Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

I’m extremely disappointed, with the price I’m paying for a house like this I expect small problems if any. I’ve had major construction done to an upstairs closet, missing paint in parts of my house, spots with no texture, water damage to a door, door hinges ripping from the walls. I’m beyond annoyed with how much time it takes to get these problems resolved. They try to do what they can to make it right but I am tired of construction, I’m tired of constantly having trades at my house fixing things that shouldn’t have been overlooked or assumed I as the homeowner wouldn’t notice. This is a serious problem! I don’t understand why it’s so hard for Lennar and the contractors to just slow down and do it right the first time so you don’t have to have 100 warranty calls on one home. It is not that hard to just slow down make sure you’re doing your best work because it saves a lot of hassle on both sides for the homeowner and for the company Lennar. The work that has been done to my home is less than satisfactory and I’m literally at my wits end of dealing with this company any longer. From buying this one home I WILL NOT EVER recommend Lennar to any of my friends or any people I know asking who they should purchase a home from. Consider me a lost customer that will never come back and buy a house with Lennar. ... More

Communication and response time is horrible for any warranty work needed. We were promised several things from first warranty guy then he was switched to different property and new guy has no idea about anything. Wait time to get items addressed and taken care of is ridiculous. We have asked to speak with supervisor verbally, through text, and via emails. No response on that yet either.

Honestly this was my 3 home purchase but if was the worst of the three. More stressful, communication wasn’t good at all, timeline kept changing, walkthrough and final walkthrough did not repair a lot of things that were broken or damage. Plan to purchase again but it will not be with Lennar.

Lennar's workmanship is surprisingly sub par. This is truly a production home and that is what you get. There are such minor design features they missed that would move their home from below average to top notch but unfortunately, Lennar's home design team must be novices at best to have missed such minor things in their floor plans, at least in the many plans we reviewed. The community was the selling point for sure - NOT the Lennar home. We wanted to be in the community and had very limited home design choices with Lennar within our budget. If it wasn't for that, we would never have chosen Lennar. I wish I had a home designers ear to give them a few, low cost, home design pointers that I'm certain would definitely increase their home sales by a lot. Additionally, none of the "walk through" items were addressed as was supposed to be the case during that one week before closing. Also, the response time to issues raised . The masterbath tile design was not at all what was indicated it would be and I'm still dealing wit that. Overall, not a good experience at al. MI Homes and Mattamy have MUCH. better workmanship. Unfortunately, they did not build in the community we were looking at. But, highly recommend them over Lennar unless you are looking at their 55+ community homes, which seem to be of better workmanship and quality. I gave it 3 stars in the "value for the price" only because of current price trends and in the location we bought (Mirada). The home we purchased was a good value for the size of the home, comparatively speaking to other homes on the market. ... More

Overall extremely challenging to communicate with the lennar team. Multiple people all responsible for different branches none of them communicate clearly, causing lots of frustration.

For the past 20 years, I have worked in Real Estate and in purchasing my own home, one would think I would have a better experience. I closed because I needed to but today, my issues are still not resolved. I chase to get things done and no one responds. Worse experience for any homeowner. The quality of the workmanship on my home is horrible.

Once the down payment went through so did the fast response to issues. Closed early to help them out and immediately regretted that because there were issues with filthy grout on brand new tile floors throughout the home. Painters and cleaners not good in my opinion. I’m not moved in yet but will be soon and hope everything has been taken care of… we shall see. Oh and the garage and lanai and front walkway has many cracks that they say is ok not sure about the driveway yet. Overall I wouldn’t have bought my home because every step of the way was constant phone calls, texts with a real bad lack of response time if at all. I’m sure I’ll find lots more when I move in next week ... More

Not a good experience with the Townhome bought. No Responsiveness from Construction Manager and Comparatively(2016 was a Lennar customer) quality is not good. Very bad experience this time with Lennar and its crew(Construction Manager/Sales consultant) very poor responsiveness and responsibility. Poor quality of construction. Several issues pending to be addressed post closing and negligence from Lennar in not fixing them. Would not like to get into nitty gritty but very very bad experience.

The builder does not have any kind of quality controls. One month after closing, we have experienced all kinds of plumbing and electrical issues, not to mention so many items not fixed since closing. The house is in a really bad shape, e.g. cracked window/bathtub/grout etc. considering the price tag. The service request is submitted through an online system. Once submitted, you will need to wait to schedule a remote discussion with a representative, who will then transfer the ticket, each step could take several days to weeks.

several items in the home were breakable, poor quality of material, wirers were hooked together wrong, floors in upstairs bedroom make squeaky noises, poor!

Had very bad experience, Lennar pushed to close on 8/31, today 10/18 and we still have many things not done. A huge hole in a countertop, horrible painting, many things around not done . Contacted Lennar SALE PERSON, AND MANAGER NOT HELPFUL AT ALL

Would not buy a lennar home again!

Ali, our sales consultant was very professional as were our mortgage and title representatives However, our pre close and post close walk throughs were apparently a waste of time. We closed over 6 weeks ago and still have simple paint and electrical issues that have not been addressed and our backyard is so poorly graded that we can’t use it because it is soggy and muddy.

The bottom line is that Lennar has grown out and failed to grow in. This unprecedented market unfortunately promulgates an attitude of quantity over quality. It’s blatantly apparent from nearly top to bottom. I would challenge Lennar to truly look at satisfaction ratings of the entire Bryant Square community. There HS absolutely a systemic failure that needs addressed. The most efficient, caring and compassionate entity was with Megan and Morgan in the loan Dept as well as the closing process. Other than that, I will never buy another Lennar home. I am not alone in this opinion.

Just don’t do it. They totally took away from our first home buying experience and continue to do so as we speak.

During the process of building the home there was no communication. We did the walkthrough and everything was in a hurry as we were closing in few days . The detail terminations of the house was done also at last minute . I think quality is always the key in building a home ! Thanks

First time homebuyer here on a new construction home. We love the floor plan of the Richmond model. Great community and neighbors. Fit and finish of the home is poor. Missing trim, paint splatters everywhere and just an overall cheap feel. Although the home is about 90% perfect, it’s hard not to notice the 10%. Lennar doesn’t offer any customizations which would’ve been easier to do/install during construction. Lennar mortgage and lennar title are terrible with communication. With overinflated house prices in 2022 it’s hard to justify value.

At first the experience went well, but we had a hard time closing due to the poor workmanship at the end that caused us to have 3 home inspections and end the end it was still done poorly

My wife and I were so excited about moving into our new townhouse in Florida. We were all prepared to turn key and settle in. We were not prepared for what we encountered when we arrived home after closing. Appliances were not installed, counter tops damaged and not cut correctly, cabinet doors installed damaged, trim work on doors cut too short, numerous drywall issues, missing window sills, hot water heater didn’t work, numerous issues with paint, home was not cleaned prior to move, floors were covered in drywall mud, paint and grease. Front door had missing weather stripping, water to washer did not work properly, shower floors covered in paint and grout. Spent weeks trying to resolve all issues, some to this day have yet to be corrected. Very dissatisfied with Lennar on selling a house in this condition. ... More

I wish I could turn back time and wait on my close. Make sure you have everything complete before you sign. If Dillon is your construction manager, leave completely, he is not only incompetent, he is rude and unresponsive.

get a closing date included in contract if possible and penalties if possible. These people should be more responsive to people spending their money. No reason for these major delays that cost me in excess of $5000 . for temp housing. Im sure that this survay will go no where, and nothing done for me or the next person,

Terrible workmanship, quality, and lack of caring from the construction manager, builders, and select lennar representatives that I have reached out to.

From the day we moved in we had issues. Had to plead with people to come fix anything. Mt bathroom floor is now squeaking!

The house is built fast and cheap. Workmanship is poor quality. Home advertises as "comes with everything", but it doesnt come with essential items you would expect from a home; such as coach lights, door bell, sliding door bug screen, drawers in any bathrooms and list goes on. Lennar also did not disclose very important information such as; we live next to landfield, and many more information would have made us not move here if we knew. I won't be buying lennar again nor will i ever recommend them to anyone i know.

I bought a lennar home in Las Vegas, NV and now in Riverview. The only benefits is all inclusive. Cleanliness, responsiveness to problems, and customer service are almost non existent.
