Pulte Homes — part of PulteGroup — has been building premium homes since 1950. In South Florida, Pulte's strategy is golf-course redevelopment: turning underused executive courses into amenity-rich, gated communities with resort-style pools, parks, and clubhouses.

About

William J. Pulte built his first home in 1950 at age 18. Today PulteGroup (NYSE: PHM) operates the Pulte Homes, Centex, Del Webb, DiVosta, John Wieland, and American West brands — each targeting a distinct life stage from first-time to active-adult.

Pulte sits above D.R. Horton and Lennar in average home price. The bet: buyers will pay a premium for thoughtful interior planning, harder-to-source amenities (full clubhouses, lake systems, gated entries), and Centex-grade build quality.

''Life Tested Home Designs®'' — Pulte's signature product process — uses homeowner research to refine floor plans before they ever hit the market. The result: storage in the right places, no wasted hallways, and kitchen layouts that work for actual families.

In Miami

Pulte's South Florida specialty is converting former golf courses into master-planned communities. Parkview at Hillcrest in Hollywood — built on a redeveloped Hillcrest Golf Club — is the local flagship: gated, with a clubhouse, resort-style pool, and 70-acre park.

Coral Edge, a 132-unit townhome community on the former Margate Executive Golf Course, launches Summer 2026. Two 3-bed, 2.5-bath floor plans (Mangrove and Banyan), 1,918–1,960 sqft, priced from the high $500,000s with an average sale anticipated in the low $600,000s. No CDD fees — a key cost saving versus competing communities.

Pulte is less active in Miami-Dade proper (their volume runs through Broward and Palm Beach), but for buyers willing to live 30 minutes north of downtown Miami, Pulte product hits a quality tier the other two builders rarely match at the same price.
