Del Webb Reviews in Austin, TX

The building manager was great. He provided us with biweekly updates, which were helpful.

Overall, our experience with the Pulte folks - from sales to our foreman - was great but the quality of the subcontractors they brought in left a lot to desire. Especially framing (90 degree angles and straight boards appear to be an alien concept) and trim and finish (even after repeated attempts they still struggled with getting paint right, texture applied, and paint actually on where they were trying to paint). But - our foreman, Carl, addressed issues and stayed on them like a chicken on a June bug and got issues sorted out.

I lived in another town so conducted construction meetings through telephone and via internet...was kept well informed on progress. It did help that my daughter lives in Georgetown and went by and took pictures every step of the way.

Great over 50 lifestyle

Just don’t look too closely. I think some of Pulte’s contractors cut corners where you don’t notice until you live in the house for a while.

Quality, workmanship and materials are poor. Issues are many and are not quickly resolved. When issues are worked quality of workmanship is also poor.

Excellent workmanship. The cabinets are many and plenty of closets space.

Disappointed in the fit and finish

The sales people drummed into our heads that Pulte is not a custom builder. All homes are built to a standard. Silly me, I expected the models to reflect that standard. When we got into the home, we found several "standard" items that did not match the model. I have had to make modifications to the home to make it useable, With respect to the wiring in the home for TV, phone and internet, I expected the wiring contractor to understand how the cable companies would install their equipment. Once again, my expectation was not met and I am now going through added expense to make these services work as was expected. To new buyers: verify critical expectations before buying. ... More

We are very pleased with our home, the workmanship, features, and quality in what we selected. After we finish accessorizing the house, we will be taking advantage of all that Sun City has to offer.

We’ve lived in Sun City for 5 years. This is our third home, but it’s our first new one. We loved working with our salesperson. We found some of the option selection process frustrating because of the limitations. When paying this much for an estate model home, there should be more flexibility. Now that we’ve moved on, we love the lication and the model. There have been some quality of construction and finishing details that should not have happened. When paying this much for an estate model home, I expect both competence and craftsmanship. Sadly, Del Webb has fallen short on both. I hope it improves as we try to get the detail issues corrected. If so, I’ll post an update. ... More

A building superintendent JL was a pleasure to work with. After closing he still took responsibility four items that weren't perfect. The warranty person assigned to me, Johnny, appears to be very knowledgeable.

Sales consultant was very informative and our house came with great incentives. The senior construction manager was fantastic all through the process, what ever concerns we had were dealt with in a cordial and professional manner. He has been awesome! We are very happy with our home, and we would recommend Del Webb Sun City Texas to anyone.

At each step in the process someone was there to help. We have bought several homes over the years, but none was as easy as this purchase.

From start to close this was the easiest home build and loan experience I have ever had. The people were genuinely concerned to be sure you were happy. I was sent progress pictures by my sales person about every 3 weeks. At inspection every thing I showed them was corrected to my satisfaction.

We have had a great experience with our interaction with Del Webb homes and, their staff. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a home in one of their communities.

The workmanship in our home is, to be polite, poor. Paint spatters on the floors in every room in the house. Out of square walls. Doors that don't fit the frames. These are just a few of the issues we have had with this house. We never heard from our salesman again after the contract was signed. Overall this was not the experience we had looked forward to. It's not likely that we would ever buy another Pulte home.
