Pulte Homes Reviews

We were very happy that we purchased a new home and Pulte builders were seen decent. But sorry to say other than the Sales team and the field manager none from above them seem to care about anything. I see both of them trying to do everything possible to get things done but Pulte quality and the contractors that they use are very bad. It has been one month since we moved in to the new house and we already feel we should not have got an house from them. Pulte builders in the Trailside community in Indiana have so bad contractors that a lot of visible features are made in very bad quality. to start with the Bathroom tiles are not fixed properly but is all with ups and downs, the grouts would need to be sealed as they cannot spend another $30 to get that done. The countertops have to be sealed too again a $20 bottle. The quality of Paint used is so bad that if you walk and your hand brushes the wall the pants will start decoloring. The worst is the lighting company that they have selected. The Indiana lighting company in greenwood. The light fixtures are all custom made and so if you want to replace a single bulb you will have to go trough then only as none of the stores like Lowes, Home depot carry these are these are not standard. If you call Indiana Lighting the cost of one LED Bulb is about $40+ and these cannot be changed for 5000K brightness or in different colors or even can you have these dimmable. I sent an email to the management team and they did not even care to acknowledge. Seems to be more of a NON CUSTOMER friendly company whose goal is just to build something and have the home owners suffer. I would not recommend Pulte Builders to anyone. ... More

Homebuyers can make sure the builder is very reliable, responds quickly. He is a very kind person and professional. He pays attention to all the details and finishes the construction work asap. You can tell how great work experience he has by seeing around. We found him dealing at his best with all the long lead time of supplies and the labor.

Really good experience. We just move to Katy.

Emotionally draining and Traumatic experience, we have to pay money and then beg for it to completed soon by given dates. Lot of issues after move in ,you can never get hold of customer service on phone . Requests to fix issues ETA of 4-5 months. Do not take keys until all things are taken care .

Compare what's available in your area, seek out trustworthy realtors (and knowledgeable colleagues/friends) to advise you. Comparison shop, but don't be afraid to take action. Homes have real value. Money is losing value every day.

Exceeded my expectations! Thanks Pulte Homes for making this a beautiful home.

Takes way to long to have problems adressed

Post office installed the mail towers and not have mail box in front of each house anymore. Pulte assigned the mailbox far away from my house even there are three mail towers by my house. When I choose the lot, the mailbox location was included under the decision. However, this becomes a problem, pulte construction team, home association, post office, all kicked me here and there. None of them plan to solve the problem. I believe HOA is responsible for this.

The site engineers should make sure the wooden floors properly installed

The homebuying experience with Pulte was great and easy. We got weekly updates and any questions we had while building the home were answered within a day. The sales rep and field manager we had were very attentive to our needs. My best piece of advice would be to visit all of the Pulte neighborhoods in the area and try to price out options in each neighborhood before you decide what you want. This way you get to hear different options from different Sales Reps that you may not have known about otherwise.

This was a very disappointed experience and unfortunately with all my 5 sales/purchase with Pulte. Quality, attention to details, customer service & delivery. All my clients were frustrated & there was NO help from any of the management. Including a very rude response from one of them. I can’t tell how dissatisfied I was as a customer and professional. I would not recommend Pulte.

There was great communication between the sales office and me but their seemed to be a lack of communication elsewhere. There were a few instances where I was told one thing and it was wrong or for some reason it had to be changed. I wished I was aware of those changes before they were put in place. For instance in the design center, I was showed the cabinet garbage holder and was told that’s the one I would get and I got a cheaper version instead. There was also the instance of the whole process of getting an offer accepted and not being able to actually see the lots before the offers had to be put in and signed. This was also with having a limit on the sales appointment. I was mailed the contract very early in the morning and had to sign it before 12pm the same day. ... More

I would want them to stop by my house and see the “finished” house and not the model before they decide to work with Pulte. I would also want them to know the quality is really bad and the experience is just mind blowing.

Bed and solving issues And not getting back to you

Excellent service from sales thru builder

Everyone was very friendly and easy to work with. Much easier than my previous experience with another company. My only complaint would be all the paperwork which is not necessarily Pulte's fault. They have to find a way to streamline that process.

Check in great detail the finishes. I have been in the home for almost a month and are still finding issues with sheetrock, paint, and caulking. There are also some details in the way it was designed that are questionable. Overall the home is nice, probably would of enjoyed the home more if we were not constantly having issues. Our warranty rep is quite responsive and has been a great help and resolving issues.

Communication has not done properly

Inspect every step of the way

As a real estate agent who has worked with Many builders this was the worst build process and worst finished product I have ever sold. The contractors rushed through the work. The quality of the finish is DIY quality at best. My home that was 18 years old had better quality finishes in it than this brand new home. I’m scared to see what other issues will arise the longer we live in the home. It’s a shame the process and product were so horrible because we love the floor plan and our home.

The home buying experience was great - but now that I’m in my new home- huge disappointment- light fixtures have detached from ceiling and I haven’t gotten a response from Warranty people in a week— worse yet roaches were in my residence after carpet was placed- I thought issue would be resolved—- I have an infestation- probably due to a dumpster overflowing with trash next door that has been a hazard for over a month— HELP!

Tony, Billy and Daniel provided great service throughout the process and I would like to say thank you. I am also pleased with the final product.

The experience of buying, construction, and closing on our new home was seem less!

It was a great experience! We love our new Pulte home!!

From the sales person to the foreman was exceptional. The builders word was everything especially when the house is ready on time to move in. The floor plan for my model was exceptional, the design had the openness that we loved so much along with the master bedroom and bathroom . Location of the homes in Florence are the best love the space and the views of the mountains. From start to finish Pulte nailed it!
