We love PuLte’s homes! They build an attractive home

We love the model and design we chose and the design team were so wonderful! Our home had taken almost 2 years to build, but we were in no hurry. Pools were way overpriced and forced people to opt out of getting a pool and hire a pool company after they closed. We got a pool after talking them down from 300k originally. I’m embarrassed to tell people how much I paid. Some of the sub contractors were great! Nice quality work and others should not be working for any builder. We had a wonderful experience with our project managers! They are so helpful and do their best to get issues taken care ...

Overall house is ok. Kitchen cabinets that were upgraded look like they're 10 years old. Quality is ok but finish is terrible. Scratched and look used. House is very noisy. AC hums loudly thru vent in hallway. Dishwasher and washing machine very loud. Had a few issues that were dealt with promptly. Still waiting for a few things to get fixed. Homes are VERY close to each other. Overall satisfied but not wowed by any means. Had a Lennar home prior to this. If I had to do it over I'd probably use lennar for the value vs cost

I am a senior who is alone and have decided I needed to be near family. my younger brother and his wife were very cordial to invite me down to fort myers to live near them. The stress of the situation was I am alone and did not have guidance on all this Technical stuff. My brother is my POA and Pulte would not allow him to sign for me at the closing. He lives here so it would have been convenient for everybody except apparently the title company. Thankfully Pulte had an employee who was very kind. Instead of insisting that I sit alone at a kitchen table signing documents online that I ...

This is our third home in SW Florida with three different builders. Our delivery expectations were high but were disappointed with the final product and the amount of items required to be repaired on our 30 day punch list.

Esplanade Lake Club Villas

  • John B.

The Villa is very nice. and generally happy with it. However, attention to detail for a $500K+ Home is very lacking. Found many areas of poor workmanship: Cable wire boxes not connected to the wall, light switches not level, missed paint spots, paint spatters on tile floors, sink stoppers hard to operate, m is wired electrical outlet, door hinges with paint and glue on them, door frame casing not properly aligned and many more items. Pulte was responsive to our issues but they should not have happened in the first place. Check everything you can prior to or during pre-close walk ...

Lots of bumps and bruises, but worth the wait..

We had an amazing salesperson in Gita and the last two months of our build, the project manager David was phenomenal. Initially the responsiveness to issues were slow. That changed immediately when David took the responsibility of our property. Since moving in, there are minor issues we have discovered, and I am happy to say that 90% of these have been addressed. We planned on making this our forever home, therefore finding a builder with a respected reputation to quality was important. We believe we nailed it with Pulte. We would absolutely recommend Pulte to our family and friends.

Overall our buying experience was good from our sales agent Melissa and Luisa our customer service care representative! Due to several delays and supply issues, our building time frame was heavily impacted, Communication could have been a little better. Very Disappointing was the lack of workmanship and attention to detail regarding structural walls, sparkling, painting, door frames and outlets when we moved in. Though Luisa our representative is handling these issues attentively, we are inconvenienced by contractors coming in and out to fix! If we had a proper walk through these issues could ...

Authoritarian style management

  • Alice C.

No prewarning about building process style. Lack of room for negotiation. Everything is a one way decision by builder. Limited material selection. Everything is an expensive upgrade. Customer service after moved in is slow. If I had more warning up front, might have approached building differently

Pulte Homes - Pulte requires that you buy appliances through them.

Pulte requires that you buy appliances through them. The washer and dryer were installed and no consideration was given to the installation of a countertop being placed over them. There is not sufficient ductwork, gas line and plumbing to allow working on the appliances. Pulte has yet to respond.

Marc my sales rep was fantastic keep me updated throughout the process. Still minor open issues that is why the 4 stars instead of 5, plus your pool vendor Arrogon is terrible. My suggestion is to get a new vendor so it doesn't reflect on Pulte.

Ground broke 5-21 and closing was 11-8-24. Fast, efficient, communicative and well built. Construction Managers were great and hand off from one to the other was well done. After closing everything became more difficult and communication slowed down. Clearly "warranty" work is not the same priority as gettting the house sold.

Initial contact with Pulte salesman was positive till we quickly determined he was making mistakes and telling us things that were not accurate. Met numerous workers on the job and none spoke English. Fit and finish of home was average.

Home Building Process

The construction mgr. was OUTSTANDING and made the experience positive despite the negatives. This individual is DIAMOND for Pulte. The finish work (trim, paint, hardware, cabinetry finish) is poor and very disappointing. Response time is fair; the design center and closing depts of Pulte was an awful experience. I would start those depts completely over. Inadequate time for the design review; Communication on available options (hurricane proof windows) was very disappointing that we could have had them without a massive delay; the non-HP sliding doors are poor quality and no one in Pulte ...

Nice looking house but quality was very disapppointing. We built with Centex in Bridgetown when they were independent and there was no comparison in quality. . Some of the stuff we experienced was really poor quality and should have been caught before we moved in. Doors were unsafe, window frame was damaged and cheaply fixed. Panel doors didn’t close. Etc,etc.

Thoroughly inspect home prior to closing. Have any issues addressed during the building process and before closing. Even though there is a warranty, it is much easier to have any visible issues corrected before moving in to your new home rather than afterwards. Think the quality of the finish work needs to be improved and work of contractors monitored more closely (especially tile contractors, drywall contractors, and finish (trim, paint) and held to a higher standard.
