Reseñas de Pulte Homes

Pulte was not good on communicating throughout home building process. Although there were issues with delivery of items. Delays or missing items were never recieved. Because of the delays i had additional unexpected costs.

Was very disappointed with the quality of construction. Warranty calls for walls and ceilings to be level within a quarter inch within 4 feet and many of them are beyond that threshold. Had to modify installations of appliances at our cost due to the fact the ceilings are way off level. Many walls are also bowed , not straight within the Warrenty threshold. Way too much covering up things and hoping this customer would be satisfied. The correct way would’ve been to deliver the house the way the warranty says “free of defects” Seeking legal advice on how these defects can be corrected in the safest, cleanest manner without causing more issues to the structure & personal health. Pulte’s big selling feature is their quality and it is mentioned numerous times in the sales And construction process. Our expectation was to get the house that we paid for based on Pulte’s warranty and this expectation was not met by Pulte. ... Más

Plan on spending some time and money fixing all the things that are delivered just "good enough" by Pulte - floors went in first and weren't protected, gaps around outlets and switches, one coat of paint that is paper thin, and overall such a disappointment. Wouldn't recommend Pulte to anyone. Focus is on selling homes as fast as possible - no one cares about quality of product.

Closing date was constantly pushed back. Issues before and after move in have not been completed. Very stressful and upsetting experience. Not one issue has been fixed. These issues are still in progress ( almost all cabinet doors and draws need to be replaced, front door crack needs to be replaced, 5 trees fallen over need to be replaced, land water issue----that's just a few)

We were rushed to closing. We submitted third party inspection report before closing that grass is not healthy and need to be replaced. I was told it just needs some sun and would turn green soon after closing. I trusted and approved final walk. But the grass never turned green. When i requested in warranty they are currently pushing back to even add it in warranty

Pros: - Appearance and layout of home - Sales staff and build manager are responsive, informative and easy to work with - Base selection options (appliances, cabinets, flooring etc) were generally all decent quality - Builder's mortgage was competitive and great to work with (always shop around other loan estimates) Cons: - Horrendous impact sound insulation. If you have neighbors, especially upstairs/downstairs you WILL hear every footstep, door opening and cabinet closing they do. I can't emphasize enough how poor the sound insulation is, I would be more than happy to pay a higher sales price to have the home properly insulated. But they did not use the best sound materials or poorly designed on one of the most important factors of a home - The finish on fixtures/moldings are starting to crack everywhere after just 3 months. They do offer a one-time touch up that is recommended to wait until the 11th month to use but we'll see if they are willing to fix up the entire house Additional comments: - Warranty requests take time, from responses to scheduling a service visit to repairs can take easily over a month. The warranty staff are nice to work with. They can be a bit stingy on what they repair but continue to stay on them, take pictures and use the warranty service you paid for to the full extent ...

Pulte was not honest about deadlines, poor workmanship, many errors made ( like crooked outlets/ switch plates, unsatisfactory trim work, poor paint job, poor grout work (excess grout everywhere)). Over promised and under delivered.

My title says it all. Cookie cutter homes and less than cookie cutter service.

It was a long and painful experience. The last part of the completion was awful to say the least. We didn't like the way we were treated by some members of the construction team.

I am giving overall 2 start just because of the customer manager (Brandy)quick response. Worst experience for the rest all.

Timelines and quality are not as expected.

Have no one to report as there are way too many people changing hands here, nothing get passed on to the new guy coming in ...closed in March not happy as of yet

We are very disappointed with our pulte purchase. During our pre-construction meeting we were showed by our project manager plygem fold out windows we were getting with the house. After we moved in, we discovered pulte switched out all of the windows without our knowledge. No email or phone call. The windows we received do not fold out. We asked pulte about replacing the windows and they refused. We also had no hot water when we moved in. We had to call an emergency plumber to get hot water. We had versions issues such as the house was not cleaned when we moved in. There was blood behind the master tub. A jumper duct was missing and we had a mismatch of cabinet doors. There was no attention to detail by our project manager what so ever. Till this day, our project manager has failed to reach out over the window issue. We spent 700k for this house and we are very disappointed how the process went. ... Más

Communication from construction/field manager just has been really poor that I have to give a poor rating despite all other parts of the process being relatively positive. Initially provided dates are never right and promised dates have been broken too many times. I assure you that these problems are not supply chain related because items arrive on time. The problem is in giving incorrect information too many times over and over.

Our Construction Field Manager, Chad was the only one who communicated with us; he saved our faith in Pulte. He knew of our frustration with the delays, and he did his best to assure that we were informed without us having to reach out to him first. He also did his best to make sure that when we moved in we had a complete home. We are very thankful for all that Chad did for us! Nick has also been really great at making sure that issues are fixed now that we have moved in. His responsiveness has been greatly appreciated.

I’ll keep this short and sweet. Our home was ready for us to move in within the original time frame quoted so that was nice. The quality of the workmanship is relatively poor for this price range and for the fact that they are brand new luxury homes. When problems arise the team is pretty quick to respond which is convenient. Feels like PULTE rushes to build homes quickly with little quality control. Quantity over quality which should be the opposite.

Not a good experience. Unresponsive.

Buying/building with Pulte has been an absolute joke. Everything from the lending process to the post build expectations. Had I known then what I do now, things would have went a lot differently. So many empty promises and lack of empathy from the company. We have been moved into our house for over a month and there are still a ton of things left unfinished. The company and the project manager expect you to take time out of your schedule to meet with tradesmen, schedule appointments, and see projects through after you've already moved in. 0/10 recommend this company

You’ll be pressed to rate your experience however you should give a realistic score as the craftsmanship and follow through is sub par

Manny and Austin have been great on the construction side and warranty side to fix issues, but the quality of the home is poor. Clearly sloppy and quick work just to get the house done. Cabinets aren't level, trim is not square or flush, paint is sloppy and dripping. Paint is everywhere in grout and on the floor. Doorways and walls are clearly not level or square. Drywall finish in the entire upstairs is bad and has to be redone. The landscaping was quick and pretty sure the sod was dead when installed, grass still hasn't grown 2 months in and not sure if Pulte is going to replace it or not.

They rushed through to get it closed on time. Multiple things not completed or damaged when moved in. They said they’d fix it but we’ve been waiting over a month with little to nothing getting fixed. Have to keep reaching out and it gets pushed off. Most of the house is still good but bad experience overall. A lot of neighbors had similar experience.

I don’t think I would ever buy another home by Pulte , after you sign and have issues you can’t find out who to call . Too frustrating for a senior like myself

Sales: Taylor in our community was great. He was eager and great to work with. He did a great job of explaining everything to us, the process and all that jazz. He also steered us in the way of things he would personally recommend rather than what was the most expensive. He was always responsive and helpful to get us the attention we need. Design: overwhelming! Pulte actually did a great job and emailed us over the PDFs so we had an idea of the features we wanted to see and look at. This was a huge help with light fixtures, sinks, faucets, etc. Hurry up and wait (framing): our framing 'manager' Jackson left a little to be desired on updates. Communication was lacking and he would skip weekly calls for outside events without mentioning it to us such as weddings, vacations, etc. We weren't there for too long, but it started the building process off on a negative foot. post framing: Greg started off better and tapered off after closing. We were refused a closing date for several months (making life hard for a family with children), so we couldn't schedule movers, furniture, getting out of the apartment we lived in while our house was being built, etc. This frustration mounted towards the end when we had to pick new items such as counters we had selected 9 months before that were now 'out of stock'. We came down to the wire and constantly were asked to move our closing date (after we finally did get a day about 30 days out) and we ended up closing on a house that is still not complete. There is a lack of control and organization in their current build process Closing and financing: I WOULD recommend using Pulte as the finance company for the mortgage as well. You can shop rates and they will match typically, but if your house is moved back for any reason, they will not cancel your contract. However, their closing process is not the best. We did a lot of paperwork ahead of time to shorten the process and were informed we would get more via docusign, but it never came. We also waited 25 minutes (for a 30 minute closing) to even get started in their office as well as had them switch our consultant to someone we didn't know rather than the person we had worked with for several months. We are still waiting on some closing documents such as the final appraisal that were were told we would get, but haven't. they did not do much to explain the process and we had to go back for keys as they give you a small card that you take to the office of the community. Overall, the rate and savings made it bearable. Post close and moving in: We still had open items upon closing (something pulte touts as 'not a thing' - they say two things: home is 100% complete at close, and once you get a closing date, they get it all done... they did not. We got mirrors the day we closed with keys in hands, had drying paint and the house was absolutely filthy (dust on blinds, floors, walls, etc. and the house just wasn't' cleaned at all, sadly). Following that, we are two months in and still have open items. Our sales guy won't take our calls, our project manager won't respond to us and the manager or our PM has pushed us off to the client care team (who is great thus far, Anthony is actually getting it done). But we have items from filling in gaps in the garage concrete floor to fixing our floors that are not floated well or secured down to dry wall fixes that pictures were taken several months ago. We have also had 2 full water leaks thus far in the house as well as electrical issues and AVAC issues where the house wasn't balanced. Overall: it's a nice house with a sturdy framing and nice features. But the overall process to get everything up and running is a process within itself and the fight to get left over items closed is a battle. Do not sign the check until it's complete, if you can afford to do so (if you have a place to live). ... Más

Signed to build this house in February of 2021. Supposed to be complete in August, 2021. At least a half a dozen delays, 3 Construction Managers turned over. I'd find out at the last minute about delays requiring me and my wife to find another place to live after selling our home. Most of my construction close updates came from Pulte Mortgage. Each department pointed at the other as the arbiter of the decision. CMs were just about silent through the whole process - communicating nothing. Andrew being the one exception. Finally closed on the house March 15, 2022. Still waiting on sod and seed for a lawn, fix of window that doesn't lock and some exterior caulking that looks like a child put it on. ... Más

Buying process was rushed and prevented time to research to avoid surprises, such as the terraced streets with open view fence in the back so that people can see into your yard. We found out you cannot plant anything to effectively block the neighbors from seeing in and that was not disclosed either. Exterior choice is very limited and too many houses look the same. HOA doesn't let you change enough. Also reported some issues that need fixed to the number they gave us and nobody has followed through with even a phone call or email. Our home itself is beautiful inside but the neighbors being able to gawk into the backyard and even see into the house ruins our new house joy. We regret this purchase. ... Más
