Centex Homes Reviews in Atlanta, GA

So we are happy that we got to move to a brand new home. They made it easy for us to qualify. I'm however not so happy about the pricing of almost 400k not only because of the little amount of land and construction but the quality of materials on the construction seems very cheap and we can start we the tile or ceramic on bathrooms and laundry room. Also on the surrounding of the property, the construction crews didn't clean so well and there are still some trash that we had to pick up. So if the price would have been less, then the price would make sence but to me 400k for the quality of materials doesn't make sence. ... More

The interior paint workmanship is very poor, basically half of the area is unevenly painted, and the rest are well done

Committed to serve clients

The construction manager was absolutely outstanding and great to work with.

It was a smooth transaction taking in consideration we were buyers from outstate. They helped us with every questions and regards.

Overall pleasant experience. Very attentive before closing, definitely delayed responses after closing. No major issues. Do recommend with any home purchase that buyer gets a personal inspection. Again, no major issues were discovered, but builder was likely a bit more conscientious.

The process was fairly smooth.

We love our home. It is beautiful and the craftsmanship is good.

I have experienced good response from team. I think the company can improve the finishing details for walls and flooring.

The builder Stephen was very friendly knowledgeable and helpful. Communication with the builder was perfect and easy. We love our house. The only inconvenience was the hardwood floors that need to be repair and some problems with the water heater. Overall Stephen was a great help! So far the best builder I’ve ever known.

The field manager was awesome!

From 1 to 10. As right now 8 construction is showing some.issues

Issues submitted are not addressed timely Example: Emergency call on Saturday November 18, 2023 Major water leak damage to kitchen floor, flex room carpet and molding. Plumber came out Sunday morning, 11/19/23 and says water leak is from dish washer; still waiting for anyone to come out to address.

So, I purchased a home with Centex. The Centex Sales Staff and Builders were excellent. Unfortunately, the Pulte Lending staff were not very knowledgeable and dragged their feet for 30 days, literally asking for documents that I would have to obtain from a California court at the 11th hour, in which would cause me to miss my closing date. Also, I suggested a 45 day escrow but Pulte lending insisted on 30 days. After observing Pulte lending mishaps, too many to name in this revuew, I finally decided that the $10k towards closing on my Centex home purchase was not worth it and went with another lender who got me approved in 2 weeks, only missing my closing date by 2 weeks. ...

Builders Pete and Clint were absolutely amazing would want them to build my next home God willing. They are very professional and explained all I needed to do for my home for the upcoming months and in the future to get the best longevity of the home

My experience was stressful. My sales person was great until I finally decided to buy. Afterwards, he never responded timely or sometimes not at all. I decided to use their mortgage company and even though I had over an 800 credit score, been on my job over two tears and paid off all my debt I was told I may not qualify and I should not have paid off my debts. That made no since to me. My builder was great and responsive. The quality of paint and carpet is low. Feels like I'm walking on the bare floor no padding. Flat paint that is easily flawed. During the walk through had to have several walls sanded and repainted. The carpet was not tacked down in several places. You have to email for service calls because no one answers the phone. However, they do respond timely to your emails. I love the layout of my home and hope to enjoy it for years to come. If I had known there was going to be 400 plus homes in this Subdivision, I probably would not have bought here and the houses are a little close together. ... More

The internal design and use of space is excellent.

I wanted to wait a few months to do the review so I could give a fair assessment of my Centex home. First and foremost, I appreciated the fact that there was always someone I could call if I had an issue. Overall, I think the home is worth what I paid for it, just make sure you get everything you ask for before you sign anything; after that, the chances of getting whatever it is you were offered is, more than likely, not going to happen. The first things that stood out to me about the house I purchases was the workmanship; it was shoddy at best. I could tell my home was built from a "quantity" standpoint versus a "quality' standpoint. My move in date got pushed back because I had issues with the way some of the "finished" items looked. Although the issues were all repaired, there were enough to keep my caution up for the first few months. Besides the breaker panel being mislabeled and not receiving new labels to label it correctly, there weren't any major or potential issues I saw until about my second month in the house. My heat wasn't circulating throughout my house so I enacted the warranty. Within a day, I received a phone call and made an appointment for someone to come and take a look at my ventilations system. I was pretty impressed with the speedy response. However, after a specialist inspected my ventilation system, I was told that, not only was a bad damper motor installed, but the foundation (I'm assuming some type of blocks or wood) that kept the system aligned hadn't been installed. Thankfully, it was all repaired, but at the same time, I wonder what else needs to be repaired that I don't know about. Again, overall, I think the house is a nice one and has much potential, but my rating is based solely on my experience with Centex and my home thus far. ... More

Some of the workmanship and materials used were done poorly. Overall, not bad, but for the price, could have been completed neater and better materials used such as bathroom and kitchen fixtures. Takes a long long time for work to be addressed and/or done to fix work poorly done. Disappointed with that.

We love the floor plan if our home.

They rush to finish the homes. had to push out my closing date. And the inside of the home still had things to get fixed even after my closing. Sloppy work on some areas of the house. Centex is an ok builder. Homes should be supervised better and more careful before giving a firm closing date.

I had high hopes for my new home purchase but have identified several areas where Centex cut corners. The paint feels like chalk and there are areas in the construction where they attempted to 'fill in' chipped drywall with plaster and it is very noticeable. Not to mention the fact that the floor on the 2nd level squeaks in multiple rooms. I submitted a service request 1 week ago mentioning these issues (and others) and still no response from the builder. Bummer

I hate to use the word nightmare because I’ve certainly experienced worse. But you definitely don’t get what you pay for. Here I am a month I’m still waiting for someone to come fix the windows that won’t close, paint our outside veranda, install missing lights, and bring missing pieces to our blinds. Upgrades you pay for you have to remind them you paid for or you don’t get them: examples is crown molding, tray ceilings etch What we had to get fixed during the process was crazy: missing screens, attic unit missing pipe covers, shotty painting, wrong tile in kitchen, missing light over shower, chipped and cracked marble/granite, etc. And we put down over 40% cash on this house and got a house I could only compare to a sad reflection on workmanship of what they show you in the model. They take some sweet time building for 6 months and then it’s a mad dash the last 2 weeks to get it ready to move in. I will never build with centex or Pulte again. I’ll stick with Taylor Morrison who for a townhome we had for $100 less what was better quality. ... More

I wanted a new construction home to be the first person to walk in and enjoy the home. Instead I’ve been here for a month and it looks like 5 years. The paint is terrible. They used flat paint and every time you touch it it becomes marked in some way. I tried to wipe it off and the paint came off. The plumbing fixture weren’t attached to the wall and the air vents not flushed. A hole in the wall that wasn’t there during the prewalk and still hadn’t been repaired. I understand that COVID slowed things down but this is just poor quality and overall sloppy build. I’m disappointed.

This was definitely not a good time to build…it took 8 months from contract signing to close. Options were not explained in detail when selecting upgrade options.
