Reseñas de Pulte Homes

I’m really hoping that Some one from Pulte Management will contact me after reading below feedback. I have a very BAD experience with Pulte. I think by selecting Pulte over of other builders in the market I have made a BIG mistake of my life. No one hears my issues/concerns. I was given unfinished home at the time of closing. My backyard was handed over with unfinished work. They did not even did seeding and proper landscaping to my backyard land which I own. For all other neighbors in same neighborhood they did seeding properly, They did not even know about my backyard land which I own. They don’t even able to establish my boundaries. I was promised by my Sales Consultant (Michael) and field manager (Jen) that my backyard will be fixed. I have done several follow ups with them after my closing but no luck so far. Work is not done yet. Another example of my dissatisfaction is that they did not installed window shutters which was expected and promised as per my elevation design of my house which I picked at the time of buying this house. I have noticed this miss after closing of my house and immediately informed my Sales consultant and Field Manager. My Field manager told me that she has submitted a request to get the window shutters but when I asked by when she will able to get this work done, She said that she doesn’t know and can’t give the ETA. This is ridiculous. This is very Unprofessional behavior from Pulte. If I had not noticed the missing window shutter no one from Pulte team would have told us about this. I don’t know how many other things they have missed in my house during construction which I’m not even aware of. There are few other issues which I had reported to my field manager and Sales Consultant which are unaddressed yet. I’m really hoping that someone from Pulte Management will reach out to me after reading my feedback and help me to fix my issues and help me in regaining my trust ok Pulte again. ... Más

Bad experience from beginning ,and especially at closing.

Good morning, it is very difficult to get anything done. I have been in cassia since 5/26/2022. I still have items that are pending to fix. I still do not have internet connection, Pulte is not helping me to solve the problem. Please help me resolve these problems.

My parents bought a pulte home on 2006, man did this builder go down the tubes. From my "closing" to current day this house has been a nightmare. Construction manager ian has tried his best but his team has failed him every step. Bad woring , wrong doors in the house , stuck sliding doors, missing sheet rock, 4 nails in my cars tires because of no clean up, glass in my foot! Recently the walk in closet shelf collapsed and fell on my fiancée! The list still goes on! The quality of this house is a joke! The standards this company has is little to none!

Pulte promises quality, but does NOT deliver!!!

I would have answered the 15 question build questions completely differently after I moved in if I had uncovered all the problems with my house. The ONLY thing that went well was the title company for this all cash purchase. My punch list is over 20 items long and no one provides updates on anything. The completely wrong counter/sink/mirror/light bar configuration was installed in my master bath. The data panel/closet in the garage has an electrical outlet that is not connect to anything and the other bathroom has a light fixture was not installed and is sitting on the toilet tank. Those are just three of my issues, but the quality of the build is very crappy. The sales personnel, although very personable, don't know details on what they're selling and the construction manager doesn't know the housing development. Construction manager said don't say there are unfinished items in the 15 question survey after closing because people have lost their jobs over this. You need a real ticketing system for service orders with one ticket per service issue. Then you need to provide regular updates rather than communicate either via email or not at all. As it is, service issues seem to fall into a black hole. ... Más

Don’t buy a Pulte home, that’s what I would say to other buyers. Though we worked with some good people, the company as a whole is terrible. They know you can’t afford to walk because of the now much higher prices, and they clearly take advantage of that. Have an issue, tough? We’ll get to it when we get to it. Regardless of how long that may be. They see no reason not to sell a house, even though they don’t have enough people to build them, or enough people to repair them when they are complete. Our inside joke is, what’s not crooked?! We’re now dealing with the hassle of redoing all of our floors, since it would have cost $35000 more to go through their design center. And they don’t have the expense of tearing everything else. It took over a year to build this house, but 3 days before closing, Pulte mortgage was still requesting paperwork. A year not long enough? So please, shop elsewhere.! ... Más

What can I not say? Here's a list of everything that went wrong: 1. No communication at all 2. Never told me during the whole process why my home was really delayed for almost 6 months! Interest rates went up, never locked in a rate early because I was told that it would finish next month, next month, next month. and soon December 2021 became May 2022. Pulte didn't care, they just wanted to get the money 3. Workers smoking and eating inside the home 4. No security, hence things were stolen from the home, which then delayed the home 5. Always said that everything has been ordered and they have it in storage, but I am still missing things in the house and I closed two months ago 6. After closing, noticed the dry wall was crooked in multiple areas, hardwood floor was creaking, and paint was not done well. 7. For how much I paid for this house, it was definitely not build to standard or to my expectations 8. I am still finding things that were done poorly. It seems that this home was hurried to be completed, even when they had an "extra" 5 months to complete it Overall, terrible experience and will not recommend Pulte ... Más

Was a nightmare with the realtor and the constructor , both doesnot have responsability, care, worst treatment we can imagine, I know the is not a Pulte im blaming for the constuction side and realtor, but you have to select better who will works for your company, you have a name that you have take care , The house was delivered with a lot of things to need to be fix , they did not clenned after construction , the material I cant choose the color or the floor. Bad comunication with constructor .

All started well with the sales but after construction started seems to be when it started to fall apart. When I can tell there are glaring issues w/the quality of work (I don’t have a construction background) & bring it to their attention & it’s repeatedly ignored or we are told it’s fixed when clearly it isn’t we should have known it wouldn’t get better. Clearly crooked framing of windows, stairs that are uneven & poor materials used, extreme use of caulking used around light switches (which is a no-no), poorly mixed grout, all around sloppiness & such a lack of concern that this will be someone’s home. ...

Bad experience all the way around. Paint the shipping from the door garage door is not working light bulb was wrong sink was wrong chipped everywhere on the deck

They gave me an unfinished house. After multiple follow-ups they send someone to finish up some paint work, and he leaves it half finished. The quality of such expensive houses is very questionable with mesh door not getting locked, and flimsy pull out drawers in the kitchen.

I was very disappointed with the way the house was turned over to me after closing dozens of things were not repaired or fixed and the house was in disarray unacceptable for a higher and builder.

house quality as good as we expected. very roughly material. and after closing , customer service reaction too slow to fix rest home issue.

This was the worse experience we ever had building a home. We have built 3 other homes in the Charleston area and this was awful right from the mortgage company on. The workmanship is horrendous!!! They rushed building our home and right from the sod, bushes and trees on into the house it is cheap, poorly done, and still not completed after 2 months of our living here!! Even the appliances were wrong! I would never recommend a Pulte home to anyone and would discourage anyone from building with Pulte.I

Bad quality of sales, delivery - no respect for timelines, quality of build

House seems like it was rushed a lot of issues since being in house 1 month need to take a little more time to have more quality of work

When I started the process and throughout, working with Alex our salesperson was how you would expect from a National builder. He has been the only pleasant part of this experience. Our salesperson tried but could not handle the tasks of a construction manager and we closed on a home that was subpar at most. We were promised Tony our customer service rep would help us rectify the items not corrected. This has been the worst experience in the entire process. His arrogance and failure to understand how to speak to customers is worse than the actual items that were never addressed. Basic home security. My front door is not safe or straight. This was built wrong and needs to be redone! The items from the original punch list from a few months ago are STILL not done. The amount of days taken off work required to wait for workers to show up and still have no idea why they are there is mind boggling. Huge huge disappointment. Damaged tiles, damaged windows, a garage that is filthy and doesn't get cleaned because it was never finished. It goes on and on. Pulte / Divosta should consider addressing these items, especially the service, before customers take legal action. ... Más

They are building so fast they don't have time for any issues that come up. We waited a month for an electrical issue to be fixed, never have received touch up paint, yard wasn't inspected after freeze during winter for plants/grass that died. Paid top dollar for a house that is mediocre at best.

Awful. It is a new home with countless issues that keep on coming. Everything from broken plumbing, to flickering lights, to poor craftsmanship, The biggest regret of my life was buying a pulte home.

Pulte over promises, and under delivers. Quality of workmanship is very poor.

No other way to say it. This has been an extremely disappointing and regrettable process. What started as my family building our dream home quickly turned into the most stressful time of our lives. And no one at Pulte seemed to care. The process started ok, Aiyana in sales was very up front about what was included and provided the quotes with upgrades we knew we wanted as well as upgrades we were considering so we could budget accordingly. There were a few surprises when we went to sign and just after we signed about changes that needed to be made to fit code. The big one being that we were told after we signed that we needed to add a second water heater or go tankless due to code. This seems like it should have some sort of warning built into the program to notify sales and the customer at the time of selecting an upgrade if there is an additional change required. We have more bathrooms than we need because we want the space for guests. Seems strange that having enough hot water is a code issue, but also that we learned of it after signing. But at this time, we were so set on having the on suite for the bedroom upstairs that we didn't want to remove it. So, we reluctantly decided to remove another upgrade because of wanting to stay in budget and having to add the tankless water heater. We are disappointed because we would have much rather the bay window and it was spun to us that Pulte was doing us a favor for waiving the fee to remove the bay window. I am in construction and customer service. The proper play here would have been to upgrade the single water heater to accommodate or supply the second one for free. Forcing us to pay for an upgrade after agreeing to the price was not right. The next major disappointment came when we went to pick out finishes and the cabinet color we wanted was no longer available requiring us to upgrade all cabinets to get a color we didn't hate. I understand colors come and go, but to only have one color option in level 1 cabinets when brochures showed 3, is unacceptable. We are not over the top people but in our $400k house we wanted something more than the blah oak that you see in a rental property. And being a builder suppling houses at $300k+ you should have more than one option included. Things continued to go down hill from here. Framing was ok, myself and my inspector had to point out multiple spots of damaged trusses and damaged studs that were obvious if someone took the time to walk it. Aaron was the site manager for the framing stage, I don’t know if I ever met him. Just gave me updates when it was convenient for him or when I asked. Then started the finishing stages. I met Steven on site to talk through the next part of the process. Standing in my kitchen he gave me the flyer of the process and promised things would be better and more communication and this would be a great experience… all lies. Decent communication happened for a couple weeks then it stopped. I understand no one wants to give news that materials are delayed, I’m in the industry, I get it. But instead of telling me the truth, again, it was all lies. Things were slow and not good craftsmanship. There was a long delay in finishing the exterior brick of my house. Was told it was due to materials shortage, problem is the brick was sitting in the front yard, where it had been for weeks. Then was told it was a labor shortage, even though my realtor and I both witnessed multiple crews working on houses on my street that were not as far along as mine. Finally found out that two subs were arguing over location of the overhang above the garage… After finally getting a closing date and putting in my 60-day notice at my rental, allowing me to have a month overlap for moving, most work stopped. My house had too many items to count still outstanding but multiple Pulte people told me we would still close in two weeks. I kept getting the “you’d be surprised at how much can get done in a week”.. problem was to get items done crews had to be at the house. Turns out to get a driveway poured you need a permit, and that permit takes 4-6 weeks so you cant pull the permit the week of closing… someone messed up. So we obviously didn’t close that week, so closing was bumped a week, again we didn’t make that either still no permit to pour the driveway. Yes there were many other outstanding items but it seemed that trades would go to other houses because with no driveway they knew the house was not going to close. So closing was bumped another 3 weeks to the end of the month. Pulte ensured me that we would close. Items still were not to my satisfaction and still items to do but I reluctantly close on Thursday April 28th , with the guarantee from Pulte that all items would be completed by Friday April 29. As you can guess by now that did not happen. Many items were not finished so members of crews and Pulte continued to come in and out for weeks. Forcing me to take time off work or work out of the office so someone could be present at the house. Finally got Ryan involved who walked the house and took some notes and again promised items would be finished. But made a lot of backhanded comments about making sure I had the warranty contact info… Again, why am I having to do a warranty claim for original scope? Here we are a week and a half later and some of the items are still untouched. I paid extra for bottom trim on my cabinets, that still has not been installed. The premium crown that I had installed is cracked from nail pressure too high. Most of these items are things that Pulte should have seen, or if there was a good relationship with the subs, they would not let bad quality go. The leash is too long for some of these subs. If Pulte did a better quality check and made them go back and fix items with no additional compensation, they would do better on future homes. They know they can skate by and do it to take advantage of Pulte and the homeowner. You ask for something to be fixed and ... Más

I regret why I signed the closure documents, trusting the people they would resolve later on. I have been told that people would come over but nobody turned up since the time of closure.I still see that few of the works couldn't be completed before closure.These issues have been there since closure and delay. 1) Carpet Issue-I have few nails popped out and kids were injured too.Can you please send someone to tuck in the nails? It is really causing issues while we walk on stairs and afraid that if any guests would hurt themselves. 2)Painting-During the closing walk through,Jen promised that painting would be done at a few places which are still pending and drywall guys couldn't understand,it is not fixed till date. 3) Kitchen drawers Soft closure- During the closure walk through, we informed Jen on this concern.Few of the kitchen drawers are not soft closure which need to be fixed. 4) Window-The downstairs bedroom window doesn't have mosquito net.I think there was a shortage during closure which was told will be fixed once stock is fulfilled? 5) Cement Plot- The cement lot was misplaced at the backyard door during construction.It needs to be placed at the right position in the backyard door,During the construction(Jen/Jodee knows the issue). I would like to replace the rusted pipe with new ones.I do not want to pay for rusted pipes and wrong placed concrete.I paid extra for soft closures and did take upgrades too even though I haven't got fully finished house.Before closure I suppose pulte does deep cleaning when I see my house still has dusty windows spiders all over. Iam sure you didn't charge me for spiders. ... Más

Sales rep was not forthcoming and not up to date with information. It was obvious he was being cautious with what he communicated. Customer Care seemed more about ensuring that issues were addressed and closed as quickly as possible rather than focusing on customer satisfaction. Rep was not helpful and challenging to work with/communicate with.

Everything was a lie the price on the value of the home is off $262,000 you made extra in profit the work and ship was poor had nothing but problem since I moved in over 34 of them and they’re still not solved
