken appliances, water heater not properly installed and the list unfortunately goes on and on. The house was left filthy after the build (debris left in the home, drywall dust on everything, dead bugs etc). We were once again assured at the final walk through that our home would be deep cleaned to address our concerns. Of course nothing was done. We asked several times and we’re told it would be addressed but instead we had to hire and pay a cleaning company to have it move in ready clean. When we tried to be reimbursed we were denied. We didn’t expect to have to pay hundreds of dollars to do their job for them. This is not our first new build but this is our first time dealing with this level of issues straight out the gate. We are not impressed with our experience with Lennars customer service/work order maintenance. Be prepared to spend your first year in your home addressing an insane amount of “finishes” issues. They flew through putting these houses up and missed numerous big and little details to the build. I’ve already reported 20 issues and we’ve lived in our home 1 week!!! Lennar needs to step their game up! ... More

. I feel very satisfied with their material used and price we paid is very satisfactory Looking forward to enjoy our new beautiful town home Thanks

Of course you don’t want last names.. everyone would give the same negative review for the same pitiful construction manager Aaron. There’s not point going on about my experience with Lennar, no one above cares to fix their problems. I just hope EVERYONE I share my experience with turns away from Lennar and saves themselves the headaches! Listen to your friends when they tell you stay away from a Lennar home!!!

The experience was not too bad but there were things we wish were clearer at the time we decided to sign in to buy the townhouse. Initially, the post we saw on Zillow said 100 HOA which we thought it was great. But after signing in we learned that it was going to be 220 HOA plus $99 CDD which was not in the post we saw. And after we purchased we found out the HOA was $270 instead so it's something a little disappointing because we could've been told from the beginning. The townhouse also was supposed to be done by February or March but it took them around 2 more months to get it built and delivered to us. We had to use special financing in order to qualify and also we got incentives for the purchase but all those numbers were pretty confusing and we still don't understand were the incentives went and how the 11k extra that had to be paid for the special financing worked to help. We're very happy with our new home and I believe somehow the incentives helped us but I would rate everything around 3.5 for not being clear enough with us to understand the numbers the way it should be. ...

Every process of the closing process went smoothly even though I did it virtually. From the reading of the documents, signing and notarizing it was a pleasant and smooth process. Thank you Lennar!

From the loan experience with seniors to not notifyng home owners that the layout of interior has changed, to many issues on the finish work of the interior. I wanted to let lennar to be aware of these problems so others can have a better experience. The build was rushed to close. Jesse from lennar southshorebay medley is doing a great job he truly cares about helping and has made our experience much better

Started off with a leak before closing and it’s been 2 months after we closed and it’s still not fully rectified. It takes numerous follow ups on our part to get anything moving. The warranty team has been the only competent people during this process and I do thank Stephanie and Shaun. Neighbors next door smoke detector goes off at least once a week for hours showcasing the material in the homes isn’t great quality. HOA is impossible to get ahold of and annoyed when you do reach out with questions. Homes seem rushed and once it’s thrown together it’s pretty obvious the areas they just completely missed or completed incorrectly. ... More

All of the Lennar frontline staff, especially the new home consultant, Carlo, loan officer, Ilyssa, insurance agent, Maribelle, and especially the construction manager, Lacey, have allowed us to be at east throughout the process of buying and moving into our new home. The combination of their professionalism and hospitality helped us greatly enjoy our new home experience.
