Pulte Homes Reviews

Complete lack of craftsmanship and communication. Pulte will not fix any issues (and there are a lot) until you email them every day for months, and even then the process to fix issues is exhausting.

A lot of things are still pending theyvsaid they will honor each and every item all items are outstanding and no response to new issues.

The experience was horrible. The loan and home insurance was terrible with several different and unexplained quotes, unanswered calls, and errors. There is zero quality of workmanship and materials. Everything is damaged in some way from improper handling and no care taken to prevent damage. Some examples are : driveway pavers have paint and roof mortar, unevenly framed walls that have humps and curves, paint and caulk on the tile floors and grout, dull paint finish on my kitchen cabinetry, scratches on my windows, stains on my master tub, unlevel window sills by up to an inch from corner to corner, improperly centered thermostats, AC vents and returns, crooked bathroom mirrors, improperly pitched gutters holding water, expansion foam all over on the roofing tile and siding of the house, and numerous painting/sheetrock work. I don't trust this builder. These issues all should have been seen and addressed prior to closing by their project manager. The builder emphasizes that the build process is closely monitored for quality assurance. Its apparent to me no one was monitoring my build. I expected better quality for the amount paid, not value. I am unhappy with the way the home was built. ... More

The day of our celebration walk we noticed there were holes and bad paint job all over the house. Shoe moldings had dirt and damages.....our quartz kitchen counter too was damaged during construction so was our fidge. It had scratch marks all over. There were damages to some planks on our LVP flooring during construction. Kitchen cabinets had scratch marks, our front yard's grass is missing....steps on stairs are loose and hazardous! The garage door looked second hand with damages all over and the front entrance needed to be painted it had dirt and holes oll over. The loft door is missing screen doors. When we raised these issues with the onsite project manager, we were told this is not a custom built home. It was shocking to us. Even if it's not a custom built home we paid for a newly constructed home with new appliances NOT damaged home and damaged appliances. At least fix these issues or return some money to us so we can get these things fixed ourselves. Before closing the house we were told some of these things would get fixed, especially the floor and the missing screens for our loft doors, it's been almost 2 months since we moved into our new home and none of these things got fixed. I will never buy a home again from Pulte. I don't recommend Pulte homes. ... More

This is our third new build experience and by far the worst. From the very beginning sales experience all the way through to our closing and now into our one year warranty experience. It started with the sales agent making promises, in writing, that she couldn’t actually fulfill. After escalating the issue internally I was told by the sales agent’s manager, and I quote, “if I wasn’t happy, why did I choose Pulte”? After the build started I personally found many quality issues that were overlooked by the PM. This was most likely due to Pulte choosing the cheapest sub contractors. Additionally, our closing date was pushed three times and I even had to call the city myself to get updates as to why we were failing inspections. After closing we still had many issues. We even had painters in the house the day after closing still working. We knew going into closing that we had several windows cracked and they would be replaced when they arrived. I would assume we would be prioritized over the houses still in construction, that was a bad assumption… Finally, after being in the house for a few months we noticed the lighting doesn’t even match the plans. ...

Totally irresponsible delivery, so many things are missing or not done properly. Not at all satisfied with the quality and delivery of house. So many things in list that are not done correctly not even Able to keep track. I was expecting high standards from Pulte but none of them met. I have worked 20 house or more to figure out the quality issues before closing but they rushed the closing and with out fixing all the issues. NOT AT ALL SATISFIED even basic things not done correctly. They did pilot of new and inexperienced field manager with my house that's why the house was in disarray. Whole process caused me so much pain physically and mentally. ... More

There is no supervision on the job site and the superintendent lies to you and says no its ok that is the way Pulte does there work! Then when the blue tape walk though comes around simple things like doors closing correctly don't then you wait 14 days for someone to come and fix them. the bath tub is so scratched up the worker said he cant do any more> Iam waiting another 14 days for someone to tell me the something I cant take out the scratches

No good at all

From the start till now not a good experience at all. I would not of done this again and I would of used another builder and went another way to get a new home

Look elsewhere if you are interested in buying a great home !!!

We have had many of issues from start to current. Plumbing lines switched, gas leaks, framing and many of issues. Take the bad reviews serious.

Never again! Rushed cheap low quality

1. Vents making noise and pulte says they cant do anything. Cant sit in that room and do anything. 2. Bath flushs, and shower making so much noises that you hear on whole house. If someone goes bathroom in night, flush can wake others in different room. Bad Bad design 3. Staircases railing making noise, Windows put on wrong spots 4. After closing super bad customer service.

The quality of the house and the finishes were extremely bad, in addition to the numerous delays and the closing date it was postponed several times, causing a lot financial damage.

We’re forced to close on unfinished home with a promise that everything will be taken care. But was never finished. Initially kept sending people to fix stuff and then stopped responding and when asked for upper management. Sales agent said she is not going to give upper management contact. She said she is not authorized to give upper management contact. Project manager always kept making excuses and telling us that he is going to fix everything. House is graded so badly neighbors water running into out lot and staying wet all the time. Build 6 ft wall without telling us about it at pre-construction meeting. Project manager told us 2 weeks before closing that they will be building a wall with stairs access to the back yard but stairs were missing. After closing started denying saying that they are not going to build stairs. My 6 year old son fall from the wall yesterday. Luckily he was not hurt besides little scratches. There is no safety around the wall at all. I have tried contacting but no response and also wrote reviews on google Fb and other places. ... More

Our experience with pulte mortgage was anything but pleasant. Our loan processor was always difficult to reach and constantly misplaced documents during the process. The last week of closing they were completely non existent and added much more stress to the process than was needed. Our loan processor would never reply back to our calls and emails.

Very bad experience buying my first house, there are already 4 repairs in less than 2 months, 2 water leaks, washing machine, and clogged drain, I want someone to contact me I no longer feel safe I want them to do a general inspection

Terrible, worst home we have ever built, terrible quality, over promise under deliver, just awful!

I have nothing good to say about Pulte - they are currently building homes as fast as they can and cutting corners left and right. We closed on a house that was filthy with many issues that they promised to address as soon as we closed - joke was on us for not refusing to close and believing that they were telling us the truth. As soon as you close, they disappear. My advice? Run.

In the first week our house flooded because someone disconnected the drain in the wall by the laundry. We’ve had very little response or help to get the damage finished. From no show appointments to miscommunication. We still have sections of our house we can’t use.

Not enough workers or quality of workers. Rushed to close even though stuff was not finished. Terrible workmanship for the price paid. Misleading. Would not recommend.

Buying a home with Pulte was the worst experience I have ever had. I we’

I wish i could give no stars but the review has to be submitted and so gave that one. The cheapest quality of home for the price paid and staff makes sure to give you enough pressure from the time dealing with sales agent to closing and beyond. Never again, can find such dreadful experience.

I can’t even begin to explain the issues that I’ve had with my home. Pulte apparently uses day laborers that are unskilled to do work in the houses because the workmanship is horrible and there’s no accountability and apparently no one following up with anybody on the quality of work that is being produced. Very disappointing

Even on settlement day,there was no preparation for delivery of house,but only the words of the person in charge of of the field and waited,but until now,it has not been fulfilled. 1. It has been more than a month since the water from master bedroom has leaked out and has been shown to the site manager, but there has been no contact yet. 2. I asked to check up garage’ outlet. But he said to me as it. That is it. So I personally called electrician for fixing 3.From the beginning,I made issued that the tree in front of house is something like die.. he said that it is ok. I wait but die. 4.Even though the lawn was damaged after installing the fence in the backyard,it has not repaired until now 5.Even thought it was the day of settlement,some jobs were completed,not clean house, not clean window that there is lots of silicon and dirty one. 6.Also there are so many main issues that I can not write.. Anyway I had very very worst experience and I never recommend Pulte homes. Before moving. I lived at Pultes home but 100 percent different now I can not understand why changed too much.
