Pulte Homes

I purchased my Pulte home in February 2020. It was built and move in ready by August. Any of the minor problems I encounter are immediately scheduled for repair. Not a lot of faulty issues but at any rate I can get an immediate work order submitted via email to the service manager. No complaints at all. Great builder. I saw the negative ratings and wanted to even the score with my positive one.

I am quite disappointed with delay in delivery of my home. When I booked my home, I was promised closing date as end of Aug. I understand that contractually they need to be safe and got contract signed for Oct, which gives them safety buffer. I was going by committed date and not contractual date. With the delays, they are now talking about delivery in Oct. I am just one month away from committed date and they are delaying the date by 2 months. Please learn from experience and plan accordingly.

House is appraised for $675K. I am sharing some photos of this wonderful house. Builders don’t give a damn about their client's #PulteHomes. Salesperson has told me that she can’t give me phone number for the upper management to talk regarding an unfinished home which was recently closed with a promise that house will be done by the time you guys close and then house will be done by time you will be back from closing. 5-6 hours work was left and most of that is still as-is after a Month.

We built a Pulte home in Minneapolis late 2018. It was the same as the model home in the area as we liked that layout with a basement, main level and a loft. In general the home is nice after several minor adjustments and repairs. The main problem has been the HVAC system, which from day 1 was incorrectly wired by the installer. We selected the option to add a 3 zone system for an additional $6,000+ to get a more even control of the 3 levels of the home. After the miswiring was corrected the heating worked adequately. This summer we had a very hot period and the air-conditioning system did not keep up if it was above 90 degrees outside. The compressor kept running constantly until late night.

Pulte Homes they have nice looking model homes but they do horrible job, when it comes to finishing. On my home they used broken window trims, extra gutter pipes all over the place not capped, it took them 7 months to paint the window trims, it took them 7 months to make my driveway and 2 days later it cracked from one end to another, and they are not fixing it either till it 1/4 of an. Bad paint job all over the house, drywalls are cracked everywhere. 7 month later they still haven't filled the front yard or backyard. They don't take care of you after closing. Once they get their money they don't care. If I had a choice I wouldn't do it again or recommend.

Bought new home during covid. No warranty work being done. Now that workers are coming to fix things, Pulte will not honor their warranty past 11 months. And the workers they sent were very poor workers. I ended up doing most the work myself. At least I know it is done right. Never again, pulte. Never will we buy your crap.

RUN RUN RUN!!!! Pulte is crooked, corrupt and an awful company to do business with. They take pride in their warranty program and use it as a selling point but in all reality it SUCKS! They don't follow through on their promises or fulfilling their warranty obligations unless you harass and threaten them repeatedly. And still, the job doesn't get done right. They hire GARBAGE, bottom of the barrel, cheapest crews they can find and your house is the end result. PUT YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE. Oh, and their customer service is sub-par. I can't believe they are still in business. DON'T DO IT!! Especially in Macomb MI. Such a shame...

I closed my home with Pulte on April 4th 2021. During initial Walk through issues were identified, and they promised to fix it before closing. That didn't happened. After closing noticed that there were lots of problems and took a lot of effort to schedule to fix them. I had to babysit all the contractors. After move-in found more issues and have been struggling to get them fix. The communication from Pulte is horrible. I would not recommend them if you are looking for a new home.

I purchased a condo in 2010. The original builder was Centex and pulled took over. I can hear everything single thing the upstairs neighbors make. Talking, walking, running, crying, snoring, name it I can hear it. Did I mention their living room is above my bedroom. This is the worse purchase I could have made. The materials they used are below grade. Save yourself the trouble. Do not buy from Pulte at least a condo where neighbors are above you. You will live to regret it. I wish I could file a class action lawsuit against them.

I thought that Pulte was a reputable builder but they are terrible. They do everything possible to cut corners. Crappy building material and terrible contractors. Shop around but don’t buy Pulte!! I have bought many homes - new and existing construction. Pulte is the absolute worst by every measure.

The builder did a terrible job installing my sod. When I questioned the installation, the Pulte salesman told me that it would be addressed. When I put in a service request, Pulte's management stated that once the sod was installed it was no longer covered under warranty. I had to foot the bill to have the sod completed reinstalled.
