Pulte has a good reputation to be a good home builder. After coming into the house there was a few worksmanship issues that I had to fix such as paint on the floor not cleaned up, lots of gaps in moulding that you will have caulk yourself. overall its a good company but I really wish they progress more into eco friendly material as closed cell foam instead of loose white fluff, more premium standard materials and maybe be have solar energy standard accross any community they build instead of have legislation forcing them too. Conclusion its a good buy for people on a budget.

My home is very nice and seems to be well constructed. I did not go with Pulte mortgage or homeowners insurance; therefore, that was slow process.

Happy in Odessa

We are very happy with our new Clearview model in Starkey Ranch. We have noticed a few minor issues with workmanship, but they have been responsive to many issues. Since we’re in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic things are at a bit of standstill for warranty work, but I’m hopeful once things ramp back up they’ll get everything taken care of.

Some items are poor quality items

By the time you see your house finished, you are amazed as it’s a dream coming true. By the time you settle in and start living inside it, you start noticing several aspects about the material and workmanship that could have been done better, such as stains all over the walls and flooring, hand marks from the workers that do not go away, poor quality painting that gets off easily and is sticky, small holes left unattended and so on. It’s a bummer to notice those items only after living on it, which starts to be a life of fixing minor issues.

Need sound deadening

I have noticed that adjoining bedrooms or bathroom need more sound deadening material between the drywall. Sounds are easily transmitted and heard without any buffer.

First New Home

Having been in construction all my life I have seen good craftsmanship and mediocre craftsmanship. Pulte has really good craftsmanship for this level of home. Well built, priced just right and personnel that really cares about the customer and the product they deliver. We are extremely satisfied and we recommend Pulte to everyone we talk to. Special thanks to Brian Hower for delivering a home that was stress free and making us feel like we were his only customer during the whole process.

We had the best experience possible! From the very first moment we spoke to Trenton in the sales office, we knew we wanted a Pulte Home! Tyler, our Field Manager, was an absolute pleasure to work with. They both made the entire process effortless and enjoyable for us! We absolutely love our home!

We Love Our Pulte Villa

  • Roy T.
  • Verified HomeBuyer

  • Apollo Beach, FL

We purchased a new Villa and feel it was a great decision for us. We owned our own home for 31 years and the Villa is the perfect option for us. The rooms are spacious and the materials such as quartz countertops, wood cabinets and other building materials are great quality for the price. Pulte offers many options to customize the Villa. We are excited that the best benefit for us is that all outside maintenance is included in the HOA fee. We are actually paying less for our HOA fee than we paid in exterior home maintenance for our single family home. Our Villa neighborhood owners consist of ...

Pulte Homes - The experience didn’t feel personal.

  • Riddhi P.

The experience didn’t feel personal. For the amount we are paying for the house I expected better communication and follow up from Pulte’s end. I also expected better results from the vendors you used. It felt as if they didn’t care and our home wasn’t really a priority for them with how careless they were with some of their work. Pulte could do a better job with following up on your vendors worksmanship.

This house is the 3rd house my wife and I built in the past 14 years and this has been by far the easiest, best experience out of all. Our CM was super responsive. He and I spoke almost every day during which time he kept me informed of the timeline, the process and answered all our questions. I visited the job site every day, sometimes twice and many times I would see our CM (Branden) in the area and stop and speak with him. He was always available and willing to talk for a bit and answer our questions and concerns. We trusted him and Pulte with our home build and we are more than happy ...

Bad jobs, less but very expensive upgrade options

  • Sandip R.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • November 10, 2019
  • Lutz, FL

Pulte hires bad contractors who do bad jobs. They don't follow Field Manager's instructions. Field Managers are overloaded and they don't have enough bandwidth to monitor quality of work. Pulte's internal quality team does pathetic job and that's why they certify home with so many issues which homeowner need to point out. Before closing I had marked several items but those were not fixed so I accepted several flaws as it is, just to ensure no further delays in moving-in.

It was a pleasure dealing with Pulte. It was a one stop shop. They provided me with mortgage, insurance and title. I didn't have to go crazy looking for everything. The home is beautiful and whatever issues I had after closing they are very quick to correct.
