Del Webb Reviews

They do an exceptional job.

This would be a five star rating except he home buying experience was marred by now a former employee and our home suffers from us making uninformed decisions with him. However, the company took action and he is no longer employed; everyone else is great..

Road noise from Dinah Shore Drive makes being in the backyard impossible. Road noise is even heard from within the house.

There are a good amount of activities to join and a good variety. With 900 homes many opportunities should be offered multiple times so that no offering gets filled up making many people not able to participate.

Overall quality pretty good, some features upscale. Finish details leave a lot to be desired.

So if you are Having a house built by Del Webb you need to pay attention to your building manager and ask the same questions multiple times

Homes are built very fast. Hopefully at no sacrifice to quality!

Once I got a new project manager, the build ran smoothly with constant communication which I so appreciated.

Everyone we dealt with was great, even though our home was delayed by nearly 3 months, we always felt they cared about us and our problems.

I think they need to have someone help the new owner fill out the paper work...Where everything is, shopping, registering your car, info on banks, Dr., etc. Coming from out of State it is a little confusing trying to connect all the dots. You're pretty much left on your own to figure it out...

Examine every single detail of the model home so that there are no surprises with your actual home. Take nothing for granted.

Dealing with Pultie and Del Webb went as expected.

Many of the touches such as painting are not up to snuff. However, some of my concerns have been addressed. I am not sure I would buy from Del Webb again though.

The sales/buying experience was typical of most production home builders. Nothing exciting to remark positively about. On the negative side there were several issues. The Design Center options and price list was out of date for the model we purchased, and if I weren’t able to read construction drawings, we would have missed out on contracting for several items. It’s also a significantly disappointing situation to not be able to make some minor changes, during the contract signing process to alter closet layouts, change a pantry door swing, or add some additional wall outlets in the home. There are multiple locations where the standard outlets being provided, are insufficient. The quality of the materials and construction were quite good. Our Construction Manager was truly excellent and had a customer-first attitude. In contrast, our sales rep was severely lacking after the contract was signed. Overall we are satisfied with the home we received, but we are disappointed in the post-closing warranty department, because we have learned that if we don’t continually chase them down, then nothing happens. We would probably buy again, since, for the price, the home product is good value for what we received. ... More

Overall we are very happy with our new home. The buying process was fine except for the mortgage application. We wasted months trying to get a Pulte mortgage - finally used another lender. The quality of the home is great except for the flooring. We chose the most expensive upgrade for flooring and the floors are terrible. Wish there had been an option for actual hardwood floors vs engineered hardwood. And our dishwasher was not working upon move in and after waiting a month for a repair my husband finally uninstalled and reinstalled it properly. All the people we worked with were very nice. Also feel that Del Webb “oversold” some of the amenities - like the new pool will not have a swim up bar as promised. And Del Webb needs to have some sort of ombudsman with the post office/UPS/Fedex - after a month we still can not get packages at our new address. ... More

The building experience was great, they constructed on time and kept us well informed at every stage. We've had 4 houses built in the past and this was by far the best build quality. However, post closing, the Pulte selected HOA management "Castle Group" has been a disappointment. They don't always respond to emails or voicemails and are generally disinterested in helping resolve issues. We're hoping that service quality improves as no escalation path has been provided for us. If we had a better HOA management team, our overall experience would be excellent.

There were too many different people involved in the Pulte Mortgage process from start to finish. We love the home and the community.

We have lived in other Dell Webb communities before and this house in Stone Creek seems to be better constructed. Issues with the home are taken care of much quicker before the purchase than after.

We are happy with our purchase but disappointed by some of the small details not addressed until after closing and then other issues that presented themselves within the first month. The issues though, were addressed in a timely fashion.

Had a great salesman. Very informed a word to get good deal.

There were a lot of initial problems when we first moved into our new home. Thanks to the persistence and dedication of our site manager, Josh, most were taken care of in a reasonable time frame. Working with the warranty people for follow up since then has been good.

There were several issues when I moved in -sliding door would not lock - air conditioning would not turn off. I had to turn it off at the breaker - dishwasher was not connected to the water - sprinklers were not connected to water

Overall we very pleased with our new home. Everyone we dealt with throughout the process was polite and responsive. The reasons I didn’t give 5 star ratings are as follows 1) the loan approval process took way too long. We were told 4-5 weeks and it ended up being close to 12 weeks for a conditional approval. We also felt that we asked to verify and reverify financial information that had been submitted previously. 2) We did not feel that there was a lot of communication during the construction process until toward the end. 3) We did our final walk through and noticed a few minor things that were corrected by the time we moved in. However, after moving in we had the house inspected and we found several things needing correction, i,e, loose roof tiles, missing light fixtures/bulbs, bathroom cabinet with large crack in the base to name a few. We were disappointed that an independent inspector found these issues and Pulte did not. Again, overall we are very pleased with the design of the home and we love the community and amenities. Also, the warranty staff have been very responsive and polite and we are confident that the issues discovered during the inspection will be resolved timely. ... More

Bought a spec...for model and location..pallet turned out great...response to blue tape items takes a while.

The mortgage process was very difficult.
