there is air in the lines, need new fluid, your calipers are mounted upside down/wrong sides, bleeder valve always is on top. Or your rotors are too thin, can be several things

You might have a bad brake booster or a vacum leak to the booster. Also check your pads for wear and if they are still good adjust the rear brakes to get some of the slack out of it.
