Pulte Homes Reviews in Minneapolis St. Paul, MN

Select a ready to move inventory homes, and we are very happy to do so instead of waiting for 8-10 months and deal with uncertainty of supply chain, interest rate and all other issues.

Ryan is very good at his job, professional, knowledgeable, mild mannered and pays attention to get you to the ending satisfied. Pulte Spreads Ryan out to thin afterwards of closing and it's difficult to get him back or a common connection to continue the same process without repeat nagging on misc. punch lists items.

My husband and I were so excited to move into our new-build Pulte home, but the excitement was stolen from us when the week we closed, as the place was a mess. Scratched floors, splattered paint on the floors and countertops, direr windows, missing pieces to blinds, loose siding on the house, and a few others. Pulte cares about their quality, but the contractors they hire do not. We have lived here for a month now, and they are still fixing a few things, but the home is beautiful, exactly what we envisioned, and we look forward to making this our life-long home.

The buying experience was exceptional as Pulte bent over backwards for us. Once closed, after the initial week of ownership the response to house issues has been pretty much nonexistent. Although we are truly happy with our home Pulte’s workmanship is only good.

I moved in before three weeks and within three weeks I had issues to start with Garage door making noise , cabinets in kitchen were coming off from the holder ,big crack in the master suite counter top. Yesterday I turned my AC and it didnot work . AC tech has come and identified that there is a gas leak and AC won’t work unless they fix it. This means they need to cut open the entire home drywall to find out the location of leak and then re work . This is not definitely an exp a first time home buyer would expect. I would not recommend Pulte

Everything was above and beyond

The builder communicated well with emails updating me throughout the process. They continue too also with a few escrow items that are needed.

Everyone that we worked with have been outstanding

Purchased primarily for the location and immediate development/community. Quality build and construction with a few over the top features often dictated by over zealous local inspectors. As a spec home, Pulte limits your choices and say in much of the design but this is standard. These are not custom homes. Overall build, fit and finish is very good. Minor issues have been addressed promptly. Final move in readiness also very good but disappointed in condition of garage floor as there were lots of spots of plaster mud and other debris that must now be removed once the weather warms. And will require us to empty the garage for them to do this! ... More

great work - would recommend

Overall, the experience was fair to good, but there are areas that left us underwhelmed. The team at the sales office was professional, responsive, and friendly. Their genuineness was refreshing and made making the purchase easy. They felt like they were genuinely advocates for us in the process, which was a definite plus. However, the volume of homes being completed simultaneously in our development meant that many items went unnoticed or things occurred that needed to be communicated but were not, which was frustrating. Frequently emails were responded to quickly, but then the action steps needed for resolution required a follow-up email or call on our part to set things in motion. Overall, Pulte uses an effective home-building process, and the people working for them seem genuine and honest. However, because their business is based on the volume of homes they build, you may get a different quality control or attention to detail than you might expect when purchasing a home at this price range. ...

My experience as a first-time home buyer was amazing from the moment that I walked into the sales office! I was greeted by the sales agent Jacqueline and immediately felt comfortable zero pressure or sales tactics, didn't even consider looking at any other properties I chose the model on this property but Jacqueline did want me to see other homes on the property before I made my decision, I appreciated the fact that she took the time for that before just jumping on closing the sale of a higher priced unit. still chose the higher price and I love the home and property highly recommend Pulte Homes ...

Professional and efficient staff throughout the whole process, understanding of and accommodating to a buyers needs

I had a great experience working with pulte. Things were done on time and I really love my home. My sales representative was awesome. Not enough words to express how wonderful she was. I will not hesitate to work with pulte again.

share your experience in five words

I love my new home!

Agent was not educated on PA content, nor had the ability to adjust PA to fit purchasers needs. Substance in the home is poor in quality and finishes that I feel should be improved. Response from construction manager was perfect. However he seemed to be limited to what could be corrected and improved on. Again, finishes by Pulte should be improved on so that new owners are not immediately putting thousands of dollars into finishing appropriately. Appliances that were not included in purchase price should be included. I know for a fact that negotiations have been made to incude missing appliances in purchase price. This seems to be a small savings for Pulte at the risk of customer dissatisfaction. ... More

We love our new Pulte home. The entire process went really smooth and we are highly satisfied with everything. Customer service is excellent and they have been really prompt in addressing our questions/concerns

We signed for our new home in March of 2022 and we’re told our home would be ready in the spring….March or April of 2023. Then we were rushed to close in December which only benefited Pulte. Outside brick was installed the day of the closing.

Working with Pulte Homes to build my home was a great experience. Everyone was very helpful through the whole process. Keeping me informed. My build was even a head of schedule by 2 full months!

its great The home have alot of space but there are things that is very poor quality. The poor quality are 1. Windows. some windows leaks and creates draft air, call pulte to come look at the issue they said it normal, I am an home owner and fixed houses every now and then so I know when something is wrong, but pulte will not admit it and said air draft from windows are normal, pulte even mention that their windows are mid grade, to me it is the cheapest on the market. Even menards $200 windows are better and doesnt create air draft, they will not fixed the issue so i'll have to dealt with it myself by buying windows insulation to stop the air draft. if it is not stop your heating bill will up the roof. Also, the doors have draft air from the bottom, this will also have to be address by the owner. Last time i check, menards doors have magnet door insulation so when it closed it slap in tight and will not lead air. I have to buy insulation pads from menards to fix it. 2. Cabinets are cheap considering that is it a 600k house, I would preferred all cabinets to have a good craftmanship and at least have soft closed. 3. Wall Paint, pulte used is the cheapest on the market. Just by touching you can feel the cheapness of the paint and when you put your hands on the wall, they are dust and white stuff. also, the house is very dirty and dusty like no one lives there for months. The floor have paint spot and pulte also mention it is normal which i have to clean it. Basement also very dusty on the floor and I did mention this to pulte they said its normal. Why is this normal it is a brand new house. shouldn't it be clean? 4. The wood studs are 24" apart consider that it is a expensive house it should have been 16". Just my opinion . Lastly, the only good thing about the house that actually cost 600k are the appliance and countertop. 5. Interior doors are cheap. it is hollows consider that the house cost 600k should have been solid doors. The price isnt that much difference as I check at menards. I would not be a customer to pulte in the future. ... More

My biggest problem was the metal cover over the sewer drain in front bedroom

Robb provides fantastic customer service and did a great job throughout the sales process. Updates from the field manager were too infrequent (3 emails in 8 months) and we typically had very minimal notice for any of the build quality meetings. The field supervisor provided great customer service during the final stages of the build. Warranty service is quick to respond and schedule trades to repair.

Very happy with our new home

With numerous curved or bowed walls, workmanship is not the word I would use. This obviously shows that the job supervisors were not observing the quality of work being preformed. Communication was poor form the site supervisors. The home buying experience was great. Robb did a wonderful job and kept us in the loop on everything.
