Pulte Homes Reviews

We had issues with the house since we moved still waiting for grass to be fix for the 3rd time and no sense of urgency!

Very bad finishing work, very irresponsible customer service managers when it comes to getting issues fixed, you call them, they give you the run around, and never get back to you. They make appointment with contractors to get issues fixed, you sit at home waiting and 95% of the time, contractors don’t show up. They managed to turn our dream house into a nightmare with they lack of respect and responsiveness to the house issues, you pretty much have to chase them, and almost beg to fix issues at the house that you paid a lot of money for, like they doing you a favor. I’ve been waiting two months to use a summer kitchen that I paid $18.000,00 for, and still can’t because, the work on it is not complete, not counting the many others finishing issues and I’ve been begging them to have the contractor come and finish, and nothing! I am pretty much giving up on them , and I’m going to have to use legal means to force them to honor the house warranty. I had issues with pulte from day one , beginning with the sales manager, that after the sale was secured, never answered or returned my phone calls and text messages. This was a sign , that I was about to get frustrated throughout the whole buying process, and so I was and still am .The only one that tried to help me in whatever he could, was the foreman named Dominic Romano, other then him, everybody else just give you the run around, and believe me, make you mad. Very bad house buying experience I’ve been having with pulte, not happy at all and I’ll never do business with them again in the future. If you don’t believe me, buy a house with them and find it out for your self . Absolutely not recommended! ... More

Absolutely Substandard appliances given, since one month issues are not being addressed. Only a blame game, fire alarm is not functioning well and beeps daily full day and night. Appliances provided are substandard and not working, Pulte executives say they can’t do anything. Children have final exams and we are living in a devastated state with Pulte homes

Terrible experience from start to finish. Don’t communicate, aren’t honest, and don’t really care about the customer. Bottom line focused and any cost. Would love to talk to someone about all this but they actually want to hear.

They distract you from the big issues before closing. Then once you close everything has to go through warranty. Don’t close without a professional at your side

The worst build process I’ve ever been through in my life. Too many issues to type but all it takes is one look through my history. Since I’ve been in the home (2 months), I’ve already had a ceiling leak in my master bath, electrical problems (outlets not working in all bathrooms, window still not fixed that was on closing detail, landscaping not completed. I would not and will not recommend Pulte, not even to my worst enemy.

All areas of the home are having issues. Knowingly installing recalled electrical panels and refusing to replace them tells the ethical issue. Doors and windows do not match and close properly. The hardware installed is not aligned and is crooked. Tiles have grout and glues that weren't cleaned properly now it is too late to clean. I do not recommend anyone paying round million dollars for the home they are building. Please vet other builders before choosing Pulti.

Product not delivered as promised, material used very bad quality for high price paid, this makes me think buying an old charmed home and do updates my self

Facing issues on many areas. First of all the build quality is very poor and finishing is not good at all. I will explain this in detail. The issues which I have stated at walk through wasn't cleared when they handed over the keys. The main front door was tight and they replaced it but I had to wait more than a week to get that fixed. Still I'm having issues with the door. Also the storage door at downstairs and the sliding door of closet got broken after first use. Light fixtures are not properly aligned in many areas. 2 stations on sprinkler system is not working. Everyday Im seeing new issues. Overall I'm not completely satisfied with the purchase and will recommend to ... More

Karla never responds to messages. Home was not completed on closing. To the day still unfinished items not taken care off. Terrible customer service and built

Waited over a year for a home promised to be delivered in 6 to 8 months, only to be subjected to the sub-standard materials, sub-standard workmanship, overlooked construction discrepancies by the construction managers, paid upgrades that were never installed, lack of care or concern during the warranty period with NO follow-up to inquiries. We were also provided a poor turn-over of the home; not provided with any administrative access to our touch panels, nor the garage door keypad (which should not have been installed). We were also never provided any drawings of our home. With every newly constructed home that we have owned, in the state of Florida, the builder provided us a set of detailed drawings of the home, in case we need to update or modify our home at our leisure. This is an inevitable reality for disabled military Veterans, of a combined 48 years of honorable service to our country. Even with this request we received opposition from Pulte Homes and are forced to divulge private HIPPA protected medical information to receive drawings, to honor this request? As we stated previously, we will NEVER recommend, nor endorse the Pulte brand. ... More

Not even the sales team is nice. They are not knowledgeable at all, rude people. House bad, frames bad, plumbing bad issues since the first day

I can't stress enough, do not buy from pulte!! Even if you have given them a deposit, let them keep it and run!!! You can never say I didn't warn you! All the bad reviews are 100 percent true!

Found multiple major issues after moving in, regret the purchase now. They haste the closing and later found two big holes in the wall behind the kitchen cabinets leading to rodents. Having issues with AC unit.

Lack of response to poor workmanship!

We were forced to close before the property had all the final touches competed and it has been a mess trying to get the builder to hold their contractors accountable for the terrible work. The house still has not been completed.

At the end of the day the bones of the home might be great, but they sure can’t finish a home. So many finishing issues wity trim, appliance installation, paint, cleaning, chaulking, sloppy work, building materials all over the windows, lack of care of finishing things out of view, carpet pulling, and more. and when we talked to pulte, they blame the trades.. lol. The builder is not worth it.

A lot of issues with the house despite the fact that the construction was delayed beyond belief.

I don't have any words to say how bad the whole process is and how much mental stress and pain they can give to buyer. Everything they will say we will fix and force you to close the home and they will give you letter of intent and finally after the close ... you hear the words "" As per Plan"", we won't do anything. The new home becomes 10 year old within a year with so many breaks and fixes as part of warranty. The construction team quality is very poor and they think warranty team will fix incase of leaks and issues. So you end up with fighting with warranty and break walls, doors of your new home. There is no honesty, they will change rules from buyer to buyer, not on their promises and words. The main highlight thing is they will say yes initially and keep delaying a final confirmation and they will say after couple of weeks either No or not possible, by the time you lost your interest and fed up with follow ups. I do not have an option to give negative rating which they deserve 100% and I can say in one word they show " A Magic Show " to sell home. ... More

We had a water leak in the office room downstairs. We put in a warranty claim. The initial response was very fast which we appreciated it. The leak was fixed and stopped quickly. However, we’ve been waiting for more than a month for the drywall and the carpet that were damaged to be fixed. This should not take this long. My wife works from home and uses this office for work. We are having a very bad experience with the warranty issues to be completed in a timely manner. It is very disappointing.

First, the sales representative is very rude in responding. Even after 40 days of closiystill there are lot of non weather related items pending.

i went to level 4 cabinets because they mentioned they cabinets dont have seperation but handed me 3 cabinets with seperation and no one is responding to get the issue resolved..

There are a lot of problems waiting to fix, and all house was rough finish! All the bricks in our front yard and back yard are improperly spaced and uneven height, leaving a big gap, and some of them have black oil stains on. Unfortunately, they have not been solved at present. The ground on the second floor squeaks, walking on it has a sense of insecurity, currently lived in a month, there are two bedroom doors cannot closed.

First they didn’t let me lock the interest rate. Second the house built over a year. Third, the house job very bad, not even quality. The whole house wall horrible paint, a lot of bubbles, they tell me it’s a new style; many cracks in the ceiling, they said it’s the weather problem; upstairs game room the wall both out, they said it because the wood inside is not straight; Bathtub, washbasin, mirror had chips, downstairs shower room wall chipped, they still didn’t come fix it; and windows problems. All four of game room windows are not sealed properly. The garage door is canted; flooring problems…..a lot of problems! I hope Pulte will come over my house fix all the problem as soon as possible! ... More

This is our second home but our first ever built and the whole process was stressful to say the least. I was disappointed at the quality that the house was delivered. The quality of workmanship and materials are embarrassing and doesn't worth the money we pay for the house. We came upon several issues while we did our preclosing check up and our concerns were heard until we had to involve more people. The house would have been delivered better if Pulte homes didn't push to finish the house sooner than it was supposed to. I doubt we will go with Pulte homes for our next house. NEVER AGAIN!
