Pulte Homes Reviews in Nashville, TN

Everyone involved at Pulte was very nice, I felt like they wanted to help me, I know they want to sell but not everyone cares about what happens after the sale. In the end I was very happy with the whole experience and my house, the only part where I felt very pressured was the pre-inspection, when you check that everything was finished, we didn't do that inspection but luckily they did a very good job, I was worried but in the end I'm happy. Another thing is that every member of the team is very knowledgeable and have a lot of experience.Thank Pulte.

Buying with Pultie Homes gave us the security of knowing our home was built well. The guarantees are the best in the industry and response to issues are timely. Everything went smooth from signing contract, walk through and closing

Attention to detail was poor. Landscape horrible.

Pulte was very easy to work with and understanding of my changing closing date. We needed to sell our current home as part of a corporate relocation and Pulte was flexible with us on the closing date. The pre closing celebration and inspection all went great. Overall, they build a really nice home with many great features. The only thing I would like to see improved is the fine detail with trim work and paint. Some areas were a little sloppy considering its new construction and we paid a premium price.

Constantly changed project managers. Continue to pursue customer care for items not agreed upon before closing.

Matt was also helpful in showing the home and answering my many questions. He also has gone out of his way to assure that I am happy with my home purchase. I always have questions, and he never responds like I'm bothering him.

Pulte offers some unique upgrades not available by builders like Lennar. There are some things that seem odd to not be able to upgrade. Interior doors are about as cheap as they come with no option to upgrade to a nice solid core door (we would pay). No option for interior wall insulation to dampen noise from room to room (we would pay). No option to upgrade the LVP flooring to a thicker plank (4.5mm was the only option - again, we would pay). We optioned for a ‘Media Room’ over the garage. A nice way to add space for family to come stay. There is a large walk-in closet AND a very large ‘unfinished storage’ (closet) that is not available to option as an extra bathroom. This storage room shares a common wall with the upstairs bathroom and would have been a simple upgrade (we would have paid 2x for this option). We have a quarter acre of lawn, with no option for irrigation and no shade cover to ‘maybe’ help in keeping the lawn alive. The HOA will fine us if we let the lawn die, so we have a sloppy mess of makeshift sprinklers everywhere to somewhat keep things green until we can hire a company to install irrigation. When building the house, our construction manager would tell us ‘this is how it has to be’ with a number of things we questioned with the build (sub-floor vs slab, wood deck vs concrete, mantel height, exterior shutters vs no shutters, painted interior garage vs no paint, etc.). We walk through all the new Pulte homes going in that were the complete opposite of what was shared. The lack of transparency, false statements, skipping corners, etc. we’re very frustrating and not something anyone should expect with a ‘premium’ build. ... More

The entire home building process was stellar with Pulte homes. The project manager, Griffin, was extremely professional and very responsive to my concerns. Being a second time new home buyer, I would certainly use this builder again.

I'm very disappointed in the quality of workmanship in my NEW home. I feel that the house was thrown together and that nobody from Pulte was overseeing the build. The downstairs flooring has been an issue since before closing (8 weeks ago) and is still an issue today. I was told by Chad that once I put a rug and furniture in the room I would never notice it. There was paint left on the tile and carpet. The carpet in one room was cut and glued back together, but came apart, and the "fix" was to glue it back together again. The list of issues and sloppy work is long. Unfortunately, this has not been a positive home buying experience. ... More

Excellent focus on customer satisfaction

Mike helped us out so much getting to know our home and was able to accommodate our schedule with my wife who had crazy work schedule being a first year teacher and us closing on the house the last week of school

We feel that some SOD is dead but keeping getting told that “it will come back” so we shall see

My wife and i wanted to move closer to our son who's stationed at Ft. Campbell,so we researched extensively,and found Copes Crossing offered the best value,location,and also a good reputation of quality. We lived on Kauai,but we were able to pick out a lot,model,and also options thru video chats,photos,and phone calls with the Pulte design,and sales team.Not an easy task,and kind of nerve racking from 4500 miles away, but the Pulte team made it a lot easier. Everyone was really excellent including TJ,who kept the construction site clean,and on time We are very pleased with the results. Our home came with items that were standard,but would have been options in other developments. The quality was very good,and an excellent value. Thank you to everyone at Copes crossing. ... More

We purchased a home from Pulte as we liked the floor plan and overall our experience with Pulte has been very disappointing. The home we brought is over $1.3 mil , for that much we would expect better quality of material, workmanship, better finishes and overall a much better looking neighborhood. I don’t think that Pulte is partnering with top quality subcontractors and have qualified staff inspecting the work being performed. Overall buying process : Fairly decent. Nothing special or nothing bad. They were easy to work with and seemed organized. Construction updates: Very good We were always kept informed about status of the build, any issues or delays were discussed timely. We were getting an email from our construction manager every week. Material , build quality and workmanship: fair Quality of material seems very average. Definitely very builder grade. This is not a starter home and we expected better quality of materials for items like doors, windows , switches, plumbing , hardware , light fixtures , but all seems very low to mid quality. Since closing and within a month we have had issues with electric with power to light fixtures in kitchen and hall way going out, power to HVAC going out, security lights going out. Carpets have nails sticking out from perimeter and doorway which pinch you pretty hard if stepped on. Note that we had selected a level 2 upgraded carpet ! I have requested Pulte to help fix this, but the response has been that pounding down these would void the warranty as it will damage track strips used to keep the carpet stretched. I have tried to work with them on this issue and have requested a transition to be put in at least in the doorway so that it is covered but it has not been accepted. Pulte customer service will simply echo what their carpet vendor is stating without coming out to my home to inspect the problem in person. All instructions from CRI to carpet manufactures state clearly that track strips should not be installed in the doorway for this very reason. Even the home inspector that I hired stated that but for some reason Pulte is not seeing this as a workmanship problem and seems to be telling me that this is how it is suppose to be. The garage door came out from its tracks and got damaged, we are still working with the vendor on the fix. Hopefully this is covered in the warranty. Lawn is not graded properly has low spots that have puddles of water and take 2-3 days to dry out. There are several other smaller issues that I keep reporting to customer service. Value for money: Poor Unfortunately, again very disappointing. To be fair the cost of everything had gone up but still compared to a $1.3 mil house from other builders in the same city, we feel the overall look, finishes , designs are much more dated and does not feel like it’s decent value. There is not much landscaping provided, elevations of houses look dated, not much variation in houses in the same street making the neighborhood look cookie cutter. Customer Service: OK I will say the customer service is quite responsive, they issue work orders promptly and try to help. But that’s pretty much it. As a home owner prepare to coordinate between the sub contractor and Pultes customer service. There is no follow up from Pulte to see if the work was completed properly. The construction manager is not involved after the home is closed. So you are pretty much dealing with subs on your own or getting caught up between all. Overall, it has been dissatisfying experience building with Pulte. We don’t think we will build with Pulte again. ... More

CJ was a splendid professional and facilitator . He represented PULTE Homes in an exceptional manner. He is sales representative in White House, TN Great personality, sense of humor. CJ could sell ice to folks living in Antarctica.

We were updated every step along the way. They were done right on schedule and the job was completed superbly. Great experience!

Don't buy home a home from Pulte. They will rip you off like they too is.

We build our house in Franklin area, selling price of close to 1.5 million. Our experience since day 1 has been nothing less than but frustrating. Person (Walker) responsible of building our place knows nothing and will prefer to lie instead of saying I don't know and let me find out. I have so many examples which I can list down here like missing out air return, back porch coach light, wrong tiles, wrong color on cabinets etc... Mistakes happen but if you choose to lie then as a customer I don't want to trust the builder and their processes. Pulte deliberately hides critical information in the name of Intellectual property like master plan, electrical drawings and do not share with customer. If they do then they know that customers will catch a lot of issues and will increase their work. I will really like someone from Pulte to reach out to me. Whoever reads this and if they try just a bit to figure out these problem then you will know who wrote this. Please reach out to me, I want to give you a chance to talk about this. If not, I will be posting these reviews online like Google, Twitter and Insta so other buyers knows what they are signing up to. ... More

Our construction manager, Connor, was great. There were a few issues upon moving in that we are still trying to get resolved, but it’s as expected with new construction.

I love my house very much clean and very beautiful landscape

Unfortunately, after moving into our new home I notice more and more quality issues every single day. The dry wall is so cheap it feels like it could crumble just touching it, there are many walls where the corners are not at right angles and are crooked, the drywall has many imperfections, I am seeing the tape lines in the ceiling under the drywall, there are ridges under the carpet where the flooring doesn't meet, window frames are starting to rust (we have been moved in 2 weeks), front and back porches have huge cracks forming...I could go on and on. The quality sucks. Will never buy a new build again. Houses just aren't built like they used to be. I feel like I live in a house of glass that I have to be exceptionally careful with. ... More

Overall it was a great home. We really enjoy living there. Other than one closet in one of the bedrooms where the door is designed wrong and when you put your clothes in the closet you can’t open the door to get into the closet. Everything else has been great.

Experience overall was very good

We purchased this home for our daughter and her family. The buying experience was spectacular. The on;y issue we have thus far is that the GFI in the laundry room pops when she starts her washer. We plugged the washer into an extension cord then plugged the extention cord into an outlet in the hall and it works fine. I made a warranty request weeks ago and have not heard form anybody to date.

We purchased the house for providing additional space for special needs kid and pulte team agreed to build the house with accessible bathroom on main floor. 1) It took 3 months for the sales person, an architect and designer to come up with plan and in the end bathroom had no overhead light. We got a very dark bathroom.for our kid who has vision problems 2,) the bathroom floor has been redone multiple times ( multiple grout colors at first) but builder has not initiated the fix until last day. The bathroom floor is redone on closing morning only to find that the water had drainage issue 3) The traders have damaged LVP floor few days before the closing and found too many scratches in multiple areas but this was not taken care before the closing and no one really cared until we inquired about it 4) the bathroom floor again redone couple of days ago but the flooring guy has idea what they are doing - this time again used different color grout and still not fixed the original issue of water not draining properly 5) the counterpart chips were broken by traders on the day of closing. Having a very tough time getting the issues fixed at the moment. You really need to chase people to get work done. We regret building our house with pulte. Please avoid pulte and build somewhere else if you want peace of mind and save your energy. Don’t waste your time. ... More
