Pulte Homes Reviews

We love the model, the process was quite simple and the post move in team have been extremely responsive and helpful (Ryan is the customer relations person). Our construction super (Steven Chipman) has been wonderful as well. Our comment would be - we would encourage you to step the quality control checks prior to move in. While your team has been fantastic in responding, we think that many of the items could have been detected on the front end. Last, the only major concern has been around the overall paint job --- the painters were not good. Simply stated. We have shared this feedback with Pulte. ... More

It was a good experience overall, we love our house. There are a couple of matters we expected to have been handled betterm

Built the Furman Plan on River Green and put in all the options that we could think off. Wish we extended the Gathering room since we spend most of our time there. Very happy with the open floor plan and proximity to everything. Love the Master on main. Downsized from a 3600 sq ft house to a 2880 sq ft house and we feel that we are not cramped and have plenty of space for everything that we need.

Pulte Condos in Crown Gaithersburg review – Pros: The location of these condos in Crown, Gaithersburg Maryland is fantastic - they are within a stone throw distance from Crown city center that includes 7+ good restaurants/bars, a Starbucks store, a great wine shop, a Harris Teeter, a Sports club and other stores. With easy access to 270, MD 200-ICC and close proximity to Shady Grove Metro Station the location speaks for itself. The external look of the building is very modern and attractive. The building is located across from the pool and community center and therefore has easy access to these amenities. Inside the unit, the upgraded kitchen appliances and washer/dryer are excellent. The floor plan I choose – Brooklyn has nice size open kitchen and living room area. I will definitely give building a 4.5+ star rating out of 5 stars especially because both, the Sales and Delivery/Operation staff is very professional and attentive. Having said that, there are a few elements that could have been designed better to get a 5 star from me. Cons: - The sound proofing in the building, both internally and externally is nearly nonexistent, the ceiling is lower than 9 feet, there is only one elevator in the building of 32 residents that not only is inconvenient but it is also a single point of failure especially for elderly living on the 3rd and 4th floors, the parking is very limited with a very flimsy and noisy garage door protecting the entrance, the adjacent same size windows do not have symmetrical dimensions and therefore creates a challenge for designing high-end window treatment. For the unit size of 1500+ sq. ft. The balcony size is a joke. Obviously, some of these are design while others are construction quality control related issues. Bottom-line - While the corporate planners/architects plan these Condos to maximize the square footage and utilization for obvious reasons however, they do neither have experience nor inclination to make the design for functional living. There are way too many of these smaller features I can list here that can be easily incorporated into the design that makes a good design great but this review already too verbose. ... More

it is complicated to have every little detail worked out, however you do a pretty good job in this regard just a matter of having some areas duly cleaned for delivery...acces gate, garage for example.

The home is great however the paint and some small details are needing to be fixed. The paint comes off easily on the walls. There are some issues with walls having weird curves and bulges. The main concern is I was never told there would be such a steep driveway which is an annoying issue and for someone with a bad back adds additional issues.

Recommend for people for new build

The quality of the home is great. It took a bit longer than we anticipated, but we are in and they made all the fixes we asked for and we are quite happy.

Very pleased with our Field Manager, he really paid attention to detail!

Pulte offers a very nice home building experience. They have several models to choose from and the quality of work is very good. Just be sure to review all the options before you sign your contract so that you can tailor your home to your liking. These are not custom built homes but you have many options to choose from and can build your dream house at a very affordable price.

We had a few issues but they were addressed in a timely manner. The team seemed genuinely concerned with our satisfaction. Wasn't thrilled with the Pulte Title experience, but on the builder side and the management of the construction, we were satisfied. Would indeed do it again, knowing what we know now.

Our Field Manager, Bill, was VERY GOOD. He made the experience less worrisome than I expected. He answered questions within a day. He took care of issues immediately. I would give him a 5 out of 5

Inconsistencies from sales that were passed on to builder. Strange methods of selection with sales (other home owners before and after us experienced the same). Our home is great and we really like it. Our builder was great, straightforward and had good response time with action. Good follow up to typical issues after move in

I requested for a lawn repair for over 3 weeks and nothing has happened

Working with Alex and Emily was good. At the end they had many contracts I felt we got lost in the shuffle. For the most part, we are pleased with our new house.

We love our home. Working through several final details/issues has been sucessfull so far, I never give 5 star ratings on anything as a rule, this is sure close ;) Built a house prior to this, which was a nightmare, what a difference, in a good way, this time.

Responsiveness started off strong but got a little frustrating towards the end and after closing.

Let homebuyer choose landscape plants

The home is relatively amazing. The contracted workers(painters, etc.) were pretty sloppy and didn’t pay attention to detail at all. Pulte and Georgia Power did an amazing job, but the painters and dry wallers etc. made a bit of a mess of a good thing. I would recommend the company, but they need to pick better workers.

Pulte puts together a beautiful home, very pleased with it. However, after just a few weeks already noticed a handful of areas where there wasn’t as much detailing in the final product as was initially portrayed. Would still recommend Pulte and purchase from them again.

Lot price is a direct cash in their pocket. Other than that, the quality of building is great, they are generally responsive to any post sales work, although maintenance requests can take a bit longer. Overall, recommended!

The houses are not custom built but are mass produced using local labor with oversight from Pulte Managers. There are rigid construction practices and quality is acceptable but do not deviate.

Read all the paper work before agreeing to sign with pulte mortgage . They say they will give you $10,000.00 toward close but not really when they are paying for stuff that is typically paid for by the seller out of said $10,000.00

i am not completely satisfied about the house for the price i paid. i upgrade a lot of stuff in the house, and as soon as i moved in I found out a few things started chipping and peeling, i called, emailed, texted, it took a month for me the get answer and i got an attitude too. this is my second Pulte home, i have to say i am disappointed. And if i get another house, it will not be Pulte.

I did not rate Pulte 5 stars for quality of workmanship and value for the price paid. While I understand I did not purchase the highest upgrade, I somehow believe from past buying experiences with another builder, that Pulte could still have done better for the price paid. As a big construction company with strong buying power, Pulte could have done better in terms of quality of carpet installed, the stove which is still a burner instead of flat top, and the lack of over-the-stove microwave, all of which are already reasonably priced these days. Medicine cabinets should have been installed in the two full bathrooms instead of just flat mirrors as a space saving strategy. As this unit I bought is already designed for a certain model, I should have been offered the chance to have a refrigerator and a washer/dryer installed at the time of buying so that those are already in the unit at time of closing. Of course, for an extra price for those appliances. This would have saved time on my end upon move-in. The employees are why I gave 5 stars for trustworthiness and responsive to issues. Just had a couple of calls made to get someone to come and worked on a couple of issues, but still in due time. Will I buy again from Pulte? Yes, overall, but I hope to see truly better value for the price paid even if I don't have to go for the highest upgrade. ... More
