Del Webb Reviews

the builder representative relation and interaction as the building was in the building stage from foundation to completion and after. Our Rep. quick to follow up and paid attention to detail. Doesn't "shine you on" like some do. Heads up individual

Very quick in responding to questions.

Pulte needs to have more knowledgeable customer representatives at the front office when making a purchase. In my case I didn’t feel I had that. Questions couldn’t be answered and I didn’t receive the professional care that I should have. The professional care I did receive was from the building supervisor. He was in contact with me throughout the whole building process. He was excellent.

This was our 5th new home purchase. Overall, the experience was about average. One negative aspect was that Del Webb required a 20% deposit at contract, which in my opinion was excessive.

The actual builder was great. Some of the materials are substandard - was @ bit surprised.

Being on the East coast during the construction was difficult and didn’t have the best updates of construction.

Overall the experience was good. At times it appeared that the salesperson (Rita) was not in tune with notices that were sent to me. The Pulte representative (Steve) was very helpful and kept us up-to-date of the progress.

We have now lived in two Del Webb communities and we have had good building and closing experiences

Workmanship on building home was good. Finishing items had a lot to be desired. Things not noticed until you are actually living in home. Location of outlets in rooms could be better. Wish certain options were offered (walk in shower, stove top with separate oven/micro.

Fun to work with from the sales through design phase and build phase. We have enjoyed our new home.

Overall, a positive experience. There was no pressure and a model was available to examine. Not being allowed to select room colors was a disappointment. They can keep flooring choices straight in various locations so why not paint colors? The light fixture in the dining room was not centered and there was no outlet in a needed location even though there was one in the model. The kitchen exhaust fan is very loud. There could have been more options. For example, being able to get (& pay for) a solar tube to light center of house. Being able to select ceiling fans rather than pay for builders fixtures and then immediately replace with fans would have been better. A couple of things could have been articulated more accurately - the million dollar termite warranty is actually 100K per year over 10 years and the last 9 only are valid if you hire the pest control company. There was supposedly a deal with an alarm company but that was a wild goose chase. What was done was done extremely well. Both my real estate agent and private building inspector said that the house had the fewest deficiencies they had encountered. There were weekly calls from the construction manager and any questions were promptly answered responsively. The quality of the work reflects on him primarily. Del Webb is fortunate to have Steve. After 2 months, it is too soon to make a final assessment as how things hold up is important. ... More

Response to all issues has been phenomenal. Would like to have seen some leeway in how the interior of the home is laid out. I.e. light switches, lack of lights in closets

Be involved during the building process, in person when you can!

We really like the layout and design of our new home. The community and residents are great. Our only area we wish was little better was the workmanship of the home. It seems speed was a higher priority than the workmanship of the finished product.

Builders team was great

We built in Tidewater, Estero, Florida. Great experience with the Pulte staff. The product is excellent.

Plan on going over budget at design center

The builder team was very good.

Home turned out great

I have lived in my new home for 5 weeks. I'm happy with the quality and workmanship. There were a few issues but they were minor. I would recommend Del Webb to my friends.

When we had a question we often did not receive a call back ASAP.

Construction phases all went smoothly and our construction manager was SUPER to work with. Loan application and mortgage process was very frustrating. Worked with multiple people each asking for the same things over and over again. Process started earlier than expected and seemed to go on and on to the very last minute. Closer was refreshing in that she felt our pain and understood the difficulties working with Pulte in Colorado.

When we have had small issues, Craig is very quick to respond to help us with answers, or gets subs to come back to fix things. Overall, we love our house and are very glad to be here.

The overall buying experience with our first field manager went extremely smooth. It made the home buying /build process an easy one. Our team were responsive. The new environment in which we all find ourselves in found us toward the end of the process therefore responsiveness changed due to staff changes. We have had an issue with communication with current field manager we are working toward resolution.

Our overall experience was positive largely due to our sales consultant, Mark M., and our wonderful field manager, Nick. The “prices” are reasonable—BUT the cost of options to make the house livable is outrageous. The lack of complete sheathing in the framing stage—the Pulte process—is of concern to us. Even though Pulte Provides dumpsters, the construction lots are a mess—we are constantly picking up trash blown into our yard. Workers throw down food scraps, plastic bottles, and trash. If they can’t put it in the “construction only” dumpsters, provide recycling and trash containers!
