Pulte Homes Reviews in Minneapolis St. Paul, MN

Only minor issues have been found so far (screws not fully screwed in, bent drawer tracks). Overall very happy with the home and excited to raise a family here.

Great project management!

Was mostly satisfied with the building process. The finishing was not not the best. Some issues although minor were not up to expectation. More effort needed on fine details especially when a home is new.

Our agent and construction team were very responsive and made our dreams come true. Thank you to everyone that made this possible in Lakeville.

We love our home, I should start with that. We are so happy with the location, lot, and upgrades that we chose. The floorplan is perfect for our growing family. However, we had many issues along the way. Our PM was difficult to deal with and did not want to help us with problems that his contractors caused (hole cut in the ceiling, cafe light installed in the wrong spot). This led to a lack of trust and shaken confidence in Pulte and our PM. Thankfully, everything turned out alright after we had to fight for these issues to be resolved.

Never recommend to any one. It has been a nightmare no updates, poor communication and very poor quality

There are so many issues ranging from poor construct to mortgage process.

We loved the Pulte process for building our new construction home. Lamar in sales, Ari in the loan processing and Jim the project manager are amazing. Thank You for the responsiveness to any and all of our questions and your patience with us thru the process. We love our new house,

Pulte had a great promotional sale going on at the time of purchase, and I believe it changes every month. The 3 builder meetings (beginning, middle, and right before closing) are a wonderful way to see how things are shaping up in your future home. The builder will go through a checklist of what is being done and so on. There are also the design and the low voltage/electrical meetings. I enjoyed both of these meetings even though they added quite a bit to our total. I recommend you have an idea of how much you are willing to spend prior to the meetings as these “extra” items are very tempting. During the build process, our salesman was replaced with a different salesman and the new salesman did a fantastic job of keeping us updated with the build. In the end, I felt Pulte rushed the closing a bit as there were items that still needed to be touched up, i.e. ceiling had 1/2” chip, countertops also had chippings, garage door malfunctioning, touch-free sink had a disconnected wire, masonry was defective, baseboard joints had gaps, and a few more I can’t remember. I know these are minor defects but should have been caught and fixed prior to turnover. Do not be alarmed, however. Pulte was responsive after submitting the warranty work on all of these. They are great at making sure they stand by their work. Highly recommended builder. ... More

Very easy process for prospective homebuilders

Everything went smoothly and on schedule

Very responsive team in communication but action is a bit slow maybe for valid reasons. Just a few items we are not happy with—we have to walk into a dark garage to find the light switch. The dining area light can only be switched from one side, We may have to spend extra to have an electrician rewire these light switches . The grading around the house draws water in, instead of away, this is being reviewed by construction manager. Good overall.

Various plan to choose, tons of customization options. friendly staff to answer all our questions. On Time delivery. Proud to be part of Pulte family.

The closing procedure had its hiccups to no fault of mine. I am still waiting to be contacted by Pulte's outside vendors to correct a couple issues. Pulte has responded and fixed what they could do. All in all, I love my home.

Would be a plus if Pulte hired some carpenters who know what a framing square was. Walls are so out of square it is hard not to cast your eyes on the defect. One short wall between doorways is 11 inches in length and 1inch out of square from end to end. It is a common problem through out the house, Very disappointing. Also a damaged washing machine that should have never been accepted or installed flooded our home and ditto for the dysfunctional water softener that re flooded our home a week later. There were other issues that have been addressed such as failing to cap the gas line to the dryer after replacing the damaged flooring in the laundry room. This is not a favorable opinion of the Pulte Brand. ... More

I am satisfied with the house.

The process with Pulte was the easiest out of the other four houses I have built, no delays on the main house and good communication from the construction team.

We had a great experience with Pulte!

I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the house-it just did not feel like it was cleaned after the work was completed. The front entryway and garage were stained with footmarks and junk.

With designing the home there were too many things that were "upgrades", which most were quite costly. The model that is available does not show the real product as almost everything is an upgrade. Its also annoying that you have to wait for sod in order to add a larger concrete pad in the back. Late July and no sod, so our concrete pad needs to wait another month to complete. My AC fan is loud and needs to be on at all times in order to keep the house cool. I'm sure I should have upgraded that too. Otherwise, it is nice house, great floor plan and great staff to work with. No complaints with them. ... More

Great Floor Plans with Quality Materials!

Very pleased with my home overall but I opted out of buying irrigation because my yard is so small that watering should not be an issue. Unfortunately the turf company laid poor quality sod over completely unprepared clay. Under the sod are multitudes of rocks and construction debris. The grass turned brown within 24 hours and now a week later, after heavy rain and copious amounts of water from a number of sprinklers I have purchased, there appears to be some hope that it may turn green. I have spent seven days outside, muddy, wet, bug bitten and suffering a shoulder injury from pulling a hose around from the one spigot on my house in an effort to resurrect this lawn because Pulte washes their hands of any responsibility for sod once installed. If it fails... it’s completely on the homeowner regardless of the quality of sod that the turf company throws down. Fresh, good quality sod, laid carefully over well prepared ground does not turn brown and appear dead within a day. This sod was not freshly cut and was hastily rolled out. Two and three inch gaps between pieces and large air pockets under the sod have prevented it from thriving. All I can do is continue to water and hope it survives because Pulte is not interested. ...

Great experience overall in large part due to Bob and Jermain, the team at our neighborhood.

I was very pleased with the whole process altogether. The folks at Pulte that I worked are quite knowledgeable about what they are doing. Will recommend to anyone to use Pulte if considering building.

Overall they’re ok
