Pulte Homes Reviews in Indianapolis, IN

concerned about quality of structural materials being used in a new home built today

The whole experience from the beginning to the end was great, no stress, the representative’s made things easier.

After 2 months from the purchase I have no access to the amenities because pulte has not share my information to the HOA. The sales team are not. Interested in the customer after the contract. Ticketing on Customer webpage pending.

When we first coming everything great. During the time building the House it a lot issues- problems going on and very stressful to due with ….. After closing some projects they not done correctly. I’m talking with Manager builder but not been done until now! They said will fix that’s! Do that’s ….. after 2 1/2 months since we moved in . It not done!!!!!

I was not clearly communicated with from start to finish. I was told my home would be contingent on selling my prior home but the deadline for selling my home could be extended as needed. I was then threatened 2 months in that if I did not sell within a few weeks my home would be listed for sell. I was not told my home appraised $12,000 under listed price and an appeal was done that still was $7,000 under price and would not honor that valued appraisal. Now living in for one month I learned the community center will be shared with 3 communities, which was never explained.

Scott was very kind and informative.

House design is good, and construction seems sound. However the attention to finish detail is only adequate. Many paint splatters on floors, kitchen cabinets have multiple chips, many exterior defects. While we own the house, we're completely in the dark as to what is being done. Sprinklers have many defects, but we don't know who is responsible. Mulching is incomplete. Construction manager is unresponsive, so asking him seems useless. A specific example is the cabinets. Nick agreed to replace some doors and drawers due to numerous defects. These have been sitting in the house for over a month, and despite contacting him numerous times to schedule the repairs. On the whole, we like the house but the quality of detail work is disappointing, and the unresponsiveness of our construction manager is unacceptable. ... More

We bought a "quick move in" home. The sales team and mortgage team were amazing to deal with. I think quality of workmanship was just okay and feeling like the new home experience isnt as great as it should have been. We have a list of items that need to be fixed and should have been caught long before the walk through. Some deficiencies were fixed but some are still pending. Now after possession to be told we have to wait to resolve feels disappointing.

Unfortunately, our experience after moving into the home has been extremely disappointing and frustrating. We have encountered multiple issues with the house that required attention, and the process to get them addressed has been slow, unorganized, and lacking accountability. Communication significantly dropped off after closing. It has been very difficult to get timely responses or clear updates on the status of our concerns. In some cases, we have had to follow up multiple times just to get basic information, which should not be the responsibility of the homeowner. What’s more concerning is the lack of ownership in resolving these issues. Problems that should have been straightforward to fix have taken far longer than expected, and the overall coordination has been poor. This has taken away from what should have been an exciting and enjoyable experience of settling into a new home. Additionally, we were informed about a referral bonus at the time of closing, completed all required steps, and provided the necessary information. However, even after the expected timeline has passed, there has been no clear update, and attempts to follow up have gone unanswered. This only adds to the frustration and reflects poorly on the post-closing support. Overall, the lack of responsiveness, delays in addressing issues, and poor follow-through have made the post-move-in experience very disappointing. This is not the level of service we expected after making such a significant investment ... More

Everything was delivered on time and as promised. There were no surprise costs at the completion. Our Construction Manager Charlie, went above and beyond keepping us informed and adressed any of our concerns promptly. This made for a smooth stress free build. We are very happy with our new home. Thanks to Jason and Charlie for the guidance they provided during this build.

We've discovered several issues after moved in, it was taken cared of very slow and confusing way or not at all.

Very bad after sale

I would recommend Pulte homes.

Jayne was awesome. The mortgage team was okay, sometimes rude. Jason was okay, very helpful up until I told him I finished the review he asked me to fill out positively for him. Then he got less responsive and dismissed what to me was a glaring defect in one of their repairs.

My experience is very bad I regret choosing Pulte

We purchased a model home and we were very excited. There were things that needed to be fixed and we were told this would be taken care of so we went ahead and closed. We closed in September and most of what needed fixed still needs fixed. The communication is very slow or non-existent. We just want the things fixed so we do not have to think about it and can enjoy our new home. I know what one of Pulte's answers will be it has been to cold to paint our garage door but there have been several days this could have been done. It is very embarrassing and discouraging every time we pull into our driveway, we have to look at the mess of a garage door we have. We are the 1st house in the community so everyone has to look at our house both in our community and from the main road that passes by. The garage door is very noticeable. ... More

Christian from the Inspection team was the highlight of my experience with Pulte. Everybody - whole team was good although mortgage personnel (just a couple of them) were quite annoying, but overall - a good group!

Overall great experience from Pulte

Pretty good experience, a lot of things Pulte can work on like transparency during purchase, double checking everything paid for is installed, quality of materials, higher quality contract workers/builders, not trashing home with food drinks while building. They have fixed some complaints. Overall my children and I are happy.

They have been so helpful anytime I have a question with any maintenance.

We purchased a model home. The selling agent was very friendly at first until problems were discovered. There was cracked tile in the bathroom that was hidden from us by placement of furniture in the bathroom. We were aware of drywall issue in dining room ceiling needing to be repaired. We were not told at that time that it had been caused by a leak in the ceiling. Once we expressed our concern of not being told these issues before we signed, the selling agent became very difficult to work with. The construction supervisor was a complete flake. Getting things fixed and getting proper communication about the process was near impossible without the intervention of our realtor. In the end, after hiring our own inspector and again the intervention of our realtor, most things were made right. The process of buying this home instead of being exciting was very frustrating and stressful. Pulte mortgage and the title office used by Pulte were very helpful and quick response to any questions. Agent at the mortgage and the title company both agreed it sounded like a terrible experience on the end of the selling agent and construction supervisor. The house is wonderful, but I would never recommend someone purchasing with Pulte because of how they treat their buyers. ... More

Prompt communications, resolved any Q's or issues. Quality work. Friendly great communicator.

Maybe we got unlucky with the contractors who build our house. The workmanship did not meet our expectations for the price of the home. The build team was hard to reach and not very responsive, there were several framing issues with the home that you wouldn’t expect from a home in this price range. Landscaping was not maintained before taking ownership and the sod in the front yard is mostly dead, drainage was not considered when landscaping so anytime it rains mulch is misplaced throughout the yard. The sliding door is difficult to open and the frame surrounding it is clearly sagging. The sells team was great. ... More

The sales team was incredibly helpful throughout the purchase of my home. They explained every detail of the process and provided constant support and reassurance. The loan department was equally outstanding, polite, professional, and always ready to guide me through any challenges. Thanks to their dedication, I am now a proud homeowner!.

We were early into our house hunt and we found a Pulte new community that would be close to school and other amenities. The price was higher than expected possibly due to location. The sales rep was honest and helped us chose the upgrades that we needed. Design appointment was excellent and Abby did a fantastic job, my only feedback would be to see if weekend appointments can be arranged as we had to take day off work to make it. Work was on schedule but we felt a bit rushed at times which likley caused some build quality issues. Large crack on foundation was not expected but we were told was safe and within tolerable limits, although most of our neighbors mentiiend that they didn't have such cracks. Frmaign material looked of poor quality with numerous cracks and blemishes, specially compared to other newer builds that was happening in the same community. Again we were told that within tolerable limits, may be we just got a bad batch. Small blemishes in final finish some of them were nti taken care of, as we were told it is within contractor grade quality. But we expected a more premium finish for the price. Finally as we are two months in moving in, landscaping probably was the worst part of the build quality and it is not under warranty. Poor quality gradign with no top aoido and grass never came out in the backyard. Had to invest a fortune to fix the backyard and front yard sod. Overall, I would say a decent experience. Buy my next house o would probably custom build, as we had little control over the quality of materials and workmanship. I would likely not recommend to my friends. ... More
