Lennar
America’s Hometown Florida Builder
Every big national builder works in Florida. Lennar is the one that’s actually from here. Founded in Miami in 1954 and still headquartered there, Lennar has grown into the second-largest homebuilder in the United States — 82,583 homes delivered in fiscal 2025 alone — without ever leaving the state where it started. When you buy a Lennar home in Florida, you’re buying from a company whose executives drive past its communities on the way to work.
The thing most buyers know Lennar for is ‘Everything’s Included,’ and it deserves the reputation. Instead of quoting a base price and sending you to a design center where the real number gets built one upgrade at a time, Lennar folds appliances, finishes and smart-home technology into the sticker price. You see the figure, and that’s broadly what you pay. In a state where new construction shoppers are comparing communities across three counties at once, that transparency saves genuine time and prevents genuine surprises.
Scale is the other half of the story. Lennar’s average sales price in fiscal 2025 was $391,000 — down from $445,000 two years earlier, a deliberate move toward attainability that shows up clearly in its Florida communities, from entry townhomes to move-up single-family and active-adult neighborhoods.
Lennar by the Numbers
Few builders anywhere have grown like this. Deliveries have climbed roughly 38% in five years, even through a rising-rate market that slowed most of the industry:

The Lennar Approach
Lennar builds for four buyer groups — first-time, move-up, active adult and luxury — and its Florida communities usually make clear which one they’re aimed at. Common threads run through all of them: impact-resistant construction to current Florida code, included smart-home packages, and a heavy use of quick move-in inventory for buyers who can’t wait out a nine-month build. The company’s in-house lender frequently offers rate buydowns that meaningfully change the monthly payment math, so it’s worth pricing both ways before you commit to outside financing.
Where Lennar Builds in South Florida
Lennar is active across all three southeast counties and up the Treasure Coast — these are some of the markets where we track their communities:
Miami-Dade • Move-up & professional
Landmark at Doral puts upscale townhomes steps from CityPlace Doral — a favorite of young professionals and international buyers who want new construction near the airport and Brickell.
Miami-Dade • Attainable single-family
In the county’s affordable southern corridor, Lennar delivers some of the last realistically priced detached homes in Miami-Dade, with Everything’s Included keeping budgets predictable.
Treasure Coast • Growth market
A dominant presence in one of America’s fastest-growing cities, from attainable single-family to larger plans in the Tradition area’s villages.
Space Coast • First-time value
On the Space Coast, Lennar’s communities compete in Florida’s most affordable new construction market — a natural first stop for entry-level buyers.
Why Buyers Choose Lennar
Everything’s Included
#2 U.S. Builder
Quick Move-In Inventory
In-House Financing
Buyers gravitate to Lennar for predictability: transparent pricing, standardized quality at enormous scale, and enough inventory that timing rarely becomes the obstacle. The trade-off is customization — this is not the builder for buyers who want to move walls. For everyone else, especially first-timers navigating Florida’s market for the first time, it’s one of the most straightforward paths into a new home.
