Pulte Homes Reviews

My experience in living in properly sealed home is the comfort level in very high. waking up in the morning is not a big deal any more cause of the material of the carpet and flooring is high quality.

The PM in charge of my house construction was great. He was always keeping me informed, on schedule, and when an issue happened, he has been always taking care of it, immediately. The only thing I miss is the option of being able to make changes to the house, like the flooring, along the way.

Overall, I think the builder provides solid quality and value for the money. Mine was a model though it had only just been framed when I signed the contract. If you buy a model, there is absolutely no flexibility from the builder. The answer to every question is no. I didn't think that was necessary, but just be prepared. Further, some of the information they leave out is annoying, i.e. the finish of the walls. Or the items that are extra, low cost, but annoying, i.e. no keypad for the garage is included, or the poor looking garage floor. Having said that, it does appear to be a well-built house and the warranties seem to be a big positive. The construction manager is great, but again, his hands are tied. For a little effort to some small details, they could have gotten 5 stars from me. ... More

Great experience. Enjoying our new home.

Nice experience. No issues

Some minors details, mostly finishing and flooring.

The home took a bit longer than estimated to be completed. But that is understandable given the supply chain issues plaguing every industry these past few years. Our Sales Consultant and Construction Manager did an outstanding job navigating the setbacks this caused and ensured our closing date, once established, did not get delayed. Although, a few minor things still needed touch-up after our move-in, we are satisfied with the overall quality of the home and their persistence to ensure any post-closing line-items are fully addressed.

As a first time buyer, I had a very positive experience. Kyle kept me up to date with the progress of the construction. During my walkthrough, he was very professional. He was a pleasure to work with during this process. Kyle was thorough during the walkthrough as he pointed out details and pending issues with the build while assuring me that he would personally see that each issue that needed to be complete or corrected. As the closing date was approaching, he organized all the trades involved and made sure to resolve all pending items on the build. Kyle was true to his word and I felt like I was heard, treated with respect and he made extra efforts to make sure that I would be satisfied when handing over the keys to the house. I feel very blessed to have Kyle as my superintendent! Pulte is very fortunate to have Kyle on their build team! ... More

The house is good and John.is very responsible person. Answer the.mail and fix the.problem quickly.

We really enjoy our new Pulte home! It's a good quality home. We wish it was easier working with the closing company but Pulte Homes build good solid homes with great floorpans and we are very happy with our house. WE LOVE IT!

Although the home was delivered a month late, the construction team was responsive and kept us informed of progress and issues.

With Covid ending and supply chain issues, I am unsure where any blame should go. Our 1st Pulte home was very smooth, but this had many road bumps in the build. Pulte tried to fix everything quickly, but they had to rely on others, which was the issue. Ian also did not help. Next time I will look to rehab an existing house if there is a next time. Pultie's Superintendent gave us his best effort, which made things better.

share your experience in five words

All of the people were very eager to make things smooth for me and provided friendly, high-service experience. But there was always a limit to what they could do. If I wanted something outside of their scope, there was no price that simple additions could be added. My prior Pulte home had so many upgrade options that I was surprised that there were such hard limits for a simple upgrade.

Marianne (sales rep), Malcolm (project mgr), Andrew (Customer service mgr) are outstanding and have been a pleasure to work with. Unfortunately, their workload is increased by the lack of responsiveness of the Pulse suppliers. I closed two months ago and I don't have the washer and dryer that I ordered. The workmanship from the cabinet supplier install team was surprisingly poor. Several structural issues were ignored. The painting crew was sloppy. I have permanent non-removable paint marks on my tile floor, and some damage from using paint remover on the floor tiles. The door jambs have irregular cutouts which prevents the doors from closing properly and staying closed. The pool and spa were permanently stained from construction debris and yet the pool contractor filled it with water and expected us to accept it in that condition. The lack of regard for the property during construction by the subcontractors seems to be the source of most of the issues on my punch list. Both bath tubs had to be resurfaced because the crews threw the protective liners into the swimming pool and used the tubs as trash receptacles. A large crow was trapped in the pool cage over a weekend because workers left the doors open. The crow put holes in the cage screens. We are very fortunate to have such dedicated partners in all this (specifically, Marianne, Malcolm, and Andrew). They work very hard to get issues resolved. They are amazingly customer focused. They remain positive and pleasant when presented with issues. I work full time and having to deal with a long punch list takes a significant amount of my time as well as the Pulte team. I think everyone's time is valuable and wish that the subcontractors shared that belief. ... More

Overall it was a good experience with Pulte. They were timely with responses to our questions and concerns. We were a little disappointed with the painting of the inside of our home. I feel like they rushed our closing so it would be done in 2022. Also, we are concerned with what we are seeing with driveway concrete- it appears to be flaking. But I’m confident they will address these concerns during our 1 year check in.

Thank you to everyone from Pulte who helped us through this process!

I'm very happy with my home. I don't regret purchasing at all. I think the hand off after closing could have been better coordinated. There was supposed to be a celebration walk and all these different support groups to meet, but none of that happened as planned. It left us a bit confused as to who we're supposed to contact when receptacles don't have power or we need to check up on our punch list. It's been a month since we've moved in and our punch list is still pretty long. Only 1 issue has been resolved out of about 10, and we don't have any sort of schedule to predict when the rest of the issues will be fixed. Resolving the punch list gets 1.5 stars. I think Luis G. our construction manager deserves a huge pat on the back. Even though the house was running late, he had a great attitude, and we felt like he took care of us no matter what sort of issue came up. If it had been anyone else, I feel the experience would have been very different. All of my light switches are in different order in all the bedrooms and bathrooms. That's super annoying. It's either fan, fan light, lamp or lamp, fan, fanlight, etc.. ... More

I'm very pleased with my townhome by Pulte. The design is good, the choices were good, dealing with Pultes employees was great, and the overall build was good. I'd definitely recommend them. I absolutely love my layout with a terrace and loft. The design choices were great! I only have a few minor complaints which all of them have been fixed. They miswired my HVAC so the middle floor thermostat sent air to the upstairs floor and my CAT6 outlet was also miswired. Very easy fixes. Both of these issues were subcontracted so I dont really know if I can fault Pulte for it. One thing Pulte should have offered was window blinds and ceiling fans. For some reason they didnt so be prepared for that. Pulte was quick to fix any errors or deal with any complaints I had. Overall I would repurchase my home if I had to do it over. I'm very happy with new townhome. ... More

Thank you all very good specially Kay who was really great!

Overall im realy pleased with the quality of home. To me the hip roof over concrete construction feels like the rock of gabralter floors ,doors showers everthing seems solid n smooth. All mechanical stuff functions well . I still believe the large price increase from January 2021 up to November 2021 was out of line almost 80k . Swimming pool is beautiful n solid follow up from pool company terrible . Babcock ranch is amazing place done by engineers n good people. The tiny bike path road in front of my house is absolutely silly n was givin little thought considering the great engineers around here. It should be widened by 5 ft on the away from houses side especially for any potential emergency vehicles trying to get to patient . Fabio our field manager was excellent. I would definitely recommend Pulte. ... More

We signed for our new home in March of 2022 and we’re told our home would be ready in the spring….March or April of 2023. Then we were rushed to close in December which only benefited Pulte. Outside brick was installed the day of the closing.

My experience dealing with the people that lead and built my home was fantastic. They were communicative during the whole experience and I felt informed all of the time. Their overlords at the corporate office were a different story. Very uninformative and very hard to get a hold of. Thank goodness I didn't have to deal with them very often. I would recommend building a home with Pulte, just make sure that you stay in constant communication with the folks actually involved and building your home. They were fantastic. My brother also built a home in Creekstone directly after me and his experience was very similar. ... More

Be sure and review everything carefully. I caught the sales rep with errors particularly with change orders. At one point she asked me to select different cabinets because I changed to built in appliances which I never did. When I received the final closing documents price did not match my final change order. I believe sales rep forgot to submit the last change order. Beware of Procom Pulte's partner for smart home features. Very deceptive practices in order to make more sales after close. Thought I was getting a "system" when all I was getting were speakers. Only allowed in home 1 time during build process ask for more so you can see quality. Ended up with scratches in tub which Pulte stated was not covered under warranty. ... More

Good experience in general, house looks like well robust build (for the 1st month living there) Hopefully will be in that same way in the next years.
