Pulte Homes Reviews

Thanks guys for all your help. I'm sorry it took me too to complete this review. I lost it with the rest of the emails. Thanks again.

Edward, my construction manager, is always polite and professional. What’s more, he is from my observations a very hardworking working and knowledgeable supervisor. Overall, a great homebuying and building experience with Edward. We have a beautiful new townhome and are pleased with our neighborhood. Yes, there remains a checklist of moderate and small issues to be corrected, and I am expecting that the Pulte process will have a fully satisfactory result.

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 had an amazing salesperson in Gita and the last two months of our build, the project manager David was phenomenal. Initially the responsiveness to issues were slow. That changed immediately when David took the responsibility of our property. Since moving in, there are minor issues we have discovered, and I am happy to say that 90% of these have been addressed. We planned on making this our forever home, therefore finding a builder with a respected reputation to quality was important. We believe we nailed it with Pulte. We would absolutely recommend Pulte to our family and friends.

It was the first time experience purchasing a brand new home built from the ground up! It was the fascination process of seeing how the house was constructed through many stages from the ground to wood frames and to a complete house with all features and options inside and outside at the end! It was also the great process and experience with Pulte staffs, i.e ., sale representatives, design center, loan advisors and on-site foremen/engineers, who were very knowledgeable, helpful and professional from the beginning, during and towards the end of the whole purchase process! Over all, it was the great, easy and interesting experience throughout the whole process of purchasing a new built house with Pulte! Thank you Pulte! Y’all do the great job! ... More

Kitchen cabinet paint job wipes off with water. The wood is bleeding through as are the repairs done either on site or the factory before we took ownership. Drywall finish is shabby, with several lines throughout with drag marks visibly present along with bad patch jobs. Continue to have missing trim in the master bathroom, glass for both showers were a week and three weeks late and installed after closing. Footprints in the concrete from workers walking across while wet continues to bleed through. Cracked sidewalk in courtyard walkway. Promises made to us for "help" after close on oven replacement, screen replacement, have yet to be completed as the new oven we were promised help on is still sitting in our garage. The broken screen is still hanging off of the house. We purchased cabinets and counter tops for our laundry room, these are to be installed after close, we cannot get an answer from anyone as to when these will be ready and installed. ... More

Expected more for a company that advertised itself as “Higher Standards-That’s the Pulte difference” or “Commitment to Customer Care”.

Overall we are happy with our home purchase. Our sales agent Amy went above and beyond to make sure all our questions were answered throughout the process. Our field manager Mike was good to work with. He made sure to address any concerns and ensure we were happy with the final product. And finally Trish with Pulte Mortgage went above and beyond to take care of our mortgage needs. Thanks, Todd and Veronica.

Pulte works with you through the whole process & keeps you informed about the building process! It was a great experience.

I wrote my complete review already on the last review.

The buying experience was great! I love my home! Just disappointed with many of the finishing 'touches'. Trim work on stairs is less than stellar, almost amateur, there are holes in the sheetrock where plumbing is attached and the cabinets have many dings. Those are a few items on my list.

Home layout is great. However, during walkthru I highly recommend to have ALL of your issues addressed (and you yourself confirm) before you actually sign and close. Don't let them force you to close without addressing your concerns. Once you sign, their "warranty" process is extremely slow and all of the promises of being attentive and responsiveness to warranty claims are almost non-existent. You will constantly have to reach out however you can to get them to address your claim.

I was dissatisfied with Pulte Homes. I think possibility the majority of the people in the development was unhappy with Pulte (be interesting to take a poll). I have a 35 year construction background. Our home quality of workmanship is below average. Their was code violations not caught by their third party inspections. Our project was in the Charleston County area of South Carolina. I point my finger at CCBD for not being on top of what was going. Beware of the contract, Pulte will make note they can substitute like materials from one house to another.

The workmanship of the home could've been better, some of the walls weren't straight, they had a curve in a few of the walls, the sheet rock was stood up instead of laying flat on the ground when the house was being built. So our closing date was delayed almost 2 weeks to fix the problem. And we asked for a tray ceiling in our dinner room but it wasn't built, they claim that they didn't hear us ask for tray ceilings, I was really upset about that, but we created something better instead, it looks good.

This was a real nightmare of an experience and Pulte was not great. The quality of the finishes and paint were highly questionable. The options were limited and that was very disappointing. Most expensive home I’ve ever had and perhaps the least satisfying

Over all very good so far no issue it been couple month. I would really thank Blair who helped me lot during purchasing.

Home took longer than expected which cost us a lot of money in storage of furniture, moving costs and housing costs while we waited for completion. We understand supply chain issues caused these delays and our supervisor did everything he could to satisfy us, which we appreciated.

There were 3 price increases while we waited to sign the contract to build. The developer and builder own the HOA. We wee told the community prohibited investors and rentals, but we have discovered two rental properties by investors. The builder and warranty division are non-responsive. Don't close on your house until the builder performs on all items of your punch list. After you close, you are not a priority to them, and they forget about you. You are no longer a priority after you close so beware.

Amazing attention to quality and details. Lots of compassion for me.

Our home buying process from day one was very comfortable, low pressure and detailed, all things we appreciated. Many other builders felt like being in a car dealership and turned us off from building a home. The build process was also very transparent and used high quality and energy efficient core components (like the electrical panel or tankless water heater) that make us comfortable for being in our home for many years. While there were some final issues with finishes, Pulte has been very responsive and helped resolve every item we have had on our list. We would build with pulte again for sure. ... More

Fast and friendly service made this experience a pleasure.

Extremely disappointed in the quality of workmanship. I wasn't expecting this type of experience because of how highly Pulte is recommended and for the price that was paid for the home. Some of the issues were being addressed right away but then everything stopped when I was transferred to a different point of contact. I had to go through the whole process all over again with some items. Other items the different trades had to be scheduled weeks later to see what needs to be done. One of which said it needs to be replaced throughout the entire house because it was installed wrong, but I have to wait to see if that is going to be approved. This whole process shouldn’t be like this. If something is wrong it should be fixed and fixed correctly. ... More

The entire process is seamless. Alicia our Saies partner was unbelievable and so responsive along with our construction Manager Ken. You couldn’t ask for better partners in responding to questions, feedback and overall communication.

The construction area is constantly a mess. There is garbage thrown every where. The workers do not seem to care that there are people who have moved in and it is now a private residence. Even though this was brought to the attention of the Sales office NOTHING is done about it. The warranty department is poor. The knowledge base of the warranty department is extremely poor.
