Pulte Homes Reviews in Detroit, MI

Pulte makes the home building process easy. The timeline mapped out in the beginning really helped us understand how the process would go.

Painting has to be better

Great updates on building process, and response by the building team. On time building date.

Build structure is good : Satisfied. Interior installation : Pay attention to workmanship Paint quality : is VERY BAD.

In general the home buying experience went well.

The quality of the work is not as expected. There are numerous issues, including uneven drywalls with visible hiccups. Additionally, the painting has not been done properly; touching the walls reveals marks.

I’ve had a few issues with quality of materials and craftsmanship. Bathroom door hinge screws all stripped out. S so the door fell off. Two interior door handles fell off. Had issues with water sensor triggering. So A/C wouldn’t work. I’m sure there are more issues to come. Also, warranty work is only done 9am-5pm. Guess when I work??? So they won’t come to fix things when I’m home.

Great home overall and the process was easy.

Can't say enough about Brian and the front office. Open door policy. For the most part my house is my dream house! Neighbors are are welcoming and friendly. A few problems but I have confidence it will be resolved.

Overall experience was quite good - really appreciated and trusted our project manager through the process. Pulte had a big push to close homes before the end of December resulting in a rush by a number of contractors, not having sufficient time for appliances and only one day between walk through and closing so some paint touch ups were missed and the tape is still on the wall. On site Team has been wonderful and very responsive, contacting Pulte for follow up on an electrical issue required multiple follow ups from our end to get the issue resolved, but again, on-site Team was terrific.

Completion was not what I was looking for in some areas. Was told to many times about warranty after issues addressed before closing. Would suggest not to close until your house has been inspected by your own source because it’s cost me. Cleaning was not up to par at all.

There high level packages did not make sense .. they were not very accommodating over modifications.. we liked few things in one package and few from other also to select there are no more houses for all models neither have color schemes which we can see and realize how it will look like.. Within first week the kitchen grout came off when I told the construction manager during one week review he suggested to raise a service request Grout issue is happening with almost everyone I. Know

Expected better workmanship from Pulte.

We were ecstatic to close and move into our new home! The salesperson Dave I. was amazing. Everything seemed good, until we noticed a crack in one of the living room windows, then sockets in the basement weren’t working within the first 2 weeks. Warranty came out to review the issues, and will get back to us soon. The most disappointing event that has occurred, is the furnace/humidifier is already leaking, and a hot water pipe from the dishwasher has caused water to leak onto our treadmills in the basement. This is less than 2 months after closing. Building materials are nice, but based on our experience so far, attention to detail in workmanship has clearly been sacrificed for the sake of speed. ...

Antoine was superb in responding all out queries. The only cons with the process was the walk around in the house during the handover. Nevertheless, the total experience with pulte was great.

Good overall experience. The sales representative and the building project manager were very responsive and informative throughout the process

The buying experience was good, but there wasn't any introduction to my home

The initial process of buying and the beginning of the construction process was great. My salesperson was fantastic during the process. He was quick to address my questions and concerns and never made me feel like I was bothering him. He was definitely a pleasure to work with. Once the construction process was coming to an end, the two-way communication with the construction manager wasn’t as great. I was told that he’s very busy which I understand. However, perhaps having two people for the job would be better so that the buyer can get their questions answered and things followed up on in a timely manner. Now that I’m all closed, there’s still a couple of lingering things I wanted addressed but I’m over chasing it down and will have to have someone else come finish it up. All in all, I had a good (not great) experience with the process with Pulte and I’m enjoying my new home. ... More

Love our home. Biggest complaint is the standard finishes we kept and didn't upgrade, Wish the standard paint was better quality. Can't touch the walls without marking them up.

Wish the office was more responsive to issues. They sold out the homes then closed the office and we were on our own.

I believe the level of responsiveness to issues should be improved.

Professionally executed build process. Good team.

overall experience is good and nice support for fixing things for the house

Sales team was very helpful during initial contact but pushy and sometimes misleading at times up until closing. The design process was quick and easy and the women at the design center were extremely helpful. Building was delayed due to weather and pandemic shortages but overall an easy experience with good communication. Thus workmanship was good quality for the price but not completely finished. Attention to detail was definitely missed. Pulte made it impossible to use an outside lender but were not forthcoming about that until just before closing. Once we started the process with Pulte Mortgage they were very helpful and were able to help us with a smooth process at the last minute. The closing process was very easy and title company made it possible to do most of it online before the actual closing appointment. Make sure you inspect everything carefully and take your time at your final walk-through before closing. Overall, despite some bumps in the process we would recommend buying a Pulte built home. ...

I had previously lived in a Pulte Condo which I truly thought was a 5 rating - all I needed or wanted. This second time around - I would rate it inferior to what I enjoyed the first time. Realizing that the times now are different with great help hard to find in different areas, some of what I experienced could be understandable - but not all.
