Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

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.

Everything is falling apart! Too many issues to have only been here 4 months!!!!

When looking at the home, we were told that ALL lawn and landscape maintenance was covered - lie. We were told that the gates would start to be closed for security - lie. We were told that the amenities we are paying for are for use of only residents - lie, because the gates are left open anyone can and do come in to user our sports courts, pool, and trespass fish. I have submitted two requests to get the swamp that is the drainage area on the side of my home - nothing. If anyone reading this is considering buying from Lennar, look elsewhere. You will be told anything to get you to buy only to find out that you have been lied to. ... More

Thought we made a good choice. Buying part was rough and a lot of bad information and uninformed people. Once moved in, if we communicate issues found, nobody cares or shows up to fix them. Really thought Lennar was better than this. Thought wrong.

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

The house was not cleaned at all prior to closing, and we were promised that things would be fixed in the days after our closing. We still have not had anyone come to our house to touch up the damaged walls and paint issues. The concrete driveway has FOOTPRINTS on it from the construction workers, but Lennar says 'its within tolerance' so nothing will be done about PERMANENT FOOTPRINTS in our concrete driveway. Horrible experience and will never buy Lennar again. Also the sales agent Yatsi is among the worst sales agents we have ever dealth with. Totally clueless.

Too many problems throughout the process. Starting out with many misinformation while dealing with the selling consultant. A significant amount of builder fee had not been told until after the down payment was made. Slow responses to requests throughout the entire process. Finance advisor was the worst, not being responsive, giving high mortgage rate and manipulating the closing disclosure to keep it high. I ended up paying a much higher closing cost than expected even after seller incentive. Lack of communication among different groups within Lennar, between Construction and Closing, Consultant, etc. My closing date was delayed 3 times. As the results, I have to put my furnitures and belongings in storage because the house was not ready as planned. That cost me extra money for pay for storage and a second move from there to the new home. I asked Lennar to help out with a small compensation, but was refused despite the fact that they caused these delays from not having the home available for closing in three scheduled closing dates. The final inspection was carried out despite the tiles was not even installed on the roof. At one time, one day before the scheduled closing, I drove to the site to verify if everything is ready for the home to be occupied, and found out the tiles were not even installed. But, no one from Lennar let me know about that. I found out myself because I did not trust them after being given misinformation and empty promises many times. Now, after moving in for more than a month, many issues found during the Orientation/final inspection still haven’t been taken care of. The saga continues. It’s felt like Lennar Management here may be out of touch or possibly don’t even care about providing and maintaining a reasonable customer service! It has been a terrible experience for us that leaves us a bad impression of this builder’s reputation from their mismanagement and bad customer services! ... More

The experience we had was too much to put in writing but would be open to discuss.

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.
