We entered into a contract with Centex Homes in October, Pulte Homes purchased Centex homes. We were told They would not start our home unless we removed the contingency to sell our home even though we had a ratified contract saying they would start our home and we would have until 60 days prior to closing to remove the contingency. They recognize the fact that we have the contract and say if we choose to pursue them legally they will take 2 years to build our home. Which is a little "fail safe" for them in their contracts. In the end, they said we could release them from the contract and they would give us our full deposit back... But they were definitely not going to start our house. We had a closing date of April 22, 2010 to move into our dream house. Now we are stuck searching for a place to live...

I HAD PURCHASED SECOND HAND A CONDO/2 STORY IN MANASSAS NEAR TEN YEARS NOW. I HAVE HAD TO TELL YOU THE DRYWALL IS BAD THE TAPE IS PEELED OF UNDER THE SLIGHT COAT OF PAINT. IT SEEMS THAT EVERY JOINT WAS NOT MUDDED AND FINISHED. THROUGHOUT THE TWO STORY COND. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE PLUMBING AND HEATING AND NOW IT'S PLUMBING UNDER THE THE WASHING MACHINE. WHICH HAS CAUSED A LEAK TO THE FIRST LEVEL AND NOW I NEED TO REPAIR THE CEILNG AGAIN! I HAVE PICTURES OF ALL THESE EVENTS ALL CAUSED BECAUSE PULTE DELIVERS A VERY POOR PRODUCT. I ALSO HAVE FOUND THAT THE LAUDRY ROOM WAS NOT COMPLETED THAT THE TRIM ON THE FLOOR WAS INCOMPLETE THE WINDOWS WERE THE CHEAPEST EVER/SCREENS. THE QUALITY IS THE WORST FINISHED PRODUCT AND I'M SURE THAT A HOME INSPECTION WAS NOT GOOD EITHER.I HAD OWNED A TOWNHOUSE AS WELL THAT WAS PULTE BUILT AND IT WAS NOT ANY BETTER. BUT AT THAT TIME MY HUSBAND WAS A VERY GOOD DRYWALL FINISHER AND HE SPENT HIS SPARE TIME FINISHING THE JOB RIGHT. NO MORE PULTE HOMES FOR ME AND I ADVISE OTHERS NOT TO EXPECT QUALITY WITH PULTE. PICTURES WOULD BE MADE AVAILABLE ON A AS NEEDED BASIS.

Pulte homes sold me a house that rot in structure. Legally I was not allowed to sell it. Due to mold and white flakes from drywall repairs that lasted for seven months my family were evicted into hotel. I was seriously stressed and delivered a baby prematurely in smoky Las Vegas hotel. How come I face punitive damages if I sell defective house, but Pulte Homes hasn't paid for damages it caused? My house lost over one million of its value and my baby got damaged during and after delivery. I would have made it to a hospital if I had lived in that Pulte home, but the hotel was too far away. Baby's respirator, physiotherapy and orthopedic devises were paid by me as well.

Pulte Home Orlando fl Fraud rip off.

Reasons why you should not purchase a home from Pulte Homes or other builders under the corp. umbrella of Dewebb, Centex homes. If you or someone that you know purchased a home from Pulte homes or Deweb. It’s very important that you take the time to read my post. This could save you thousands! Maybe save your home or even give you the ammo to make Pulte homes purchase that over priced home that you purchased at the wrong time.

Between 11/2007 and 4/2008 Pulte homes sales staff Ripped off unsuspected home buyers in the Orlando area in a community located near the Orlando Convention center called Vista Cay. During the time. Pulte Homes sales staff during the time that the real estate market was declining in the middle of 2007, According to Court documents recorded in public records. Pulte homes sold dozen of homes in the Orlando area at higher sales prices, paying an 8% real Estate commission plus a $50, 000.00 to $70, 000.00 selling bonus to the selling realtor. Now what really took place in this situation? Pulte homes sales staff assisted the buyers in getting a large portion of this money back in their pockets at closing, some of cash I feel went back into the pockets of the sales stuff from Pulte. When Pulte Home supplied my Real Estate Company with a sales contract with a much lower commission to keep from raising suspensions. But after obtaining the finial HUD-1 statements provided to the Lenders such as SunTrust and Chase I found that there was sales commissions appeared to go to my company that I never received. The average commission was about $90, 000.00 on a 335k purchase. Sounds a little fishy………….right? I have been a Real Estate Agent for 13 years and Mortgage Broker for at least that long as well.
When I discover I was taxed by the IRS for over 1, 000, 000.00 in revenue that I never received I contacted Pulte home office in Michigan. I was routed to an office in the Orlando area. After a meeting with the VIPs of the company and several emails Pulte informed me that the sales staff did not do anything out of the ordinary and nothing wrong. Well I beg to differ. My questions are as follows.
1. How did the sales contracts and closing statements inflated by 100k get by the bean counters in Michigan? When we all know production builders are all about the bottom line.
2. How does Pulte explain sales contracts that they provided to me with sales commissions about 92k less per transaction then what really happen?
3. What is Pulte doing for all the other buyers that purchased homes in a 14 month time frame that paid far too much? What this did was artificially inflated the value of all the homes sold in this time frame. YOU PAID 100, 000.00 more then what you should have in that time frame.
4. What about the other homeowners struggling to resell condos that are worth less then a 1/3 of what the original cost was.
5. What about the Home Buyers that lost their homes because of Pulte Homes Greed and fraudulent dealings.

This is all public record and I would be happy to review your closing documents to see if you have fallen victim of Pultes Scam. Email me today or have your Lawyer contact me. I would be happy to share copies of the documents that I have. You may be entitled to be a part of a potential class action case against Pulte Homes.

Hands down the worst drywall finish, door frame finish I have ever experienced in my life. We were rushed through our closing and with a bit of slight of hand weren't able to really take the time to fully examine all of the walls, doors, etc. When you have your final walk through take at least half a day and examine all joints and door frames/trim. I've seen better dry walling done by weekenders with little or no experience. Pulte will lie to you, will try to get you to settle for less than you deserve, and will stall, stall, stall in an attempt to run out your warranty. They do not build quality homes and their sales staff are little more than used cars sales people.

Stay away from Pulte Homes. We've fought them for two years and have gotten a number of things corrected, but the quality of materials used and fit and finish does not warrant what they charge for their townhomes.

I read recently where Centex merged with them; hopefully they'll learn a thing or two because the quality is non existant and they don't care. Their response to most things, without saying it, is essentially "tough luck buddy, you were stupid enough to buy from us'.

Whatever you do don't buy a Pulte home.
