After hearing from the Florida Attorney General’s office, they indicated that a complaint would be filed on my behalf against Lennar and WCI Communities. Nothing with this process – or the result – made any sense.
On August 10, 2017, I receive this email from the Department of Business and Professional Regulation with instructions on how to complete the complaint process. Attached was a PDF with these instructions:
RE: Subject: LENNAR HOMES Case Number: 2017038756
Dear Kris Fannin: The Division of Regulation received and reviewed your complaint against LENNAR HOMES.

Sincerely,
I received communication providing instructions on what I needed to submit to the Department of Business and Professional Regulation to complete a complaint against Lennar Homes.
After a few emails for clarification, I gathered all the required documentation, organized and scanned them. I sent them back in a series of two emails.
Here is the first email to Department of Business and Professional Regulation with original contracts and deposit checks:
First email to Department of Business and Professional Regulation with original contracts and deposit checks. These are some of the items the department needed to file a complaint against Lennar and WCI Communities for ongoing construction issues.
Here is the second email to the Department of Business and Professional Regulation with a finalized HUD statement from the date I closed on a new construction home built by Lennar (formerly WCI Communities).
The second email containing documents needed to finalize the complaint filing with Department of Business and Professional Regulation against Lennar Homes.
The Department sent an email to me the next day on August 17, 2017, confirming receipt of all of the required documents.

Although I send this email the same day asking about the process and next steps, I never heard anything back from them.

#OMG I've spent the last 10 minutes reading how @krisfannin has been systematically abused by @Lennar Home Builders and the #Florida @AGPamBondi 's office in his 4 yr pursuit of a just settlement for his dangerously defective home! https://t.co/HocmUqVWaU

Note: As of the date of this publication, all the Lennar executives went silent and none of the construction repairs (totaling nearly $300,000) were ever made, including the promised replacements of two, improperly installed and defective A/C units causing extensive mold exposure and health issues.
