Reseñas de Pulte Homes

Tuvimos una gran experiencia inicial mientras estábamos en el proceso de diseño de casas modelo y casas. Hubo problemas menores que se resolvieron fácilmente. Hacia el final las cosas salieron mal. Era obvio que había hitos que debían cumplirse incluso si se sacrificaran los estándares. Terminamos haciendo nuestro recorrido final con la casa sin terminar. Literalmente había paredes sin pintar y agujeros. Cuando cerramos, en realidad todavía había agujeros abiertos con piezas eléctricas expuestas. Recibí muchas disculpas y excusas. Han pasado dos meses desde el cierre y todavía recibo correos electrónicos intermitentes sobre cómo me actualizarán en 48 horas y esto fue hace más de una semana. Mi mayor error es dar buenas calificaciones en su encuesta de calidad, que le pedirán que haga. Supongo que fue una tontería de nuestra parte pensar que no completarían el trabajo que había que hacer si les dábamos los puntajes bajos de la encuesta que realmente se merecían. Gastamos más de $ 500k en nuestra casa y le recomendamos que considere sus opciones cuidadosamente, dado lo que hemos experimentado y estamos experimentando actualmente. ... Más

La mujer que manejó nuestra compra ha sido excelente y ha sido muy receptiva cuando planteamos nuestras inquietudes. Sin embargo, el hombre responsable de la construcción de nuestra casa fue lo suficientemente amable, pero todavía estamos esperando un mes después para que solucione los problemas notados antes del cierre. Aunque repetidamente nos dijo que estaría con nosotros durante treinta días después del cierre. La advertencia sobre "hacer el trabajo antes de que reciban su dinero" no podría ser más cierta. Se perdió dos opciones que habíamos solicitado. El primero se solucionó antes del cierre. El segundo era un lavabo doble en el baño. Solo había un fregadero instalado. Él "garantizó" la configuración correcta en 4 días. Luego se trasladó a la semana siguiente y luego se trasladó de nuevo. Finalmente, dijimos suficiente. Sin embargo, el trabajo que obtuvimos finalmente dejó el baño sucio con tres áreas del panel de yeso que necesitan atención (lo que terminaré haciendo). Y ahora ni el espejo ni la lámpara están centrados. Así que nos vemos obligados a aceptar trabajos deficientes porque no leyó los planos. También pagamos mucho dinero por las paredes renovadas. Mientras pintamos las paredes, no puedo creer toda la preparación de la pared que tengo que hacer para solucionar los problemas con los paneles de yeso y lijar grandes áreas de gotas de pintura. (Ni siquiera entraré en cuán mala es la pintura). Pero mencionaré la mala mano de obra con los zócalos. Hay numerosos huecos que intentaron llenar con masilla solo para incluso hacer un mal trabajo con la masilla. En este momento, estamos lidiando con ruidos de estallidos provenientes de las luces enlatadas en la cocina y el baño, y un fuerte abridor de la puerta del garaje. Si bien estas son las áreas problemáticas, hay algunas cosas que se hacen bien y algunos toques inesperados agradables. ... Más

Decepcionado con algunos de los accesorios del baño, lo más barato posible. Frustrado porque las casas que no han cerrado tienen sus aceras y entradas de cemento adentro y hemos estado escuchando más de un mes y todavía no tenemos nuestro cemento. Todavía no están clasificados, por lo que no podemos plantar césped. Cuando los pintores vinieron a arreglar artículos, se apresuraron y no hicieron un trabajo de calidad. La reparación de la puerta principal parecía que un alumno de sexto grado hizo el trabajo. otras casas se están construyendo en una subdivisión, así que clavos y tornillos por toda la calle y nadie los limpia excepto yo. Tarda como 10 minutos, alguien en Pulte podría hacerlo, como resultado ya he tenido un pinchazo. La pintura es frustrante porque se marca fácilmente y no se puede limpiar, debe volver a pintar. Decepcionado por la ventilación de retorno, las habitaciones tienen ventilaciones sobre la puerta en lugar de ventilaciones de retorno en las habitaciones, por lo que permite el ingreso de luz y ruido. ...

Nunca más hará que Pulte me vuelva a construir una casa

Pulte rushed me through the closing process to ensure they could meet a quota at the end of April. As a result, we are dealing with numerous unresolved issues with our new home, including flooring repairs, door issues, garage door issues, incessantly alarms from the fire building, and unfinished landscaping.

We have several issues with the craftsmanship.

Terrible quality and very poor responsiveness when issues identified during construction process. Don’t build with Pulte!

I want to first recognize Jeff, the Construction Manager, for the great job he did throughout the process. Jeff consistently kept me updated on the progress of construction and truly went above and beyond to ensure the project was completed on time. Because of his efforts, I was able to move out of my apartment and into my new home on the day of closing. His professionalism, communication, and dedication were excellent. Unfortunately, my concerns are more with Pulte as a company and some aspects of the construction quality and homeowner experience. Some of the layouts and materials used feel very basic for the price point. There were also several issues after move-in: Incorrect information was provided regarding trash and recycling. I could not connect to internet service when I moved in, which prevented me from working remotely. Spectrum had no answers and referred me to the HOA, where the response I received was very rude and unhelpful. The construction quality in certain areas has been disappointing. The window screens do not fully seal all four corners, allowing bugs and flies to easily enter the home. The sliding lanai door does not have a screen, and bugs constantly come into the house. I wake up almost every morning to dozens of dead bugs inside that I have to clean up daily. Another major issue is that my unit’s water meter was apparently being used for community irrigation without this ever being disclosed to me before closing or before I was instructed to place the meter in my name. I only discovered this after receiving my water bill and contacting the city myself to investigate. Homeowners should not have to discover issues like this on their own or front costs for irrigation and then wait for reimbursement.( this issue is still not resolved) Overall, while I appreciate Jeff’s efforts and professionalism, I believe Pulte needs to improve communication, construction quality, and the overall homeowner support experience after closing. ...

My home floors was in horrible condition still is as of today , they lied to me said they would take care the problem , they did nothing about it !!! Problem still exists as of today , now it’s time to have my furniture to be delivered my flooring still a horrible messed!!!!!

Our experience building with Pulte was incredibly frustrating from start to finish. If you are looking for a modern home or a collaborative builder, look elsewhere. No Flexibility or Customization: You are completely pigeonholed into outdated finishes and design packages. There is virtually zero room to customize, meaning you pay new-construction prices for a home that feels dated before you even move in. Subpar Craftsmanship: The overall quality of work is severely lacking. We quickly realized that if we weren’t on-site constantly checking on the house, basic things were skipped or done poorly. You essentially have to act as your own superintendent to ensure the bare minimum standards are met. Unresolved Issues After Closing: Despite our constant oversight, we still closed with a list of outstanding issues. Once Pulte has your money, their attitude changes completely. Abysmal Customer Care: Trying to get in touch with anyone post-close is incredibly difficult. When you finally do get a response, their process for addressing warranty or repair issues is painfully slow. To make matters worse, when they do send someone out to fix a problem, they do the job halfway, leaving you to deal with the fallout. We expected a much higher level of professionalism and build quality for the price. Pulte builds fast, but they do not build well, and their post-closing customer service is non-existent. Save yourself the headache and find a builder who values quality and customer relationships. ... Más

The buying of a brand new build was not what I was hoping it would be. The limitations on designs and material was disappointing. The design features (for instance, not being able to put a simple bath mat in front of the upgraded shower is extremely disappointing; switches and outlets are not innovative; builder quality material is poor; there is no pride in the build we have or the builds around us. Finally, we did not get what we thought we were - we selected one color brick (using pictures Pulte gave us) and got another completely different looking color, which has made me the most upset, our house is the ugliest on the block). I have told many friends not to go with Pulte and if I could do it all over, I would not choose Pulte. The responsiveness rating goes to the people and the attempts made to make things right, but unfortunately their hands were tied and Pulte was not able to do anything. ... Más

We were forced to close on a home that wasn’t fully completed. We gave as much push back as possible to have the home completed prior to closing but Pulte threatened us with potential fines or complete cancellation of the contract (and keeping our down payment deposit) if we didn’t close on their timeline despite the home being incomplete. In fact, we were cornered by the sales manager with these threats at a walkthrough of the property. We were told they’d come back to complete the remaining items but haven’t received any correspondence on these items since closing. Still awaiting for items to be completed two months post closing. I’ve requested a warranty repair for some of these items but that process has been a nightmare to deal with as well… quality customer service & responsiveness is nearly non existent with this company. ...

There are several issues- ALL are written down in my notebook from meeting on 9/5/25. Paint color- All of the walls are white, the only white walls were all of the closets SW7005 The HOUSE walls were: City Loft SW 7631. KITCHEN- Under cabinet lightening, there are none, but supposed to be. Kitchen Counter top is Silestone which is so ugly and it costs more than Granite. Let me say was a heartbreaker for me.,although there are others. The quality of the kitchen faucet is a 0, looks and feels like plastic, cheap. The tile in Kitchen and Owner’s BR were supposed to be laid diagonally, but were not. I paid $885.00 and the Owner’s Bath $130.00 And another charge of $3,635 for kitchen flooring(not sure what this charge is for). Also, the refrigerator has got to be the smallest frig for any house! I barely have enough space for just me, but I like to cook, so it’s really too small. I and my late husband built our last house and he said, “paint it any color you like”, there wasn’t a white wall in the entire house. I believe this was a total misunderstanding. It’s fine if you like white, I don't! ELECTRIC the switches by the back door don’t work, but did. They, the first 2 on the Left, started out working, now they don’t do anything, but the switch next to it switches on/off what the first switch used to. I know, weird. MY BIG BEEF is I can’t plant anything! I know you want things, including plants to look good, no problem they will. I have lots of experience as my last home had 3.2 acres, it was gorgeous! All I want is to take out the grass between the two trees in the backyard. It’s driving me crazy sitting here everyday not being able to work in my yard and making me fat too. I am used to mowing more than this yard is using a push mower…it saved my sanity, otherwise I’m sitting here staring at white walls. Please give me something to care about instead of missing my husband. As a Florida native I know my plants and whoever chose these plants did a terrible job! The grass too, St Augustine grass needs a lot of watering, spraying for bugs, should have left the Bahia grass…bugs leave it alone, hot weather won’t kill it. Whoever is supposed to be edging , isn’t. I edged it myself. Please don’t spray my grass, this is what killed my husband. If you let me plant flowers I can gladly forget the flaws/mishaps in the house! Sincerely, ... Más

Unfortunately, our experience after moving into the home has been extremely disappointing and frustrating. We have encountered multiple issues with the house that required attention, and the process to get them addressed has been slow, unorganized, and lacking accountability. Communication significantly dropped off after closing. It has been very difficult to get timely responses or clear updates on the status of our concerns. In some cases, we have had to follow up multiple times just to get basic information, which should not be the responsibility of the homeowner. What’s more concerning is the lack of ownership in resolving these issues. Problems that should have been straightforward to fix have taken far longer than expected, and the overall coordination has been poor. This has taken away from what should have been an exciting and enjoyable experience of settling into a new home. Additionally, we were informed about a referral bonus at the time of closing, completed all required steps, and provided the necessary information. However, even after the expected timeline has passed, there has been no clear update, and attempts to follow up have gone unanswered. This only adds to the frustration and reflects poorly on the post-closing support. Overall, the lack of responsiveness, delays in addressing issues, and poor follow-through have made the post-move-in experience very disappointing. This is not the level of service we expected after making such a significant investment ... Más

New homeowner of pulte home was very underwhelming. Build quality is full of issues in manteca. Eg. Wiring problems, paint issues, carpet padding nails are exposed; that even injured the kid. Baseboard are uneven and had nail patches.

We are writing this to show our unsatisfaction and formally document construction deficiencies in our home built by Pulte Homes. Following our pre-drywall meeting, we identified multiple issues, including gaps in the second-floor wood framing and flooring defects in the master bedroom, the other bedrooms and loft areas. These concerns were repeatedly brought to the construction manager’s attention, and we were assured they would be corrected. However, during the pre-closing walkthrough and even on the day of closing, many of these issues remained unresolved, including persistent squeaking and popping flooring, misaligned door trim, and other finish defects. We proceeded with closing in good faith, relying on assurances that repairs would be completed. After returning from closing, we noticed these issues have not been adequately resolved and have been transferred to warranty. Additional problems have also arisen, including crack window, broken kitchen door, a non-functioning door chime, improper doorbell installation, and HVAC airflow deficiencies. Since we moved in, we have had workers coming in to fix the issues under warranty like framer- 2-3 times- carpet guy, door company trying to fix the kitchen door- weather strips. These conditions indicate a failure to properly complete construction and inspection. We feel like we bought a 30 years old home with lots of problems. We are not enjoying the time in our home. Most people won’t even have those issues in their fifth year 10 year but we started having those issues even before closing and still we are experiencing those problems. ... Más

House has issues from Day 1. Sales and Construction unresponsive. Warranty rep excellent

The contract part with Pulte was very smooth, however don’t forget to read the fine print. They have an exclusion which allows them not to pay the property taxes because they aren’t assessed at the time of the closing. Construction. What a nightmare. The subcontractors made multiple mistakes, the job site was filthy and the construction manager and his supervisor are not on top of the construction. The electric box was mounted within 6 inches of the gas line. Living in the home, so many cold areas, question proper insulation. Corner beads throughout the home. Very disappointed with Pulte and how they handle things. ... Más

Your team is doing a great disservice to your organization with their shoddy workmanship, rude behavior and a seemingly transactional approach. In their haste to complete a home in 90 days they are forgetting that at a bare minimum the home must feel good to the occupants when they move in. Cracks in a new home, uneven floors, waviness in walls and corners to name a few have been sighted and reportd. Your construction crew and customer service seem content to pass the customer on between themselves not taking ownership of issues that have been highlighted to them and addressing them appropriately. ... Más

Pulte’s contract is one sided, entitling them legally to do whatever they want. They can change your home, lot, site plan, closing date, etc. at will and you can’t do anything about it. They won’t even provide a discount when the changes impact the value of your home. We waited 11 months for our unit which they actually built in a hurry in 6 months. Their quality standards are low and they refer to these as Pulte’s standards”. At the final inspection, 2-5 days prior to closing, they will show you your home dirty with cracks on walls, incomplete paint on walls, extra drilled holes on walls due to incorrect placement of closet wire shelves, paint spots on fixtures and floors, scratched and dirty kitchen cabinets, dirty carpet, etc. You mark every issue you can find in just 2 hours and they tell you they will fix it all before your closing in 2-5 days. Then you find your home, after closing, in a similar shape as when you inspected it a few days earlier. The manager that handles the last part of their process is incompetent. He lacks expertise and customer service skills. He is disrespectful, non-trustworthy and incapable of apologizing. We never received information on how things work in the home, which he was supposed to provide us with. He simply he gave us 2 pamphlets to read. If you complain or request to speak with their management, they make it impossible. Furthermore, if you get to speak with their management, they will side with their incompetent staff and even lie to you. In summary, we did not find a Pulte representative during our buying process that was trustworthy, beginning with the sales person, through their construction managers and their management. Just a couple of months in the home, we are still cleaning, we are finding more cracks surfacing on the walls and poor quality issues. ... Más

Very bad after sale

Nothing to say about this

Not the same quality that’s I was told

We purchased a new townhome built by Pulte Homes in Apex, NC, and unfortunately, our experience has been below expectations. The overall workmanship feels rushed and sloppy — issues we pointed out before closing were either covered up or cosmetically “fixed,” not properly addressed. After closing, getting anything resolved was an uphill battle. The sales and project management teams became unresponsive, and the warranty team hasn’t been much better. The materials used seem subpar: paint quality is poor, floors squeak everywhere, and you can feel the whole building shake when someone walks up the stairs. These are not things you expect in a new-build home at this price point. The lack of accountability and follow‑through after the sale is especially disappointing. Overall, I would rate Pulte’s workmanship and post‑sales service as below average. I wouldn’t strongly recommend them to others, especially if you value attention to detail and responsive customer care. ... Más

I would give less than 1 or zero if that were on the list! It is all cheap materials—looks like a trainee built the house rather than a professional. I can list hundreds of them. I had to get my flooring done with tiles and when the carpet is lifted, i t was rough surface and holes everywhere like they hammered it—-staris too same thing! Very poor job overall!
