Pulte Builders did a nice job in keeping us informed on the status of our new townhouse build and closing. Home is well built along with a good warranty. Finishes were middle of the line. We bought the home after it had already been completed. We would have upgraded a few things.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the build quality of your townhouse and the communication you received throughout the process! We also appreciate your thoughts on finishes and upgrades, and will be sure to share this with our team for future consideration. Congratulations on your new home, enjoy! ^KH

Just like other builders but also maybe worse

  • Eric R.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 06, 2025
  • Hoschton, GA

Pulte showed throughout the whole process that they didn’t care about anything besides bottom line. From getting the wrong lot opposed to the one we discussed to just predatory lending techniques to horrible landscaping. The whole time I was constantly reminded why I and so many others do not enjoy buying from home builders. My yard will need about $50-$80k worth of retaining walls for any part of it to be enjoyed. It’s clear Pulte realized how much soil/walls were needed to make the lots respectable and they don’t care so obviously they’re doing whatever they can to exit with the most money ...

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

Stay away from Pulte Homes. Far away!!

  • Jorge G.

  • Brownsburg, IN

Home are not even close to the quality they claim. As soon as you sign the purchase agreement, forget about hearing from the salesperson. They will disappear!!! Set up a third party inspector ASAP. They will come up with tons of excuses to not let you use a third party inspector ASAP. None of the walls are straight. Cheap build quality on they way things are done. Plenty of cur corners. Kitchen cabinets only have 1 screw to hold the door hinges. We had a contractor come out and he showed us all the issues with the wall. He said he has never seen how bad the walls are. Go to any other ...

This was an relatively easy process to do from 700 miles away. The house looks great.

  • Joseph M.

My recommendation would be to focus on quality installation of door knobs, hinges, etc. and some of the fine detail in that area. I noted poor craftsmanship in those areas. All others were excellent.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback for us. We’re so glad to hear the overall process was smooth and that your home looks great, especially managing it from 700 miles away!

Very Communicative and Responsive

  • Steven R.

  • Painesville, OH

We moved in late in the build process, house was essentially done, ready to move in. With that said the walk through and findings were taken care of without any push back. There are some paint blemishes, but there is a 1 year walk through where we have been told anything we find will be taken care of. I have full confidence this will be true.

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We're glad to hear that your move in process went well and concerns were resolved during the walk through! However, we're sorry to hear that you are experiencing concerns with your paint, please email customersupport@pultegroup.com with a brief summary of your concerns along with your address and contact information.

Absolutely Pathetic

  • Amanda H.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 06, 2025
  • Flowery Branch, GA

What I would tell prospective homebuyers would be to run far and fast away from Pulte homes! This is my 3rd Pulte home and it will be my last. The quality of the work in the house is abysmal! There is basically zero responsiveness to issues. If there is any sort of followup it’s only when asked multiple times and then the work still doesn’t get completed. The finishes are sloppy and careless and if I couid go back in time knowing what I know now I would never have purchased this home.

  • Mindaugas J.

Too limiting on what we could do during construction. Choices were not all first class. We looked at the cost associated with several changes and decided to do that after we moved in. I wish we had been able to order appliances other than the signature brand (i.e.Wolf)

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We understand that flexibility and variety in selections are important to our homebuyers, and we’re sorry to hear that the available options during construction didn’t fully meet your expectations.

  • Justin M.

Practically every wall in the home is crooked and/or out of plumb, the tile floor we paid nearly $30k to “upgrade” is laid so poorly that it has to be completely torn out and redone, the framing is so out of square in the garage that the garage door hangs off the slab by inches, windows damaged, paint drips and overspray everywhere, garage insulation and office sound deadening options we paid nearly $10k extra for simply weren’t installed, the cabinets are damaged and misaligned, windows are damaged, door trim is beat up and damaged, lights installed a foot off-center in the bathroom, the ...

Construction manager changed right before closing and closing date randomly set

Construction manager changed last minute so very little continuity in support. Closing date was also randomly set without any room for negotiation which was ridiculous.

Know what you are getting

  • Michael L.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • August 06, 2025
  • Lake Villa, IL

Be sure that you know what you’re going to get for your final product. Our home was to include a two car garage. Due to poor grading of the lot, extra stairs were needed to get into the house through the garage. And therefore two cars do not fit in our garage. And Pulte is not willing to compensate us for the loss of value for our home.
