Worst home experience

  • Theageeswar P.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • March 29, 2023
  • Holly Springs, NC

One word to say about pulte is “Worst”. Right from the beginning of home contract signing nothing went according to the plan. Delivery date got pushed 4 times without any prior notice. I was literally homeless for almost 23 days staying in hotels and friends place due to Pultes last minute date push. No compensation was provided with all these issues. More over after moving in, house is sub par. Floors are with paint stains, my master bathroom was completed after a month of move in. Still open issues yet to be addressed by service team. As soon as we raise a service ticket, first response ...

There are several small details and bits have been missed and construction manager should have focused more on these details.

Sale representative Jose is nice. Field Manager Shaun is very patient and supportive. However, the response from warranty group needs to be improved.

Very good overall with limitations

  • Mitchell G.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • March 29, 2023
  • Saint Paul, MN

Purchased primarily for the location and immediate development/community. Quality build and construction with a few over the top features often dictated by over zealous local inspectors. As a spec home, Pulte limits your choices and say in much of the design but this is standard. These are not custom homes. Overall build, fit and finish is very good. Minor issues have been addressed promptly. Final move in readiness also very good but disappointed in condition of garage floor as there were lots of spots of plaster mud and other debris that must now be removed once the weather warms. And will ...

Home Building Process

  • Russell T.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • March 29, 2023
  • Estero, FL

The construction mgr. was OUTSTANDING and made the experience positive despite the negatives. This individual is DIAMOND for Pulte. The finish work (trim, paint, hardware, cabinetry finish) is poor and very disappointing. Response time is fair; the design center and closing depts of Pulte was an awful experience. I would start those depts completely over. Inadequate time for the design review; Communication on available options (hurricane proof windows) was very disappointing that we could have had them without a massive delay; the non-HP sliding doors are poor quality and no one in Pulte ...

Do NOT build with Pulte

  • Michael W.

We've lived in our home for over a month now, and items that were not finished when we closed are still not fixed. Over promise, under deliver, that's the Pulte way.

Quantity over quality

  • Hilliary C.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • March 29, 2023
  • Decatur, GA

We had multiple issues with the final details of our home. The final paint was subpar, sloppy finishing with gaps on baseboards and stairs. We also had a roof leak in our bathroom the first week we moved in. With the price we paid, the finishing details should have been better. We delayed closing twice to have major issues addressed like bowing walls and mal-stained landings.

Be cautious

  • Tyler J.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • March 29, 2023
  • Fort Lauderdale, FL

Be cautious of the “quick move in’s” ours was supposed to be ready in November. Which is why we purchased this home. Did move in till middle of February. Sales agent didn’t even bother to show up on closing day, yet we saw on documents the commission amount. No one was there to explain any HOA details, how to make payment, etc. A few items in house did not work. Still waiting to be fixed.

Hi Tyler, we're incredibly disappointed to hear that you aren't satisfied with your experience and appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention so that we can share them with our local leadership team.

If you buy Pulte Homes you are digging your grave

I don't have any words to say how bad the whole process is and how much mental stress and pain they can give to buyer. Everything they will say we will fix and force you to close the home and they will give you letter of intent and finally after the close ... you hear the words "" As per Plan"", we won't do anything. The new home becomes 10 year old within a year with so many breaks and fixes as part of warranty. The construction team quality is very poor and they think warranty team will fix incase of leaks and issues. So you end up with fighting with warranty and break walls, doors of ...
