Del Webb Reviews

Dont expect much from Pulte. donot get upgrades, because they will not honor them in a timely manner, even if ordered 10 months out. It has nothing to do with supply delays. No communications unless you become a pitbull. It is extremely exhausting to deal with. I have had nothing but issues prior to close, during close and after close. A month after closing, still working on issues.

Disappointed with the number of things that needed to be corrected. Instead of being addressed by builder, the home buyer needed to identify these issues and then follow-up with builder to see if they have been addresses.

After many delays in our closing date, almost 5 months, we have closed. Some of the issues we noticed at closing still haven't been addressed and many other small things have been noticed, which were not easily seen. Like shoddy finishing on the spakling, cabinet installation, screens too small to fit windows etc.

The sales and finance people did a great job. My home builder John was on top of things, but there were several issues that needed to be addressed after closing which were poor workmanship by the subs. With what we paid for this home I believe the subs should be held to a higher standard.

For the most part working with Pulte was a good experience. However, we were never informed about the location of support posts in our finished basement. Now there is a post/column 3 feet from the center of the stairs. Very poor planning and very unattractive and the people we’ve talked to say it would have been easy to move this post a few feet away. At closing we agreed that there were 5/6 issues that still needed attention: 1. Our contract states the the cold air vent which is high up in the entryway would be moved down closer to the floor. 2. The screens in several windows do not fit properly along the bottom. There’s a gap where insects can easily get in. 3. Our refrigerator is still not installed. 4. The master shower door is not installed. 5. A spot of crown molding needs sanding and repainting. The furnace room and sump pump rooms were never cleaned up so we have had to remove debris left by the workers. We understand that our addition has a number of houses that are in the final stages so the contractors are busy trying to finish all these properties but it is now 5+ weeks since our closing and none of the above issues have been resolved and email, calls and texts go unanswered. It’s a beautiful and well-maintained property so the lack of attention to the above issues is disappointing especially since our house is over 4000 sa.ft. and has upgrades throughout. ... More

Pulte Mortgage is a nightmare. Pulte construction another nightmare.

The project took months longer than expected. The materials and workmanship were also below expectations. And it has been difficult to get the builder to handle the deficiencies. This is our third home in this project. And our fourth Del Webb home. So we have previous builds for comparison. And this one was quite unacceptable from our perspective.

So happy with our new home! Thank you Del Webb.

My Pulte home is perfect for me. They offered many choices, and the Blue Rock single family model with the loft suited me perfectly. The purchase, build and closing proecesses were easy and efficient.

The response by the construction guy Dana. Every question I had was answered very quickly. Dana is the guy you want!

The whole experience was terrific beginning with our sales consultant Siobhain along with Jaime’s help in making our selection at TAC. I also can’t say enough good things about our Project Managers Zack and Josh. They have gone above and beyond to make sure everything was done right. I also wanted to say that our closing couldn’t have been easier. Thank you all!

The sales person, Jen, was awesome as well as the design team. They were most helpful in helping me make decisions about various items. My main problem with the entire process was the quality control of various vendors who worked on my home. Clearly, there was limited overseer of the build. If you are going to build here, live close to monitor it. I lived out of state so was not able to do so.

Overall the experience was a positive one. There are some small things like paint issues. We love it here

Much is made of Pulte process and quality. But the subs used to do the finish work, at least on the Albuquerque Mirehaven Phase 4 Del Webb development, were slap dash with little pride of workmanship. There is always time to come back (often more than once) and do it again, rather than doing it right and with quality the first time. The most concerning part is on more than a few occasions attempts were made to cover up the mistakes. (cracked toilet bowl with calk to hide the crack, broken floor tiles with grout to cover chipped areas.) There was virtually no supervision of the subs doing the work nor respect for the work completed by other subs. ... More

For the most part, the entire experience was well-orchestrated and organized. There was a lot of step-by-step handholding all along the way which greatly alleviated what could have been a very stressful experience.

Everyone that I've dealt with has been friendly, courteous and professional. Ben Haley, Kerry Fulford, and Priya Patel have been great to work with. Lots of issues but I blame that on problems that are outside the control of the builders. That being said it was still a stressful and difficult time, glad to be in my home however.

Poor response to issues pointed out during construction

Throughout the process there were things that should have been red flags and not addressed. Now I’m in the house with multiple issues and no resolution as to when or if they will be resolved. I get tossed from one person to the next and my problem never gets fixed. Been in house a month and TOLD It will be another month for an appointment and not all will be fixed on first go around. I have been without a working oven and microwave for 3 weeks and counting. Everyone I talk to has been no help. Items that should be in my house aren’t and I’m paying the mortgage on promises they will eventually get installed. Lighting and e,e TRI Al issues there isn’t anything I can say that has been positive. Wouldn’t recommend the complete thing has been a miserable experience ... More

Moving from one Del Webb to another does not come with any perks. It’s like starting all over. The sales dept had their hands tied in offering lots to sell. The release of lots was done in stages and pricing was not as advertised. We paid $37,000 more just for the bare minimum of the homes original stated price. Pulte Mortgage representative was a disaster. It was not about the consumer. It was how to make their job easier. Always had problems getting call backs and verifying interest rate hikes. Finally cut ties with the mortgage side of the house. Hated to give up the incentive on the loan. In the end it saved us thousands of dollars. The construction superintendent Matt was the best. He kept us informed of the project and any delays. He was very thorough in his walk through explanations. Don’t expect the build to be perfect. Labor is not skilled and they expect someone to clean up the mess they make. Embarrassing for a company such as Pulte. This is their new normal. It shows up in every phase from start to finish. Would I purchase from them again. No. Would I recommend them. No. As the mortgage specialist said to us on the calls; “ This would make my job so much easier if you did this for me. “ This is Pultes mission statement. ... More

Good value and price has already appreciated. Excellent house plan. I love Abbeyville.

Every week we received updated pictures of the process of construction of our new home in Mesquite. There was continual communication throughout especially when there was delays and/or shortages in products. We would certainly purchase a Del Webb home again and would recommend highly.

To get things done after we are in the house are taking to long. some of your sub contractors are not responsive and slow. We are still waiting for our kitchen cabinets to be finished. they came once and made it worse. The flooring crew came today and looked and said that they have to send a different crew. had this appointment for 5 weeks.

Alex is our builder and always responded quickly to any questions we had

From the very first conversation with Theresa ~ my experience has been phenomenal. The Loan process, insurance, escrow and then build walkthrough ~ every person has been extremely top notch. Excellent experience.

In this day of home buying/building and supply issues, Zac was the one we turned to for updates, questions and soothing. The experience was probably the best it could be given the situation in the world today. The only reason I couldn't rate a 5 is due to the build time and a few communication issues during construction.
