Pulte Homes Reviews in Sarasota Bradenton, FL

Nice, end product, but follow-up to fix build issues, not so much.

Overall, we love our new home and everyone we dealt with from Pulte Homes was amazing. However, there were just a couple of things that “bothered” us. The first thing is that we were a little disappointed in the shortage of options in the catalog for selecting materials and finishes. We just felt for the price of the home, there should be a little more variety or more potions available to the buyer. Second, I think a little more attention should have been placed in cleaning the home when the build was completed. I noticed some sort of clear residue and white caulking on the floors throughout the home, and to spend a few days getting on the floor to scrub and remove the substances. Didn’t really expect to be doing this upon moving into our new home. Other that, everything else is great and the above mentioned “issues” are very minor and wouldn’t be show stoppers. ... More

My 'holistic' experience was excellent from start to finish. I'd recommend Pulte to anyone looking to build in a new builder community environment. My home is lovely and as close to perfect as one can be in these days of 'fast' build. My critique of the process was the inability to 'personalize' certain elements, e.g., punch a hole in a wall during the construction process (as opposed to having to wait until post finish) and to manage the installation of height-driven items, e.g., shelving placement. For example, the standard height for their clothing shelves are quite high for a short person to reach. Also, the paint selection was quite limited; it should be broadened to accommodate a wider selection of color hues. ... More

Quality of work. Helpful staff.

Would enjoy building another home with Pulte in the future.

Our home is beautiful and just the way we expected to look. Like anything else, when the dust settled we found things we didn’t like. That being said, they were pretty responsive with regards to repairs.

Great place to call home in a Pulte built house.

I was very pleased with the entire Pulte home buying process from sales to after home completion warranty follow-up. All the Pulte reps were professional and responsive. Pulte has the home building process down to a science and the execution was mostly excellence. Anything requiring follow-up was completion in a timely manner after I notified customer service. I am very happy we purchased a Pulte home

We built a Pulte home during the height of the pandemic without ever seeing it in person. At the time, travel to the other state was prohibited. The sales team and our protect manager did a great job of keeping us informed by sending frequent photos and videos to update us on the progress. We made a few changes along the way and they were very accommodating. Thank you to Pulte team - we love the house!

As a first time home buyer I was very excited when I walk in the house everything was absolutely beyond my expectation after a week we start seeing mistakes being made in the house both of my sides of the house Are sitting in water the draining system was done wrong if we have wind with the rain the lights front of the house will turn off including room downstairs hallway garage and downstairs half bathroom And there is a few other things my husband and I send A lot of emails and make tons of phone calls no respond yet we’ve been in the house almost 2 months I hope that this can be resolved soon because my husband and I we both love the way the Pulte builder houses and the whole process from the beginning till we move in in our home it was phenomenal experience I was strongly recommend everybody To buy the house from Pulte and do the mortgage through them as well . I wish that we can have somebody give us a call and tell us how we can fix this because we do have warranty on a whole house we just need to know when is going to be fixed. ... More

The build experience was amazing! My project manager was absolutely the best! Very responsive and caring to all our needs. The only issues we had were with the underwriting of the mortgage. They consistently wanted reports and information that was redundant and not necessary for the approval of the mortgage. After the initial approval, they wanted the same reports and statements over and over again for 6 months. This became very tiresome and certainly didn't help my impression of Pulte mortgage. Other than the underwriting process, it was a very good experience.

Generally pleased

My house was built on time. I a very happy with the results

We are so happy with our new home! The entire process was easy and worry-free.

The home itself and the sales person are fine, The title company was rude and unresponsive. The follow up on punch list items is hampered by covid so not fair to rate.I did find Pulte very inflexible with regard to final walk through which cost us a lot of money and time.

Trevesta is a friendly neighborhood with great neighbors.

Pulte and their whole team made this a wonderful and a stress free experience!

Made settlement 12/19/19. Walked into a filthy bug infested house and had to use master key because ours wasn’t delivered yet. Subcontractors rarely show or call for scheduled appointments. They don’t take responsibility for their work but quick to blame others. i.e.leaking window still not fixed. Warranty manager NIC is a saint without him nothing would get done post settlement. Nobody other than Nic takes responsibility and respects the homeowners. General consensus of our neighbors is similar to the above. When I told the design center what I wanted to upgrade she was rude and abrupt. Called with a question her comment was “ it is what it is”. Which is unacceptable. Hopefully this will help others in making move pleasurable. ... More

Excited to be in our new home. Many features that we truly like. Some workmanship is not in keeping with what I would have expected for the price paid. Pulte crew has been very responsive in addressing every issue and am grateful for their attention. Matt and Nic have done a great job as Pulte representatives.

There’s to many issues to deal with for a house supposed to be new. I’m still waiting for a fix of my 30 days warranty claim. No follow up. Last email I sent before holidays hasn’t been respond yet.

The entire Pulte team has been great to work with.

All phases of the home building process not only met but exceeded our expectations. Sales associate Michelle M. was patient and very professional in answering all our questions and pointing out alternatives we had not considered.. Our construction manager, Sean C. also continued this approach by patiently answering our questions and providing regular updates through out the process. A very positive experience overall.

We love our house! There were a few minor cosmetic issues but any issues we had were responded to quickly. Our construction manager Sean Crittenden was great and explained things every step of the way.

Overall good experience and a well crafted home, however, the follow up on the inevitable punch list is frustrating and diminishes the joy of new home ownership.

Entire home buying process was first class. Could not be happier with this decision.
