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 VIEs (see Note 15) 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, 2015 . 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 and nine months ended August 31, 2016 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. Reclassifications/Revisions |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating and Reporting Segments | (2) Operating and Reporting Segments The Company’s operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments, based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, geography and product type. The Company’s reportable segments consist of: (1) Homebuilding East (2) Homebuilding Central (3) Homebuilding West (4) Homebuilding Houston (5) Lennar Financial Services (6) Rialto (7) Lennar Multifamily In the first quarter of 2016, the Company made the decision to divide the Southeast Florida operating division into two operating segments to maximize operational efficiencies given the continued growth of the division. As a result of this change in management structure, the Company re-evaluated its reportable segments and determined that neither operating segment met the reportable criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting . The Company aggregated these operating segments into the Homebuilding East reportable segment as these divisions exhibit similar economic characteristics, geography and product type as the other divisions in Homebuilding East. All prior year segment information has been restated to conform with the 2016 presentation. The change in the reportable segments has no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the periods presented. 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, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and other interest expense of 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, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas (1) West: California and Nevada Houston: Houston, Texas Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington (1) Texas in the Central reportable segment excludes Houston, Texas, which is its own reportable segment. Operations of the Lennar Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of the Company’s homes and others. The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period 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. Lennar Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Lennar Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations as well as in other states. Operations of the Rialto segment include raising, investing and managing third-party capital, originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans as well as investing its own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, properties and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment and operating platform to underwrite, diligence, acquire, manage, workout and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, properties and real estate related securities as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto’s operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from gains from securitization transactions and interest income from the Rialto Mortgage Finance (“RMF”) business, interest income associated with portfolios of real estate loans acquired and other portfolios of real estate loans and assets acquired, asset management, due diligence and underwriting fees derived from the real estate investment funds managed by the Rialto segment, fees for sub-advisory services, other income (expense), net and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the costs incurred by the segment for managing portfolios, costs related to RMF and other general and administrative expenses. Operations of the Lennar Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities and management fees generated from joint ventures and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the cost of sales of land, expenses related to construction activities and general and administrative expenses. Each reportable segment follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2015 . Operational results of each segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

(2) For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included a gain of $8.7 million on the sale of a clubhouse. (3) For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included the Company's share of costs associated with the FivePoint combination and the Company's share of net operating losses associated with the new FivePoint unconsolidated entity, partially offset by $17.4 million of management fee income related to a Lennar Homebuilding strategic joint venture for the three months ended August 31, 2016 and $30.1 million of management fee income and a profit participation related to Lennar Homebuilding's strategic joint ventures for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 . For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , operating earnings included $21.5 million and $64.5 million Lennar Financial Services Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Lennar Financial Services segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 110,164 106,777 Restricted cash 13,910 13,961 Receivables, net (1) 374,769 242,808 Loans held-for-sale (2) 800,139 843,252 Loans held-for-investment, net 29,704 30,998 Investments held-to-maturity 34,746 40,174 Investments available-for-sale (3) 51,535 42,827 Goodwill 39,838 38,854 Other (4) 72,751 66,186 $ 1,527,556 1,425,837 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 913,040 858,300 Other (5) 227,175 225,678 $ 1,140,215 1,083,978 (1) Receivables, net primarily related to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. (2) Loans held-for-sale related to unsold 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. (4) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other assets included mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $20.7 million and $13.1 million , respectively, and mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value of $18.4 million and $16.8 million , respectively. In addition, other assets also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $0.5 million as of November 30, 2015 . (5) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other liabilities included $58.4 million and $65.0 million , respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to construction defects, general liability and workers’ compensation. Other liabilities also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $2.0 million as of August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , the Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (1) $ 300,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (2) 450,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures June 2017 600,000 Total $ 1,350,000 (1) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to September 2017. (2) Maximum aggregate commitment includes an uncommitted amount of $250 million . The Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its 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. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $912.7 million and $858.3 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $960.4 million and $916.9 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting on receivables on loans sold but not yet paid. Without the facilities, the Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Substantially, all of the loans the Lennar 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. Over the last several years there has been an industry-wide effort by purchasers to defray their 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 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 Lennar 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 Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period $ 20,994 13,660 19,492 11,818 Provision for losses 1,288 1,147 3,186 3,174 Adjustments to pre-existing provisions for losses from changes in estimates 1,224 — 1,224 — Payments/settlements (17 ) — (413 ) (185 ) Loan origination liabilities, end of period $ 23,489 14,807 23,489 14,807 Rialto Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Rialto segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 133,103 150,219 Restricted cash (1) 6,499 15,061 Receivables, net (2) — 154,948 Loans held-for-sale (3) 228,931 316,275 Loans receivable, net 145,813 164,826 Real estate owned - held-for-sale 170,524 183,052 Real estate owned - held-and-used, net 111,619 153,717 Investments in unconsolidated entities 241,680 224,869 Investments held-to-maturity 60,928 25,625 Other 97,556 116,908 $ 1,196,653 1,505,500 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 576,448 771,728 Other 56,114 94,496 $ 632,562 866,224 (1) Restricted cash primarily consists of upfront deposits and application fees RMF receives before originating loans and is recognized as income once the loan has been originated as well as cash held in escrow by the Company’s loan servicer provider on behalf of customers and lenders and is disbursed in accordance with agreements between the transacting parties. (2) Receivables, net primarily relate to loans sold but not settled as of November 30, 2015 . (3) Loans held-for-sale relate to unsold loans originated by RMF carried at fair value. Rialto costs and expenses included loan impairments of $4.3 million and $11.1 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , respectively, and $4.5 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , respectively, primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loans portfolio (before noncontrolling interests). For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 Rialto operating loss included a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $6.0 million and $10.6 million , respectively. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Rialto operating earnings included a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $2.0 million and $4.5 million , respectively. The following is a detail of Rialto other income (expense), net: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Realized gains on REO sales, net $ 4,337 6,178 13,575 13,852 Unrealized losses on transfer of loans receivable to REO and impairments, net (6,617 ) (3,124 ) (12,166 ) (7,892 ) REO and other expenses (13,006 ) (14,714 ) (39,964 ) (43,123 ) Rental and other income (1) 7,674 12,832 10,667 37,191 Rialto other income (expense), net $ (7,612 ) 1,172 (27,888 ) 28 (1) Rental and other income for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , included a $16.0 million write-off of uncollectible receivables related to a hospital, which was acquired through the resolution of one of Rialto's loans from a 2010 portfolio. The hospital is managed by a third-party management company. Loans Receivable The following table represents loans receivable, net by type: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Nonaccrual loans: FDIC and Bank Portfolios $ 62,092 88,694 Accrual loans 83,721 76,132 Loans receivable, net $ 145,813 164,826 The nonaccrual loan portfolios consist primarily of loans acquired at a discount. In 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies ("LLCs") in partnership with the FDIC (“FDIC Portfolios”). The LLCs met the accounting definition of VIEs and since the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated the LLCs. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary because it has the power to direct the activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts. At August 31, 2016 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $251.5 million and $12.1 million , respectively. At November 30, 2015 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $355.2 million and $11.3 million , respectively. In addition in 2010, Rialto acquired 400 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“Bank Portfolios”) and over 300 REO properties from three financial institutions. Based on the nature of these loans, the portfolios are managed by assessing the risks related to the likelihood of collection of payments from borrowers and guarantors, as well as monitoring the value of the underlying collateral. As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , management classified all loans receivable within the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios as nonaccrual loans as forecasted principal and interest cannot be reasonably estimated, and therefore, accounts for these assets in accordance with ASC 310-10, Receivables . As of August 31, 2016 , accrual loans included $83.7 million of floating and fixed rate commercial property loans maturing between October 2017 and August 2018. The following tables represent nonaccrual loans in the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios accounted for under ASC 310-10 aggregated by collateral type: August 31, 2016 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 96,220 44,752 124 44,876 Single family homes 18,283 2,166 4,984 7,150 Commercial properties 11,448 1,372 508 1,880 Other 56,443 278 7,908 8,186 Loans receivable $ 182,394 48,568 13,524 62,092 November 30, 2015 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 145,417 59,740 1,165 60,905 Single family homes 39,659 8,344 3,459 11,803 Commercial properties 13,458 1,368 1,085 2,453 Other 78,279 — 13,533 13,533 Loans receivable $ 276,813 69,452 19,242 88,694 The average recorded investment in impaired loans was approximately $75 million and $112 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. In order to assess the risk associated with each risk category, management evaluates the forecasted cash flows and the value of the underlying collateral securing the loans receivable on a quarterly basis or when an event occurs that suggests a decline in the collateral’s fair value. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve established through provisions for loan losses charged against Rialto’s operating earnings. For nonaccrual loans, the risk relates to a decline in the value of the collateral securing the outstanding obligation. If the recorded investment in the nonaccrual loan exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized through an allowance for loan losses. The activity in the Company's allowance rollforward related to nonaccrual loans was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Allowance on nonaccrual loans, beginning of the period $ 29,186 40,593 35,625 58,326 Provision for loan losses 4,330 4,497 11,051 7,306 Charge-offs (6,924 ) (6,707 ) (20,084 ) (27,249 ) Allowance on nonaccrual loans, end of the period $ 26,592 38,383 26,592 38,383 For accrual loans an allowance is calculated based on a review of individual loans considered impaired. The analysis of impaired losses may be based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective loan rate, an observable market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral on collateral dependent loans. In determining the collectability of certain loans, management also considers the fair value of any underlying collateral. Based on Rialto's segment assessment, no allowance for loan losses were recorded for its accrual loans as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 . Real Estate Owned The acquisition of properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as REO held-and-used, net and REO held-for-sale. When a property is determined to be held-and-used, net, the asset is recorded at fair value and depreciated over its useful life using the straight line method. When certain criteria set forth in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment , are met, the property is classified as held-for-sale. When a real estate asset is classified as held-for-sale, the property is recorded at the lower of its cost basis or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of REO held-for-sale is determined in part by placing reliance on third-party appraisals of the properties and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity. The following tables represent the activity in REO : Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-for-sale, beginning of period $ 180,547 195,386 183,052 190,535 Improvements 575 1,023 2,170 4,318 Sales (18,889 ) (26,575 ) (52,840 ) (74,713 ) Impairments and unrealized losses (6,669 ) (3,127 ) (15,016 ) (7,499 ) Transfers from held-and-used, net (1) 14,960 19,031 53,158 73,097 REO - held-for-sale, end of period $ 170,524 185,738 170,524 185,738 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-and-used, net, beginning of period $ 125,406 213,748 153,717 255,795 Additions 1,013 1,367 12,316 15,710 Improvements 706 309 828 1,737 Impairments (23 ) (7 ) (826 ) (1,420 ) Depreciation (523 ) (520 ) (1,258 ) (1,895 ) Transfers to held-for-sale (1) (14,960 ) (19,031 ) (53,158 ) (73,097 ) Other — — — (964 ) REO - held-and-used, net, end of period $ 111,619 195,866 111,619 195,866 (1) During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Rialto segment transferred certain properties from REO held-and-used, net to REO held-for-sale as a result of changes in the disposition strategy of the real estate assets. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the Company recorded net gains (losses) of ($0.4) million and $1.6 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , the Company recorded net losses of $0.3 million and $0.1 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. These net gains (losses) are recorded in Rialto other income (expense), net. Rialto Mortgage Finance - loans held-for-sale During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $1.2 billion of which $1.2 billion were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $55.7 million were recorded as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $1.3 billion of loans into seven separate securitizations. During the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $2.0 billion and sold $1.6 billion of loans into eight separate securitizations. As of November 30, 2015 , $151.8 million of the originated loans were sold into a securitization trust but not settled and thus were included as receivables, net. Notes and Other Debts Payable The Rialto segment has $350 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% senior notes due 2018 ("7.00% Senior Notes"). Interest on the 7.00% Senior Notes is due semi-annually. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of the 7.00% Senior Notes was $348.5 million and $347.9 million , respectively. Under the indenture, Rialto is subject to certain covenants limiting, among other things, Rialto’s ability to incur indebtedness, to make investments, to make distributions to or enter into transactions with Lennar or to create liens, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. Rialto also has quarterly and annual reporting requirements, similar to an SEC registrant, to holders of the 7.00% Senior Notes. The Company believes Rialto was in compliance with its debt covenants at August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , Rialto warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (one year extension) (1) (2) $ 400,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures January 2017 (1) 250,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017 (1) (3) 100,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures August 2018 (two - one year extensions) (4) 100,000 Total $ 850,000 (1) RMF uses these facilities to finance its loan origination and securitization activities. (2) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to April 2017, with the option for an additional six month extension, and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $500 million . (3) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility was amended and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $200 million . (4) In 2015, Rialto entered into a separate repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans. Loans financed under this facility are held as accrual loans within loans receivable, net. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , borrowings under this facility were $36.3 million . Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's loan originations and securitization activities were $106.6 million and $317.1 million as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. The facilities require immediate repayment of the 75% interest in the secured commercial loans when the loans are sold in a securitization and the proceeds are collected. These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. In 2010, Rialto paid $310 million for the Bank Portfolios and for over 300 REO properties, of which $124 million was financed through a 5 -year senior unsecured note provided by one of the selling institutions for which the maturity was subsequently extended. The remaining balance is due in December 2016. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount related to the 5 -year senior unsecured note was $30.3 million . In May 2014, the Rialto segment issued $73.8 million principal amount of notes through a structured note offering (the “Structured Notes”) collateralized by certain assets originally acquired in the Bank Portfolios transaction at a price of 100% , with an annual coupon rate of 2.85% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses and hold backs for a cash reserve, were $69.1 million . In November 2014, the Rialto segment issued an additional $20.8 million of the Structured Notes at a price of 99.5% , with an annual coupon rate of 5.0% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $20.7 million . The estimated final payment date of the Structured Notes is November 15, 2017 . As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount, net of debt issuance costs, related to the Structured Notes was $27.9 million and $31.3 million , respectively. Investments All of Rialto's investments in funds have the attributes of an investment company in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies , as amended by ASU 2013-08, Financial Services - Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements, the attributes of which are different from the attributes that would cause a company to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the funds in which Rialto has investments in are recorded at fair value with increases/decreases in fair value recorded in their respective statements of operations and the Company’s share is recorded in Rialto equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities in the Company's statement of operations.

During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Rialto received $5.0 million and $16.2 million of such advanced distributions. These advance distributions are not subject to clawbacks and are included in Rialto's revenues. During 2015, Rialto adopted a Carried Interest Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), under which participating employees in the aggregate may receive up to 40% of the equity units of a limited liability company (a "Carried Interest Entity") that is entitled to distributions made by a fund or other investment vehicle (a "Fund") m |

Lennar Homebuilding Investments in Unconsolidated Entities | Lennar Homebuilding Investments in Unconsolidated Entities Summarized condensed financial information on a combined 100% basis related to Lennar Homebuilding’s unconsolidated entities that are accounted for by the equity method was as follows: Statements of Operations Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Revenues $ 43,889 141,599 352,251 765,346 Costs and expenses 110,649 127,678 409,219 580,696 Other income — 46,400 — 49,343 Net earnings (loss) of unconsolidated entities $ (66,760 ) 60,321 (56,968 ) 233,993 Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities $ (18,034 ) 13,300 (24,667 ) 48,693 For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was primarily attributable to the Company's share of costs associated with the FivePoint combination and the Company’s share of net operating losses associated with the new FivePoint unconsolidated entity. For the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , Lennar Homebuilding equity in loss from unconsolidated entities was partially offset by equity in earnings from one of the Company's unconsolidated entities primarily due to sales of homesites to third parties. For the three months ended August 31, 2015 , Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings included $21.5 million of equity in earnings from one of the Company's unconsolidated entities primarily due to a gain on debt extinguishment and sales of approximately 40 homesites to third parties. For the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings included $64.5 million of equity in earnings from one of the Company's unconsolidated entities primarily due to sales of approximately 700 homesites and a commercial property to third parties and a gain on debt extinguishment. In addition, for the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , net earnings of unconsolidated entities included sales of 300 homesites to Lennar by one of the Company’s unconsolidated entities that resulted in $49.3 million of gross profit, of which the Company's portion was deferred. Balance Sheets (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 369,203 248,980 Inventories 3,798,070 3,059,054 Other assets 1,354,826 465,404 $ 5,522,099 3,773,438 Liabilities and equity: Accounts payable and other liabilities $ 854,568 288,192 Debt 865,496 792,886 Equity 3,802,035 2,692,360 $ 5,522,099 3,773,438 On May 2, 2016 (the “Closing Date”), the Company contributed, or obtained the right to contribute, its investment in three strategic joint ventures previously managed by FivePoint Communities in exchange for an investment in a newly formed FivePoint entity. The fair values of the assets contributed to the newly formed FivePoint entity, included within the unconsolidated entities summarized condensed balance sheet presented above, are preliminary and will be adjusted when additional information is obtained during the transaction’s measurement period (a period of up to one year from the Closing Date) that may change the fair value allocation as of the acquisition date. A portion of the assets of one of the three strategic joint ventures was retained by Lennar and its venture partner in a new unconsolidated entity. The transactions did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial position or cash flows. The Company recorded its share of combination costs in equity in loss from unconsolidated entities on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 . As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the Company’s recorded investments in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities were $796.5 million and $741.6 million , respectively, while the underlying equity in Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities partners’ net assets as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 was $1.2 billion and $839.5 million , respectively. The basis difference is 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 newly formed FivePoint entity, contributing non-monetary assets to an unconsolidated entity with a higher fair value than book value and deferring equity in earnings on land sales to the Company. The Lennar 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 Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities in which the Company has investments, including Lennar's maximum recourse exposure, were as follows: (Dollars in thousands) August 31, November 30, Non-recourse bank debt and other debt (partner’s share of several recourse) $ 48,792 50,411 Non-recourse land seller debt and other debt 323,995 324,000 Non-recourse debt with completion guarantees 137,152 146,760 Non-recourse debt without completion guarantees 306,929 260,734 Non-recourse debt to the Company 816,868 781,905 The Company’s maximum recourse exposure (1) 48,628 10,981 Total debt $ 865,496 792,886 The Company’s maximum recourse exposure as a % of total JV debt 6 % 1 % (1) The increase in the Company's maximum recourse exposure was primarily related to the Company providing a repayment guarantee on an unconsolidated entity's debt. In most instances in which the Company has guaranteed debt of a Lennar Homebuilding 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 Lennar 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 construction of the improvements for which the financing was obtained. If the 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 Lennar 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 August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the fair values of the repayment guarantees and completion guarantees were not material. The Company believes that as of August 31, 2016 |

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”) are considered participating securities. Basic and diluted earnings per share were calculated as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands, except per share amounts) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Numerator: Net earnings attributable to Lennar $ 235,842 223,312 598,391 521,291 Less: distributed earnings allocated to nonvested shares 81 91 256 271 Less: undistributed earnings allocated to nonvested shares 2,232 2,313 5,798 5,431 Numerator for basic earnings per share 233,529 220,908 592,337 515,589 Less: net amount attributable to noncontrolling interests in Rialto's Carried Interest Incentive Plan (1) 258 1,044 864 2,842 Plus: interest on 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2021 964 1,982 4,836 5,946 Plus: undistributed earnings allocated to convertible shares 2,232 2,313 5,797 5,430 Less: undistributed earnings reallocated to convertible shares 2,162 2,093 5,484 4,870 Numerator for diluted earnings per share $ 234,305 222,066 596,622 519,253 Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted average common shares outstanding 223,549 206,439 215,814 204,120 Effect of dilutive securities: Share-based payments 3 7 4 9 Convertible senior notes 8,266 24,102 14,399 26,506 Denominator for diluted earnings per share - weighted average common shares outstanding 231,818 230,548 230,217 230,635 Basic earnings per share $ 1.04 1.07 2.74 2.53 Diluted earnings per share $ 1.01 0.96 2.59 2.25 (1) The amounts presented above relate to Rialto's Carried Interest Incentive Plan adopted in June 2015 (see Note 8) and represents the difference between the advanced tax distributions received by Rialto's subsidiary and the amount Lennar, as the parent company, is assumed to own.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating and Reporting Segments | (2) Operating and Reporting Segments The Company’s operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments, based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, geography and product type. The Company’s reportable segments consist of: (1) Homebuilding East (2) Homebuilding Central (3) Homebuilding West (4) Homebuilding Houston (5) Lennar Financial Services (6) Rialto (7) Lennar Multifamily In the first quarter of 2016, the Company made the decision to divide the Southeast Florida operating division into two operating segments to maximize operational efficiencies given the continued growth of the division. As a result of this change in management structure, the Company re-evaluated its reportable segments and determined that neither operating segment met the reportable criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting . The Company aggregated these operating segments into the Homebuilding East reportable segment as these divisions exhibit similar economic characteristics, geography and product type as the other divisions in Homebuilding East. All prior year segment information has been restated to conform with the 2016 presentation. The change in the reportable segments has no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the periods presented. 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, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and other interest expense of 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, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas (1) West: California and Nevada Houston: Houston, Texas Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington (1) Texas in the Central reportable segment excludes Houston, Texas, which is its own reportable segment. Operations of the Lennar Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of the Company’s homes and others. The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period 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. Lennar Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Lennar Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations as well as in other states. Operations of the Rialto segment include raising, investing and managing third-party capital, originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans as well as investing its own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, properties and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment and operating platform to underwrite, diligence, acquire, manage, workout and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, properties and real estate related securities as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto’s operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from gains from securitization transactions and interest income from the Rialto Mortgage Finance (“RMF”) business, interest income associated with portfolios of real estate loans acquired and other portfolios of real estate loans and assets acquired, asset management, due diligence and underwriting fees derived from the real estate investment funds managed by the Rialto segment, fees for sub-advisory services, other income (expense), net and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the costs incurred by the segment for managing portfolios, costs related to RMF and other general and administrative expenses. Operations of the Lennar Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities and management fees generated from joint ventures and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the cost of sales of land, expenses related to construction activities and general and administrative expenses. Each reportable segment follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2015 . Operational results of each segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

(2) For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included a gain of $8.7 million on the sale of a clubhouse. (3) For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included the Company's share of costs associated with the FivePoint combination and the Company's share of net operating losses associated with the new FivePoint unconsolidated entity, partially offset by $17.4 million of management fee income related to a Lennar Homebuilding strategic joint venture for the three months ended August 31, 2016 and $30.1 million of management fee income and a profit participation related to Lennar Homebuilding's strategic joint ventures for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 . For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , operating earnings included $21.5 million and $64.5 million Lennar Financial Services Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Lennar Financial Services segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 110,164 106,777 Restricted cash 13,910 13,961 Receivables, net (1) 374,769 242,808 Loans held-for-sale (2) 800,139 843,252 Loans held-for-investment, net 29,704 30,998 Investments held-to-maturity 34,746 40,174 Investments available-for-sale (3) 51,535 42,827 Goodwill 39,838 38,854 Other (4) 72,751 66,186 $ 1,527,556 1,425,837 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 913,040 858,300 Other (5) 227,175 225,678 $ 1,140,215 1,083,978 (1) Receivables, net primarily related to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. (2) Loans held-for-sale related to unsold 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. (4) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other assets included mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $20.7 million and $13.1 million , respectively, and mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value of $18.4 million and $16.8 million , respectively. In addition, other assets also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $0.5 million as of November 30, 2015 . (5) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other liabilities included $58.4 million and $65.0 million , respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to construction defects, general liability and workers’ compensation. Other liabilities also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $2.0 million as of August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , the Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (1) $ 300,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (2) 450,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures June 2017 600,000 Total $ 1,350,000 (1) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to September 2017. (2) Maximum aggregate commitment includes an uncommitted amount of $250 million . The Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its 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. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $912.7 million and $858.3 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $960.4 million and $916.9 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting on receivables on loans sold but not yet paid. Without the facilities, the Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Substantially, all of the loans the Lennar 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. Over the last several years there has been an industry-wide effort by purchasers to defray their 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 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 Lennar 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 Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period $ 20,994 13,660 19,492 11,818 Provision for losses 1,288 1,147 3,186 3,174 Adjustments to pre-existing provisions for losses from changes in estimates 1,224 — 1,224 — Payments/settlements (17 ) — (413 ) (185 ) Loan origination liabilities, end of period $ 23,489 14,807 23,489 14,807 Rialto Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Rialto segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 133,103 150,219 Restricted cash (1) 6,499 15,061 Receivables, net (2) — 154,948 Loans held-for-sale (3) 228,931 316,275 Loans receivable, net 145,813 164,826 Real estate owned - held-for-sale 170,524 183,052 Real estate owned - held-and-used, net 111,619 153,717 Investments in unconsolidated entities 241,680 224,869 Investments held-to-maturity 60,928 25,625 Other 97,556 116,908 $ 1,196,653 1,505,500 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 576,448 771,728 Other 56,114 94,496 $ 632,562 866,224 (1) Restricted cash primarily consists of upfront deposits and application fees RMF receives before originating loans and is recognized as income once the loan has been originated as well as cash held in escrow by the Company’s loan servicer provider on behalf of customers and lenders and is disbursed in accordance with agreements between the transacting parties. (2) Receivables, net primarily relate to loans sold but not settled as of November 30, 2015 . (3) Loans held-for-sale relate to unsold loans originated by RMF carried at fair value. Rialto costs and expenses included loan impairments of $4.3 million and $11.1 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , respectively, and $4.5 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , respectively, primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loans portfolio (before noncontrolling interests). For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 Rialto operating loss included a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $6.0 million and $10.6 million , respectively. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Rialto operating earnings included a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $2.0 million and $4.5 million , respectively. The following is a detail of Rialto other income (expense), net: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Realized gains on REO sales, net $ 4,337 6,178 13,575 13,852 Unrealized losses on transfer of loans receivable to REO and impairments, net (6,617 ) (3,124 ) (12,166 ) (7,892 ) REO and other expenses (13,006 ) (14,714 ) (39,964 ) (43,123 ) Rental and other income (1) 7,674 12,832 10,667 37,191 Rialto other income (expense), net $ (7,612 ) 1,172 (27,888 ) 28 (1) Rental and other income for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , included a $16.0 million write-off of uncollectible receivables related to a hospital, which was acquired through the resolution of one of Rialto's loans from a 2010 portfolio. The hospital is managed by a third-party management company. Loans Receivable The following table represents loans receivable, net by type: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Nonaccrual loans: FDIC and Bank Portfolios $ 62,092 88,694 Accrual loans 83,721 76,132 Loans receivable, net $ 145,813 164,826 The nonaccrual loan portfolios consist primarily of loans acquired at a discount. In 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies ("LLCs") in partnership with the FDIC (“FDIC Portfolios”). The LLCs met the accounting definition of VIEs and since the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated the LLCs. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary because it has the power to direct the activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts. At August 31, 2016 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $251.5 million and $12.1 million , respectively. At November 30, 2015 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $355.2 million and $11.3 million , respectively. In addition in 2010, Rialto acquired 400 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“Bank Portfolios”) and over 300 REO properties from three financial institutions. Based on the nature of these loans, the portfolios are managed by assessing the risks related to the likelihood of collection of payments from borrowers and guarantors, as well as monitoring the value of the underlying collateral. As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , management classified all loans receivable within the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios as nonaccrual loans as forecasted principal and interest cannot be reasonably estimated, and therefore, accounts for these assets in accordance with ASC 310-10, Receivables . As of August 31, 2016 , accrual loans included $83.7 million of floating and fixed rate commercial property loans maturing between October 2017 and August 2018. The following tables represent nonaccrual loans in the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios accounted for under ASC 310-10 aggregated by collateral type: August 31, 2016 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 96,220 44,752 124 44,876 Single family homes 18,283 2,166 4,984 7,150 Commercial properties 11,448 1,372 508 1,880 Other 56,443 278 7,908 8,186 Loans receivable $ 182,394 48,568 13,524 62,092 November 30, 2015 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 145,417 59,740 1,165 60,905 Single family homes 39,659 8,344 3,459 11,803 Commercial properties 13,458 1,368 1,085 2,453 Other 78,279 — 13,533 13,533 Loans receivable $ 276,813 69,452 19,242 88,694 The average recorded investment in impaired loans was approximately $75 million and $112 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. In order to assess the risk associated with each risk category, management evaluates the forecasted cash flows and the value of the underlying collateral securing the loans receivable on a quarterly basis or when an event occurs that suggests a decline in the collateral’s fair value. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve established through provisions for loan losses charged against Rialto’s operating earnings. For nonaccrual loans, the risk relates to a decline in the value of the collateral securing the outstanding obligation. If the recorded investment in the nonaccrual loan exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized through an allowance for loan losses. The activity in the Company's allowance rollforward related to nonaccrual loans was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Allowance on nonaccrual loans, beginning of the period $ 29,186 40,593 35,625 58,326 Provision for loan losses 4,330 4,497 11,051 7,306 Charge-offs (6,924 ) (6,707 ) (20,084 ) (27,249 ) Allowance on nonaccrual loans, end of the period $ 26,592 38,383 26,592 38,383 For accrual loans an allowance is calculated based on a review of individual loans considered impaired. The analysis of impaired losses may be based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective loan rate, an observable market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral on collateral dependent loans. In determining the collectability of certain loans, management also considers the fair value of any underlying collateral. Based on Rialto's segment assessment, no allowance for loan losses were recorded for its accrual loans as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 . Real Estate Owned The acquisition of properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as REO held-and-used, net and REO held-for-sale. When a property is determined to be held-and-used, net, the asset is recorded at fair value and depreciated over its useful life using the straight line method. When certain criteria set forth in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment , are met, the property is classified as held-for-sale. When a real estate asset is classified as held-for-sale, the property is recorded at the lower of its cost basis or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of REO held-for-sale is determined in part by placing reliance on third-party appraisals of the properties and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity. The following tables represent the activity in REO : Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-for-sale, beginning of period $ 180,547 195,386 183,052 190,535 Improvements 575 1,023 2,170 4,318 Sales (18,889 ) (26,575 ) (52,840 ) (74,713 ) Impairments and unrealized losses (6,669 ) (3,127 ) (15,016 ) (7,499 ) Transfers from held-and-used, net (1) 14,960 19,031 53,158 73,097 REO - held-for-sale, end of period $ 170,524 185,738 170,524 185,738 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-and-used, net, beginning of period $ 125,406 213,748 153,717 255,795 Additions 1,013 1,367 12,316 15,710 Improvements 706 309 828 1,737 Impairments (23 ) (7 ) (826 ) (1,420 ) Depreciation (523 ) (520 ) (1,258 ) (1,895 ) Transfers to held-for-sale (1) (14,960 ) (19,031 ) (53,158 ) (73,097 ) Other — — — (964 ) REO - held-and-used, net, end of period $ 111,619 195,866 111,619 195,866 (1) During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Rialto segment transferred certain properties from REO held-and-used, net to REO held-for-sale as a result of changes in the disposition strategy of the real estate assets. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the Company recorded net gains (losses) of ($0.4) million and $1.6 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , the Company recorded net losses of $0.3 million and $0.1 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. These net gains (losses) are recorded in Rialto other income (expense), net. Rialto Mortgage Finance - loans held-for-sale During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $1.2 billion of which $1.2 billion were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $55.7 million were recorded as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $1.3 billion of loans into seven separate securitizations. During the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $2.0 billion and sold $1.6 billion of loans into eight separate securitizations. As of November 30, 2015 , $151.8 million of the originated loans were sold into a securitization trust but not settled and thus were included as receivables, net. Notes and Other Debts Payable The Rialto segment has $350 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% senior notes due 2018 ("7.00% Senior Notes"). Interest on the 7.00% Senior Notes is due semi-annually. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of the 7.00% Senior Notes was $348.5 million and $347.9 million , respectively. Under the indenture, Rialto is subject to certain covenants limiting, among other things, Rialto’s ability to incur indebtedness, to make investments, to make distributions to or enter into transactions with Lennar or to create liens, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. Rialto also has quarterly and annual reporting requirements, similar to an SEC registrant, to holders of the 7.00% Senior Notes. The Company believes Rialto was in compliance with its debt covenants at August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , Rialto warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (one year extension) (1) (2) $ 400,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures January 2017 (1) 250,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017 (1) (3) 100,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures August 2018 (two - one year extensions) (4) 100,000 Total $ 850,000 (1) RMF uses these facilities to finance its loan origination and securitization activities. (2) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to April 2017, with the option for an additional six month extension, and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $500 million . (3) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility was amended and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $200 million . (4) In 2015, Rialto entered into a separate repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans. Loans financed under this facility are held as accrual loans within loans receivable, net. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , borrowings under this facility were $36.3 million . Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's loan originations and securitization activities were $106.6 million and $317.1 million as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. The facilities require immediate repayment of the 75% interest in the secured commercial loans when the loans are sold in a securitization and the proceeds are collected. These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. In 2010, Rialto paid $310 million for the Bank Portfolios and for over 300 REO properties, of which $124 million was financed through a 5 -year senior unsecured note provided by one of the selling institutions for which the maturity was subsequently extended. The remaining balance is due in December 2016. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount related to the 5 -year senior unsecured note was $30.3 million . In May 2014, the Rialto segment issued $73.8 million principal amount of notes through a structured note offering (the “Structured Notes”) collateralized by certain assets originally acquired in the Bank Portfolios transaction at a price of 100% , with an annual coupon rate of 2.85% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses and hold backs for a cash reserve, were $69.1 million . In November 2014, the Rialto segment issued an additional $20.8 million of the Structured Notes at a price of 99.5% , with an annual coupon rate of 5.0% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $20.7 million . The estimated final payment date of the Structured Notes is November 15, 2017 . As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount, net of debt issuance costs, related to the Structured Notes was $27.9 million and $31.3 million , respectively. Investments All of Rialto's investments in funds have the attributes of an investment company in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies , as amended by ASU 2013-08, Financial Services - Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements, the attributes of which are different from the attributes that would cause a company to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the funds in which Rialto has investments in are recorded at fair value with increases/decreases in fair value recorded in their respective statements of operations and the Company’s share is recorded in Rialto equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities in the Company's statement of operations.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating and Reporting Segments | (2) Operating and Reporting Segments The Company’s operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments, based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, geography and product type. The Company’s reportable segments consist of: (1) Homebuilding East (2) Homebuilding Central (3) Homebuilding West (4) Homebuilding Houston (5) Lennar Financial Services (6) Rialto (7) Lennar Multifamily In the first quarter of 2016, the Company made the decision to divide the Southeast Florida operating division into two operating segments to maximize operational efficiencies given the continued growth of the division. As a result of this change in management structure, the Company re-evaluated its reportable segments and determined that neither operating segment met the reportable criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting . The Company aggregated these operating segments into the Homebuilding East reportable segment as these divisions exhibit similar economic characteristics, geography and product type as the other divisions in Homebuilding East. All prior year segment information has been restated to conform with the 2016 presentation. The change in the reportable segments has no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the periods presented. 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, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and other interest expense of 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, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas (1) West: California and Nevada Houston: Houston, Texas Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington (1) Texas in the Central reportable segment excludes Houston, Texas, which is its own reportable segment. Operations of the Lennar Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of the Company’s homes and others. The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period 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. Lennar Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Lennar Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations as well as in other states. Operations of the Rialto segment include raising, investing and managing third-party capital, originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans as well as investing its own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, properties and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment and operating platform to underwrite, diligence, acquire, manage, workout and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, properties and real estate related securities as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto’s operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from gains from securitization transactions and interest income from the Rialto Mortgage Finance (“RMF”) business, interest income associated with portfolios of real estate loans acquired and other portfolios of real estate loans and assets acquired, asset management, due diligence and underwriting fees derived from the real estate investment funds managed by the Rialto segment, fees for sub-advisory services, other income (expense), net and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the costs incurred by the segment for managing portfolios, costs related to RMF and other general and administrative expenses. Operations of the Lennar Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities and management fees generated from joint ventures and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the cost of sales of land, expenses related to construction activities and general and administrative expenses. Each reportable segment follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2015 . Operational results of each segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

(2) For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included a gain of $8.7 million on the sale of a clubhouse. (3) For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included the Company's share of costs associated with the FivePoint combination and the Company's share of net operating losses associated with the new FivePoint unconsolidated entity, partially offset by $17.4 million of management fee income related to a Lennar Homebuilding strategic joint venture for the three months ended August 31, 2016 and $30.1 million of management fee income and a profit participation related to Lennar Homebuilding's strategic joint ventures for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 . For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , operating earnings included $21.5 million and $64.5 million Lennar Financial Services Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Lennar Financial Services segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 110,164 106,777 Restricted cash 13,910 13,961 Receivables, net (1) 374,769 242,808 Loans held-for-sale (2) 800,139 843,252 Loans held-for-investment, net 29,704 30,998 Investments held-to-maturity 34,746 40,174 Investments available-for-sale (3) 51,535 42,827 Goodwill 39,838 38,854 Other (4) 72,751 66,186 $ 1,527,556 1,425,837 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 913,040 858,300 Other (5) 227,175 225,678 $ 1,140,215 1,083,978 (1) Receivables, net primarily related to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. (2) Loans held-for-sale related to unsold 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. (4) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other assets included mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $20.7 million and $13.1 million , respectively, and mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value of $18.4 million and $16.8 million , respectively. In addition, other assets also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $0.5 million as of November 30, 2015 . (5) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other liabilities included $58.4 million and $65.0 million , respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to construction defects, general liability and workers’ compensation. Other liabilities also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $2.0 million as of August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , the Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (1) $ 300,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (2) 450,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures June 2017 600,000 Total $ 1,350,000 (1) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to September 2017. (2) Maximum aggregate commitment includes an uncommitted amount of $250 million . The Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its 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. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $912.7 million and $858.3 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $960.4 million and $916.9 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting on receivables on loans sold but not yet paid. Without the facilities, the Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Substantially, all of the loans the Lennar 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. Over the last several years there has been an industry-wide effort by purchasers to defray their 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 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 Lennar 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 Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period $ 20,994 13,660 19,492 11,818 Provision for losses 1,288 1,147 3,186 3,174 Adjustments to pre-existing provisions for losses from changes in estimates 1,224 — 1,224 — Payments/settlements (17 ) — (413 ) (185 ) Loan origination liabilities, end of period $ 23,489 14,807 23,489 14,807 Rialto Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Rialto segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 133,103 150,219 Restricted cash (1) 6,499 15,061 Receivables, net (2) — 154,948 Loans held-for-sale (3) 228,931 316,275 Loans receivable, net 145,813 164,826 Real estate owned - held-for-sale 170,524 183,052 Real estate owned - held-and-used, net 111,619 153,717 Investments in unconsolidated entities 241,680 224,869 Investments held-to-maturity 60,928 25,625 Other 97,556 116,908 $ 1,196,653 1,505,500 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 576,448 771,728 Other 56,114 94,496 $ 632,562 866,224 (1) Restricted cash primarily consists of upfront deposits and application fees RMF receives before originating loans and is recognized as income once the loan has been originated as well as cash held in escrow by the Company’s loan servicer provider on behalf of customers and lenders and is disbursed in accordance with agreements between the transacting parties. (2) Receivables, net primarily relate to loans sold but not settled as of November 30, 2015 . (3) Loans held-for-sale relate to unsold loans originated by RMF carried at fair value. Rialto costs and expenses included loan impairments of $4.3 million and $11.1 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , respectively, and $4.5 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , respectively, primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loans portfolio (before noncontrolling interests). For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 Rialto operating loss included a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $6.0 million and $10.6 million , respectively. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Rialto operating earnings included a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $2.0 million and $4.5 million , respectively. The following is a detail of Rialto other income (expense), net: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Realized gains on REO sales, net $ 4,337 6,178 13,575 13,852 Unrealized losses on transfer of loans receivable to REO and impairments, net (6,617 ) (3,124 ) (12,166 ) (7,892 ) REO and other expenses (13,006 ) (14,714 ) (39,964 ) (43,123 ) Rental and other income (1) 7,674 12,832 10,667 37,191 Rialto other income (expense), net $ (7,612 ) 1,172 (27,888 ) 28 (1) Rental and other income for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , included a $16.0 million write-off of uncollectible receivables related to a hospital, which was acquired through the resolution of one of Rialto's loans from a 2010 portfolio. The hospital is managed by a third-party management company. Loans Receivable The following table represents loans receivable, net by type: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Nonaccrual loans: FDIC and Bank Portfolios $ 62,092 88,694 Accrual loans 83,721 76,132 Loans receivable, net $ 145,813 164,826 The nonaccrual loan portfolios consist primarily of loans acquired at a discount. In 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies ("LLCs") in partnership with the FDIC (“FDIC Portfolios”). The LLCs met the accounting definition of VIEs and since the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated the LLCs. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary because it has the power to direct the activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts. At August 31, 2016 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $251.5 million and $12.1 million , respectively. At November 30, 2015 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $355.2 million and $11.3 million , respectively. In addition in 2010, Rialto acquired 400 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“Bank Portfolios”) and over 300 REO properties from three financial institutions. Based on the nature of these loans, the portfolios are managed by assessing the risks related to the likelihood of collection of payments from borrowers and guarantors, as well as monitoring the value of the underlying collateral. As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , management classified all loans receivable within the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios as nonaccrual loans as forecasted principal and interest cannot be reasonably estimated, and therefore, accounts for these assets in accordance with ASC 310-10, Receivables . As of August 31, 2016 , accrual loans included $83.7 million of floating and fixed rate commercial property loans maturing between October 2017 and August 2018. The following tables represent nonaccrual loans in the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios accounted for under ASC 310-10 aggregated by collateral type: August 31, 2016 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 96,220 44,752 124 44,876 Single family homes 18,283 2,166 4,984 7,150 Commercial properties 11,448 1,372 508 1,880 Other 56,443 278 7,908 8,186 Loans receivable $ 182,394 48,568 13,524 62,092 November 30, 2015 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 145,417 59,740 1,165 60,905 Single family homes 39,659 8,344 3,459 11,803 Commercial properties 13,458 1,368 1,085 2,453 Other 78,279 — 13,533 13,533 Loans receivable $ 276,813 69,452 19,242 88,694 The average recorded investment in impaired loans was approximately $75 million and $112 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. In order to assess the risk associated with each risk category, management evaluates the forecasted cash flows and the value of the underlying collateral securing the loans receivable on a quarterly basis or when an event occurs that suggests a decline in the collateral’s fair value. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve established through provisions for loan losses charged against Rialto’s operating earnings. For nonaccrual loans, the risk relates to a decline in the value of the collateral securing the outstanding obligation. If the recorded investment in the nonaccrual loan exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized through an allowance for loan losses. The activity in the Company's allowance rollforward related to nonaccrual loans was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Allowance on nonaccrual loans, beginning of the period $ 29,186 40,593 35,625 58,326 Provision for loan losses 4,330 4,497 11,051 7,306 Charge-offs (6,924 ) (6,707 ) (20,084 ) (27,249 ) Allowance on nonaccrual loans, end of the period $ 26,592 38,383 26,592 38,383 For accrual loans an allowance is calculated based on a review of individual loans considered impaired. The analysis of impaired losses may be based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective loan rate, an observable market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral on collateral dependent loans. In determining the collectability of certain loans, management also considers the fair value of any underlying collateral. Based on Rialto's segment assessment, no allowance for loan losses were recorded for its accrual loans as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 . Real Estate Owned The acquisition of properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as REO held-and-used, net and REO held-for-sale. When a property is determined to be held-and-used, net, the asset is recorded at fair value and depreciated over its useful life using the straight line method. When certain criteria set forth in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment , are met, the property is classified as held-for-sale. When a real estate asset is classified as held-for-sale, the property is recorded at the lower of its cost basis or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of REO held-for-sale is determined in part by placing reliance on third-party appraisals of the properties and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity. The following tables represent the activity in REO : Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-for-sale, beginning of period $ 180,547 195,386 183,052 190,535 Improvements 575 1,023 2,170 4,318 Sales (18,889 ) (26,575 ) (52,840 ) (74,713 ) Impairments and unrealized losses (6,669 ) (3,127 ) (15,016 ) (7,499 ) Transfers from held-and-used, net (1) 14,960 19,031 53,158 73,097 REO - held-for-sale, end of period $ 170,524 185,738 170,524 185,738 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-and-used, net, beginning of period $ 125,406 213,748 153,717 255,795 Additions 1,013 1,367 12,316 15,710 Improvements 706 309 828 1,737 Impairments (23 ) (7 ) (826 ) (1,420 ) Depreciation (523 ) (520 ) (1,258 ) (1,895 ) Transfers to held-for-sale (1) (14,960 ) (19,031 ) (53,158 ) (73,097 ) Other — — — (964 ) REO - held-and-used, net, end of period $ 111,619 195,866 111,619 195,866 (1) During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Rialto segment transferred certain properties from REO held-and-used, net to REO held-for-sale as a result of changes in the disposition strategy of the real estate assets. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the Company recorded net gains (losses) of ($0.4) million and $1.6 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , the Company recorded net losses of $0.3 million and $0.1 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. These net gains (losses) are recorded in Rialto other income (expense), net. Rialto Mortgage Finance - loans held-for-sale During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $1.2 billion of which $1.2 billion were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $55.7 million were recorded as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $1.3 billion of loans into seven separate securitizations. During the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $2.0 billion and sold $1.6 billion of loans into eight separate securitizations. As of November 30, 2015 , $151.8 million of the originated loans were sold into a securitization trust but not settled and thus were included as receivables, net. Notes and Other Debts Payable The Rialto segment has $350 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% senior notes due 2018 ("7.00% Senior Notes"). Interest on the 7.00% Senior Notes is due semi-annually. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of the 7.00% Senior Notes was $348.5 million and $347.9 million , respectively. Under the indenture, Rialto is subject to certain covenants limiting, among other things, Rialto’s ability to incur indebtedness, to make investments, to make distributions to or enter into transactions with Lennar or to create liens, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. Rialto also has quarterly and annual reporting requirements, similar to an SEC registrant, to holders of the 7.00% Senior Notes. The Company believes Rialto was in compliance with its debt covenants at August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , Rialto warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (one year extension) (1) (2) $ 400,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures January 2017 (1) 250,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017 (1) (3) 100,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures August 2018 (two - one year extensions) (4) 100,000 Total $ 850,000 (1) RMF uses these facilities to finance its loan origination and securitization activities. (2) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to April 2017, with the option for an additional six month extension, and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $500 million . (3) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility was amended and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $200 million . (4) In 2015, Rialto entered into a separate repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans. Loans financed under this facility are held as accrual loans within loans receivable, net. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , borrowings under this facility were $36.3 million . Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's loan originations and securitization activities were $106.6 million and $317.1 million as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. The facilities require immediate repayment of the 75% interest in the secured commercial loans when the loans are sold in a securitization and the proceeds are collected. These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. In 2010, Rialto paid $310 million for the Bank Portfolios and for over 300 REO properties, of which $124 million was financed through a 5 -year senior unsecured note provided by one of the selling institutions for which the maturity was subsequently extended. The remaining balance is due in December 2016. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount related to the 5 -year senior unsecured note was $30.3 million . In May 2014, the Rialto segment issued $73.8 million principal amount of notes through a structured note offering (the “Structured Notes”) collateralized by certain assets originally acquired in the Bank Portfolios transaction at a price of 100% , with an annual coupon rate of 2.85% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses and hold backs for a cash reserve, were $69.1 million . In November 2014, the Rialto segment issued an additional $20.8 million of the Structured Notes at a price of 99.5% , with an annual coupon rate of 5.0% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $20.7 million . The estimated final payment date of the Structured Notes is November 15, 2017 . As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount, net of debt issuance costs, related to the Structured Notes was $27.9 million and $31.3 million , respectively. Investments All of Rialto's investments in funds have the attributes of an investment company in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies , as amended by ASU 2013-08, Financial Services - Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements, the attributes of which are different from the attributes that would cause a company to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the funds in which Rialto has investments in are recorded at fair value with increases/decreases in fair value recorded in their respective statements of operations and the Company’s share is recorded in Rialto equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities in the Company's statement of operations.

During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Rialto received $5.0 million and $16.2 million of such advanced distributions. These advance distributions are not subject to clawbacks and are included in Rialto's revenues. During 2015, Rialto adopted a Carried Interest Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), under which participating employees in the aggregate may receive up to 40% of the equity units of a limited liability company (a "Carried Interest Entity") that is entitled to distributions made by a fund or other investment vehicle (a "Fund") m |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating and Reporting Segments | (2) Operating and Reporting Segments The Company’s operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments, based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, geography and product type. The Company’s reportable segments consist of: (1) Homebuilding East (2) Homebuilding Central (3) Homebuilding West (4) Homebuilding Houston (5) Lennar Financial Services (6) Rialto (7) Lennar Multifamily In the first quarter of 2016, the Company made the decision to divide the Southeast Florida operating division into two operating segments to maximize operational efficiencies given the continued growth of the division. As a result of this change in management structure, the Company re-evaluated its reportable segments and determined that neither operating segment met the reportable criteria set forth in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting . The Company aggregated these operating segments into the Homebuilding East reportable segment as these divisions exhibit similar economic characteristics, geography and product type as the other divisions in Homebuilding East. All prior year segment information has been restated to conform with the 2016 presentation. The change in the reportable segments has no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the periods presented. 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, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and other interest expense of 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, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia Central: Arizona, Colorado and Texas (1) West: California and Nevada Houston: Houston, Texas Other: Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington (1) Texas in the Central reportable segment excludes Houston, Texas, which is its own reportable segment. Operations of the Lennar Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of the Company’s homes and others. The Lennar Financial Services segment sells substantially all of the loans it originates within a short period 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. Lennar Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Lennar Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations as well as in other states. Operations of the Rialto segment include raising, investing and managing third-party capital, originating and securitizing commercial mortgage loans as well as investing its own capital in real estate related mortgage loans, properties and related securities. Rialto utilizes its vertically-integrated investment and operating platform to underwrite, diligence, acquire, manage, workout and add value to diverse portfolios of real estate loans, properties and real estate related securities as well as providing strategic real estate capital. Rialto’s operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from gains from securitization transactions and interest income from the Rialto Mortgage Finance (“RMF”) business, interest income associated with portfolios of real estate loans acquired and other portfolios of real estate loans and assets acquired, asset management, due diligence and underwriting fees derived from the real estate investment funds managed by the Rialto segment, fees for sub-advisory services, other income (expense), net and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the costs incurred by the segment for managing portfolios, costs related to RMF and other general and administrative expenses. Operations of the Lennar Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities and management fees generated from joint ventures and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities, less the cost of sales of land, expenses related to construction activities and general and administrative expenses. Each reportable segment follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2015 . Operational results of each segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

(2) For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included a gain of $8.7 million on the sale of a clubhouse. (3) For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , operating earnings included the Company's share of costs associated with the FivePoint combination and the Company's share of net operating losses associated with the new FivePoint unconsolidated entity, partially offset by $17.4 million of management fee income related to a Lennar Homebuilding strategic joint venture for the three months ended August 31, 2016 and $30.1 million of management fee income and a profit participation related to Lennar Homebuilding's strategic joint ventures for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 . For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , operating earnings included $21.5 million and $64.5 million Lennar Financial Services Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Lennar Financial Services segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 110,164 106,777 Restricted cash 13,910 13,961 Receivables, net (1) 374,769 242,808 Loans held-for-sale (2) 800,139 843,252 Loans held-for-investment, net 29,704 30,998 Investments held-to-maturity 34,746 40,174 Investments available-for-sale (3) 51,535 42,827 Goodwill 39,838 38,854 Other (4) 72,751 66,186 $ 1,527,556 1,425,837 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 913,040 858,300 Other (5) 227,175 225,678 $ 1,140,215 1,083,978 (1) Receivables, net primarily related to loans sold to investors for which the Company had not yet been paid as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. (2) Loans held-for-sale related to unsold 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. (4) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other assets included mortgage loan commitments carried at fair value of $20.7 million and $13.1 million , respectively, and mortgage servicing rights carried at fair value of $18.4 million and $16.8 million , respectively. In addition, other assets also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $0.5 million as of November 30, 2015 . (5) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , other liabilities included $58.4 million and $65.0 million , respectively, of certain of the Company’s self-insurance reserves related to construction defects, general liability and workers’ compensation. Other liabilities also included forward contracts carried at fair value of $2.0 million as of August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , the Lennar Financial Services segment warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (1) $ 300,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (2) 450,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures June 2017 600,000 Total $ 1,350,000 (1) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to September 2017. (2) Maximum aggregate commitment includes an uncommitted amount of $250 million . The Lennar Financial Services segment uses these facilities to finance its 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. Borrowings under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were $912.7 million and $858.3 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were collateralized by mortgage loans and receivables on loans sold to investors but not yet paid for with outstanding principal balances of $960.4 million and $916.9 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be paid off by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting on receivables on loans sold but not yet paid. Without the facilities, the Lennar Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Substantially, all of the loans the Lennar 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. Over the last several years there has been an industry-wide effort by purchasers to defray their 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 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 Lennar 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 Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period $ 20,994 13,660 19,492 11,818 Provision for losses 1,288 1,147 3,186 3,174 Adjustments to pre-existing provisions for losses from changes in estimates 1,224 — 1,224 — Payments/settlements (17 ) — (413 ) (185 ) Loan origination liabilities, end of period $ 23,489 14,807 23,489 14,807 Rialto Segment The assets and liabilities related to the Rialto segment were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 133,103 150,219 Restricted cash (1) 6,499 15,061 Receivables, net (2) — 154,948 Loans held-for-sale (3) 228,931 316,275 Loans receivable, net 145,813 164,826 Real estate owned - held-for-sale 170,524 183,052 Real estate owned - held-and-used, net 111,619 153,717 Investments in unconsolidated entities 241,680 224,869 Investments held-to-maturity 60,928 25,625 Other 97,556 116,908 $ 1,196,653 1,505,500 Liabilities: Notes and other debts payable $ 576,448 771,728 Other 56,114 94,496 $ 632,562 866,224 (1) Restricted cash primarily consists of upfront deposits and application fees RMF receives before originating loans and is recognized as income once the loan has been originated as well as cash held in escrow by the Company’s loan servicer provider on behalf of customers and lenders and is disbursed in accordance with agreements between the transacting parties. (2) Receivables, net primarily relate to loans sold but not settled as of November 30, 2015 . (3) Loans held-for-sale relate to unsold loans originated by RMF carried at fair value. Rialto costs and expenses included loan impairments of $4.3 million and $11.1 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , respectively, and $4.5 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , respectively, primarily associated with the segment's FDIC loans portfolio (before noncontrolling interests). For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 Rialto operating loss included a net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of $6.0 million and $10.6 million , respectively. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , Rialto operating earnings included a net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests of $2.0 million and $4.5 million , respectively. The following is a detail of Rialto other income (expense), net: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Realized gains on REO sales, net $ 4,337 6,178 13,575 13,852 Unrealized losses on transfer of loans receivable to REO and impairments, net (6,617 ) (3,124 ) (12,166 ) (7,892 ) REO and other expenses (13,006 ) (14,714 ) (39,964 ) (43,123 ) Rental and other income (1) 7,674 12,832 10,667 37,191 Rialto other income (expense), net $ (7,612 ) 1,172 (27,888 ) 28 (1) Rental and other income for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , included a $16.0 million write-off of uncollectible receivables related to a hospital, which was acquired through the resolution of one of Rialto's loans from a 2010 portfolio. The hospital is managed by a third-party management company. Loans Receivable The following table represents loans receivable, net by type: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Nonaccrual loans: FDIC and Bank Portfolios $ 62,092 88,694 Accrual loans 83,721 76,132 Loans receivable, net $ 145,813 164,826 The nonaccrual loan portfolios consist primarily of loans acquired at a discount. In 2010, the Rialto segment acquired indirectly 40% managing member equity interests in two limited liability companies ("LLCs") in partnership with the FDIC (“FDIC Portfolios”). The LLCs met the accounting definition of VIEs and since the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidated the LLCs. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary because it has the power to direct the activities of the LLCs that most significantly impact the LLCs' performance through Rialto's management and servicer contracts. At August 31, 2016 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $251.5 million and $12.1 million , respectively. At November 30, 2015 , these consolidated LLCs had total combined assets and liabilities of $355.2 million and $11.3 million , respectively. In addition in 2010, Rialto acquired 400 distressed residential and commercial real estate loans (“Bank Portfolios”) and over 300 REO properties from three financial institutions. Based on the nature of these loans, the portfolios are managed by assessing the risks related to the likelihood of collection of payments from borrowers and guarantors, as well as monitoring the value of the underlying collateral. As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , management classified all loans receivable within the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios as nonaccrual loans as forecasted principal and interest cannot be reasonably estimated, and therefore, accounts for these assets in accordance with ASC 310-10, Receivables . As of August 31, 2016 , accrual loans included $83.7 million of floating and fixed rate commercial property loans maturing between October 2017 and August 2018. The following tables represent nonaccrual loans in the FDIC Portfolios and Bank Portfolios accounted for under ASC 310-10 aggregated by collateral type: August 31, 2016 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 96,220 44,752 124 44,876 Single family homes 18,283 2,166 4,984 7,150 Commercial properties 11,448 1,372 508 1,880 Other 56,443 278 7,908 8,186 Loans receivable $ 182,394 48,568 13,524 62,092 November 30, 2015 Recorded Investment (In thousands) Unpaid Principal Balance With Allowance Without Allowance Total Recorded Investment Land $ 145,417 59,740 1,165 60,905 Single family homes 39,659 8,344 3,459 11,803 Commercial properties 13,458 1,368 1,085 2,453 Other 78,279 — 13,533 13,533 Loans receivable $ 276,813 69,452 19,242 88,694 The average recorded investment in impaired loans was approximately $75 million and $112 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. In order to assess the risk associated with each risk category, management evaluates the forecasted cash flows and the value of the underlying collateral securing the loans receivable on a quarterly basis or when an event occurs that suggests a decline in the collateral’s fair value. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve established through provisions for loan losses charged against Rialto’s operating earnings. For nonaccrual loans, the risk relates to a decline in the value of the collateral securing the outstanding obligation. If the recorded investment in the nonaccrual loan exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized through an allowance for loan losses. The activity in the Company's allowance rollforward related to nonaccrual loans was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Allowance on nonaccrual loans, beginning of the period $ 29,186 40,593 35,625 58,326 Provision for loan losses 4,330 4,497 11,051 7,306 Charge-offs (6,924 ) (6,707 ) (20,084 ) (27,249 ) Allowance on nonaccrual loans, end of the period $ 26,592 38,383 26,592 38,383 For accrual loans an allowance is calculated based on a review of individual loans considered impaired. The analysis of impaired losses may be based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective loan rate, an observable market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral on collateral dependent loans. In determining the collectability of certain loans, management also considers the fair value of any underlying collateral. Based on Rialto's segment assessment, no allowance for loan losses were recorded for its accrual loans as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 . Real Estate Owned The acquisition of properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as REO held-and-used, net and REO held-for-sale. When a property is determined to be held-and-used, net, the asset is recorded at fair value and depreciated over its useful life using the straight line method. When certain criteria set forth in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment , are met, the property is classified as held-for-sale. When a real estate asset is classified as held-for-sale, the property is recorded at the lower of its cost basis or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The fair value of REO held-for-sale is determined in part by placing reliance on third-party appraisals of the properties and/or internally prepared analyses of recent offers or prices on comparable properties in the proximate vicinity. The following tables represent the activity in REO : Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-for-sale, beginning of period $ 180,547 195,386 183,052 190,535 Improvements 575 1,023 2,170 4,318 Sales (18,889 ) (26,575 ) (52,840 ) (74,713 ) Impairments and unrealized losses (6,669 ) (3,127 ) (15,016 ) (7,499 ) Transfers from held-and-used, net (1) 14,960 19,031 53,158 73,097 REO - held-for-sale, end of period $ 170,524 185,738 170,524 185,738 Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 REO - held-and-used, net, beginning of period $ 125,406 213,748 153,717 255,795 Additions 1,013 1,367 12,316 15,710 Improvements 706 309 828 1,737 Impairments (23 ) (7 ) (826 ) (1,420 ) Depreciation (523 ) (520 ) (1,258 ) (1,895 ) Transfers to held-for-sale (1) (14,960 ) (19,031 ) (53,158 ) (73,097 ) Other — — — (964 ) REO - held-and-used, net, end of period $ 111,619 195,866 111,619 195,866 (1) During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Rialto segment transferred certain properties from REO held-and-used, net to REO held-for-sale as a result of changes in the disposition strategy of the real estate assets. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the Company recorded net gains (losses) of ($0.4) million and $1.6 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , the Company recorded net losses of $0.3 million and $0.1 million , respectively, from acquisitions of REO through foreclosure. These net gains (losses) are recorded in Rialto other income (expense), net. Rialto Mortgage Finance - loans held-for-sale During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $1.2 billion of which $1.2 billion were recorded as loans held-for-sale and $55.7 million were recorded as accrual loans within loans receivable, net, and sold $1.3 billion of loans into seven separate securitizations. During the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , RMF originated loans with a total principal balance of $2.0 billion and sold $1.6 billion of loans into eight separate securitizations. As of November 30, 2015 , $151.8 million of the originated loans were sold into a securitization trust but not settled and thus were included as receivables, net. Notes and Other Debts Payable The Rialto segment has $350 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% senior notes due 2018 ("7.00% Senior Notes"). Interest on the 7.00% Senior Notes is due semi-annually. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the carrying amount, net of debt issuance costs, of the 7.00% Senior Notes was $348.5 million and $347.9 million , respectively. Under the indenture, Rialto is subject to certain covenants limiting, among other things, Rialto’s ability to incur indebtedness, to make investments, to make distributions to or enter into transactions with Lennar or to create liens, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. Rialto also has quarterly and annual reporting requirements, similar to an SEC registrant, to holders of the 7.00% Senior Notes. The Company believes Rialto was in compliance with its debt covenants at August 31, 2016 . At August 31, 2016 , Rialto warehouse facilities were as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures October 2016 (one year extension) (1) (2) $ 400,000 364-day warehouse repurchase facility that matures January 2017 (1) 250,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures December 2017 (1) (3) 100,000 Warehouse repurchase facility that matures August 2018 (two - one year extensions) (4) 100,000 Total $ 850,000 (1) RMF uses these facilities to finance its loan origination and securitization activities. (2) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility maturity date was extended to April 2017, with the option for an additional six month extension, and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $500 million . (3) Subsequent to August 31, 2016 , the warehouse repurchase facility was amended and the maximum aggregate commitment was increased to $200 million . (4) In 2015, Rialto entered into a separate repurchase facility to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans. Loans financed under this facility are held as accrual loans within loans receivable, net. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , borrowings under this facility were $36.3 million . Borrowings under the facilities that finance RMF's loan originations and securitization activities were $106.6 million and $317.1 million as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively, and were secured by a 75% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. The facilities require immediate repayment of the 75% interest in the secured commercial loans when the loans are sold in a securitization and the proceeds are collected. These warehouse repurchase facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. In 2010, Rialto paid $310 million for the Bank Portfolios and for over 300 REO properties, of which $124 million was financed through a 5 -year senior unsecured note provided by one of the selling institutions for which the maturity was subsequently extended. The remaining balance is due in December 2016. As of both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount related to the 5 -year senior unsecured note was $30.3 million . In May 2014, the Rialto segment issued $73.8 million principal amount of notes through a structured note offering (the “Structured Notes”) collateralized by certain assets originally acquired in the Bank Portfolios transaction at a price of 100% , with an annual coupon rate of 2.85% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses and hold backs for a cash reserve, were $69.1 million . In November 2014, the Rialto segment issued an additional $20.8 million of the Structured Notes at a price of 99.5% , with an annual coupon rate of 5.0% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $20.7 million . The estimated final payment date of the Structured Notes is November 15, 2017 . As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the outstanding amount, net of debt issuance costs, related to the Structured Notes was $27.9 million and $31.3 million , respectively. Investments All of Rialto's investments in funds have the attributes of an investment company in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies , as amended by ASU 2013-08, Financial Services - Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements, the attributes of which are different from the attributes that would cause a company to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, the assets and liabilities of the funds in which Rialto has investments in are recorded at fair value with increases/decreases in fair value recorded in their respective statements of operations and the Company’s share is recorded in Rialto equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities in the Company's statement of operations.

In June 2016, the Company amended the credit agreement governing its unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") to increase the maximum borrowings from $1.6 billion to $1.8 billion , including a $318 million accordion feature, subject to additional commitments, with certain financial institutions. The maturity for $1.3 billion of the Credit Facility was extended from June 2019 to June 2020, with the remaining $160 million maturing in June 2018. The proceeds available under the Credit Facility, which are subject to specified conditions for borrowing, may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The credit agreement also provides that up to $500 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. Under the Credit Facility 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 August 31, 2016 . In addition, the Company had $320 million letter of credit facilities with different financial institutions. The Company’s performance letters of credit outstanding were $261.8 million and $236.5 million , respectively, at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 . The Company’s financial letters of credit outstanding were $214.0 million and $216.7 million , at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. 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 August 31, 2016 , the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $1.4 billion including performance surety bonds related to site improvements at various projects (including certain projects in the Company’s joint ventures) and financial surety bonds including $223.4 million related to pending litigation. 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. As of August 31, 2016 , there were approximately $497.8 million , or 36% , of anticipated future costs to complete related to these site improvements. 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. In March 2016, the Company issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.750% senior notes due 2021 (the “ 4.750% Senior Notes”) at a price of 100% . Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, were $496.0 million . The Company used the net proceeds from the sales of the 4.750% Senior Notes to retire its 6.50% senior notes due April 2016 for 100% of the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Interest on the 4.750% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning October 1, 2016. The 4.750% Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries. The 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2021 (the “ 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes”) are convertible into shares of Class A common stock at any time prior to maturity or redemption at the initial conversion rate of 42.5555 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes or 6,680,405 remaining shares of Class A common stock if all the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes outstanding principal amount is converted, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $23.50 per share of Class A common stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 , 8.3 million shares and 13.8 million shares, respectively, are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , 17.0 million shares were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , holders converted approximately $243 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes for 10.3 million shares of Class A common stock, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date of the conversions and small cash premiums. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes was $157.0 million and $400.0 million , respectively. The 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries. During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , all of the $234 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2.75% convertible senior notes due 2020 (the “ 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes”) were converted and exchanged by the holders for approximately $234 million in cash and 5.2 million shares of Class A common stock, plus accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the exchanges. The 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes were convertible into cash, shares of Class A common stock or a combination of both, at the Company’s election. However, the Company settled the face value of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes in cash. Holders converted the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes at the initial conversion rate of 45.1794 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $22.13 per share of Class A common stock. For the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the calculation for diluted earnings per share included 0.6 million shares related to the dilutive effect of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes prior to the conversions. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2015 , the calculation for diluted earnings per share included 7.1 million shares and 9.5 million shares, respectively, related to the dilutive effect of the 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes. Although the guarantees by substantially all of the Company's 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries and some of the Company's other subsidiaries 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 |

Product Warranty | Product Warranty Warranty and similar reserves for homes are established at an amount estimated to be adequate to cover potential costs for materials and labor with regard to warranty-type claims expected to be incurred subsequent to the delivery of a home. Reserves are determined based on historical data and trends with respect to similar product types and geographical areas. The Company regularly monitors the warranty reserve and makes adjustments to its pre-existing warranties in order to reflect changes in trends and historical data as information becomes available. Warranty reserves are included in Lennar Homebuilding other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The activity in the Company’s warranty reserve was as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Warranty reserve, beginning of period $ 127,159 119,610 130,853 115,927 Warranties issued 25,382 21,873 67,952 55,665 Adjustments to pre-existing warranties from changes in estimates (1) 4,982 (111 ) 4,247 5,273 Payments (23,984 ) (21,676 ) (69,513 ) (57,169 ) Warranty reserve, end of period $ 133,539 119,696 133,539 119,696 (1) The adjustments to pre-existing warranties from changes in estimates during both the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
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 August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , 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. August 31, 2016 November 30, 2015 Fair Value Carrying Fair Carrying Fair (In thousands) Hierarchy Amount Value Amount Value ASSETS Rialto: Loans receivable, net Level 3 $ 145,813 148,756 164,826 169,302 Investments held-to-maturity Level 3 $ 60,928 60,226 25,625 25,227 Lennar Financial Services: Loans held-for-investment, net Level 3 $ 29,704 28,603 30,998 29,931 Investments held-to-maturity Level 2 $ 34,746 34,868 40,174 40,098 LIABILITIES Lennar Homebuilding senior notes and other debts payable Level 2 $ 4,920,848 5,323,307 5,025,130 5,936,327 Rialto notes and other debts payable Level 2 $ 576,448 596,020 771,728 803,013 Lennar Financial Services notes and other debts payable Level 2 $ 913,040 913,040 858,300 858,300 The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company in estimating fair values: Rialto —The fair values for loans receivable, net are based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated cost to sell or discounted cash flows, if estimable. The fair value for investments held-to-maturity is based on discounted cash flows. For notes and other debts payable, the fair value is calculated based on discounted cash flows using the Company’s weighted average borrowing rate and for the warehouse repurchase financing agreements fair values approximate their carrying value due to their short-term maturities. Lennar Financial Services —The fair values above are based on quoted market prices, if available. 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 short-term nature of the borrowings. Lennar 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. 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 Rialto Financial Assets: Loans held-for-sale (1) Level 3 $ 228,931 316,275 Credit default swaps (2) Level 2 $ 4,448 6,153 Rialto Financial Liabilities: Interest rate swaps and swap futures (3) Level 1 $ 238 978 Lennar Financial Services Assets (Liabilities): Loans held-for-sale (4) Level 2 $ 800,139 843,252 Investments available-for-sale Level 1 $ 51,535 42,827 Mortgage loan commitments Level 2 $ 20,663 13,060 Forward contracts Level 2 $ (2,011 ) 531 Mortgage servicing rights Level 3 $ 18,369 16,770 (1) The aggregate fair value of Rialto loans held-for-sale of $228.9 million at August 31, 2016 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $228.8 million by $0.1 million . The aggregate fair value of loans held-for-sale of $316.3 million at November 30, 2015 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $314.3 million by $2.0 million . (2) Rialto credit default swaps are included within Rialto's other assets. (3) Rialto interest rate swaps and swap futures are included within Rialto's other liabilities. (4) The aggregate fair value of Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale of $800.1 million at August 31, 2016 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $771.1 million by $29.1 million . The aggregate fair value of loans held-for-sale of $843.3 million at November 30, 2015 exceeds their aggregate principal balance of $815.0 million by $28.2 million . The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments have been determined by 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 following methods and assumptions are used by the Company in estimating fair values: Rialto 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. Rialto credit default swaps - The fair value of credit default swaps (derivatives) is based on quoted market prices for similar investments traded in active markets. Rialto interest rate swaps and swap futures - The fair value of interest rate swaps (derivatives) is based on observable values for underlying interest rates and market determined risk premiums. The fair value of interest rate swap futures (derivatives) is based on quoted market prices for identical investments traded in active markets. Lennar Financial Services 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 Lennar Financial Services’ loans held-for-sale as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 . Fair value of servicing rights is determined based on actual sales of servicing rights on loans with similar characteristics. Lennar Financial Services investments available-for-sale - The fair value of these investments is based on the quoted market prices for similar financial instruments. Lennar Financial Services mortgage loan commitments - Fair value of commitments to originate loans is based upon the difference between the current value of similar loans and the price at which the Lennar Financial Services segment has committed to originate the loans. The fair value of commitments to sell loan contracts is the estimated amount that the Lennar Financial Services segment would receive or pay to terminate the commitments at the reporting date based on market prices for similar financial instruments. 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 servicing rights is determined based on actual sales of servicing rights on loans with similar characteristics. The fair value of the mortgage loan commitments and related servicing rights is included in Lennar Financial Services’ other assets. Lennar Financial Services forward contracts - Fair value is based on quoted market prices for similar financial instruments. The fair value of forward contracts is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other liabilities as of August 31, 2016 . The fair value of forward contracts is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other assets as of November 30, 2015 . The Lennar Financial Services segment uses mandatory mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) forward commitments, option contracts and investor commitments to hedge its mortgage-related interest rate exposure. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk. Credit risk associated with MBS forward commitments, option contracts and loan sales transactions is managed by limiting the Company’s counterparties to investment banks, federally regulated bank affiliates and other investors meeting the Company’s credit standards. The segment’s risk, in the event of default by the purchaser, is the difference between the contract price and fair value of the MBS forward commitments and option contracts. At August 31, 2016 , the segment had open commitments amounting to $1.3 billion to sell MBS with varying settlement dates through November 2016. Lennar Financial Services mortgage servicing rights - Lennar 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. As of August 31, 2016 , the key assumptions used in determining the fair value include a 16.6% mortgage prepayment rate, a 12.3% discount rate and a 7.6% delinquency rate. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is included in the Lennar Financial Services segment's other assets. 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 Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Changes in fair value included in Lennar Financial Services revenues: Loans held-for-sale $ (2,808 ) 2,836 826 (283 ) Mortgage loan commitments $ 1,781 (384 ) 7,603 5,811 Forward contracts $ (362 ) (3,493 ) (2,542 ) 4,238 Investments available-for-sale $ 31 — 37 23 Changes in fair value included in Rialto revenues: Financial Assets: Credit default swaps $ (1,570 ) 3,466 (1,547 ) 2,641 Financial Liabilities: Interest rate swaps and swap futures $ (133 ) (4,740 ) 740 (4,308 ) Changes in fair value included in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax: Lennar Financial Services investments available-for-sale $ 639 (400 ) 1,121 (294 ) Interest on Lennar Financial Services loans held-for-sale and Rialto loans held-for-sale measured at fair value is calculated based on the interest rate of the loan and recorded as revenues in the Lennar Financial Services’ statement of operations and Rialto's statement of operations, respectively.

In addition, management periodically performs valuations of its REO held-for-sale. The losses upon the transfer or acquisition of REO and impairments were included in Rialto other income (expense), net, in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 . (4) REO held-and-used, net, assets are initially recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure. The fair value of REO held-and-used, net, is based upon the appraised value at the time of foreclosure or management’s best estimate. In addition, management periodically performs valuations of its REO held-and-used, net. The gains (losses) upon acquisition of REO held-and-used, net and impairments were included in Rialto other income (expense), net, in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2016 and 2015 . 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 impairments in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in its Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2015. 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. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its active communities for indicators of potential impairments. As of August 31, 2016 and 2015 , there were 691 and 670 active communities, excluding unconsolidated entities, respectively. As of August 31, 2016 , the Company identified 16 communities with 444 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $134.7 million as having potential indicators of impairment. For the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the Company recorded no impairments. As of August 31, 2015 , the Company identified 15 communities with 453 homesites and a corresponding carrying value of $74.0 million as having potential indicators of impairment. For the nine months ended August 31, 2015 , the Company recorded a valuation adjustment of $15.4 million on 138 homesites in two communities with a carrying value of $68.6 million . The table below summarizes the most significant unobservable inputs used in the Company's discounted cash flow model to determine the fair value of its communities for which the Company recorded valuation adjustments during the nine months ended August 31, 2015 : Nine Months Ended August 31, 2015 Unobservable inputs Range Average selling price $486,000 - $1,300,000 Absorption rate per quarter (homes) 9 - 14 Discount rate 12% - 20% |

Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities The Company evaluated the agreements of its joint ventures that were formed or that had reconsideration events during the nine months ended August 31, 2016 . Based on the Company's evaluation, during the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , the Company consolidated entities that had total combined assets of $122.1 million and liabilities of $96.4 million . During the nine months ended August 31, 2016 , there were no VIEs that were deconsolidated. The Company’s recorded investments in unconsolidated entities were as follows: (In thousands) August 31, November 30, Lennar Homebuilding $ 796,499 741,551 Rialto $ 241,680 224,869 Lennar Multifamily $ 304,032 250,876 Consolidated VIEs As of August 31, 2016 , the carrying amounts of the VIEs’ assets and non-recourse liabilities that consolidated were $596.6 million and $136.8 million , respectively. As of November 30, 2015 , the carrying amounts of the VIEs’ assets and non-recourse liabilities that consolidated were $652.3 million and $84.4 million , respectively. Those assets are owned by, and those liabilities are obligations of, the VIEs, not the Company. 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 and 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 The Company’s recorded investment in unconsolidated VIEs and its estimated maximum exposure to loss were as follows: As of August 31, 2016 (In thousands) Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss Lennar Homebuilding (1) $ 100,452 140,228 Rialto (2) 60,928 60,928 Lennar Multifamily (3) 224,574 574,114 $ 385,954 775,270 As of November 30, 2015 (In thousands) Investments in Unconsolidated VIEs Lennar’s Maximum Exposure to Loss Lennar Homebuilding (1) $ 102,706 111,215 Rialto (2) 25,625 25,625 Lennar Multifamily (3) 177,359 586,842 $ 305,690 723,682 (1) At August 31, 2016 , the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Homebuilding’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to a $39.6 million repayment guarantee of an unconsolidated entity's debt. At November 30, 2015 , the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Homebuilding’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $8.3 million remaining commitment to fund an unconsolidated entity for further expenses up until the unconsolidated entity obtained permanent financing. (2) At both August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the maximum recourse exposure to loss of Rialto’s investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , investments in unconsolidated VIEs and Lennar’s maximum exposure to loss included $60.9 million and $25.6 million , respectively, related to Rialto’s investments held-to-maturity. (3) As of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the remaining equity commitment of $321.2 million and $378.3 million , respectively, to fund the Venture for future expenditures related to the construction and development of its projects is included in Lennar's maximum exposure to loss. In addition, at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , the maximum exposure to loss of Lennar Multifamily's investments in unconsolidated VIEs was limited to its investments in the unconsolidated VIEs, except with regard to $27.3 million and $30.0 million , respectively, of letters of credit outstanding for certain of the unconsolidated VIEs that could be drawn upon in the event of default under their debt agreements. 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. As of August 31, 2016 , the Company and other partners do not generally have an obligation to make capital contributions to the VIEs, except for $321.2 million remaining equity commitment to fund the Venture for further expenditures related to the construction and development of its projects and $27.3 million of letters of credit outstanding for certain Lennar Multifamily unconsolidated VIEs that could be drawn upon in the event of default under their debt agreements. In addition, 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 with regard to a $39.6 million repayment guarantee of an unconsolidated entity's debt. 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 enables 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 option. 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 nine months ended August 31, 2016 , consolidated inventory not owned increased by $68.2 million with a corresponding increase to liabilities related to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2016 . The increase was primarily related to the consolidation of an option agreement, partially offset by the Company exercising its option 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 land under development to consolidated inventory not owned in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2016 . 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 loss related to its option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated entities consisted of its non-refundable option deposits and pre-acquisition costs totaling $85.7 million and $89.2 million at August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 , respectively. Additionally, the Company had posted $53.1 million and $70.4 million of letters of credit in lieu of cash deposits under certain land and option contracts as of August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015 |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities | Commitments and Contingent Liabilities The Company is 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 condensed 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 has been engaged in litigation since 2008 in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland regarding whether the Company is required by a contract it entered into in 2005 to purchase a property in Maryland. After entering into the contract, the Company later renegotiated the purchase price, reducing it from $200 million to $134 million , $20 million of which has been paid and subsequently written off, leaving a balance of $114 million . In January 2015, the District Court rendered a decision ordering the Company to purchase the property for the $114 million balance of the contract price, to pay interest at the rate of 12% per annum from May 27, 2008, and to reimburse the seller for real estate taxes and attorneys’ fees. The Company believes the decision is contrary to applicable law and has appealed the decision. The Company does not believe it is probable that a loss has occurred and, therefore, no liability has been recorded with respect to this case. If the District Court decision is affirmed in its entirety, the Company will purchase the property and record it at fair value, which the Company believes will not result in an impairment. The amount of interest the Company will be required to pay has been the subject of further proceedings before the court. On June 29, 2015, the court ruled that interest will be calculated as simple interest at the rate of 12% per annum from May 27, 2008 until the date the Company purchases the property. Simple interest on $114 million at 12% per annum will accrue at the rate of $13.7 million per year, totaling approximately $113 million as of August 31, 2016 . In addition, if the Company is required to purchase the property, it will be obligated to reimburse the seller for real estate taxes, which currently total $1.6 million . The Company has not engaged in discovery regarding the amount of the plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees. If the District Court decision is totally reversed on appeal, the Company will not have to purchase the property or pay interest, real estate taxes or attorneys’ fees. In its June 29, 2015 ruling, the District Court determined that the Company would be permitted to stay the judgment during appeal by posting a bond in the amount of $223.4 million related to pending litigation. The District Court calculated this amount by adding 12% per annum simple interest to the $114 million |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Event | Subsequent Event On September 22, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with WCI Communities, Inc. (“WCI”), under which the Company will acquire WCI through a merger for a combination of the Company’s Class A common stock and cash totaling $23.50 per share of WCI common stock. It is currently anticipated that the merger consideration payable to WCI stockholders will be $11.75 in cash and $11.75 in Class A common stock, with the Class A common stock valued at the average of its volume weighted average price on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on each of the 10 NYSE trading days before closing. However, the Company has the right to reduce the portion of the merger consideration that will be Class A common stock and increase the portion that will be cash, including the right to make the entire merger consideration cash. The Merger Agreement provides that until October 26, 2016, WCI may actively solicit proposals from persons other than the Company. WCI can terminate the Merger Agreement to engage in a transaction that its Board of Directors deems to be more favorable to its stockholders than the transaction with the Company, unless the Company will match the deemed more favorable transaction. However, if WCI terminates the Merger Agreement to engage in another transaction, it will have to pay the Company a termination fee of $22.5 million , or $11.3 million |

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements | In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 will require an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of the contract(s) which include (i) identifying the contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identifying the separate performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date by one year and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date; therefore, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The Company has the option to apply the provisions of ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of applying this ASU recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several ASUs such as ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) , ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients among others. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance stated in ASU 2014-09, instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the revenue standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of these ASUs and ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 amends the consolidation requirements and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required. ASU 2015-02 requires management to reevaluate all legal entities under a revised consolidation model specifically (i) modify the evaluation of whether limited partnership and similar legal entities are VIEs, (ii) eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (iii) affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships, and (iv) provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customers' Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”). ASU 2015-05 provides guidance for a customer to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license or should be accounted for as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. As permitted, the Company has elected early adoption. The adoption of ASU 2015-05 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 requires an acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-16 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities will have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. A practicality exception will apply to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements , and as such these investments may be measured at cost. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. 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 asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is 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 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting (“ASU 2016-07”). ASU 2016-07 eliminates the requirement to apply the equity method of accounting retrospectively when a reporting entity obtains significant influence over a previously held investment. ASU 2016-07 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-09 but the Company does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. 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 the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces the existing diversity in practice in financial reporting across all industries by clarifying certain existing principles in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows , including providing additional guidance on how and what an entity should consider in determining the classification of certain cash flows. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The |

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 August 31, 2016 they were guaranteeing Lennar Corporation's letter of credit facilities and its Credit Facility, disclosed in Note 11. 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 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.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of ConsolidationThe 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 VIEs (see Note 15) 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. |
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, 2015 . 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 and nine months ended August 31, 2016 |
Use of Estimates | Use of EstimatesThe 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. |
Reclassifications/Revisions | Reclassifications/RevisionsAs a result of the Company's change in reportable segments in the first quarter of 2016, the Company restated certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform with the 2016 presentation (See Note 2). These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. |
New Accounting Pronouncements | In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 will require an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of the contract(s) which include (i) identifying the contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identifying the separate performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date by one year and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date; therefore, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The Company has the option to apply the provisions of ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of applying this ASU recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several ASUs such as ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) , ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients among others. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance stated in ASU 2014-09, instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the revenue standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of these ASUs and ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 amends the consolidation requirements and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required. ASU 2015-02 requires management to reevaluate all legal entities under a revised consolidation model specifically (i) modify the evaluation of whether limited partnership and similar legal entities are VIEs, (ii) eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (iii) affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships, and (iv) provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customers' Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”). ASU 2015-05 provides guidance for a customer to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license or should be accounted for as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. As permitted, the Company has elected early adoption. The adoption of ASU 2015-05 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 requires an acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-16 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities will have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. A practicality exception will apply to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements , and as such these investments may be measured at cost. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. 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 asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is 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 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2019 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting (“ASU 2016-07”). ASU 2016-07 eliminates the requirement to apply the equity method of accounting retrospectively when a reporting entity obtains significant influence over a previously held investment. ASU 2016-07 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-09 but the Company does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. 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 the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces the existing diversity in practice in financial reporting across all industries by clarifying certain existing principles in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows , including providing additional guidance on how and what an entity should consider in determining the classification of certain cash flows. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning December 1, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The |
