Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

Excellent quality and Value. Small issues repaired promptly. Missed a 5 Star overall as the HOA/Lagoon information and figures was extremely poor. The Lagoon Sign Up process is totally dysfunctional and affects your reputation.

Overall did not have a good experience. Aaron and Lennar Title were amazing, but everyone else was extremely unresponsive and unprofessional. We were given an interest rate during our initial purchase agreement that later turned out to be nothing but a dream. They made promises they couldn’t keep, and it was nothing short of a nightmare. We also had a serious grading issue that we addressed during our walkthrough, and after badgering numerous people the day before our closing date because it still had not been addressed, we did not even know if we were going to close the day of or not until late afternoon. Steve the construction manager was extremely unresponsive during this whole process. We did close on the house and are enjoying it, but would not buy a lennar home again due to such a poor and unprofessional experience. ... More

I am really pleased with the purchase . The trenton floor plan is really good. From start to finish the process was very smooth. My lennar salesman Austin was very responsive. Even after entering the house ifvwe raise any warranty request it is adressed immediately. I am really happy with my purchase and would recommend others to buy

Long lengthy super stressful process would not recommend

When I read the Lennar builder site everything seems to be high end qualities. The loan officers and other personnel are great but the building quality and workmanship is cheap, lack of caring, and attention to details. It shows in the tiles uneven and not all full has adhesive, terrible caulking, painting is cheap and easily marked, cheap shower tiles with grout not sealed, cheap carpet, no shower doors, drain very slow, washer and dryer small and low end of GE, the water line was set up incorrectly and full of sand, sliding doors constantly have bugs and debris coming through, extremely cheap windows blinds and uneven, it’s already falling apart at the back door, HVAC or thermostat no one can explain why when change from 69 to 72 within a few minutes temperature reach 72 on display or when change from 72 to 69, it jump to 75 degree working it’s way back to 69 but it takes forever to reach that setting. Constant bugs and ants and black bugs look like black pepper coming in the house. Very tiny back porch, one of the power plug the hot and ground wire was touching each other baseboards are not painted they are original color from the manufacture. Sloppy with caulking and other sticky residues, filter was dirty when I moved in causing the AC to not working properly. Garage floor are not grouted, leaving left over paint cans and buckets behind with nasty residue. Counter top not clean underneath full of white powder, some part of the kitchen are caulk and some are not. One of the kick base plate was not glue or nail in properly so it’s already fell apart in less than 1 1/2 month. My first electric bill was $205 for a very small house. I barely uses anything. above the garage has no insulation. Inside walls has no insulation, This house has no radiant barriers like my Holiday home. Smoke alarms came on randomly I had to turn of the main switch. Terrible grass in the backyard almost unusable backyard, uneven, very sharp poky grass, grow sparsely, no gutters so water coming from the roof will damage the backyard. Getting bombarded by salesman on the first day. The outlet some nice and tight but some are too loose. One of the door to the laundry room wasn’t closed properly so I had to fixed it myself. Currently I have 3 rooms AC vents closed. Two bedrooms and a bathroom to help cool master bedroom and living room cool faster, it’s not right one bit. I have my fan on 24/7 to help cool the main bedroom and living room. Would I buy Lennar again? My answer is a BIG NO! Even with low interest rate from Lennar Lender. The only good thing about Lennar at this point is their mortgage and loan officer team, 5 stars from me and their Apps and quick response team. ... More

We recently worked with Lennar to construct our new home, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Their team was professional, responsive, and highly skilled. The quality of craftsmanship exceeded our expectations, and they kept us well-informed throughout every stage of the build. They stayed on schedule and within budget, which is rare in today’s market. We’re thrilled with the final result and would highly recommend Lennar to anyone looking for a reliable, detail-oriented home builder.

There are issues with the community itself that Lennar refuses to find a resolution for such as people parking in my turnaround spot as I am an end unit. The grass is being destroyed and is turning into a mud pit in my corner because of this issue that no one will fix

I absolutely love my new home. The craftsmanship is amazing. The process was fairly easy. Everyone that I encountered was helpful and informative and I love the community.

Sonia, the general experience is good. But I am having troubles with the dishwasher and it seems that nobody is going to help me. I registrate already the appliances, but when I call because the dishwasher doesnot function it seems that nobody care. I am wating for a solution.???

PLEASE double check all plumbing and electrical before you accept the home. My home has an issue with the lights dimming when you plug in the vacuum. NOT acceptable and still not fixed after 45 days. It's been a challenge to have the electrician address any electrical issues.

I feel zlennar needs to help out of town buyers understand their house. And to understand the zhOA.

I recently purchased a house, and overall, it was a smooth process that I would recommend to others. While it wasn't 100% perfect, the experience was certainly positive and aligned with my expectations. From the beginning, the communication with my real estate agent was clear and timely. They guided me through each step, ensuring I understood what to expect at every stage. The paperwork was straightforward, and I appreciated the transparency regarding costs. There were minor hiccups along the way, like a slight problem with getting a later appointment for the walkthroughs date and a few unexpected repairs that popped up during the inspection. However, these issues were handled professionally, and I felt supported throughout the resolution process. In the end, I got exactly what I paid for—a lovely second home that meets my needs and feels like a great investment. I’m pleased with the outcome and grateful for the overall experience. If you're considering buying a house, I’d say go for it; just be prepared for a few bumps along the way! ... More

Everything went good like it supposed to be

The builder offered its own financing, gave us a great price and it was all done in a month.

Unfortunately, I had the worst and most humiliating experience buying a home with Lennar. If they wanted to know about my two-year consecutive employment history, why didn't they ask me at the beginning? I understand that the FHA process is rigorous, but the procedure adopted by Lennar was terrible. I have never been so disrespected regarding my professional career as I was during this purchase process. Lennar asked me how I got a job at an American company if I had no “recent” experience in business or team management. Have they never heard that when a professional moves to another country, they need an adaptation period, and the career “gap” is completely acceptable for companies looking for qualified professionals? I sent all the evidence used in my EB2NIW process (which was approved two years ago and approved by a US federal agency) and they still kept asking me if I really had this experience, because the underwriter was not convinced that after 4 years out of his/her field of work, a professional cannot have a “gap” in his/her career and return to doing what he/she used to do even though he/she has 16 years of experience in the field in which he/she works. It is regrettable how they treated me; I hope that my terrible experience serves to make you more respectful of professionals in any field of professional activity, thus creating better procedures for the acquisition of homes. ...

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.

Unfortunately, the workmanship and materials were severely lacking in our new home. We had multiple issues that could have been avoided if the proper time was taken. I feel as though the priority in this new community is quantity of homes built versus the quality of those homes. However, I will say that the responsiveness to the issues that were brought to their attention was, for the most part quick.

Quick and on time .

Josh (onsite project coordinator) was helpful. Finance team had way too many people and handoffs. We had to submit the same documents multiple times. Also, our closing date was mixed up due to all of the different players. The house was significantly cheaper than other builders in the neighborhood. However, you get what you pay for. It's like we purchased a brand new Fixer-Upper with all of the modifications and upgrades we are having to make.

The process was easy. The entire team was responsive and professional every step of the way,even after closing.

The purchasing experience was smooth and organized. My only issue is the amount of registering required for each Mirada association after purchase. This is my second Lennar home. I would recommend Lennar if you are looking to purchase a new home.

No problem with my home

We went from we’re just taking a look at an open house to unexpectedly buying a new construction home. For years we had been eyeing Medley homes for when the time was right. Then we met with Joe and we went over all the incentives and before you knew it we were putting a down payment. The entire purchasing process went incredibly smooth. Everything was transparent and amazing communication from everyone involved. We used Lennar Mortgage and title and it was all seamless. I’ve worked in the mortgage industry in the past and know home buying perils. I was completely in shock at how smooth everything went as they prepared us for everything. Have been in the house for over a month and just last week entered three work orders and was impressed at how fast all were fixed. Really have nothing but praise so far. Very happy in our decision. ... More

Be make sure to have a good Lender that will help you out through the process. Steve the first lender we had from Lennar quits on us. and I feel that he didn’t do his best to help us get the house. the 2nd lender we had outside Lennar was one of the best and she helped us get our dream home. But whatever happened Lennar still one of the good builders I know.

Working with John Malone at Lennar was one of the best parts of buying our new home. From day one, John was attentive, straightforward, and genuinely committed to helping us find the right fit. He never made us feel rushed or pressured — instead, he listened closely to what we wanted and offered thoughtful guidance based on our needs. What really stood out was how organized and responsive he was. Anytime we had a question or needed clarification, John got back to us quickly with clear answers and helpful solutions. He made the entire process feel manageable, even during the more complex steps. It’s rare to find someone who combines industry expertise with such a kind, approachable attitude. John made us feel like more than just clients — he treated us like partners in the process. We’re incredibly grateful for his support and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy with Lennar. ...
