Great house and top quality with one exception

Everything about my build was AWESOME! I loved every step, right up until the end. I went in to do some tape for drywall issues and then again... And again. Closed on the house and that afternoon drywallers came back because they missed spots that I had taped 10 times before. I talked with my neighbors and all of them seem to have the same feelings that the drywall is poor quality. I took one star off quality and value because of the poor drywall. The drywall is the finished surface indoors and seeing blemishes, bubbles, lines, divots, etc bring down the perceived value.

We had several issues concerning our side & rear yards regarding the landscaping, drainage, etc. These issues go back to the week of March 13th, when we walked our property w/Justin since Chaz was out for Covid-19 quarantine. As of last week, we met w/Chaz & Baytree Landscaping & hope our yard issues can be resolved this week per Chaz & Baytree.

For a suburban home lot it isn't bad. I cant help but think could could more out of my money by just custom building slightly further out of town. It is a tract home so quality is pretty good for the most part but there Is definitely signs of going fast. They did a decent job for drainage on the whole community but they should have still put more thought into it because they definitely went the cheap route.

We have been really pleased with our new home. We are still having issue with AT&T being able to connect our home to their service which was suppose to be installed in March. As this is a service issue I would like to make sure that all new homes indeed have access to internet and cable on completion expecially in the current stay at home environment. Luckily we have unlimited data on our cell phone provider and have been able to teether our devices, but this is not overall acceptable.

There are so many things that were not caught

All the doors in my house need to have tops and bottoms sanded and painted. The whole interior and out side need to be repainted.(they came in and did touch ups -- you can see the difference) Several areas still need chaulking. The windows I can not open or lock once I get them back down. At bottom of Patio door missing plaster. Shower rod in 2nd bath was not installed correctly. Front door needs to be adjusted so no light or bugs are coming in. Still finding wood shavings in cupboards as I clean and store things.

Like any new build the house was near perfect, with a few minor issues (two pieces of hardwood not set correctly, garage door dented, minor plaster spots that needed cleaning). I requested them fixed and had them all handled within a week of notifying them. Minor stuff like that is almost unavoidable as quickly and they build these houses. So far very happy with the home and with the response from the few minor issues I submitted to be repaired. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars for the whole home buying experience is because I went through Pulte mortgage, and sadly it was just issue ...

Everything is OK except landscaping. The landscaping contractor did a terrible job ! There are a lot of deep areas and many many of pot holes in the yard ! The whole neighborhood has the same issue ! Centex should send the landscaping team to redo what they did not perform right at the first time, people might sue Centex when they get hurt by stepping in these pot holes ! Please fix this problem for everyone in this community.

Great builder, but just take your time in the selection process from picking your lot, to the elevation to the interior and exterior options as it can become VERY overwhelming. You will be happy with the end result if you do this.

Building manager was exceptional, very responsive and professional. Building quality- some aspects were rushed. Painters were terrible. Caulk seal of crown molding is sloppy and already starting to separate. Choice of dishwasher is poor due to quality of its functioning as well as overall look.

There are a couple of issues that still need to be address. But don't know who to contact, as we have mentioned it twice to the Centex Realtor at the new home sales office. The ground/front yard is not leveled and very uneven in many places. My elderly father who lives with me has fallen a couple of times because the ground has so many uneven areas. I have also tripped and twisted my ankle when walking throughout our front yard. Its difficult to continue to clean out the weeds because its difficult to walk safely throughout the yard. Who can help us fix this issue? Our neighbors said they ...

I got a great price per square foot on a new home in Elley Crossing. Unfortunately, I'm finding out you get what you pay for. I experienced several quality control issues that, for the most part, they're willing to address. But it can be a bit of a hassle to see these issues through. I still have some pending. Also, all lighting fixtures and bathroom finishings used in my home were very basic. But that could be why I got such a good price. The paint quality could be better too, and my yards are still an unleveled mess, but overall, I still feel like I got a good deal. Maybe I should be asked ...
