Pulte Homes Reviews in Orlando, FL

Our home was built with quality materials and top-notch workmanship. We are so grateful for the finished product, and the entire team that helped get us to this point. Our Easley model, with structural changes to add a Flex room and additional bathroom, was the perfect choice for our growing family!

We had an amazing experience working with Sandra (sell manager) and Ryan the builder, and later on with Alex. All three were very professional and trustworthy. Fixing small and large problems immediately. And we had some large issues but they were fixed stress free. Awesome job, people! Love my new home!

My mom bought a modeled at Winding Meadows in apopka and we received the house not in yhe quality expected. New flooring had paint stain, electrical wiring to the front door has issues, front porch pavers unsteady and coming apart, we contacted the office and the fix the issues. For the past 2 months, we received the water bill almost $350. When we investigated the issue further come to find out we are watering the HOA side of the lawn as well and that has a leak. There’s been issues after issues. It’s making it hard to enjoy this house.

Don't close on a Pulte house if you have ANY outstanding issues! It is impossible to get them resolved after they have your money. We have been waiting 2 months for them to replace sod that was dead when we closed. They won't fix the creaky floor until our one year mark (or if they fix it now, they won't fix any more creaking caused by settling in the future). They claim all the uneven pavers on our lanai are "within tolerance". Ditto for the uneven floor in the kitchen, which had to be leveled by the flooring installers we hired after closing. We should have worried when the wrong second floor materials were delivered AND INSTALLED before anyone noticed (they then had to rip out a whole section and redo it - probably causing the creaking floors now!). There are little things too - both other new home builders we have purchased from provided touch up paint, but not Pulte! The upgraded toilet handles that came when we upgraded faucets are too big for the toilets and are marking up the lids! We thought this was a more luxury builder, but they are not. Be very diligent about checking up on the house during construction and make sure there are no outstanding issues when you close! ... More

Ask for the most recent HOA Bylaws and rules regarding Architectural Changes prior to making purchase. Inquire as to what the common charges cover and the amenities included, i.e. number of pools, tennis courts, playgrounds, etc. and the ratio compared to the number of homeowners in the community.

My experience with Pulte Home has been great. Alex, the construction manager is ALWAYS available to answer questions, resolve any issues that come up and his work is perfect. Absolutely the best experience buying a new home.

I am very disappointed and dissatisfied with the entire process with Pulte. The home was built in poor condition. I had to submit many warranty claims. They are responsive but considering i have only been in my house a month its horrible. At closing i was given keys that didn't work. I couldn't sleep in my room for the first week due to issues that weren't taken care of. Overall if you decide to go with Pulte please inspect and follow through. If i had to do it again i would not purchase with Pulte.

Before you move in everyone seems very attentive. Of course all they are constantly asking you to do is give them a high score on the survey. Once you take ownership good luck getting any assistance with issues. I've been in my house 5 weeks and still have blue tape on walls for problems that have yet to be corrected. Text messages go unanswered. Scheduled repairs are no showed leaving me at home all day wasting my time. Master bath shower leaks water all over the floor. This is a known problem that they acknowledge that can be fixed. My question is why aren't you building it right the first time? I really don't want to sound like a complainer. Overall we do like our new home but for the money we have spent these things are frustrating. If you want perfect surveys you need to earn them not just ask for them. ... More

I am happy with the location, the house is very nice and funcional. The quality is first class. The spaces are very good in the bedrooms, it has many closets to store things, the pool area is very good. The kitchen is beautiful with excellent space for living and cooking. Everything is excellent

Home was not clean after closing; never received a welcome package with information pertaining to water, electricity, HOA, etc. Loan was sold to an extremely horrible mortgage company without notice.

I relocated to Florida from New York. The Pulte Home is the Ideal Home for living in with Love and Peace of our family to reside in. We will introduce our friends and relatives with Pulte Home when they want to relocate to Weslyn Park. Michael

The prop was was good in overall but don’t. Triste them if they say that they’re going to take care of any situation that it’s not good and they take you till the signing day, after that they will leave you with the issue and never answer or take care!!!! We have a big issue with our Ac unit, they promised to take care after the signing day, we was making following to the situation since 3 weeks before to the closing day. They never repaired before and they promised take care of it after the closing and they didn’t and never answer again!. Extremely hard to communicate with them, well imposible because stil we’re trying to contact somebody to follow up and it’s not possible. ... More

We had a great experience. I would certainly recommend Pulte to others. Raymond, our construction manager, was particularly great. He was attentive to detail, listened to our requests, and answered all of our questions.

Construction manager communication was awesome and prompt response. Expected more from the community and base on the price tag of the houses they can do better on the gardens and the entire community look. Big mistake not having a community pool and club house, high price tag houses that doesn’t reflect their value, looks like another regular group of houses

We spent A LOT of money on our Pulte home and we've had countless corrections and fixes that have had to be made from the flooring and walls to the A/C. The warranty department has been pretty responsive to issues post closing and has done a pretty good job there, but our construction manager did not. We had a TON of issues to resolve just prior to closing and several had to be postponed until after closing due to lack of responsiveness in taking care of them in time. Worst of all we were lied to about being able to build a vinyl privacy fence. When we showed that it was not disallowed in the HOA covenant, their response was to add it to the covenant rather than just allow us to build the fence we wanted and make the residents of our community happy. Now when the homeless or random people pass by (as myself and my neighbors have seen), there is nothing to block their view into our yard and house. ... More

Finishing of my room garage was not appropriate. I found so many holes in garage and surfaces are uneven. Before closing I met ryan home supervisor. We found some small issues during inspection and he told me we will take care of everything. I request him to move outlet from bottom to top for TV. He promised us, he will definitely take care of that.It was very easy job. After closing of home I give him access of my home for few weeks to finish outlet job. After certain day he didn’t answer my call or text msg. He is lying to me and didn’t fulfill my request till today. Please advice everyone before closing make sure everything taking care. Because afterwards they won’t care. ... More

We have encountered numerous issues with our experience, which has been disappointing. While there has been some response to basic warranty items, other promises remain unfulfilled. Some of the repair work is just not satisfactory. There is no quality assurance being done. We have been occasionally lied to leading to frustration and a lack of confidence in you. Although we remain hopeful that things will improve, at this time, we are not satisfied with the current state of affairs. We sincerely hope that these outstanding issues will be addressed promptly and that future interactions will meet the expectations that were initially set. ... More

New condo, and after two weeks of closing, major leak in the house required the builder to open up sheet rock and fix the HVAC leak. Mold has started to grow and we could not use the house for 2 weeks. No courtesy or compensation for the trouble caused. Horrible.

Totally satisfied excelent xxx xxx xxx

This is my second new Pulte home and once again I’m very excited and pleased with my new home and community.

- The real estate agent was excellent in his service (Mr. Chris). - The bank was very bad; they were still asking for documents on the day of closing (I don't understand). - The materials are by the type of property purchased. - The workmanship was not good, as we had flooding in the yard and alley almost every time it rained. We requested a solution, but nothing was done (we are worried that it might get into the house). - We have some minor issues related to painting, drywall, and electrical work, but they have not been resolved either.

We went through multiple construction managers in our time building our home and it seems to really make a difference in the quality. One manager was more than happy to make sure the home was to our liking while the other provided resistance on almost every request we made. Things that you'd assume were standard.

We had a couple of items to be addressed, they were addressed in a very timely manner and with great effort, professionalism and care for our needs!

Pulte wants every customer to have a great experience in the purchase of a brand new home. They go over and beyond for the customer

Overall the experience was extremely positive especially for first time homebuyers. The only complaint I had was the deadline process for inspections holding up the build. The initial projected date for close ended up being 5 months late due to forms needed by the city holding up stages of the build, however during that time the sales and construction teams kept in direct communication and made sure we knew what was happening at all points. Our construction manager Ray was an amazing communicator, and took the time to make sure we were happy with every single addition to the house. Couldn't have asked for a better team. ... More
