Lennar Reviews in Sarasota Bradenton, FL

First time building with a track builder. Our sales agent, Sean, went above and beyond. He was very communicative with us throughout the building process. There were some structural issues found by the independent inspector we hired and they were corrected at the pre drywall Phase. We also had a real estate agent, Christina, represent our interest during the 6 month build. She kept us well informed on the construction progress. We would highly recommend hiring an independent home inspector. We feel our home is well built and Lennar’s “everything included” saved us money. What attracted us to this development were the styles of home Lennar offers, the amenities and location. Overall, we are pleased with our new home build. ... More

Their selling price is very competitive. Construction and warranty managers are responsible and willing to help resolving issues. Their communities usually provide a lot of amenities.

All ok. The Frig makes a lot of noise .

Production Builders get a bad rap sometimes, usually because of unrealistic expectations. I feel Lennar did a great job of identifying a market, building for that market. I was delivered my new home earlier that originally planned (which almost never happens). My home was delivered with only 2 issues that have both been addressed satisfactorily. Since moving in I have had to request service for 2 issues one was handled immediately and the other just arose yesterday which I anticipate resolution soon. Overall, I am happy with the home, community, amenities, and my neighbors. If we could get a resolution to gate issues that would be nice too. ... More

Closing took a couple of months longer than ever tef mostly due to issues out of Lennar’s control. The workmanship of the trades was excellent. The finish work was just ok. The sod died as the rear irrigation did not work for a month, and that is really the only warranty issue that I’m still waiting on. ( Irrigation fixed but the controller uses a work around not 100% correct). Overall I am very happy. It’s a great value for the money in this area. The crews were clean and polite. It’s my 4th new home and had other builders and I’d go with Lennar again hands down.

Need more attention paid to quality of workmanship.

My experience of watching our home get built was unique. Living in another state causes stress but the team really wanted us to feel part of the process. By weekly receiving updated pics of our home was exciting from Jenn (she was the best and an asset to your company). As it was getting closer to the closing, and trying to get the numbers right, there were allot of concerns with things falling into place, but even with the biggest mountains the team (Julie, Brianne and NIchole) really did a great job making the closing happen on time. The only part of the experience that was stress was during the walk through with our CM, he seemed to want to rush us through, all though he said yes Ma'am and no problem I understand we will fix that. You could see he was frustrated that we wanted to see things working, like running water, a dryer that would heat up, molding around items, electrical outlet outside. He was polite, and these items that were of concern to us, should have been seen to anyone prior to the walk through. Overall, we are happy with the new home, yes there are things that need to be tweaked, but due to shortage of supplies that was out of the builder's control, it was a good process. ... More

We recently built our new Florida Home with Lennar. Overall, we are very happy with our experience. We bought during the period where they were requiring highest and best offers, which is a bit frustrating. Not only did we not get to choose our options, but we had to bid against everyone else. That being said, the house they delivered was mostly what we were looking for, they delivered a little bit late, but compared to other builders they were fast. The value is great compared to other builders in the area. Our Sales agent was excellent, and the service responses so far have been great as well. It's easy for people to complain about their builders, but when we look around and see the overall state of the housing market, contractor labor shortages, supply chain issues, etc., we feel that the builder did a pretty good job despite those challenges. Sure not everything was perfect, but anyone expecting perfection in this market is either going to pay through the nose, or be seriously disappointed. Overall, building with Lennar has been a very good experience. ... More

It was a good experience.

Too many open items at and after closing. The Lennar team is addressing them but some items remain out of stock and are yet to be installed (bathroom light fixtures)

Corporate needs to take off the suits and put work clothes on and get down to the nitty gritty see their output of their constructions

We purchased a fully upgraded home in a new Lennar development, and were pleased by the excellent result. High professionalism was shown by every employee we encountered. The pandemic years caused some delays in the build process, but Lennar persevered and still delivered.

Original purchase policy for the condo’s had us on a waiting list as first available, as soon as our turn came up Lennar changes it’s policy to highest bidder. This caused a delay in our purchase along with a price increase.

Great value for your money

High volume builder. Some options but not a custom builder. Good experience so far.

Overall good buying experience and quality home!

Good value home and great community. A few more issues with the building process than I'd like but overall very good.

Warranty responsiveness has been excellent. Vendors providing the service not so much. Continue to find minor construction related flaws and submit my request for service.

This is my first home purchase ever, so consider me a novice in home buying despite my research done ahead of time. They do earn your trust but in the beginning, it is so full of selling you this and that, false promises, etc. For example, my salesperson promised me a sound proof door considering that was a deal breaker to buy one of the last remaining houses in the community. 6 months later, still no door and learned that this should not have been made. I hate having to out work orders in only because I know the house is settling and it may require to have the contractors come out more than once but that's just me feeling like a pest. I love the 1 year maintenance warranty as the house settles. I wish somethings would have been disclosed upfront a little more and not oversold as they were good things, when they are not (appliances, etc). I never experienced Lennar homes before but am impressed overall with the home and the "Everything Included". LIke I said, first time homebuyer and it was a nerve wracking experience but they helped make the transition easy. ... More

The area to live in is great. Very near a brand new Publix Market & shops, many golf courses within 5 miles. The houses are very well built and priced correctly for the area.

Sales team (James) was very supportive and helpful, even months after the sale. Resolution of punch list items was handled slowly but very professionally and thoroughly by Lennar staff (Danna).

Lennar sells a great product! Value was important and we definitely received that with our new home. As with any new home, there will be some issues that have to be addressed after purchase but Lennar’s CustomerCare team is quick to respond.

The Lennar home buying experience went well except for one thing. I had an unexpected medical issue and asked for an extension on the closing date. Lennar denied it and it almost cost me the home.

I had a good overall experience with Lennar and the Condo with one minor issue and one major issue that I never received a satisfactory response. Respectfully Bob T.

purchase went smoothly, appliances are all GE but of lower quality, room switches are not dimmer friendly
