Pulte Homes Reviews

Great communication & updates during the building process due to LeeRoy’s efforts, he was super to keep us informed since we were in another state miles away from the home being built. He sent pictures, emailed, & called us, always answered our questions & took pride in his job. Kirby, with the mortgage staff, was also very helpful, kind, & efficient. She was quick to respond & her assistance was very much appreciated! Kevin has also been wonderful since moving in to address any concerns we may have. He takes care of issues promptly & efficiently & has been super helpful!

Sales/builder teams were very responsive, helpful, informative and took pride in their work. All Pulte team members we engaged with were enjoyable to to work with.

Pulte Home Builder build a good home. They care about their customer and try keep the project plan on track. When something went wrong, they responded quickly to resolved the problem. They have a good team of sales agent and contraction manager

Salesman mislead us on options and used supply chain issues to give us down graded appliances. Had a number of issues with the finish carpentry. Exterior had mud all over sides and back of house. Was told it would be cleaned by close and on day of closed was a mess. Said it would be cleaned by end of day. Not done, touch up on trim not done, sod was burned out completely in a number of areas. Said it would be replaced. Not done. Pulte Mortgage never presented A competitive offer. Waited until interest rates went up a second time then after considerable pressure submitted an offer that wasn’t even close. Went with own financing and Pulte coordinator waited until day before closing to get information to my closing company. The $10k incentive is a joke. Designed to pay Pulte’s seller fees and difference in exorbitant doc and prep fees. This was my 16th home my 3rd Pulte home. I do not expect anyone to respond to this. You do have my email if you wanted to. ... More

Saleswoman, Britta, is excellent. Helped us through the process. After that, dealing with the various subcontractors Pulte uses has been bad. Subcontractors next door leave garbage that blows onto our property. Mortgage company, cable tv company two examples. Numerous emails to staff not responded to. Pulte and cable company blamed each other for problems. Some strange design choices. One of our two outdoor water faucets is in the garage. No watering of seeded back yard or river birch trees since being installed. I am watering Pulte's property right now. The Pulte people onsite are working hard to help us, but I think they are shortstaffed. Nobody knows what is going to happen with landscaping on the south side of Josiah. Who is in charge here? ...

In all honesty, the home feels that every corner that could be cut was butchered. We have so many issues with the home (doors, carpet, cabinets, paint, bathroom insert, tile, flooring, grout etc etc. Its been a nightmare to say the least...will not do again.

We would like to thank Enrique & Lane! They were very accommodating and responsive to all our inquiries and requests. Pulte is a great builder. We just had some issues with the Warranty Dept and Mortgage Dept. We hope they could improve their work so as to maintain the good reputation of Pulte itself. One of the problems we had on the final walk through of the house was the flooring on the front porch was made of gravels. It was unexpected and it looked so incomplete. This was not presented on the model house, and no one even mentioned that it was an upgrade. Secondly, the location of the gate at one side of the house and the wall on the other was installed all the way at the back of the house. These should at least be part of the standard features for safety reasons. ... More

Honestly i wasn’t too happy with the process. Started off with a sales consultant who didn’t follow up with the process of the bidding. Then because of lack of communication, we had to change the model of the house we wanted and the colors for the exterior. We were told dates of work to be done and no calls or emails to inform us of delays. We understand labor shortages and supply shortage but a simple email or call would help the buyer know estimated times. Then upon closing the title rep gave us the run around. The lawyer that represented us was even frustrated and he’s been doing this for many years and dealt with many new builds. The construction on the home is great the only issue is they didn’t clean up the leftover materials and scraps. I’ve been finding wood boards and small metal gutter pieces that are dangerous in the yard. The front door was dented when being painted and that wasn’t repaired and now I would need to file a claim for the door because we didn’t notice it sooner. We were told we would have something down in the yard for our dogs because the sod cannot be installed until a later date and that hasn’t been done either. We have nothing but a dirt pile and mud. ... More

While we love our new home there are shortcomings. The delivery was rushed and felt as if there were numerous items either damaged, not working, or missing or unfinished. We moved in almost two months ago and only one item of several has been addressed. We still don’t have cold running water, but the vast majority are damaged or cosmetic items. While the price you pay is subjective I feel we paid a large premium for a sub par product in the end with slow service after the sale. There are only so many excuses of trades not being available and supply chain issues which is why we rated the experience as average but how things are handled and once resolved to our satisfaction will ultimately drive our final opinion of if we would recommend or use Pulte in the future. ...

Having a new home built can be exciting and stressful. Future home owners need to separate the supply chain and work force factors from the team who is on site building a new home. During construction we had changes in subcontractors, as well as, Pulte representatives. The ONE constant Pulte representative for us was Gina. She was there when we signed our papers and supported us when days were uncertain. She was always honest with us and painted a realistic picture of what to expect during the building process. Gina was also there after we closed to celebrate with us. Things go right and things go wrong during the construction of a new home. We had crews that were very professional and some crews that rushed their work. We had a site manager who promised more than he could deliver and then we had unbelievable Pulte representatives that cleaned up the mess that others created.. In the end we had a team that rallied behind us and got us in our home so we could start the next chapter of our lives. We are buying new things for our home and creating a new neighborhood with our new neighbors. I believe that Pulte wants to build a great home for every family that comes to them. When things went wrong eventually a top notch rep stepped in to get the standard of our Pulte home to where it is supposed to be. Those reps were always honest and hard working. And then there was one who was ALWAYS there, Gina. ... More

We had a great experience with the Pulte Team from the beginning to the end of the buying process. Victoria and Jim answered all of questions and concerns right away. We are very satisfied with the workmanship and the quality of our home. We would recommend homebuyers to consider Pulte.

So many things wrong with the house. Leaking roof, constant issues that were never corrected. This was the worst experience ever.

Our expectations of moving into a new house was high. We expected great workmanship and flawless installations. That is not what we received. Electrical issues, landscaping issues, windows not sealed and won’t close properly, drainage issues, shoddy masonry work. Not happy new home owners.

The house was rushed so I’m not totally pleased

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you！

great community...people at Pulte seem to really care. Especially Steve R and Kirk L

We love our new home. The construction manager was the best part of the process. There were quite a few hiccups over the months, during the build, prior to closing, supply issues etc. but it’s done and we’re so glad to be here. When we put warranty claims in for things that need to be touched up or minor repairs that we noticed within a week or two of moving into our brand new home they respond pretty quickly. It’s a beautiful home. The HOA fees are extraordinarily high for a neighborhood with zero amenities other than them paying for water sewer and trash and taking care of the landscaping. The H away fees definitely do not match what you get for what you’re paying but we hope those will go down in the future, though that’s unlikely. We have also been here for a month and the post office will not deliver to us because they think it is an active construction zone and Pulte said they were aware of the issue but we have heard zero communication of that or how we are going to get that fixed. It is very difficult having all of our packages in the mail turned away because the post office won’t deliver here while they are building in the neighborhood. I wish Pulte was a little bit more responsive or would communicate better with what they’re working on. And I wish the person That manages the HOA could guide us better. When we have questions we never know who to ask. If you call any 1-800 Pulte phone number you find online it just takes you to warranty department. But who do we talk to for updates about the mail situation in the neighborhood? No one knows who is fixing it or if anyone actually is. Overall, we definitely recommend Pulte and we look forward to many years here and cant wait for the hiccups of buying the first home in a new neighborhood that is still being constructed in to be behind us. Glad we are here for sure! ... More

Everyone involved in helping me buy the home was very helpful.

Terrible experience from beginning to end. “FIELD MANAGER II” made use sign off that the home was done and was still missing many items pointed out and said he’d be back to finish them later pending a positive online review and once given the review we never heard from him again nor will he respond to phone calls or texts. We literally paid for things that are not installed and the items that were installed were done poorly. Missing grout, paint, doors won’t open or close properly. The outside paint is terrible and doesn’t even cover some of the chicken wire. We can’t get help from anyone and our sales rep was also worthless ... More

My wife and I felt very happy and satisfied about the entire process of Pulte's construction to our new house from initial purchase to final move-in. We have experienced a few purchasing new house in our life before we bought this new house from Pulte. Pulte built the best house for our retirement home because this new house has the excellent quality and have increased a huge value in current and future house market. Our experience with the builder’s team was very happy, friendly and professional. They did what they promised. They responded to us quickly and friendly. They did the best efforts and tried their best to build the best house for us. My wife and I would like to recommend Pulte to our all friends and all relatives how excellent this builder was. We want to tell them that we are so proud of our new house built by Pulte. ... More

This is my 5th new property that I buy and the have really bad quality I didn’t like the quality of the townhome in general and they give me the townhome with a lot incomplete areas and poor warranty service

STILL haven't had such things as holes in the walls and a bathroom door that won't close because the hinges were improperly installed repaired. We're also waiting for the refrigerator we ordered instead of the one Pulte's people installed. Service, rotten.

Our experience with Pulte started off a little rocky due to some issues with increasing the cost of the property after we had signed the initial contract. Our builder Barbara was phenomenal. She led us through what might have been a very stressful time in waiting for the property to be built in a great way. She kept us abreast of what was going on and reminded us that our property was being built to the highest of standards. Closing was also seamless as all the documents were submitted on time.

House was 6 month behind schedule. Day of closing did not past inspection and waited for another week. Its been a month after closing and we are still dealing with some issues like tree fell, wrong sink and many others.

The builders from Pulte took great pride in creating this house and took their time to ensure that every detail was to perfection, This is my first new build and we are extremely happy with the final product.
