Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Basis of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lennar Corporation and all subsidiaries, partnerships and other entities in which Lennar Corporation has a controlling interest and variable interest entities ("VIEs") (see Note 10 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) in which Lennar Corporation is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (the "Company"). The Company’s investments in both unconsolidated entities in which a significant, but less than controlling, interest is held and in VIEs in which the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary, are accounted for by the equity method. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2019 . In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been made. The Company has historically experienced, and expects to continue to experience, variability in quarterly results. The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended February 29, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents Homebuilding cash and cash equivalents as of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 included $502.2 million and $565.8 million , respectively, of cash held in escrow for approximately three days . Share-based Payments During the three months ended February 29, 2020 , the Company granted employees 0.9 million nonvested shares. During the three months ended February 28, 2019 , the Company granted employees an immaterial number of nonvested shares. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification determined whether the lease expense was recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company beginning December 1, 2019. The Company elected the available practical expedients on adoption. Additionally, in preparation for adoption of the standard, the Company has implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information. The standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) or our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result of the adoption, as of February 29, 2020 , the Company has recorded $143.7 million of ROU assets and $150.8 million of lease liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets within other assets and other liabilities of the respective segments. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating and Reporting Segments | Operating and Reporting Segments The Company's homebuilding operations construct and sell homes primarily for first-time, move-up and active adult homebuyers primarily under the Lennar brand name. In addition, the Company's homebuilding operations purchase, develop and sell land to third parties. The Company's chief operating decision makers manage and assess the Company’s performance at a regional level. Therefore, the Company performed an assessment of its operating segments in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting , and determined that the following are its operating and reportable segments: (1) Homebuilding East (2) Homebuilding Central (3) Homebuilding Texas (4) Homebuilding West (5) Financial Services (6) Multifamily (7) Lennar Other The assets and liabilities related to the Company’s segments were as follows: (In thousands) February 29, 2020 Assets: Homebuilding Financial Services Multifamily Lennar Other Total Cash and cash equivalents $ 784,950 246,712 15,790 5,030 1,052,482 Restricted cash 8,666 13,894 — — 22,560 Receivables, net (1) 311,817 281,941 80,319 — 674,077 Inventories 18,643,480 — 357,051 — 19,000,531 Loans held-for-sale (2) — 1,170,696 — — 1,170,696 Loans held-for-investment, net — 70,763 — — 70,763 Investments held-to-maturity — 183,945 — — 183,945 Investments available-for-sale (3) — 7,922 — 53,402 61,324 Investments in unconsolidated entities 946,716 — 589,646 406,179 1,942,541 Goodwill 3,442,359 215,516 — — 3,657,875 Other assets (4) 1,061,852 184,175 71,097 19,781 1,336,905 $ 25,199,840 2,375,564 1,113,903 484,392 29,173,699 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable, net $ 8,115,498 990,152 — 15,178 9,120,828 Other liabilities (5) 3,279,597 368,571 201,992 9,334 3,859,494 $ 11,395,095 1,358,723 201,992 24,512 12,980,322 (In thousands) November 30, 2019 Assets: Homebuilding Financial Services Multifamily Lennar Other Total Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,200,832 234,113 8,711 2,340 1,445,996 Restricted cash 9,698 12,022 — 975 22,695 Receivables, net (1) 329,124 500,847 76,906 — 906,877 Inventories 17,776,507 — 315,107 — 18,091,614 Loans held-for-sale (2) — 1,644,939 — — 1,644,939 Loans held-for-investment, net — 73,867 — — 73,867 Investments held-to-maturity — 190,289 — 54,117 244,406 Investments available-for-sale (3) — 3,732 48,206 — 51,938 Investments in unconsolidated entities 1,009,035 — 561,190 403,688 1,973,913 Goodwill 3,442,359 215,516 — — 3,657,875 Other assets (4) 1,021,684 130,699 58,711 34,297 1,245,391 $ 24,789,239 3,006,024 1,068,831 495,417 29,359,511 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable, net $ 7,776,638 1,745,755 36,125 15,178 9,573,696 Other liabilities (5) 3,230,400 310,695 196,030 14,860 3,751,985 $ 11,007,038 2,056,450 232,155 30,038 13,325,681 (1) Receivables, net for Financial Services primarily related to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , respectively. (2) Loans held-for-sale related to unsold residential and commercial loans carried at fair value. (3) Investments available-for-sale are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. (4) As of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , Financial Services other assets included mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $31.2 million and $16.3 million , respectively, and mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value of $12.6 million and $24.7 million , respectively. (5) As of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , Financial Services other liabilities included $62.0 million and $60.7 million , respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to construction defects, general liability and workers’ compensation. In addition, as of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , Financial Services other liabilities also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $13.2 million and $3.9 million , respectively. Financial information relating to the Company’s segments was as follows: Three Months Ended February 29, 2020 (In thousands) Homebuilding Financial Services Multifamily Lennar Other Corporate and unallocated Total Revenues $ 4,172,116 198,661 132,617 1,943 — 4,505,337 Operating earnings 460,398 47,317 1,785 899 — 510,399 Corporate general and administrative expenses — — — — 86,847 86,847 Earnings before income taxes 460,398 47,317 1,785 899 (86,847 ) 423,552 Three Months Ended February 28, 2019 Revenues $ 3,623,721 143,311 97,394 3,656 — 3,868,082 Operating earnings 369,595 18,972 6,797 3,103 — 398,467 Corporate general and administrative expenses — — — — 79,343 79,343 Earnings before income taxes 369,595 18,972 6,797 3,103 (79,343 ) 319,124 Homebuilding Segments Information about homebuilding activities in states which are not economically similar to other states in the same geographic area is grouped under "Homebuilding Other," which is not considered a reportable segment. Evaluation of segment performance is based primarily on operating earnings (loss) before income taxes. Operations of the Company’s Homebuilding segments primarily include the construction and sale of single-family attached and detached homes as well as the purchase, development and sale of residential land directly and through the Company’s unconsolidated entities. Operating earnings (loss) for the Homebuilding segments consist of revenues generated from the sales of homes and land, other revenues from management fees and forfeited deposits, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, and selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Company’s reportable Homebuilding segments and all other homebuilding operations not required to be reported separately have homebuilding divisions located in: East: Florida, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and South Carolina Central: Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Minnesota and Virginia Texas: Texas West: Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington Other: Urban divisions and other homebuilding related investments primarily in California, including FivePoint Holdings, LLC ("FivePoint") The assets related to the Company’s homebuilding segments were as follows: (In thousands) Assets: East Central Texas West Other Corporate and Unallocated Total Homebuilding Balance at February 29, 2020 $ 6,867,299 2,779,966 2,388,579 11,083,548 1,141,924 938,524 25,199,840 Balance at November 30, 2019 $ 6,708,586 2,732,872 2,246,893 10,663,666 1,173,163 1,264,059 24,789,239 Financial information relating to the Company’s homebuilding segments was as follows: Three Months Ended February 29, 2020 (In thousands) East Central Texas West Other Total Homebuilding Revenues $ 1,406,866 534,976 473,228 1,748,769 8,277 4,172,116 Operating earnings (loss) 175,005 29,472 53,073 224,907 (22,059 ) 460,398 Three Months Ended February 28, 2019 Revenues $ 1,226,814 435,067 418,517 1,540,896 2,427 3,623,721 Operating earnings (loss) 135,383 30,926 32,278 190,661 (19,653 ) 369,595 Financial Services Operations of the Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title and closing services primarily for buyers of the Company’s homes. It also includes originating and selling into securitizations commercial mortgage loans through its LMF Commercial business, formerly Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF"). The Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period of time in the secondary mortgage market, the majority of which are sold on a servicing released, non-recourse basis. After the loans are sold, the Company retains potential liability for possible claims by purchasers that it breached certain limited industry-standard representations and warranties in the loan sale agreements. Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title and closing services, and property and casualty insurance, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations. At February 29, 2020 , the Financial Services warehouse facilities were all 364-day repurchase facilities and used to fund residential mortgages or commercial mortgages for LMF Commercial as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment Residential facilities maturing: March 2020 (1) $ 100,000 May 2020 300,000 June 2020 300,000 October 2020 500,000 Total - Residential facilities $ 1,200,000 LMF Commercial facilities maturing November 2020 $ 200,000 December 2020 650,000 December 2020 (two - one year extensions) (2) 50,000 Total - LMF Commercial facilities $ 900,000 Total $ 2,100,000 (1) Subsequent to February 2020, the maturity date was extended to March 2021. (2) LMF Commercial uses this warehouse repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans, which are reported as accrual loans within loans held-for-investment, net. There were borrowings under this facility of $11.4 million as of February 29, 2020 . The Financial Services segment uses the residential facilities to finance its residential lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and the proceeds are collected. The facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. The LMF Commercial facilities finance LMF Commercial loan originations and securitization activities and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. Borrowings and collateral under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were as follows: (In thousands) February 29, 2020 November 30, 2019 Borrowings under the residential facilities $ 674,848 $ 1,374,063 Collateral under the residential facilities 698,369 1,423,650 Borrowings under the LMF Commercial facilities 161,546 216,870 If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be repaid by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting receivables on loans sold but not yet paid for. Without the facilities, the Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Substantially all of the residential loans the Financial Services segment originates are sold within a short period in the secondary mortgage market on a servicing released, non-recourse basis. After the loans are sold, the Company retains potential liability for possible claims by purchasers that it breached certain limited industry-standard representations and warranties in the loan sale agreements. Purchasers sometimes try to defray losses by purporting to have found inaccuracies related to sellers’ representations and warranties in particular loan sale agreements. Mortgage investors could seek to have the Company buy back mortgage loans or compensate them for losses incurred on mortgage loans that the Company has sold based on claims that the Company breached its limited representations or warranties. The Company’s mortgage operations have established accruals for possible losses associated with mortgage loans previously originated and sold to investors. The Company establishes accruals for such possible losses based upon, among other things, an analysis of repurchase requests received, an estimate of potential repurchase claims not yet received and actual past repurchases and losses through the disposition of affected loans as well as previous settlements. While the Company believes that it has adequately reserved for known losses and projected repurchase requests, given the volatility in the residential mortgage industry and the uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of these claims, if either actual repurchases or the losses incurred resolving those repurchases exceed the Company’s expectations, additional recourse expense may be incurred. Loan origination liabilities are included in Financial Services’ liabilities in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The activity in the Company’s loan origination liabilities was as follows: Three Months Ended February 29, February 28, (In thousands) 2020 2019 Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period $ 9,364 48,584 Provision for losses 776 673 Payments/settlements (144 ) (42,560 ) Loan origination liabilities, end of period $ 9,996 6,697 LMF Commercial - loans held-for-sale During the three months ended February 29, 2020 , LMF Commercial originated commercial loans with a total principal balance of $412.3 million , all of which were recorded as loans held-for-sale and sold $314.4 million of commercial loans into two separate securitizations. As of February 29, 2020 there were no unsettled transactions. During the three months ended February 28, 2019 , LMF Commercial originated commercial loans with a total principal balance of $270.1 million , all of which were recorded as loans held-for-sale, and sold $200.5 million of commercial loans into two separate securitizations. Investments held-to-maturity At February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the carrying value of Financial Services' commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") was $165.3 million and $166.0 million , respectively. These securities were purchased at discounts ranging from 6% to 84% with coupon rates ranging from 2.0% to 5.3% , stated and assumed final distribution dates between October 2027 and December 2028, and stated maturity dates between October 2050 and December 2051. The Financial Services segment reviews changes in estimated cash flows periodically to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred on its CMBS. Based on the segment’s assessment, no impairment charges were recorded during either the three months ended February 29, 2020 or February 28, 2019 . The Financial Services segment classifies these securities as held-to-maturity based on its intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity. The Company has financing agreements to finance CMBS that have been purchased as investments by the Financial Services segment. At February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of outstanding debt in these agreements was $153.8 million and $154.7 million , respectively and interest is incurred at a rate of 3.4% . Multifamily The Company is actively involved, primarily through unconsolidated entities, in the development, construction and property management of multifamily rental properties. The Multifamily segment focuses on developing a geographically diversified portfolio of institutional quality multifamily rental properties in select U.S. markets. Operations of the Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities, and management and promote fees generated from joint ventures and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other gains (which includes sales of buildings), less the cost of sales of land sold, expenses related to construction activities and general and administrative expenses. Lennar Other Lennar Other primarily includes fund interests the Company retained when it sold the Rialto asset and investment management platform, as well as strategic investments in technology companies. Operations of the Lennar Other segment include operating earnings (loss) consisting of revenues generated primarily from the Company's share of carried interests in the Rialto fund investments retained after the sale of Rialto's asset and investment management platform, along with equity in earnings (loss) from the Rialto fund investments and strategic technology investments, and other income (expense), net from the remaining assets related to the Company's former Rialto segment. |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities | Investments in Unconsolidated Entities Homebuilding Unconsolidated Entities As of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the Company’s recorded investments in Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $946.7 million and $1.0 billion , respectively, while the underlying equity in Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of both February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 was $1.3 billion . The basis difference was primarily as a result of the Company contributing its investment in three strategic joint ventures with a higher fair value than book value for an investment in the FivePoint entity and deferring equity in earnings on land sales to the Company. Included in the Company's recorded investments in Homebuilding unconsolidated entities is the Company's 40% ownership of FivePoint. As of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the carrying amount of the Company's FivePoint investment was $366.8 million and $374.0 million , respectively. The Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments usually finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In some instances, the Company and its partners have guaranteed debt of certain unconsolidated entities. The total debt of the Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments was $1.1 billion as of both February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , of which the Company's maximum recourse exposure was $4.9 million and $10.8 million as of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , respectively. In most instances in which the Company has guaranteed debt of an unconsolidated entity, the Company’s partners have also guaranteed that debt and are required to contribute their share of the guarantee payments. In a repayment guarantee, the Company and its venture partners guarantee repayment of a portion or all of the debt in the event of default before the lender would have to exercise its rights against the collateral. In connection with many of the loans to Homebuilding unconsolidated entities, the Company and its joint venture partners (or entities related to them) have been required to give guarantees of completion to the lenders. Those completion guarantees may require that the guarantors complete the development or construction of the improvements for which the financing was obtained. If the development or construction is to be done in phases, the guarantee generally is limited to completing only the phases as to which construction has already commenced and for which loan proceeds were used. If the Company is required to make a payment under any guarantee, the payment would constitute a capital contribution or loan to the Homebuilding unconsolidated entity and increase the Company’s investment in the unconsolidated entity and its share of any funds the unconsolidated entity distributes. As of both February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the fair values of the repayment guarantees, maintenance guarantees, and completion guarantees were not material. The Company believes that as of February 29, 2020 , in the event it becomes legally obligated to perform under a guarantee of the obligation of a Homebuilding unconsolidated entity due to a triggering event under a guarantee, the collateral would be sufficient to repay at least a significant portion of the obligation or the Company and its partners would contribute additional capital into the venture. In certain instances, the Company has placed performance letters of credit and surety bonds with municipalities with regard to obligations of its joint ventures (see Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Multifamily Unconsolidated Entities The unconsolidated entities in which the Multifamily segment has investments usually finance their activities with a combination of partner equity and debt financing. In connection with many of the loans to Multifamily unconsolidated entities, the Company (or entities related to them) has been required to give guarantees of completion and cost over-runs to the lenders and partners. Those completion guarantees may require that the guarantors complete the construction of the improvements for which the financing was obtained. Additionally, the Company guarantees the construction costs of the project as construction cost over-runs would be paid by the Company. Generally, these payments would increase the Company's investment in the entities and would increase its share of funds the entities distribute after the achievement of certain thresholds. As of both February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the fair value of the completion guarantees was immaterial. As of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , Multifamily segment's unconsolidated entities had non-recourse debt with completion guarantees of $979.5 million and $867.3 million , respectively. In many instances, the Multifamily segment is appointed as the construction, development and property manager for its Multifamily unconsolidated entities and receives fees for performing this function. During the three months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, the Multifamily segment recorded fee income, net of deferrals, from its unconsolidated entities of $13.8 million and $13.1 million , respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. All outstanding nonvested shares that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents that participate in undistributed earnings with common stock are considered participating securities and are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s restricted common stock ("nonvested shares") is considered participating securities. Basic and diluted earnings per share were calculated as follows: Three Months Ended February 29, February 28, (In thousands, except per share amounts) 2020 2019 Numerator: Net earnings attributable to Lennar $ 398,452 239,910 Less: distributed earnings allocated to nonvested shares 334 99 Less: undistributed earnings allocated to nonvested shares 4,092 1,860 Numerator for basic earnings per share 394,026 237,951 Less: net amount attributable to noncontrolling interests in Rialto's Carried Interest Incentive Plan (1) — 323 Numerator for diluted earnings per share $ 394,026 237,628 Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted average common shares outstanding 311,213 321,339 Effect of dilutive securities: Shared based payments 2 10 Denominator for diluted earnings per share - weighted average common shares outstanding 311,215 321,349 Basic earnings per share $ 1.27 0.74 Diluted earnings per share $ 1.27 0.74 (1) The amounts presented relate to Rialto's Carried Interest Incentive Plan and represent the difference between the advanced tax distributions received from the Rialto funds included in the Lennar Other segment and the amount Lennar is assumed to own. For both the three months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019 , there were no options to purchase shares of common stock that were outstanding and anti-dilutive. |

At February 29, 2020 , the Company had an unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with maximum borrowings of $2.45 billion with $50 million maturing in June 2020 and the balance due in 2024. The Credit Facility agreement (the "Credit Agreement") provides that up to $500 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. The maturity and details of the Credit Facility are unchanged from the disclosure in the Company's Financial Condition and Capital Resources section in its Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2019. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain a minimum consolidated tangible net worth, a maximum leverage ratio and either a liquidity or an interest coverage ratio. These ratios are calculated per the Credit Facility agreement, which involves adjustments to GAAP financial measures. The Company believes it was in compliance with its debt covenants at February 29, 2020 . In addition to the Credit Facility, the Company has other letter of credit facilities with different financial institutions. Performance letters of credit are generally posted with regulatory bodies to guarantee the Company’s performance of certain development and construction activities. Financial letters of credit are generally posted in lieu of cash deposits on option contracts, for insurance risks, credit enhancements and as other collateral. Additionally, at February 29, 2020 , the Company had outstanding surety bonds including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects in the Company’s joint ventures) and financial surety bonds. Although significant development and construction activities have been completed related to these site improvements, these bonds are generally not released until all development and construction activities are completed. The Company does not presently anticipate any draws upon these bonds or letters of credit, but if any such draws occur, the Company does not believe they would have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The company's letter of credit and surety bond facilities are described below: February 29, November 30, (In thousands) Performance letters of credit $ 739,944 715,793 Financial letters of credit 208,871 184,075 Surety bonds 2,966,393 2,946,167 Anticipated future costs related to site improvements related to performance surety bonds 1,440,444 1,427,145 The Company's senior notes are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries and some of the Company's other subsidiaries. Although the guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several while they are in effect, (i) a subsidiary will cease to be a guarantor at any time when it is not directly or indirectly guaranteeing at least $75 million of debt of Lennar Corporation (the parent company), and (ii) a subsidiary will be released from its guarantee and any other obligations it may have regarding the senior notes if all or substantially all its assets, or all of its capital stock, are sold or otherwise disposed of. |

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Disclosures | Financial Instruments and Fair Value Disclosures The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held by the Company at February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , using available market information and what the Company believes to be appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies might have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The table excludes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, net and accounts payable, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

The fair values for instruments that do not have quoted market prices are estimated by the Company on the basis of discounted cash flows or other financial information. For notes and other debts payable, the fair values approximate their carrying value due to variable interest pricing terms and the short-term nature of the majority of the borrowings. Homebuilding —For senior notes and other debts payable, the fair value of fixed-rate borrowings is primarily based on quoted market prices and the fair value of variable-rate borrowings is based on expected future cash flows calculated using current market forward rates. Multifamily —For notes payable, the fair values approximate their carrying value due to variable interest pricing terms and the short-term nature of the borrowings. Lennar Other —The fair value for investments held-to-maturity is based on discounted cash flow. For notes payable, the fair values approximate their carrying value due to variable interest pricing terms and the short-term nature of the borrowings. Fair Value Measurements: GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value, expands disclosures about fair value measurements and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value summarized as follows: Level 1: Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2: Fair value determined using significant other observable inputs. Level 3: Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs. The Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below: (In thousands) Fair Value Hierarchy Fair Value at Fair Value at Financial Services Assets: Residential loans held-for-sale (1) Level 2 $ 870,294 1,447,715 LMF Commercial loans held-for-sale (2) Level 3 $ 300,402 197,224 Mortgage servicing rights Level 3 $ 12,576 24,679 Lennar Other: Investments available-for-sale Level 3 $ 53,402 — (1) The aggregate fair value of residential loans held-for-sale of $870.3 million at February 29, 2020 exceeded their aggregate principal balance of $835.6 million by $34.7 million . The aggregate fair value of residential loans held-for-sale of $1.4 billion at November 30, 2019 exceeded their aggregate principal balance of $1.4 billion by $42.2 million . (2) The aggregate fair value of LMF Commercial loans held-for-sale of $300.4 million at February 29, 2020 exceeded their aggregate principal balance of $294.1 million by $6.4 million . The aggregate fair value of LMF Commercial loans held-for-sale of $197.2 million at November 30, 2019 exceeded their aggregate principal balance of $196.3 million by $0.9 million . Financial Services residential loans held-for-sale - Fair value is based on independent quoted market prices, where available, or the prices for other mortgage whole loans with similar characteristics. Management believes carrying loans held-for-sale at fair value improves financial reporting by mitigating volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring the fair value of the loans and the derivative instruments used to economically hedge them without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. In addition, the Company recognizes the fair value of its rights to service a mortgage loan as revenue upon entering into an interest rate lock loan commitment with a borrower. The fair value of these servicing rights is included in Financial Services’ loans held-for-sale as of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 . Fair value of servicing rights is determined based on actual sales of servicing rights on loans with similar characteristics. LMF Commercial loans held-for-sale - The fair value of loans held-for-sale is calculated from model-based techniques that use discounted cash flow assumptions and the Company’s own estimates of CMBS spreads, market interest rate movements and the underlying loan credit quality. Loan values are calculated by allocating the change in value of an assumed CMBS capital structure to each loan. The value of an assumed CMBS capital structure is calculated, generally, by discounting the cash flows associated with each CMBS class at market interest rates and at the Company’s own estimate of CMBS spreads. The Company estimates CMBS spreads by observing the pricing of recent CMBS offerings, secondary CMBS markets, changes in the CMBX index, and general capital and commercial real estate market conditions. Considerations in estimating CMBS spreads include comparing the Company’s current loan portfolio with comparable CMBS offerings containing loans with similar duration, credit quality and collateral composition. These methods use unobservable inputs in estimating a discount rate that is used to assign a value to each loan. While the cash payments on the loans are contractual, the discount rate used and assumptions regarding the relative size of each class in the CMBS capital structure can significantly impact the valuation. Therefore, the estimates used could differ materially from the fair value determined when the loans are sold to a securitization trust. Mortgage servicing rights - Financial Services records mortgage servicing rights when it sells loans on a servicing-retained basis or through the acquisition or assumption of the right to service a financial asset. The fair value of the mortgage servicing rights is calculated using third-party valuations. The key assumptions, which are generally unobservable inputs, used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and delinquency rates and are noted below: Three Months Ended February 29, 2020 Unobservable inputs Mortgage prepayment rate 21% Discount rate 13% Delinquency rate 9% Lennar Other investments available-for-sale - The fair value of investments available-for-sale is calculated from model-based techniques that use discounted cash flow assumptions and the Company’s own estimates of CMBS spreads, market interest rate movements and the underlying loan credit quality. Loan values are calculated by allocating the change in value of an assumed CMBS capital structure to each loan. The value of an assumed CMBS capital structure is calculated, generally, by discounting the cash flows associated with each CMBS class at market interest rates and at the Company’s own estimate of CMBS spreads. The changes in fair values for Level 1 and Level 2 financial instruments measured on a recurring basis are shown below by financial instrument and financial statement line item: Three Months Ended February 29, February 28, (In thousands) 2020 2019 Changes in fair value included in Financial Services revenues: Loans held-for-sale $ (7,493 ) (10,120 ) Mortgage loan commitments 14,895 (259 ) Forward contracts (9,361 ) 8,853 Changes in fair value included in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax: Financial Services investments available-for-sale (46 ) 208 Interest on Financial Services loans held-for-sale and LMF Commercial loans held-for-sale measured at fair value is calculated based on the interest rate of the loans and recorded as revenues in the Financial Services’ statement of operations.

Finished homes and construction in progress are included within inventories. Inventories are stated at cost unless the inventory within a community is determined to be impaired, in which case the impaired inventory is written down to fair value. The Company disclosed its accounting policy related to inventories and its review for indicators of impairment in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in its Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2019 . The Company estimates the fair value of inventory evaluated for impairment based on market conditions and assumptions made by management at the time the inventory is evaluated, which may differ materially from actual results if market conditions or assumptions change. For example, changes in market conditions and other specific developments or changes in assumptions may cause the Company to re-evaluate its strategy regarding previously impaired inventory, as well as inventory not currently impaired but for which indicators of impairment may arise if market deterioration occurs, and certain other assets that could result in further valuation adjustments and/or additional write-offs of option deposits and pre-acquisition costs due to abandonment of those options contracts. The Company disclosed its accounting policy related to inventories and its review for indicators of impairment in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in its Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2019. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its active communities for indicators of potential impairments. As of February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019 , there were 1,253 and 1,287 active communities, excluding unconsolidated entities, respectively.

Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities The Company evaluated the joint venture agreements of its joint ventures that were formed or that had reconsideration events, such as changes in the governing documents or to debt arrangements during the three months ended February 29, 2020 . Based on the Company's evaluation, the Company consolidated one entity that had a total assets and liabilities of $49.4 million and $0.9 million , respectively and deconsolidated an entity that had an immaterial amount of assets and liabilities. The carrying amount of our consolidated VIE's assets and non-recourse liabilities are disclosed in the footnote to the condensed consolidated balance sheets. A VIE’s assets can only be used to settle obligations of that VIE. The VIEs are not guarantors of the Company’s senior notes or other debts payable. The assets held by a VIE usually are collateral for that VIE’s debt. The Company and other partners do not generally have an obligation to make capital contributions to a VIE unless the Company and/or the other partner(s) have entered into debt guarantees with a VIE’s banks. Other than debt guarantee agreements with a VIE’s banks, there are no liquidity arrangements or agreements to fund capital or purchase assets that could require the Company to provide financial support to a VIE. While the Company has option contracts to purchase land from certain of its VIEs, the Company is not required to purchase the assets and could walk away from the contracts. Unconsolidated VIEs At February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the Company’s recorded investments in VIEs that are unconsolidated and its estimated maximum exposure to loss were as follows: February 29, 2020 November 30, 2019 (In thousands) Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss (1) Investments in Lennar’s Maximum Homebuilding $ 78,213 78,379 80,939 81,118 Multifamily (2) 556,271 757,902 533,018 768,651 Financial Services 165,303 165,303 166,012 166,012 Lennar Other 6,765 6,765 60,882 60,882 $ 806,552 1,008,349 840,851 1,076,663 (1) Limited to investments in unconsolidated VIEs, except as noted below. (2) As of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , the maximum exposure to loss of Multifamily's investments in unconsolidated VIEs was primarily limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to the remaining equity commitment of $191.3 million and $224.2 million , respectively, to fund LMV I and LMV II for future expenditures related to the construction and development of its projects. While these entities are VIEs, the Company has determined that the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance is generally shared and the Company and its partners are not de-facto agents. While the Company generally manages the day-to-day operations of the VIEs, each of these VIEs has an executive committee made up of representatives from each partner. The members of the executive committee have equal votes and major decisions require unanimous consent and approval from all members. The Company does not have the unilateral ability to exercise participating voting rights without partner consent. There are no liquidity arrangements or agreements to fund capital or purchase assets that could require the Company to provide financial support to the VIEs. Except for the unconsolidated VIEs discussed above, the Company and the other partners did not guarantee any debt of the other unconsolidated VIEs. While the Company has option contracts to purchase land from certain of its unconsolidated VIEs, the Company is not required to purchase the assets and could walk away from the contracts. Option Contracts The Company has access to land through option contracts, which generally enable it to control portions of properties owned by third parties (including land funds) and unconsolidated entities until the Company has determined whether to exercise the options. The Company evaluates all option contracts for land to determine whether they are VIEs and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of certain of these option contracts. Although the Company does not have legal title to the optioned land, if the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary or makes a significant deposit for optioned land, it may need to consolidate the land under option at the purchase price of the optioned land. During the three months ended February 29, 2020 , consolidated inventory not owned increased by $104.3 million with a corresponding increase to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 29, 2020 . The increase was primarily related to the consolidation of option contracts, partially offset by the Company exercising its options to acquire land under previously consolidated contracts. To reflect the purchase price of the inventory consolidated, the Company had a net reclass related to option deposits from consolidated inventory not owned to land under development in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 29, 2020 . The liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned primarily represent the difference between the option exercise prices for the optioned land and the Company’s cash deposits. The Company’s exposure to losses related to its option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities consisted of its non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs totaling $306.0 million and $320.5 million at February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , respectively. Additionally, for both periods, the Company had posted $75.0 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts as of February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 , respectively. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities | Commitments and Contingent Liabilities The Company is a party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company is also a party to various lawsuits involving purchases and sales of real property. These lawsuits include claims regarding representations and warranties made in connection with the transfer of properties and disputes regarding the obligation to purchase or sell properties. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these claims or lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on its business or financial position. However, the financial effect of litigation concerning purchases and sales of property may depend upon the value of the subject property, which may have changed from the time the agreement for purchase or sale was entered into. Leases The Company has entered into agreements to lease certain office facilities and equipment under operating leases. The Company recognizes leases expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and right-of-use lease liabilities are recorded on the balance sheet for all leases, except leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Many of the Company's leases include options to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's option and therefore renewal option payments have not been included in the ROU assets or lease liabilities. The following table includes additional information about the Company's leases: (Dollars in thousands) February 29, 2020 Right-of-use assets $ 143,690 Lease liabilities $ 150,779 Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years) 3.4 Weighted-average discount rate 3.1 % The Company has entered into agreements to lease certain office facilities and equipment under operating leases. Future minimum payments under the noncancellable leases in effect at February 29, 2020 were as follows: (Dollars in thousands) Lease Payments 2020 $ 30,818 2021 38,278 2022 29,061 2023 21,754 2024 15,311 2025 and thereafter 28,550 Total future minimum lease payments (1) $ 163,772 Less: Interest (2) 12,993 Present value of lease liabilities (2) $ 150,779 (1) Total future minimum lease payments exclude variable lease costs of $13.4 million and short-term lease costs of $2.8 million . This also does not include minimum lease payments for executed and legally enforceable leases that have not yet commenced. As of February 29, 2020 , the minimum lease payments for these leases that have not yet commenced were immaterial. (2) The Company's leases do not include a readily determinable implicit rate. As such, the Company has estimated the discount rate for these leases to determine the present value of lease payments at the lease commencement date or as of December 1, 2019, which was the effective date of ASU 2016-02. As of February 29, 2020 , the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate used in calculating the lease liabilities were 3.4 years and 3.1% , respectively. The Company recognized the lease liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets within other liabilities. Rental expense for the three months ended February 29, 2020 , was $20.7 million . Payments on lease liabilities during the three months ended February 29, 2020 totaled $17.4 million . Rental expense includes costs for all leases. On occasion, the Company may sublease rented space which is no longer used for the Company's operations. For the three months ended February 29, 2020 , the Company had an immaterial amount of sublease income. |

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements | New Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. ASU 2016-13 will require immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of many financial assets, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2020 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments —Credit Losses and ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments —Credit Losses (Topic 326) Targeted Transition Relief . These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU 2016-13. Instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the credit losses standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-13. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 removes the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Supplemental Financial Information | Supplemental Financial Information The indentures governing the Company’s senior notes require that, if any of the Company’s 100% owned subsidiaries, other than its finance company subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries, directly or indirectly guarantee at least $75 million principal amount of debt of Lennar Corporation, those subsidiaries must also guarantee Lennar Corporation’s obligations with regard to its senior notes. The entities referred to as "guarantors" in the following tables are subsidiaries that are not finance company subsidiaries or foreign subsidiaries and were guaranteeing the senior notes because at February 29, 2020 they were guaranteeing Lennar Corporation's letter of credit facilities and its Credit Facility, disclosed in Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several and the guarantor subsidiaries are 100% directly or indirectly owned by Lennar Corporation. A subsidiary's guarantee of Lennar senior notes will be suspended at any time when it is not directly or indirectly guaranteeing at least $75 million principal amount of debt of Lennar Corporation, and a subsidiary will be released from its guarantee and any other obligations it may have regarding the senior notes if all or substantially all its assets, or all of its capital stock, are sold or otherwise disposed of. For purposes of the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows included in the following supplemental financial information, the Company's accounting policy is to treat cash received by Lennar Corporation (the "Parent") from its subsidiaries, to the extent of net earnings from such subsidiaries as a dividend and accordingly a return on investment within cash flows from operating activities. Distributions of capital received by the Parent from its subsidiaries are reflected as cash flows from investing activities. The cash outflows associated with the return on investment dividends and distributions of capital received by the Parent are reflected by the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor subsidiaries in the Dividends line item within cash flows from financing activities. All other cash flows between the Parent and its subsidiaries represent the settlement of receivables and payables between such entities in conjunction with the Parent's centralized cash management arrangement with its subsidiaries, which operates with the characteristics of a revolving credit facility, and are accordingly reflected net in the Intercompany line item within cash flows from investing activities for the Parent and net in the Intercompany line item within cash flows from financing activities for the Guarantor and Non-Guarantor subsidiaries. Supplemental information for the subsidiaries that were guarantor subsidiaries at February 29, 2020 was as follows: Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet February 29, 2020 (In thousands) Lennar

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Event | Subsequent Event Subsequent to February 29, 2020, the United States has been severely impacted by a coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. While response to the COVID-19 outbreak continues to rapidly evolve, it has led to stay-at-home orders and social distancing guidelines that have seriously disrupted activities in large segments of the economy. Presently, certain markets in which we do business have stopped our construction and sales of homes. Although we continue to build and sell homes in our other markets, traffic in our Welcome Home Centers and sales have slowed significantly. While the extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments, the outbreak and associated economic impacts could result in a material impact to the Company's future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Consolidation |
Basis of Accounting | The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2019 . In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been made. The Company has historically experienced, and expects to continue to experience, variability in quarterly results. The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended February 29, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
New Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification determined whether the lease expense was recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company beginning December 1, 2019. The Company elected the available practical expedients on adoption. Additionally, in preparation for adoption of the standard, the Company has implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information. The standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) or our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result of the adoption, as of February 29, 2020 , the Company has recorded $143.7 million of ROU assets and $150.8 million of lease liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets within other assets and other liabilities of the respective segments. New Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. ASU 2016-13 will require immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of many financial assets, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2020 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments —Credit Losses and ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments —Credit Losses (Topic 326) Targeted Transition Relief . These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU 2016-13. Instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the credit losses standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-13. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 removes the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. |
