We bought the Parklane home and the buying process was easy. The home came out beautifully and we couldn't be more happier. Our project manager was always available to answer any questions or concerns.

Great Experience

  • Estero, FL

I had a very positive experience from first tour through and after move in. My sales consultant, Justin, was very knowledgeable and knowledgeable. The Design Center staff worked with me to stay in budget, while incorporating the features I most wanted. I never felt pressured to buy upgrades. My field manager, Sofia, was incredible. She was so supportive, attentive, and worked very hard to meet my move in date requirements. I am very grateful to both Justin and Sofia for everything they did to make this as stress free as possible. The end result - I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY NEW HOME!

Not a great experience

  • Gregory D.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • July 21, 2020
  • Orlando, FL

We do not have any issues with our sales consultant. The issue is in the quality of the materials used and the workmanship. We are also having a difficult time in getting Pulte to respond to repairs that are required. I would recommend that you tour a completed home prior to committing and do not use the models as your guide for materials and workmanship.

We are disappointed to hear that you did not have an excellent experience and have unresolved concerns with your new home. We would be happy to assist and would appreciate if you could please send your full name and address to customersupport@pultegroup.com. Thank you. ^AS

Horrible Experience

  • Jamila H.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • July 21, 2020
  • Louisville, KY

I just want to start out by saying I was excited about my new home when I first started this process. I am very disappointed and traumatized by your company. First, problem was with your lender and I feel I was treated unfairly and scrutinized but the bigger issue was after I closed. The Pulte representative I worked with forgot to offer me a patio in the initial stages. During the final walk thru, due to concerns from my lender about the drop off at the back of the house Pulte would put a patio in after closing. I closed May 22, 2020. The closing was amended with the patio to be installed by ...

Pulte Homes responded:
Thank you for taking the time to outline your experience although it is incredibly disheartening for us to hear. We are deeply sorry you have had such a negative experience. We would like to make leadership aware of this situation so they can make sure the situation is addressed.

Pulte Homes - The whole sales process was amazing, when it came to building

  • Andrew C.
  • Verified Homebuyer

  • Westland, MI

The whole sales process was amazing, when it came to building that when we started having issues. We have issues in our home that still need to be fixed. we thought we had a 30 day evaluation check list but that was all lies. We are still missing a rack from our stove and Zack the construction manager said he ordered but that was a month ago and still haven't revived it. I and very dissatisfied with the construction part of the home, and something need to change quick.

Fail C-

  • Joseph C.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • July 21, 2020
  • Las Vegas, NV

This was a fail. The buying experience was not what we expected. The option prices at the design center were 25-30% higher than the options price sheet from the sales office. This was very disaappointing considering the price sheet was printed 5 weeks before our appointment with the design center. We had to scramble to revise most of our carefully pre-selected options on the spot as each one was itemized for us. We can tell this didn’t bode well with the consultant who looked irked from the start. Post sale experience is regrettable too. Good luck with trying to contact the warranty center. ...

Pulte River Oaks

Sales is outstanding. The agent on site in the model is top notch. The build process is tried and true. Quality and workmanship is solid. The financing process through Pulte Mortgage is excellent. However, upon occupancy customer service in the field falls down in addressing outstanding issues.

Pretty sure I would not build with Pulte again. It was nothing like the last two houses I had built. The process was not very smooth and the quality of some of the workmanship was lacking. I would go into more detail, but it would take too long.

Wiregrass Lane

  • Florence W.
  • Verified Homebuyer
  • July 15, 2020
  • Punta Gorda, FL

Our new house is our "forever" home in Babcock Ranch, FL, and we wanted it to be as perfect as possible. The finishing work on the house is sub-par. The interior paint is sub-par - dirt in the finished paint. The "skip coat" finish just doesn't look good. There is grout all over the new tile floor (even after they had someone come in 2 or 3 times to clean it). The windows are off square, making it difficult to hang blinds. Also, the day we officially closed on the house and expected to spend our first night in our house we found that the sewage line had never been hooked up to the ...

Let me start by saying we love our house. From the inside it is great. For the price paid the outside drainage issues are unexpected and frustrating. Haveing to dig out all the ditches filled with rock and put the gutter run off underground should have been standard. Rock ditches running through the lawn is pathetic. It wouldn't have cost much more to just do it right especially when people are playing 3/4 of a million dollars.

New Spec Home

  • Richard F.

  • July 14, 2020
  • Argyle, TX

Once we sold our existing home, we were needing one asap. When we couldn't find a resale with our requirements, we decided to look at Pulte Homes in Carnegie Ridge. They had a spec home under construction that would be ready in two months. It had pretty much everything we were looking for. Once they set a closing date, they stuck to it. The designer for the interior did an awesome job upgrading enough to produce a beautiful and well color coordinated home. The construction manager, Stewart, was great. He kept us updated weekly on the construction process. He worked hard on answering ...
