Reseñas de Pulte Homes

Overall my experience with construction quality and material for cabinets are not upto the mark. Within 3 weeks of moving cabinets moved from wall and created crack in backslash and countertop . There is wide gap due to this. Basement stairs have gap and not attached to wall. Wall paint is coming out with a light touch . Cabinets paint is coming out . We feel not confident even after spending huge amount for the Material quality. Feeling disappointed

Quality of workmanship is very poor, I expected a little better quality for almost a million dollar home. Just moved to new house a month ago and already noticed a lot of issues.

I've purchased three new homes, and my experience with Pulte was the worst compared to Shea and Lennar. The entire process—from loans and communication to workmanship and customer service—was disappointing. Despite my familiarity with home buying and real estate, Pulte failed at every step. Issues remain unresolved, and communication is virtually nonexistent. Receiving the keys felt confusing and lackluster, unlike the special experience new homebuyers should expect. The loan process was frustrating, especially without a rate tracker. The sales team misinformed me about upgrades, and the home walkthrough revealed unfinished work that still hasn't been addressed. Post-closing support was poor: I had to follow up multiple times with escrow and dealt with unhelpful customer care. Vendors sent by Pulte didn’t follow up, and I had to fix my dishwasher myself within the warranty period. Construction made exceptions for neighbors but ignored my needs. While I love my new home, I would not recommend Pulte to anyone. ... Más

workmanship and materials are really bad. It took a lot of effort just to have the poor workmanship repaired. They should finish the list identified in the walk through before closing. After closing it was already hard to have the once identified in the walkthrough to be completed

Production builder…that is all

Pulte only cares about quantity not quality. Our construction manager was absolutely horrible and come to find out he had no prior experience. Our homes quality is completely unacceptable and it was not even cleaned when we came home after closing. It has been problem after problem. The vendors I’ve had to come multiple times just to fix one issue because the communication is either not there or their vendors are just complete garbage and have no idea what they are doing. We have been in for two months now, and there are still things that were supposed to be fixed prior to closing that are not fixed. Almost every single thing has broken at some point since being in here. Very unsatisfied with our experience. ... Más

Information on all home amenities were wrongly explained.

Sales person is mostly hands off and response is sporadic. He did show any accountability and importance of customers. Often his responses mostly short and not friendly. Mortgage: Both the rate lock person and the underwriter are completely worse. Their responses are very bad and often miss-aligned. They don't follow up on the documents' status and updates. Maintenance is a person has just started contacting, and his response is not good. He is

While I will admit there were some that were very helpful including Taylor, Donna, and Gary, the remainder of the experience was very much a struggle and continues to be a struggle after moving in two months later. There was a struggle with the finance and surprises sprung on us the last few days before closing that increased our mortgage by a little over 200 dollars a month to which we had expressed what our budget was. Prior to closing some things were fixed as soon as we pointed them out, after closing, even with the warranty, some things still are not fixed after calls and emails. A person came by; however, I was working. We scheduled a time to return; however, they came at a different time. They called and left a message later and i sent an email and text message back to no avail. I know have another issue that has emerged and am going to contact them; however, not in the greatest of hopes of a timeline of when it will be addressed. ... Más

Issue after Issue, from the heat not working to the doorbell and garage door opener not working. How did the house pass inspections??? I will hire an inspector to find what else is wrong.

We were expecting a more seamless and by far a less frustrated home buying process. From a delayed start of construction date to a delayed closing due to a lower appraisal, we have to rank this process lower than our previous purchase years ago with another seller.

I built two Salerno model homes in 2024, closing on both within six months of each other. If I had known what the quality of workmanship would be, I would not have had Pulte build these two homes even though the location was spectacular. I could write a very long review with the problems but mainly I would have to say poor quality of subcontractors. Paul, the building supervisor who took over for Trevor and Glenn tried his best and cared but had way too much to deal with. If it weren't for Paul I would not have closed on the homes. Short list of issues were: Two roof leaks one home. Unprofessional interior paint jobs with drips of paint spread all over the tile in both homes, including bathtubs. Painting both interiors without vacuuming drywall dust. Surround sound rear speakers in both homes not working. Grout in tile of one home was missing in so many spots. Electrical issues. Drywall issues. Outdoor front yard sprinkler system leaks causing plants to die. Both homes had to hire my own landscaper to fix. Fire Sprinkler heads in ceiling falling off continuously. Gas Stove top in one home working and took three visits to finally fix. A/C duct not hooked up to vent so cool air blowing into the attic of dining/ktichen. ... Más

The houses are overpriced for the quality of materials and workmanship. Every place in the house shows that the construction was rushed. Multiple things damaged which are getting fixed but it just generates a sense of frustration on why these were not addressed before closing - why not get things right in the first place. Issues pointed out by inspectors are often ignored. There is a blatant disregard for the house owners work schedule where some of the third party vendors show up at random times or just keep pushing schedules at will. Pulte installed the sod 1-2 days before closing so that they can save money on the cost to water it. Pulte is just here to maximize profit by overpricing their houses and trying to rush the customer to buy and somehow close the house. I would highly recommend going with a better builder even if you have to initially pay slightly more - not worth the harassment. There is no professional standard here. ... Más

Our experience was less than expected from the financing, title and the HOA with whom Pulte has contracted . There is little to no response on most items. The only people who have been responsive and supportive are James and Tyler from the building team. They are great.

Used car salesmen is what you will get

The quality is not good as I thought

We've had many issues throughout our buying and build journey, happy to discuss more in detail in the phone. Our sales associate and design center consultants did chose some options for us (like our elevation) without telling us and did not explain options available to us, other times they gave just wrong information. They were not forthcoming about pricing. Key steps in the build process were missed, like walking us through an electrical plan. We learned a great deal about what to police for our next build and for now are spending a great deal of time and money correcting things that we could have chosen to have done during the build had we been properly informed- ie we thought we chose a brick house but instead it siding. I wanted to spend money to get my home perfect, I told them money wasn't an issue, show me options - that was not done and now I'm paying significantly more after the fact ... Más

A 2mil house should not have as many issues when going through the walk through. Everything from the walls, inside and outside of the house, requiring patch work, poor installation of cabinets, spotty paint job, dirty walls and carpets, etc.

I recently moved into a new construction home, and unfortunately, my experience has been disappointing due to poor workmanship of the workers contracted by Pulte. From the moment I stepped inside, it was clear that corners were cut. Several walls have noticeable gaps, and the paint job is uneven, with drips and missed spots throughout. These problems indicate a lack of attention to detail during the construction process. Overall, I expected a higher standard of quality from a new build, and I am left feeling dissatisfied and concerned about the long-term durability of my home.

Floor on upstairs had 10 ft long bulge of 2 inch pressing the carpet to cause people to fall over. Floor downstairs, the foundation steel beam is sagging by 1.75 inch. The electrical outlets and switches are installed slanted. Kitchen cabinet is broken and still installed to the wall. The drawer knobs and pulls are not the choices I made on change order which the Pulte charged money. There were rebar sticking out of basement. Basement electrical wiring is exposed and they installed drywall on top of natural gas pipes and squeezed it. Kitchen countertop has 1/4 inch gap between cabinet. The bathroom sinks under mount is not caulked 1/6 inch gap on 6 sinks. Outside second story windows has paint marks and too steep to clean so they didn't clean them. The orange conduit lets rain drip into the electrical panel inside where there is an outlet facing upward at the conduit from outside. Pulte denied responsibility even though they installed it. Internet panel is crooked not installed straight. The pre wired ceiling fan, Pulte put a cheap chandelier which prevented installing a ceiling fan. Garage had crack outside the garage door envelopment. Front door trim came apart. Weather stripping failed on new construction. Windows are installed straight but not light switches. A Door is missing a door stopper. Tiles are not sealed so home owner have to seal them before using the shower after moving in we had to wait three days for shower tile grout sealers to cure and have to be reapplied every month. ...

Worst home buying experience. The quality of workmanship was terrible. When issues were brought to their attention, they tried to fix them, but ultimately it just made them worse. They only care about building the home quickly and don’t really care about the finishes and it looking nice. Once we closed, dealing with service requests is a joke too. Everyone seems to just pass the buck and are really not interested in helping the home buyer. Very disappointed and frustrated buyers.

The contract process was great. Terry in double branch was very informative and communicative and everything was great. Our first construction manager, Sonny, was also great and gave us timely updates. Our second construction manager, Matt, pretty much ghosted us. We were halfway across the county and really looked forward to the updates, but they just stopped. Our third construction manager (That's right we had 3), Justin was much better and sent updates and responded to all questions. However, there was a list of things that needed to be fixed prior to closing, which I was promised was fixed, that after living here for a month, were clearly not fixed. The roof was leaking prior to closing, was told it was fixed. It certainly wasn't. Some of my walls were missing insulation, not fixed until well after closing. Floors were uneven. Still are. I expected some issues with a new build, but there are way too many. Again, beautiful house, too many issues. ... Más

My mom bought a modeled at Winding Meadows in apopka and we received the house not in yhe quality expected. New flooring had paint stain, electrical wiring to the front door has issues, front porch pavers unsteady and coming apart, we contacted the office and the fix the issues. For the past 2 months, we received the water bill almost $350. When we investigated the issue further come to find out we are watering the HOA side of the lawn as well and that has a leak. There’s been issues after issues. It’s making it hard to enjoy this house.

Don't close on a Pulte house if you have ANY outstanding issues! It is impossible to get them resolved after they have your money. We have been waiting 2 months for them to replace sod that was dead when we closed. They won't fix the creaky floor until our one year mark (or if they fix it now, they won't fix any more creaking caused by settling in the future). They claim all the uneven pavers on our lanai are "within tolerance". Ditto for the uneven floor in the kitchen, which had to be leveled by the flooring installers we hired after closing. We should have worried when the wrong second floor materials were delivered AND INSTALLED before anyone noticed (they then had to rip out a whole section and redo it - probably causing the creaking floors now!). There are little things too - both other new home builders we have purchased from provided touch up paint, but not Pulte! The upgraded toilet handles that came when we upgraded faucets are too big for the toilets and are marking up the lids! We thought this was a more luxury builder, but they are not. Be very diligent about checking up on the house during construction and make sure there are no outstanding issues when you close! ... Más

We had one issue after another with our build. We would tell CM something was not correct, their response was on it but it never got changed until we demanded it. Towel bars are not hung straight, don't match on both sides of the sink. Take lots of pictures at your design appointment. Make sure you have correct samples of what you are picking for everything. Get exact names of products, ask the designer is this an accurate sample of what will be installed. If you build with Pulte, I would not do any upgrades with them. They do poor work. Have them build the house, save your money and higher professionals that take pride in their work and do it correctly the first time NOT the fourth. We were so unhappy with our home we put it on the market for the first 15 days after closing hoping someone would buy it. ... Más
