We had a great experience from beginning to end. Sales representative was very knowledgeable & informative, not just during the initial sales but throughout the construction period. The site manager was also well informed and responsive. We are now working with the warranty representative & he too is very responsive and very helpful. I feel Pulte really cares about the customers and they built us a really beautiful home. We retired and this is our forever home and we look forward to many happy years in it.

It was my first experience with Pulte. I would highly recommend it, and if I ever looked to buy another home, I would definitely look into a polo. Thank you for my wonderful new retirement home.

The construction manager would say he was going to do something, but then would never follow up. The next in line manager was very helpful, very responsive. Still some issues with window and lanai sliding door after closing 2 months ago. Should be resolved this month although very unhappy with the way they left the garage floor. Paint, stains …total mess doesn’t look like new construction.

Magnolia Ranch

We feel very fortunate to have been able to build a home in Magnolia Ranch. The value of what we received with all the extras included is unmatched to other neighborhoods around here. Specifically the hurricane impact windows, the tile roof, the paved driveway and patio, screened patio all included as the standard! We were very pleased with the care that went into our home. Our project manager Dan was great! Maguire was lovely to work with during the buying progress. AJ continues to be helpful with the warranty process.

We love our villa in Avanti, Madison, our sales consultant was great, and so was Andrew, the contract manager, we are finally home! I would steer away from Pulte Mortgage though, had the worst experience with them, and had to look for another lender in a rush to get the purchase going, it all worked out at the end!

Our job superintendent was super caring and communicative. We did have some bumps to be expected with a new build-cracked tub-which got replaced after closing. Refrigerator doors had rust on them not noticed until after the closing-weather stripping in entry door needed adjustment as bugs were coming in. Our sales person left Pulte during our build so Tucker took her role on. I know he was busy but really went above and beyond to make sure our concerns were all addressed. We were told by sales agent we wouldn’t have a problem getting a pool installed-the homes are so close together-our ...

Great Experience. Great people. Not so great workmanship

  • Daniel O.

We built great relationships while building our home with Pulte. The sales experience was great. We were able to secure a great deal on our homesite and build. The building project manager was very communicative, professional, and understood and tended to our concerns. He really went above and beyond. The only negative part of our entire experience is that for what we paid for the home—the workmanship and details on certain things is almost unacceptable. Some door jams unlevel. Walls bowed. Ceilings lines unlevel. These are things that you don’t necessarily catch unless you look for them ...

I was very discouraged by the home market after searching for a home for two years. I got a text from my realtor about quick move ins and went straight to look. What I found was great curb appeal and great value at a great price. One look and I signed the next day. I am SO glad I did not overlook Pulte. The entire experience was totally painless and everyone was very helpful and responded quickly.

We bought a speck home which was Quick Move In , We bought in September and closed in beginning of December. We didn’t have to choose anything and loved all the finishes, so that made it stress free . Sean, building manager, was very helpful and always available to answer any questions and help us with concerns. A very easy transition for us.

Great home price from a reputable builder

Overall I had a great experience building my home in Lakewood Ranch Florida. Sales always kept me up to date, and the construction process went as expected. After settlement the only repair items remaining are cosmetic. For example: dented doors, paint in the grout, broken screens, etc. all of these items are easily mitigated.

Absolutely love it, but...

Overall, we love our new home and everyone we dealt with from Pulte Homes was amazing. However, there were just a couple of things that “bothered” us. The first thing is that we were a little disappointed in the shortage of options in the catalog for selecting materials and finishes. We just felt for the price of the home, there should be a little more variety or more potions available to the buyer. Second, I think a little more attention should have been placed in cleaning the home when the build was completed. I noticed some sort of clear residue and white caulking on the floors ...

We built a Pulte home during the height of the pandemic without ever seeing it in person. At the time, travel to the other state was prohibited. The sales team and our protect manager did a great job of keeping us informed by sending frequent photos and videos to update us on the progress. We made a few changes along the way and they were very accommodating. Thank you to Pulte team - we love the house!
