Lennar Reviews in Tampa St. Petersburg, FL

The experience buying the home was fine. Although you must know how to navigate the Internet and how to upload and download files. The home is OK for the price. The neighborhood is already having a good experience in our lives. We're going to enjoy living here very much. Having four HOA's is a bit much to handle. I hope we can afford them in the future.

Over all a positive experience with a decent quality construction and amenities. My minor dissatisfaction comes from the fact that the builder did not install a single ceiling fan and sprinklers for lawn in the backyard.

This was probably their easiest sale they had and even though i was very flexible with their demands it was not the same way from them. They moved my closing date without telling me juat days prior when they knew I had my airlines tickes purchased. They promised house will come with fans and it did not. Very disappointed about their service and how unflexible they were. Thwy sold a house so it is all what matters to them!!

Great experience with Adrianne, our sales consultant. To this day, it is so special to see her in the community. She has stayed friendly with us and has graciously introduced us to our neighbors. We had some difficulties with construction following up on items. We were rushed to close on December 31 with several outstanding items; particularly landscaping agreements between Lennar and the HOA. The agreement was for the builder to clean up the "buffer" area between the lot line and the golf course. This took lots of phone calls and follow up from folks that are not part of your construction team. The area was mowed, but the agreed upon installation of pine straw has not been completed as of today. I also was not impressed with the quality of the build. You can tell people were rushed to do their jobs as painting was sloppy. There was a safety hazard with the glass shower that we had to have fixed. The support for the glass was being held by a drywall anchor, and fell out of ceiling pretty easily when the glass was removed. Some other small things that were not considered are; no light in the guest bathroom shower, the master closet door should have been placed to open on the opposite side to provide more working space and no vanity lights in the bathroom are just some of this issues we have uncovered. The appliances are cheap and will most likely have to be replaced in the near future, specifically the dishwasher and washer/dryer. Overall, we are somewhat pleased. I wish we could have been more involved in the build and had an opportunity to pick different levels of finishes. ... More

If you want it for yourself, Lennar wants it for you. It’s your time, be patient. I worked with the most kind, pleasant, and patient team of individuals who kept me informed and motivated. I absolutely love everything about my home. In addition to getting everything I wanted in a home, literally all boxes checked, the structure, of my Lennar home is the best in its class. Thank you Lennar for being the leader you are!!!

Closed two months ago and almost every single week after closing, we experienced issues with the house where we had to call the builder to send contractors out to make corrections. For the price we paid for the house, this is truly unacceptable.

Overall, it's worth for the money. But I feel they could have provided a bit more quality items for the same price. As an example, in guest bathrooms, they are proving small tiles, very labor intensive, and needs more cleaning by homeowners on a weekly basis. Instead, they could have provided either big tiles/less labor or even the new cheap big vinyl sheets. No basic fixtures like toilet paper holders in bathrooms.

It was a great experience. I received attention from some of the team and assistance in completing the data until I finally reached the completion of the house purchase process. However, I would like in the future for things to be smoother and more flexible when selling and for everything to be explained before signing the contract. I recommend dealing with Lanar. You are a truly excellent choice.

This home purchase was a very good experience for me. From the salesman Mike to the Loan officer Joel, everyone did an awesome job and everything went smoothly. I’m truly impressed with this experience.

I am very happy with the experience. The primary difficulties I struggled with, all were technology related. I worked a career that did not include much computer work, effectively none. Everything about this process required me to do something on a new app, or website. I don't even own a computer and that has made the process challenging. Plenty of help is available, but when you aren't familiar, the help is often difficult to follow. If you're in my situation, don't shy away, just be prepared. They will get you through it. If you are someone who is familiar with and enjoy doing things online and on apps, then you will really appreciate the process. ... More

I would never recommend buying a home from Lennar. It was a nightmare from start to finish and still is to this day. The process took 3 agonizing months to close because their mortgage team had issues with us not being married or FL residents yet. Then we found a ton of things wrong with OUR BRAND NEW HOME. They made us do a new home introduction 1.5 months before we closed and then a month after we closed when we finally got to move in, we found a whole list of things that made our 800K home feel like a foreclosure home. I cannot take a bath in our tub because they have so much crap caked on the bottom of it from painting and whatever else they used, our appliances are rusting very bad, our floors are uneven and the furniture rocks back and forth. Poor quality and they rip you off on price. The home next to us (a townhome as well) sold for 300K less than we paid and they have more sq footage. I could go on and on but it’s not worth my time anymore to deal with them. My parents were going to buy a home as well and after our experience I told them to never buy a Lennar home. Thanks but no thanks Lennar. You couldn’t even send us our Key fobs. We had to drive an hr and back to pick them up. Real classy ... More

Overall great experience. The consultants were awesome. But as far as workmanship, fast and sloppy not quality materials used. They don’t even come with ceiling fans anymore.

Anna was great and my house is beautiful..

I got a quick response for my ticket. I also got some one to check and report the issue. how ever it was not fixed because those lawn water was coming from neighbor's lawn.

Terrible service from the sales person. Construction mgr was very responsive and fixed all issues.

Before you close, take your time to look at the home with a magnifying glass because there are many careless mistakes, issues that it will overwhelm you after closure. You will not only be dealing with your move but also requesting repairs so many issues and keeping up with all the trades services that will have to come to your home to fix the issues. Ease look at painted walls, outlets, cabinets, appliances, garage door.... Please take your time because it will save you many headaches.

My experience with Lennar has been far from pleasant. I scheduled a home orientation and traveled out of state specifically for it. Upon arriving, I found out the orientation had been canceled without any notification. The property was in complete disarray, and the lack of communication was appalling. The orientation was rescheduled, but the issues persisted. It was clear that unqualified workers had been used, resulting in numerous problems: The refrigerator could not open without hitting the countertop, risking damage to the door. Light switches were wired improperly, with some requiring the entire power outlet to be shut off. There were holes in the walls, and measurements throughout the home were disproportionate. I hired an inspector and uncovered even more alarming issues, including a damaged roof, which is unacceptable for a supposedly "new" home. Despite promises to resolve these issues, many remained unresolved even after closing at the end of September. For example, Lennar addressed the lighting issue in December but left behind a complete mess, which still hasn’t been cleaned. Throughout this process, communication was horrible—from the builder to the home consultant and other parties involved. The frustration and lack of professionalism made me regret proceeding with the purchase. I hope this review helps other potential buyers make an informed decision when considering Lennar. My experience has been nothing short of frustrating, and I would not recommend them based on this ordeal. ... More

We closed on 10/30/2024 and couldn't wait to get into our new home. Unfortunately from the moment we moved in it's been issue after issue. Missing grout in the tile, broken tile, doors hitting each other, scratched sinks, trim not flushed to the wall, sloppy painting, misaligned doors, interior doors not finished on the bottom, holes in garage trim, chunks missing from concrete, cabinets shiny or rough.One thing after another and every time they come out, something else gets worse. What kind of builder leaves a house like this?!?! They finally repaired the concrete holes but damaged the pavers from wiping the wet concrete onto them. It took weeks to get the pavers replaced and once they replaced the pavers guess what? New chunks in the concrete!!! The only thing that has been fixed in two months is the sink . Stay away from Lennar!!! Very disappointed. ... More

It was easy smooth and very nice people to work with

I'm still discovering things about my new home. Overall I love it because it's mine but I can see in some areas where the home was rushed. Lennar has been great about quickly responding to issues.

Easy to work with. Liked the timely delivery and response to my inquiries and status updates. Great thing is it has everything and ready to move in except couple of minor things like Water softener loop and shower glass door.

We purchased a 6-year-old model in bad shape, Lennar didn't correct every warranty item, just a few of them. They refused provide information and keys to the home. Therefore, we needed to locksmith and get new lock and keys for $340.00, and same the pavers we did them for $250,00 in Nov. 2024. But Lennar never repaid us.

The mortgage process was a breeze. Joel and his partner Jodi made it seamless, fun, and speedy. It was wonderful to work with their personalities are a breath of fresh air. I am also impressed by the way Lennar is managing my complaints. I am adding Josh in Customer Care to my list for being expedient, concerned, and attentive.

The house itself is nice and a good value for the money. The process of buying the house from the mortgage lender all the way through the celebration and acceptance had MUCH to be desired. Issues riddled throughout the entire process. Warranty claims had to be reopened because they were incorrectly denied. Several issues were found during the celebration walk and none of which were addressed before the home acceptance. The only person that kept their word through the entire process was the sales agent, Dennis. Even when I told him of some of the issues that I was having he jumped right in to assist with getting things resolved even though it was not his job to do so. All in all I love the house. I just wish I didn't have so many problems during the purchasing process and fighting to get repairs completed. ... More

Jay is not the best at checking in or communicating with his clients. Numerous promises made at final walk through without any follow through. Chris has been awesome. He is timely, responsive and follows through immediately with any and every need- going above and beyond.
