Lennar Homes

Lennar Homes History

Lennar is a combination of the names of 2 of its founders, Lenard Miller and Arnold Rosen. F&R Builders was founded in 1954 in Miami by Rosen and Gene Fisher. Miller became a partner in 1956.

The company continued to grow, and in 1971 went public and changed the name to Lennar Homes. The tale has been one of virtually uninterrupted growth. Lennar has acquired such well-known builders as U.S. Homes, Richmond American Homes, and CalAtlantic Homes. This has made them the nation’s largest home construction company.

These days, Lennar Corporation has its fingers in a lot of pies. In addition to the homebuilding, they own Rialto Capital Management, which is a group of large equity funds, and also originates commercial loans. They also own 53 apartment complexes and operate in 21 states.

Las Vegas Builder Lennar Homes

By far, Lennar Homes is the builder with the most housing tracts. The same floorplans are in various neighborhoods. This is why we take people on a “Three-Hour Tour.” Find the area, then find the home. 

In 1989 Lennar started its “Everything’s Included” program, which emphasized fewer upgrades with things like upgraded appliances included. They have carried this through their building here in Las Vegas through the early 2000s.

Their reputation for many years was that they built energy-efficient homes as a standard. Other builders had energy efficiency as optional items. Seeing the success of Lennar and the market demand, most every Las Vegas builder now builds “green homes.”

Lennar’s Features

In 2012 Lennar started the “Lennar Next Gen” program, which emphasized technology and multi-generational homes.  The response to having a separate living area for friends, kids, relatives, or office has had a great response.

In 2018, all Lennar homes incorporated Amazon Alexa and other Alexa device technology into their homes. Smart houses are very appealing to both the X and Me Generation’s home-buyers.  While Lennar’s smart tech is an included feature, many builders still offer these features as upgrades.
