Reseñas de Pulte Homes

We chose Pulte because of name recognition for quality homes. Unfortunately we are not impressed by what we received and there are still issues with our home. I would definitely have to think twice if I were ever to buy from Pulte again.

While we love the house and the neighborhood, the process of getting here was terrible and we will never go through Pulte again. You have to stay on top of them on every little thing and not trust them to do what they say. Get everything in writing, check every option you pick for your home, follow up on the price of everything because they will get so much wrong and will try to overcharge every chance they get. Be aware that their mortgage options through Pulte are very invasive and will require more financial paperwork and hoops to jump through than a regular bank will, although the extra money off the price of the house can be a nice incentive. Be prepared to stay on top of your project manager while the house is being built as well to ensure work is being completed correctly. Our project manager made the process very stressful as he tried to get out of redoing work his team did incorrectly and when he was rated poorly on the Pulte survey, he sent us an angry text afterwards about his survey score even though it was a very negative experience with him and the survey results reflected that. All that said, we've had to use the Pulte warranty on a few things (because of our terrible project manager) and the warranty team has been very responsive and helpful. Overall, the end product is great but we would never go through a building process like this again. ... Más

Be cautious before signing contract. You will be locked once signed and no way you can negotiate or request of changes. Zero flexibility on minor customizations to home or options. Quality control is not good and often buyers find most issues before closing.

No comment too many hard points i cant tell

Pulte pushes using their mortgage company, but they do not know what they are doing and do not communicate well. We waited for 4 months for a decision only to be rejected and told I had three weeks to get a full mortgage commitment or the entire deal would be voided. I had two mortgage approvals within two weeks. Building process was slow (6 months) with little to no communication until the end of the process. Multiple homes were started after ours and delivered weeks before. Even after 6 month build time, there are multiple outdoor items which need completed more than a month after closing. Overall the value was there due to an increasing market, but the length of transaction (10 months from signature to closing + 1 month later still waiting for landscaping and grass) and the lack of communication would make me hesitate to ever recommend building with Pulte ...

If you are using your own title company the experience will be very taxing. The closing coordinator for Pulte was a nightmare. I received 5 different closing dates which made me jump through hoops on my end and not one phone call or email was returned by the senior closing coordinator. It was stressful. I was also promised a faucet upgrade and was told it was ordered and that never happened.

Sales experience started off good however mistakes are made on Pulte’s sales staff part. The way it was handled it was unfortunately very displeasing and unprofessional. There so cold “IN-house” Pulte Mortgage team was very condescending, Contradictory & Arrogant in their delivery of messages, Almost as though you are wasting their time or bothering them! The only bright light was the builder who tried to do his best in his Construction crew making structural mistakes however eventually most issues, got handled.

Make sure you have a good field manager, basically the General Contractor of the build, that has good communication skills. Ours, no longer with the company, only wanted to communicate through phone calls, didn't reply to emails, deflected responsibility, and gave false timelines. We had our "celebration walk" when the home still didn't have water, pass inspections, and receive certificate of occupancy. Told us the closing date had to be pushed out the day after he told us we were "good" to close.

Site manager didn’t provide any photos of the house during the build process. Was “extra” helpful when we signed for the house because of a survey. Gave him a bad survey, so he quit taking our calls, emails, and text messages. If it wasn’t for the site manager, I would rate Pulte much, much higher!

We’ve had plumbing issues multiple times. One plumber found paint inside the toilet tank clogging it. The paint inside the home rubs off if you attempt to clean anything off of it. Everything that touches the wall leaves a mark or rips the paint off. We have multiple chipped tiles and it occurred within the first 1-2 months of closing. Roxanne, the sales agent was very unprofessional when we had an issue about a stair-railing selection. Pulte was very prompt in following up with these issues once reported. Our home cost in the upper 300’s, we expected a little more.

I am ADA in a wheelchair and the rolling issues were emailed out; 1.Unfinished under sinks 2.Counter height at 34-36" not 30" 3.Narrow throughway between kitchen island and counter Non-ADA 1.2 Door bowed 2.Gap undeR door into garage 3.Rust from grab bars installed in shower 4.Landscaping is not good - coverage of pool/lanai and tree in front is dying 5.Aaragon - not helpful 6.Garage floor not cleaned left cement small piles 7.Painting touch ups 8.Wall are in kitchen uneven - bar area at 15" on left side and 17" on right - why? Not sure how we put in a bar top later John has been very helpful but overall this isa brand new home that we were prepared to pay extra for added on features (ADA) Generally people were very nice to talk with not sure where the breakdown is though. ...

Below average support by sales staff partly arising from sellers market. They interact with you as if they are doing you a favor. Stress during closing process was horrible

We were promised by Pulte that the open issues before closing are already managed by the time we were closing. We couldn’t verify it with the pandemic but it was all lies. Now it’s been 2 months and we still haven’t gotten what they already said is done, to be even looked at.

The field manager is great! He was the trustworthy one, responsive to our issues, professional and kind one throughout the process. The overall experience was over shadowed by the Pulte Mortgage process. Our two reps really lacked communication or timely response. We have found now that we have moved in that there are some strange items. Electrical trips often, one outlet will blow the whole room no matter what we try. Ceiling air vent cover falls bc the hole was cut too large, we fixed it. I haven't been able to use the new dishwasher bc it has been broken since the first time of use. We have been in our house for six weeks. We registered all of the appliances, but apparently this is the process. The threshold in one doorway is a different color than the next doorway over (of course we didn't catch it at the walk through, too excited). With that said, the house is a great value. The building part of the process was overall a good experience and fun. We are proud of our new home. We just feel as a new build, some of the little things should not exist. Again, Chris our field manager, super timely and honest to work with throughout this process. He deserves 5 stars. ... Más

Still waiting pulte to solve all the issues that we found after closing

Would not purchase from Pulte again. Communication and transparency are lacking.

We were offered a $5,000 discount if we signed papers by a certain date. We did, and later were told that we didn't (even though we have text messages to prove it). Also, we were overcharged on our final payment to the title company ($700+) and were told we would get a refund from Pulte. Never did, and follow up has been ignored. Maybe others are okay with writing off $5,700+ but we are not, and are extremely upset with the promises made and the lack of follow up with management.

Be very careful. The home overall is spacious and planned well but the lack of care to the details makes this a new home filled with fixes. Slow down and really go through the house prior to the final walk though! For example, our master shower leaks water onto the floor, the standard size fridge space was measured/built incorrectly so that it did not fit a fridge, the fuse box was labeled wrong. Those are just the highlights.

My project manager had way too many homes. It was evident in the responsiveness and ability to keep up with issues. There were a few hiccups along the way that I had to stay on top off, but the painters are a disaster. It was ridiculous what was missed and how many times they had to come back. By the time we closed, I basically just gave up. I’m also disappointed that the ceiling/attic isn’t strong enough to support any storage. I would like to attach some indoor gym equipment for kids to the walls and ceiling, but Im scared the roof would fall down..even though I was able to put something similar in my last house without issues. I don’t regret buying the house, but I’m left feeling disappointed. ... Más

the qualitiey of the sink is poor,

From start to finish alot of errors where made. Talked to other owners in area and it seem the options offered to some owners wher not offered to others. There is not a paint and lighting options

I have been in my home for approximately 3 months. There are greatly noticeable cracks and nail pops throughout the house that were visible prior to moving in. Drywall spackle on mirrors, countertops, walls, and doors I cleaned after closing on the house. The conduit outside the house for the fiber optic line was cut and covered over with concrete making it very difficult for the technician to run the line. I had to cut sections of drywall and then conduit behind the wall in the garage to keep the line from catching on very tight turns. Here my list of issues and concerns - kitchen cabinets and drawers not properly fitting or closing, Ethernet cables not properly run, squeaky subfloor under the hardwood planks. I can continue to list faults. Pulte you are welcome to contact me. ... Más

I have had nothing but issues, then with the virus nothing getting repaired, once I HAD to give a good review nothing got fixed.

Muchos problemas con la casa con la mano de obra y la calidad. No podría recomendar Pulte solo con la cantidad de problemas que hemos tenido con ellos. Hicieron todo lo posible para mejorar todo, pero eso solo alivia un poco el dolor. La casa era un completo lío el día del cierre. El paisajismo no estaba de moda. La alfombra en toda la casa tuvo que ser reemplazada un par de semanas después de la mudanza. Tuvimos que regañar continuamente a los constructores para que arreglaran las cosas que no estaban bien. Entonces sería "arreglado" y tendríamos que hacer las cosas "arregladas" nuevamente. La segunda vez que construí una casa fue una pesadilla. Honestamente, culparía de la mayor parte de esto a los contratistas de Plute y a ellos que se apresuran a hacer el trabajo debido a la cantidad de trabajo. Pero Pulte realmente necesita encontrar nuevos contratistas o hacer un mejor trabajo de inspección y hacer que vengan a arreglar su trabajo en lugar de hacer que el cliente inspeccione y le diga a Pulte que el trabajo no se hizo correctamente. Cuando todo esté dicho y hecho, volvería y elegiría un constructor diferente. Si no fuera por el representante de ventas Molly y el gerente de construcción Daniel, hubiéramos tirado la toalla. ...

La calidad del material podría haber sido mucho mejor por el precio pagado.
