Del Webb Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

Great purchasing experience. We used Pulte for mortgage, insurance, title and recommended closing agent. We have purchased 5 homes over the years and this was by far the best customer service experience. Overall we are generally satisfied with our home. The one issue we have is the sloppy finish work and painting. Our hardwood floor needed to be refinished, have paint on cabinets and multiple areas where paint coverage is insufficient and color is overlapping. This is a common complaint if you read reviews from different sources so we were not surprised at the poor finish work. I believe over the warranty period these things will be corrected. For years this has been well known to Pulte and they are unable or unwilling to correct….. ... More

Nice community and amenities available

The "Options" part of the sales process felt somewhat "high pressured", The Design Center coordinator was very professional... There seemed to be some confusion between Sales and Design as to what was an available option and/or included. Once Our Project Mgr. took over everything went seamlessly....he was professional, always in touch, quick to respond to our questions, and very thorough during the "walk thru"

We have built six homes and this house is a nice home but to be honest, some of the quality of the product that we paid top dollar for was very disappointing. The paint for example is the cheapest grade of Sherwin-Williams there is. Had to have the bulk of it touched up and we still need to address some more paint issues. It totally will need to be repainted and the carpet we had to upgrade to is quite chintzy and disappointing. We do not feel we got our moneys worth. We know we paid for the location which we love the community, just wish the home had a little higher end offerings for the price we paid. ... More

Del Webb met the deadline but needed follow up for sparkling and paint touch up.

Painters were horrible. unresponsive to issues.

We are overall pleased with our new home. From start to finish, our sales representative was available to assist with any and all concerns or directed us to the appropriate person. The building team leader was responsive to our concerns during and after the House was completed. However, we recommend an independent home inspector and a real estate agent. In our case, both our agent and home inspector agreed that our home was well built

When problems occured Jeremy saved the day, and I thank him f or that. He is a true Professional.

I had a great experience working with Brian, Jeff and Terry from the initial contact to closing. Unfortunately, once we closed on the home I have run into several brick walls trying to resolve lingering construction issues. I would advise buyers to get everything in writing and never sign off on punch list items that have not been completed.

It seems after Pulte gets your money that they dont have any concerns about addressing your issues that arise after the sale. Emails went unanswered and nobody seems to care about the items that need addressed after the money changes hands.

Beautiful area, designs, location. The quality of the finish work was rushed. Poor painting and quality paint. Ended up 250.00 square foot. That's way too much for the end result in the product quality and finish work.

The experience during the building process was good, but once you closed on the property and gave the rating for build process, service and warranty requests were mostly ignored. Adjacent home sites that were being built were messy and never cleaned up, with trash blowing everywhere and onto our property, as well as noisy trades working until 8:00 PM at night.

My husband and I have had approximately 13 homes in the last 18 or 20 years and at least five of them were spec homes that were brand new by reputable builders. We’ve had many issues beyond anything I’ve experienced with this new house in DelWebb NMB. There was no hot water in the kitchen and the faucet was not working properly. It took about two weeks of multiple phone calls and emails to get a new faucet. There’s a broken door going into the den. There was multiple sloppy workmanship and paint and trim, i’m still waiting for the range hood to be replaced that was defective since the day we moved in. We are now in the house almost 3 months. There was also a major problem with the sprinkler system. It took a couple weeks finally to get them to come and look at it, and the workers were very nice and found that the system is broken and the water was squirting right into the front door and into the back porch. We commented on our walk-through before we close that they were defects in the counters in both bathrooms and it took over a month to have someone come and look at it from the counter company and they decided they had to be replaced. Multiple times we set up appointments for them to replace the counters and the company workers did not show up. One time they lied to my project manager and said I wasn’t home and I was home waiting for them. The project manager tries to get vendors to fix things, and they continually do not show up while we wait at home all day, it would be nice if the project manager was more responsive and answering calls and emails and maybe once in a while stopping in to see how a new homeowner is doing on a face-to-face manor. There are approximately 20 homes that have been closed on in the neighborhood and we are all getting pretty friendly with each other and everyone is saying the same thing that the workmanship and quality is very very poor people have problems with their bathrooms, their air conditioner, their windows, mistakes, wrong toilets, wrong shower doors, the subcontractors are not properly supervised and there seems to be no quality control. I was going to recommend this neighborhood to many of my friends and now I’m not so sure because of the quality of the building. My home was $525,000. I feel for that price they should’ve been more quality control. Hopefully the responses to the survey will help you improve the building quality of these houses. They are very pretty and they are in a good location and I think the community is going to be very charming. But people are spending a lot of money and it’s very frustrating Having to wait day after day, week after week to get responses back from project managers and then wait for vendors to come and then they don’t show. ...

Project manager is assigned many houses under construction which takes away from the personalization that they should have with each new home built. When it comes to workmanship, there isn't any. Slam, Bam, lets get it done.

Poor quality in construction, items such as paint, tile, trim (inside and outside), bathroom caulk

I have only been in the house for 2 months. I am sure they will take care of any problems at the 1 year review.I feel very comfortable with everyone at Pulte/Del Webb. There are some design faults which cannot be changed. However the quality of the materials and fixtures are first rate. My main concern is the finish work. Trim poorly installed,paint and clean up should be improved! Our field manager was outstanding and he tried to accommodate us but I felt he was too busy and could not oversee everything.

Sales person shouldgive more in Salesperson should give more detail info on does and don'ts before 2 days before closing. Should be given at contract signing day. More follow up. Just want sell and move on to next customer.

Overpriced homes with basic quality of features and lack of attention to detail. Overpriced design features with limited design choices. No flexibility in design features as per model. Final move in quality lacks completion of all tasks. Still have blue tape on inside and outside home of work not completed. Cleaning team is worthless with windows, appliances and floors filthy. Second sanding and painting dust on everything to included light switches and appliances. Washer water connection not checked, flooded laundry floor the first week in the house. Outside flood lights not adjusted properly and many of irrigation sprinklers were spraying where they just wasted water. Overall experience is poor and shows that building as many homes as possible is the only concern. Worst building experience I have ever experienced. ... More

Working with a builder-company has been very cumbersome. Too many people involved to get things resolved quickly (vs one point of contact) and/or spread too thin. The community itself is nice, the amenities, however I am not thrilled that I have lived here one month and HOA dues already increased 7%. One month and there are issues that were maybe part of "punch list" that are not yet resolved and I have no idea who to contact about them and get the stuff finished/corrected. I have a cracked window, have no idea who to contact about that, etc... It is not a particularly friendly community, especially if you are single - but that is not their target market. The HOA rules are rigid for my taste, some people like that and it does control the quality of the community, This was probably not the right home-buying decision for me. Hopefully I can make it through one year. ... More

I love the home. The buying experience was as good as I believe it can be. Construction Manager was very responsive DURING CONSTRUCTION but after did not return numerous phone calls and texts. Landscaping around my house was very poorly installed. It took weeks to get even a small thing addressed and the large item still has not been.

Sales staff is great and the construction process until the end was great However near the end things get sloppy and do not get taken care of as promised

Overall it was a avg experience There were things that we would of liked to do but they were not a option..we did see alot of waste going in the dumpsters during every home build. With the cost of lumber we were amazed! Since this is a new community and we are at the begining of the build hopefully it will reach the standards of other del webb communities..this is our 2nd del webb home. Thank You

It’s is not easy to get items requiring correction addressed

Experience could have been better if Pulte cared about fit and finish.

Finish work very poor Community overbuilt for its amenity center
