Pulte Homes Reviews

Very responsive customer service from all pulte representatives! Build quality is solid, but there are some things that could have been cleaner. No issues impacting anything other than looks.

It was a Brilliant ideas

Our overall experience, while challenging at times was very good. Towards the end of the process, we had a few hiccups, but we trusted and continue to trust Harrison to make good on the fninshed product

Great house nice community

Sometimes simple is great. We purchased a townhouse and didn't have too many criteria so Pulte was a perfect fit. Diandra and Madison were wonderful to work with. The design and selection process was effortless thanks to both of them! We bought at a time where supply was a common issue but Dustin ensured everything was built to expectation and in some cases exceeded.

Great buy. I’m in love with my home!!

We love our home but make sure to keep in contact with your Project Manager

Had a fun experience working with the builders through out the building process.

I am pleased with the quality of my home and all that care and attention to detail was utilized throughout the whole homebuilding process.

The overall experience was good. We were able to monitor the process frequently and were provided information and updates about the status from the construction manager. The closing date was 3-4 weeks later than the estimated, however. The condition of the house is good and any issues are being dealt by the builder

Overall experience is great, price is too high. I have great communication with construction managers. They are very responsive. Love the layout but the workmanship is mediocre but everything is fixed upon request.

The staff that we encountered were amongst the best however, there were a few issues. Closed on the home two months after the projected closing date during the time of contract signing, putting my family in an uncomfortable position without compensation. Múltiple work orders needed within the first week of closing on the home. Still awaiting replacement of a damaged cabinet during installation. Other than these minor issues, very good experience.

Pulte helped us create our dream home when we kept looking at houses others had lived in we had given up hope on finding anything that we would even remotely like. Then we had a consultation with Pulte and were amazed at what they offered and what they could do for us to give us our dream home!

have not replaced window with scratch

Sales team was good and kept me informed on every progress Walkthrough team was great, they helped identify all changes needed. walked me through the warranty details and other important information. overall the team was very helpful and flexible to accommodate the needs.

Finish trades not impressive. CM was very helpful and did his best to address all the issues we had but the trades are slow to respond. Drywall dust on wire racks in closet got everything dirty that we put on it (should've been wiped down). Grouting was terrible with pocket wholes in grout. Overall sloppy job on grouting. Laid five tiles with cracks in it. Overall good experience with the whole process just finish work wasn't the best but they do come and fix the issues if you report them.

The Pulte people were fantastic. This is the 4th home that I have built over my lifetime of 64 years, and this may have been my best experience up front. Compared to my other homes though, the workmanship has been more problematic, but the issues are really only slight things. I hesitate to say anything, because of the smallness, but this is the highest cost and nicest home compared to my others, but came with more problems. I am speaking of things like electrical outlets not working and heating vents that do not operate, and lots of paint left on the floors. I wonder why they didn't test when installed and cleaned up better, but I chalk it up to too few people to maintain standards (shortage of workers). I can understand that, so I would say that I am content. The landscaping is not well at all, so I wish that I would have had a contact for help or discussion. Still overall, the people and their efforts on my behalf greatly outweigh the negative stuff, and I am very pleased. ... More

Maquire and Daniel did a great job with orientation via video call. They were both very professional and considerate about other’s problems. Maquire also went above and beyond. The day we moved in was the day of Hurricane Ian. She bought water and batteries for us. She made sure that we we’re safe. She’s is an angel. Daniel came by and checked on us and made sure everything is okay at home as well.

We knew during this uncertain time of the pandemic that it would take a while to build a new home, and we were right, but the team at the Preserve in SR was second to none! From Karla getting us in the model and location we wanted to Shane ensuring our home is perfect, they have been a great team to work with. There were hiccup’s along the way but we are finally in our home and loving it!! Thanks Pulte!

Overall experience has been great, without any delays.

I honestly love pulte as a builder and their home quality. My experience with the sale agent Alex was great until the end when interest rate spiked up on us. So we as normal people would do, decided to shop around for the best rate. There was a back and forward with their lender and the outside lender when it came to the paperwork requirements. We thought it was a simple fix but after speaking to our sale agent, it’s like our back was against the wall trying to use an outside lender. I don’t regret pultes lender. They ended up giving us a credit and lowering the interest rate based on on my most recent credit score. We did not want any issues with the builder penalizing us on closing late fees. I think my sale agent was not too happy about that because he would mention he would look into something for us from his higher ups than never followed up if they could do something for us. His gift to us was Divosta bag with mini tools in it. I remember him taking a past customer a nice gift bag. My suggestion is if you’re going to use an outside lender, shop around early although, closing date may get pushed back several time on the builder end. Lack of material made it difficult closing on time. Right when we were going to sign our contract, they removed the refrigerator and washer/dryer out the sale price. It was a regret at the end for us because 2000 credit they gave us did not add up to the 6k we ended up spending on those appliances itself. The sale price was kind of high of course living in SFl and the current market. When we signed our contract, the bidding process was over for pulte. The structural we added were things we know we weren’t going to be able to do to the home later on. There are many designs that are considered an upgrade, there wasn’t any incentive at the time. If I could go back, I wouldn’t have added a corner lot since backyard is wide opened facing the street and HOA only allow bronze aluminum fence or privacy hedges. That’s something to think about if you’re big on privacy. Overall, the upgraded materials are great. The thermostat and bathroom basic are a little cheap to me. I love my built in kitchen and the appliance that came with it. There were small correction needed during the walk through. The construction manager was responsive and handled it as promised. The 4 star is the turn around time on closing turned out to be 6–8 months to 1 year and 1 month. I still recommend pulte to friends looking for new construction. ... More

Overall good, but can be better on communication and response on issies raised during construction. Build quality need to be improved on details. We are still waiting on unfinished things after closing for more than a month.

Our build took a long time because of pandemic and supply issues, but our project manager from Pulte, Gavin, continued to give us regular updates on our progress. During one visit to the community, he met with us and walked through our build, identifying key features in the structure and listening to us. What made that so significant was that he remembered the things that were important to us and made sure our new home had everything in place that was in our list of concerns.

Overall, very good experience, any issues have been dealt with in a timely and professional manner - friendly service on sales and construction end as well. The only challenge was the mortgage portion. In the end it was fine. Perhaps more emphasis should be in communications on that end - speak to the homeowners' level of understanding. Most prospective home buyers do not have a wealth of experience on the ins and outs of the mortgage process/system. Figures and terms can become difficult to keep up with and clearly understand. For most people this is the biggest purchase of their lives. They should have a crystal clear understanding of all the details. Again, it turned out just fine. Good experience overall. ... More

Closing lawyers are a joke!!
