Del Webb Reviews in Ocala, FL

Use Darren as sales and Gordon as project manager.

Overall really good experience, I did not care for the Edmonton options for power windows. Maybe I did not understand, but I assumed it was power for any blinds, but it was very proprietary. It also seemed like the doorbell camera system lacked some basic functionality. The fire alarms went off at 3am, two separate times. So the electronic components need work. The only thing I would like more from Pulte was the kitchen island was cut in two pieces and the patterns do not look natural. We noticed on the model, the the island was a single piece, and we were very disappointed with what is beautiful granite, is now something less. Finally, the two types of grass seems tacky. They grow at different rates and just adds to maintenance for homeowner. Also, the St Augustine grass had numerous dead squares when we moved in. We have yet to figure out how to restore it. Hate to sound negative, as much of the process was very good. These are some items I felt were significant to identify. ... More

We did not receive our house in clean condition. All other issues have been resolved or in the process of being taken care of.

The sales did not understand are needs. 3 things I did want not to be on a hill which you could not tell when bought. No room for pool was not told. Woods on otherwise of golf course were going to be tore down for homes.

Overall good experience. Crazy high price increases due to pandemic, but we had to buy. Del Webb and Pulte were great to work with, our Construction PM was excellent even with all the delays, all was communicated effectively.

You need to ask questions as to what you would like in your new home. Make a list of the items you prefer and ask if those items are included. If not, can Dell Webb/Pulte add them as options to the home? Some things are too costly to add after the home is completed.

We enjoy your new home.

Other then the length of time to build the house the entire process was great. The quality is top notch and the value of my home should only increase with time. My relationship with the builder's team was very good throughout the whole process.

Darren our salesman was awesome

Several repairs to our brand new home have been required, each request has been fulfilled in a timely manner.

F Dieguez attention to detail was outstanding and he followed up on all problems left by workers great job frank

Beautiful home, well built to a point, but watch out for the missing details. Still finding and dealing with some sloppy workmanship issues that should not exist. The good news is that most are being addressed, slowly, but it is a never-ending process finding things that should have just been done right the first time.

We had an independent house inspector do the inspection before the sheetrock got installed and the final inspection. It was the best insurance we ever purchased. His inspections showed that the quality of construction was good and he tagged everything that needed to be repaired prior to closing. We had three different construction PM's during the building process. All of them seemed competent and easy to work with. Our inspector will also do the 1 year warranty walkthrough when it comes time for that.

Homes are handled with care but like life, we make mistakes. Look over carefully and voice your concerns so they can make them right.

Am very happy two major thing so far need to repair like front door kitchen hood under mounting light cabinets was poorly in stall I. Feel they can do a. Better job Value home is good Gordon is a. Very good. Product manager he very knowledgeable very happy with him our walk though is very enjoyable he see things and point it out to repairs Very excellent builder. They. Are on top of things when work Oder is put in to repair

Read the purchase agreement thoroughly. Make sure you understand what is included and what is not. Ask about additional expenses such as lawn care, lawn pest control, home pest control, and termite control. Understand what type of sod you are receiving. Do a complete inspection at walk through and make sure every issue is documented. Do not sign off on any issue before it is corrected. If you do your due diligence, then it will be a smoother and less stressful experience. Overall we are pleased with the process.

Our contractor was great to work with. Response to issues has been quick. Unfortunately, we did have problems with the finished product. Seems like subcontractors hired by the builder should be vetted more thoroughly. Upon moving in we have had significant problems with the electrical and HVAC, and the painting was very sloppy.

Overall, we feel we got pretty good value and like the house. A lot of attention to detail in both workmanship but also areas where Pulte cheaped out, which kept it from being a fantastic experience and house

He was very helpful for us. I would let all mew homebuyers to make sure the contact spectrum cable to make sure the underground cable is run to the house.

The sales experience and design process were awesome. Allen and Nikki are the best! The house was completed on time as scheduled. We love the neighborhood, amenities, etc. All systems and maintenance were thoroughly explained to us (sprinklers, pest control , hot water heater, A/C, etc.). Warranty items are addressed sufficiently; some quicker than others, but they are very busy. The downside: we couldn’t believe how many doors bump walls when opened. Design flaw? Be prepared to apply bumper pads. The cleaning crew left a lot to be desired. Baseboards, walls, doors, shelves, everything had to be cleaned. Very sloppy tradesworkers. Dings, gouges, mismatched screws, dripped paint and grout, scratched glass, sprinklers covered by sod, just to name a few. Pulte would save a fortune in repair costs if they just hired crews that did the job right the first time. Chase was great at ensuring damaged items were repaired (or did it himself!). Overall, a good experience. ... More

We really enjoy our new home. We’ve only been in for 6 weeks but so far everything has been great. A few things need to be fixed but they are chipping away at it.

The realtor that sold us our home was misleading. We were led to believe our edging and lawn mowing were included in the HOA fee and after we got there found out they were not. In talking to our neighbors, many of them said they were also misled about this issue.

The design center options are too limited and too restricted. I wanted a specific wall tile but I couldn’t pick it for my model which makes no sense since they have the tile. It would be great to add another 10 or 15 feet to provide a 1/2 bath and storage, The design center options are overpriced for the product. I just wish Pulte would give greater consideration to what buyers want and less on what Pulte has decided to offer. The construction manager kept me updated with photos and that was great. The amenities are wonderful and so are social options but more social activities needed for those who are still working. I would recommend Stone Creek but caution to ask more questions during the decision to pick a model, a lot more questions about the options along with full disclosure from Pulte on what is and is not included or is or is not a feature. It is frustrating when inexpensive features are omitted to save Pulte a little money but such features would have been appreciated for convenience or “more finished” look with kitchen cabinets or bullnose tile finishes. To Pulte provide more electrical outlets, without extra charge, and recognize that many cords today have the bulky end which really takes up the entire outlet. And finally, make the half bath standard no matter which model! ... More

Loving the community ane the neighbors

My Field Manager was very good. During the building process he responded quickly to my questions and concerns. After I closed and moved into the house, he continued to follow up on tasks that still needed to be completed. The warranty people have also been quick to respond and correct flaws.
