New home buying in Florida

  • Anonymous
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 30, 2023
  • Valrico, FL

Bought a new home in Florida for just under a half million dollars. The interior of the home displays the worst level of “finish” work I have seen. Low quality materials, rough finish work on most baseboards and door and window frames. Entire kitchen and three full baths contained zero handles or pulls on any cabinets and drawers. House was still very dirty from construction debris when we took possession. A full month has passed and we are still finding things that need replacement or fixing. Not a good reflection on this builder.

Worst service .you pushed me to close my home promising that all issues I pointed out during pre closing orientation will be addressed immediately.now it’s more than a month I closed my home but no one took care of the issues .plumbing,pests,cabinets doesn’t close ,lot of ants and musquitoes due to improper sealing ,commode paint peels off.poor quality materials used and construction quality is below average,carpet padding is not proper and nails hurt me whenever I walk on them .it’s a nightmare with pulte

Service response for issues is not as it supposed to be

  • Rahul A.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • August 04, 2023
  • Riverview, FL

Home buying experience is good but Service response for issues is not as it supposed to be. Since we moved in none of the pending issues are resolved even after 2 months of closing. Didn’t feel like it’s not the correct value for our money. Construction quality can be better as well.

No good very bad

  • Cedric A.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • July 06, 2023
  • Riverview, FL

Our experience with the sales office and design center was very good. However, from the moment the building process began we discovered somethings were not the same as discussed in the sales office. We were not advised that outdoor kitchen pre-wire was an option, even though we requested it. We found no issues in the block and framing process when building our home, but when the wall went up it appeared that all hell had broke loose. We found almost every door in the house had a measurement issue, large gaps between doorframes and walls, builder had to use quarter round to correct the problem ...

We had a smooth experience from start to finish with our new Pulte home. We’ve been in our home for two months and have had zero issues. Our construction manager was very communicative throughout the building and closing process, and addressed any issues immediately. We’re very happy with our new home.

Horrible workmanship and issues after issues

I will never buy another Pulte home. From the start of the build to the end we had numerous issues. Only after moving do you truly discover how bad they built this house.

Zach is a real class act!!! My first experience working with Zach was the build quality pre-closing orientation as we purchased a quick move-in and I have to say this work is really cut out for him. He is not only knowledgeable but people oriented.

  • Jeffrey K.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • June 07, 2023
  • Riverview, FL

You can tell Zach really loves his job because even after moving in he's more than helpful and goes out of his way. Teresa provides excellent customer service in the sales center. She is extremely responsive around the clock! You can tell she really values her work. The quality of our home is unlike anything we've experienced before. What comes standard in a Pulte home is what other builders consider upgrades. I would do it over and over again :)

Overall our experience was great from contract to close. There are a few minor workmanship issues with trim, doors and paint. Paint on light fixtures in bathroom even though it was on our punch list. We are still very happy with our purchase and feel it is well built and great value!

Great home but missed the details.

  • Cynthia D.

  • Valrico, FL

I was fortunate to fall upon a move-in ready home in my preferred location. I feel the price was commensurate with market value and Laura was very professional and responsive in the sales process. The floor plan is ideal for my needs but I think the builders rushed to complete and lost quality in the details of the construction. Pulte has a great respiration in my area and I am overall very satisfied with my new home.

Sale process was quick, but too many issues with quality

  • Denny E.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • May 10, 2023
  • Land O' Lakes, FL

While the buying experience was quick, and was given update on progress regularly, the quality of the house was poor, and it is taking forever to get the issues fixed. There were around 20 issues from which include some safety concerns. I am still frustrated following up on half of the pending issues 1.5 months into occupancy. My suggestion to buyers, don't close until all the issues are fixed.

Great Sales Team, Good Construction, Okay Customer Care

Overall we are very happy with our new Pulte home. From the start the Sales rep, Lindsey, was a joy to work with. She always provided good information and was responsive to emails and requests. Even after her part was done with, she still kept in contact and made sure things any concerns were addressed. The building process also went pretty smoothly. Not being in the construction business, it was hard to assess the timeframe on the progress. We received regular updates but that didn't tell me if we were 2 days, 2 weeks or 2 months from completion. I'd recommend including an ...

Loan Specialist

  • Latisha S.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • May 03, 2023
  • Valrico, FL

Our loan agent was by far the rudest person, she displayed absolutely no professionalism at all! She refused to speak with us avoiding 95 percent of emails and calls to her! Prayers to anyone who as experienced such dismissiveness, she literally treated us as if our business was not worth her time.

Hi Latisha, thanks for taking the time to write this review and let us know how we can improve. We apologize that our communication has not been up to par and will certainly share these comments with our local leadership team.

POORLY BUILT OVER PRICED HOME

  • Lequan L.
  • Verified HomeBuyer
  • April 27, 2023
  • Riverview, FL

Waited over a year for a home promised to be delivered in 6 to 8 months, only to be subjected to the sub-standard materials, sub-standard workmanship, overlooked construction discrepancies by the construction managers, paid upgrades that were never installed, lack of care or concern during the warranty period with NO follow-up to inquiries. We were also provided a poor turn-over of the home; not provided with any administrative access to our touch panels, nor the garage door keypad (which should not have been installed). We were also never provided any drawings of our home. With every newly ...
