buying a Pulte home
- Richard C.
- Verified HomeBuyer

- Ladera Ranch, CA
our entire experience buying this Pulte home has been a total pleasure from beginning to completion. Our sales representative (Tatyana) was professional, knowledgeable and always extremely helpful. The construction team (led by Javier and Anthony) always made us feel like we were their only customer and continually went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied and happy with our purchase. This is our 5th time purchasing a brand new home in the last 30 years and this has been far and away our best experience. We are very happy in our new Pulte home.

Not a great experiene
- Jessica V.

I've purchased three new homes, and my experience with Pulte was the worst compared to Shea and Lennar. The entire process—from loans and communication to workmanship and customer service—was disappointing. Despite my familiarity with home buying and real estate, Pulte failed at every step. Issues remain unresolved, and communication is virtually nonexistent. Receiving the keys felt confusing and lackluster, unlike the special experience new homebuyers should expect. The loan process was frustrating, especially without a rate tracker. The sales team misinformed me about upgrades, and the ...

We are incredibly satisfied with the entire process of purchasing and moving into our new home. From the initial consultation to the final move-in day, every step was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. The smooth transition gave us peace of mind, knowing we were in good hands. The sales team was outstanding. They were not only professional but also very enthusiastic, always responding promptly to our questions and needs. One standout moment was the comprehensive walk-through arranged before our move-in. The construction team meticulously went over every aspect of the home, ...

The work is very rough, and one door does not close after 2 months of use. A beam is skewed a bit as well. Kind rough for the work to be done here

The site/construction manager is quick and responsive to any quality issues and address it in a satisfactory way. This is the only worthy note of the whole process. Other areas need improvement, especially the sales, the quality and the design of the house.

Overall not a pleasant buying experience
- Venkata B.
- Verified HomeBuyer
- May 03, 2023
- Irvine, CA
Overall not a pleasant buying experience. Lack of communication and transparency. Sales and Mortgage teams are completely disconnected. No point in going with Pulte Mortgage if there is no proper ownership and communication. Delays in construction timelines not communicated until we ask for it. Very poor sales experience. Lost all happiness of moving to new homes with hard sales process. I would expect better transparency, flexibility and talk to customer to create positive experience in the current market conditions.
Pulte Homes responded:
Hi Venkata, thanks for taking the time to write this review and let us know how we can improve. We apologize that our communication has not been up to par and will certainly share these comments with our local leadership team.

A lot of people are a part of the home buying process which created unneccessary headaches due to communication issues. Once in the home there have been NUMEROUS quality issues that were missed during the repair time after the walkthrough. Some things were covered up and would never have been discovered until they became an issue if it wasnt for the fact that we decided to change some fixtures. Mis-cut holes in the ceiling that was covered up with extra caulking and paint, cracked cabinets that, dents and dings in cabinets which were just painted over with a seemingly different sheen ...

Purchased a home with this company and honestly nothing but issues. They come and fix but it takes time/only available on weekdays and just an overall pain to deal. They also didn’t march the model home entirely and weren’t very helpful with much after the sale, don’t recommend

We. Loses escrow on our new home at the end of November 2022. This property was bought as investment property and we immediately listed it for rent. We were fortunate to find a qualified renter who agreed to move into the home at the end of December. Three days after moving in, the half bathroom toilet on the second floor backed up . After further inspection, it appeared when the toilet was flushed on the third level, it stopped up on the lower level. Being it being New Year’s Day , the tenant contacted the emergency number for Pulte. They responded reasonably fast and were at the ...
