Quality is not good

I have 2 exterior doors that were improperly installed. Jams are way out of plumb. Can’t fix that unless it’s done over. They won’t do it.

There were definitely some challenges, missed build finish dates, mortgage issues, some minor quality issues, landscaping irrigation issues. But overall we are very happy with the move

Some good, some not so good

Many quality features built into the home and in some areas, less than desirable. Paver brick driveway, patio and tile roofs are quality features. Windows leave much to be desired. Low emissivity glass to reduce solar heat energy should be essential in Florida but clear glass is what's provided which puts a greater demand on the air conditioning system. They provide hurricane shutter panels that need to be installed for protection. Installation is not a simple job. Hurricane rated windows would have been a better alternative. There are numerous little things that may not pop out when looking ...

The villa was worth the wait!!

The salesman I worked with was fabulous and became my point person when my project manager didn't step up. I heard from him once during the building of my villa and not again until the walk through. If it wasn't for my sales manager I would have been in limbo. The villa looks great and I found very few things that need to be tweaked.

Talon Preserve

  • Howard T.

  • November 03, 2022
  • Nokomis, FL

The home took 7 months longer than targeted closing date, but that was a supplies and labor issue. Our Field Rep, Dustin, was attentive and always answered our questions in a timely manner, but the workmanship is shoddy, at best. There is no pride in the finished product and certainly no quality control at all. A supervisor should look at work done and correct most mistakes before closing. Our pat answer was "It is on backorder." We love our home but there are so many issues that should have been addressed prior to closing. In the long run that would save DiVosta money because there ...

Sales staff were attentive at first, but not as much after we signed the contract. Construction manager was outstanding throughout the build process and even after closing making sure all punch list items were taken care of promptly.

The home is beautiful! Non working toilet. Microwave pours out smoke. Windows don’t open. Waiting for correct refrigerator. Drywall and paint demonstrate poor workmanship. Requested tub with whirlpool. Denied. Required to purchase a tub I am unable to use. Sink drains do not hold water. Pulte Homes is trying to help with mechanical issues.

So far the experience has been very good. Since we have not been able to occupy our new home yet we can't make a completely accurate assessment on all aspects of the criteria listed above. There was one outstanding issue that has not been resolved yet (a damaged window screen).

Jot down all of your concerns !

  • Alfreda I.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • September 09, 2020
  • Sarasota, FL

List all of your concerns and report them to them to your project managers so they can be addressed. Many of the flaws will be a quick fix. The most urgent problems will be attended to first so they don't become a major issue in the future. When the staff plans to do a repair at your home, have them give you a scheduled date and time. This way you will be prepared to be at home and ready to assist if necessary.

The sales agent and building supervisor were fantastic. Pulte cuts corners on quality and the landscaping they put in is poor for $500,000 + home. Their communities are very nice but KEEP an eye on your home while it is being built.

We were excited and eager to move into our new home at IslandWalk. However our disappointment started with a call from Pulte Mortgage indicating that that they needed a last minute form to close, with less than a week before our scheduled close. “We’re really busy right now,” was the explanation. Finally get keys to our dream home, and immediately notice the lack of attention to details: the final cleaning was terrible - dust and grout on tile floors, paint in carpet. Appliance handles were assembled without removing plastic - now we have scraps that we have to try to remove. CAT 6 outlets ...

Mallory Park Review

  • Bradenton, FL

Overall the experience with DiVosta was a good one. The house looks great and we are very happy with it. There was a relatively significant issue with the lanai that was due to a complete lack of communication by DiVosta. It was resolved but DiVosta would not take responsibility for their actions at first. Eventually we settled on splitting the cost of the remediation. Otherwise, a very good experience.

Home buying and preclosing was great. Very flexible. Great sales rep and project manager. Warranty department needs a lot of help and follow thru with communication. Original punch list items still not done. Schedule a ton of vendors and none show up. I understand some but all.

Everyone we worked with through the whole home buying experience with Divosta/Pulte were and have been wonderful. We are a little disappointed with the quality of workmanship for the amount we paid. This is most apparent in the tile work but can also be seen in paint in drywall. We love our new home and appreciate the work that went into it but would have liked a little more attention to detail. Thank you.

Best Construction Manager!

  • Sandra W.

DiVosta has much to learn on controlling waste. Surprising an organization of this size doesn’t want to control costs. I get finding workers may be difficult but the various trades should be more respectful of the trade or work that was done at the site BEFORE them. We are thrilled that we had the right Construction Manager, Patrick, as the total project went far better with him at the helm. He’s is hands on and was sure to check on items and respond promptly.
