Reseñas de Pulte Homes

I am very disappointed and dissatisfied with the entire process with Pulte. The home was built in poor condition. I had to submit many warranty claims. They are responsive but considering i have only been in my house a month its horrible. At closing i was given keys that didn't work. I couldn't sleep in my room for the first week due to issues that weren't taken care of. Overall if you decide to go with Pulte please inspect and follow through. If i had to do it again i would not purchase with Pulte.

My wife and I were initially very excited to buy from Pulte, as on the surface, it looked like a great operation and a great value. Now that we have been Pulte homeowners for two months, that has changed to dread. We found that it was necessary to constantly complain about every little detail to have any hope of quality in the home. The painting and drywalling is atrocious, and we are on our 3rd round of repairs/paint on that. The grout work for the tile is filled with holes. When we moved in, the movers couldn't believe it was a new house because they were finding so many defects in walls/floors/doors on their house survey BEFORE moving anything inside. We had to have our floors professionally cleaned prior to moving in because they were unable to remove all the dirt/mud they had brought inside on their boots. As for appliances, they installed a dented microwave and a broken oven (door was bent). Nothing was leveled (doors, fixtures, wall switches). They refuse to properly protect the house from water runoff. The gutters essentially dig holes at the side of the house, and despite listing this issue prior to closing, they simply filled in the hole and then said it was not part of their warranty. Overall, I wish I had used a different builder as I feel like my brand-new house was not built well and the interior certainly doesn't feel new with all the paint, trim, and drywall defects. ... Más

The prop was was good in overall but don’t. Triste them if they say that they’re going to take care of any situation that it’s not good and they take you till the signing day, after that they will leave you with the issue and never answer or take care!!!! We have a big issue with our Ac unit, they promised to take care after the signing day, we was making following to the situation since 3 weeks before to the closing day. They never repaired before and they promised take care of it after the closing and they didn’t and never answer again!. Extremely hard to communicate with them, well imposible because stil we’re trying to contact somebody to follow up and it’s not possible. ... Más

One would not want to buy a new home only to see rain water coming in, uneven floors, cranky garage doors, trash provision missing, appliances not working, etc. Unfortunately, this has been our experience. Raising concerns have not helped either - our point of contact for construction (at the time of closure) verbally assured us these would be taken care of but after about 4 weeks simply came back to say he/she has taken care of all issues without doing anything. I believe one would be better off using their money for other options - my acquaintances who went for other communities close by have been sharing much better experience. ... Más

We have encountered numerous issues with our experience, which has been disappointing. While there has been some response to basic warranty items, other promises remain unfulfilled. Some of the repair work is just not satisfactory. There is no quality assurance being done. We have been occasionally lied to leading to frustration and a lack of confidence in you. Although we remain hopeful that things will improve, at this time, we are not satisfied with the current state of affairs. We sincerely hope that these outstanding issues will be addressed promptly and that future interactions will meet the expectations that were initially set. ... Más

was hoping for better quality home and a better response for issues reported but a mediocre response

Entire home appears to have been finished as quickly as possible, with countless interior areas overlooked. Required tons of manual cleanup and touchup afterwards, as Pulte is essentially impossible to get ahold of after closing. Even if you get in touch with them (after several repeated emails), they become unresponsive again and do not address any issues. The other many negative reviews on this site are true. Drywall work was far from perfect, with plenty of visible seams and poorly covered-up mistakes. Windows were scratched and cracked. Cabinets had countless dents and holes. Doors were dinged, dented, and cracked. Buyer beware! ... Más

Incorrect wiring, voltage fluctuations, unclean flooring (with paint stains everywhere), bad paint job (revealing drywall), and uneven walls. This is our second home with Pulte, and the quality has significantly deteriorated.

I have not received a prompt response from anyone at Pulte except from the construction manager. Below are some issues I have faced and still facing. 1. I am writing to express my frustration regarding an issue with my mailbox setup that has not been resolved since my closing date on June 4, 2024. During the closing, I was provided with mailbox keys; however, the mailbox was not properly set up, and I have been unable to access it using the keys provided. Subsequently, the mailbox was changed, but I am still not receiving any mail from USPS. I have contacted both the builder and USPS to resolve this issue. USPS has informed me that the builder is responsible for labeling the mailboxes and setting up the master keys for USPS access. In contrast, the builder has indicated that they have completed the mailbox setup and that I need to follow up with USPS. As a result, USPS personnel have been coming to deliver mail but leaving without doing so because the mailboxes lack proper labeling and master keys. I am currently having to visit USPS in person to collect my mail, and I am uncertain when this issue will be resolved. This situation is causing significant inconvenience. 2. The Pulte assured me that lawn care would be covered under the HOA services, with payments collected through December 31, 2024, as part of the closing process. Despite my numerous follow-ups, the lawn care service only began on August 8, 2024, rather than the promised start date of June 4, 2024. It appears that the builder either failed to notify the HOA manager in a timely manner to start the service, leading to this unacceptable delay. 3. The green grass mats have not been laid out properly, leaving numerous gaps and uneven areas scattered across the yard. Additionally, the ground is uneven, with noticeable height variations and dips throughout. Despite reporting these issues to the construction manager, only some of the gaps have been addressed, and many problems remain unresolved. I also reported the situation to the construction team, and while a representative came to assess the issue, he promised to follow up with a solution. However, I have yet to receive any further response or action. This lack of resolution is unacceptable and has caused significant frustration. 4. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with how the issue of including my wife on the property title was handled. When I began the process of contracting and securing the loan, I was informed that my wife's name was not required on the initial documents in order to later add her to the title. Based on this information, I proceeded with the process as advised. However, on the closing date, the attorney informed us that they had not received the necessary documents from Pulte to add my wife's name to the title. Despite the attorney reaching out to Pulte to address this, Pulte stated that they could not resend the documents with my wife’s name included. As a result, we had to proceed with a deed instead of having her directly added to the title as originally planned. This situation has caused significant inconvenience and frustration, as it was not handled according to our expectations and the initial guidance we received. I am disappointed with the lack of follow-through and the final outcome, which does not align with the original plan. ... Más

Our neighborhood has experienced so many issues. The only thing I can say good is location - close to everything. Everything else has truly been a nightmare. I don’t know if I’ve met a neighbor who had a good building experience. It seems they hire workers who don’t care about the work they do and then they have no quality controls in place to make sure work is being done correctly. And these are expensive houses! I would never build with Pulte again after my experience.

No sense of urgency to resolve issues raised. Closing was delayed as a result. Walk through items never followed up on. When walking with the CM to close items, majority of items not compete and evident the CM was not following up to ensure complete. Pulte sales agent did not honor items in contract and threatened to go to litigation over a small issue. Rather than honoring purchase agreement, a credit was provided and I had to perform work after closing.

We've experienced numerous issues with our new home. These should have been found and fixed before we moved in if Pulte would have done quality control. Our front porch is permanently stained in multiple places by some form of an oil based liquid. Pulte refuses to replace our porch, they tried to power wash it out and that has only make it worse. It's going on two months now and they still have not resolved the problem. How would you like to spend half a million dollars on a home and the first thing everyone sees before they enter your home is your whole front porch completely stained. Now that certainly doesn't appear to be high quality or expert craftsmanship. Next we experienced our front bedroom flooding with sewage from the clean out drain. This was because first someone stuffed a 2 foot 2×4 and a wooden plug into the clean out. Unfortunately the plumber did not glue the cap screw sleeve and didn't secure the cap. Had the workmanship been even average we would still had had the backup do to the items in the clean out pipe but at least it wouldn't have flood into the room and ruin the padding and carpet. All of are windows can not be opened without extreme physical effort. We are still waiting on someone to come make the required adjustments. We have also had a significant amount of settlement under our back patio. Again we have been waiting for more than a month for someone to come and access and fix the issue. We fear there will be additional structural damage done if this doesn't get addressed soon. They have dropped a part of the roof frame from the next door house on our roof and damage our roof shingles, gutter, and tree we had just planted. ... Más

The quality shown in the model homes was not what we received in our new home . From the hvac to cabinets that we paid extra for , to the electricity . Just overall would not recommend Pulte to anyone .

Everything is of a very cheap quality. Customer service is slow and non responsive.

The building quality is not very good. We had issues from day one.

My himeboying experince in the initial phases with Ed was great! However I was urged by neighbors not to sign closing until all repairs are made. I wish I would have listened. It’s been five weeks since I moved in and a lot of my major issues which were all cosmetic in nature have not been addressed. Pulte was happy to take my money, but has been very slow in making the cosmetic repairs in my home. I would give my overall experience 2 stars

The paint job in many areas of the house is terrible, leaving the surfaces unfinished and unattractive. The microwave was not installed correctly from the start. The construction team failed to ensure proper installation and oversight of the house build. I have tried multiple times to report the microwave issue, but no single department wants to take responsibility, and they keep redirecting me between departments. The microwave issue has still not been resolved for almost a month.

Finishing is terrible, be it out doors or indoors.

I am still struggling to get done my home fixed after 40 days of closing.. never get positive response for all issues..

I did not expect this, last new home bought was in 2017. Then and now the differences, the sales office is rude, the first question is what is ur budget? Do u have an appointment (no hi no hello, no greeting). The dry wall contractor and framing contractor and the landscaping sub contractors have done a very poor job and have taken the joy out of new house. The dry wall who ever did it need to learn basics. At the corners you can see the bend and non straight lines through out the house. The roof has bumps in the living room, I'm seeing new bumps in ceiling in garage. Customer care rep is trying to do few things, but looks like she is new to the job. Sometimes ignores my experience especially when it comes to landscaping. I've lost trust and recording every conversation with sub contractors. We did get walk throughs at different stages that is the only thing same. ... Más

This is our third Pulte home and by far the worst workmanship. Work orders are not addressed in a timely manner. The trades do not protect floors, walls, etc while doing work. I have submitted several items to the portal and it takes weeks to get a response after I follow-up.

Where I have so much issue with sales person , design studio . They did not explain and go through me lots of the stuff . I feel I been loot spend over and extra money where i shouldn’t have to spend . After construction time my most of the dry walls are broken I have lots of pictures and I put in a Facebook tag pulte as well then Joe regional manage involved by the time he come and I showed him my dry wall done with mud and stuff so I can’t show him I am definitely sure those broken drywall’s never replaced. Also after closing my driveway just completely, garden just completed and they put the pipe from the roof to going to drain it’s keep flooding I report to the contractor and he said it’s normal . I hire another contractor and he told me it’s is not normal they has to come and fix otherwise those water goes to the basement . Also when I open a garage my my garage door to home enterance door open it is not fix properly. Also bed room lock after painter came and he took off never lock . In garage all 3 side have big gap start between the wall and garage sides . Also beside of my house there is a big gap start as well . I am putting this all the pictures in Facebook please review and let me know after spending tons of money not a good work and let me know my complaint is legit or not . Thanks ... Más

We were very excited to move into our Pulte Home. We paid a huge premium for our lot which has a lot of natural shrubbery and is a pretty big size. We were told that the lot would be cleaned up prior to move in. Fast forward 2 months after move in, there is still trash, leftover construction materials, a fallen tree trunk, etc on our lot. The lack of care and clean up is holding us back from being able to install a fence and enjoy the lot that we paid for. The house itself is nice, a few minor issues with one of the stovetops not working correctly and not getting the full amount of ship lap that we paid for. ... Más

We paid alot for the home but didn't get the quality we expected. From plumbing leaks in ceiling to basement walls leaking. Some of these issues are still not fixed. The delay in these issues getting fixed is causing me a hardship in dealing with cleaning up after repeated leaks and therefore leaving this review.

Paint finish quality is horrible. Peeling and chipping paint on walls and doors already. Drywall feels very weak (crumbles when you put basic drywall screws in to mount anything). I was promised at closing that remaining items on punchlist would be taken care of ASAP after I signed. It has been well over a month and we are still waiting on things to be done. I had to go chasing after them for a lot of things. Took multiple calls and messages before any movement on tasks.
