Centex Homes Reviews in Nashville, TN

$460,000 home that doesn’t come with quality product and material. When I breathe on the flat paint walls it leaves a mark, the applicances are quite literally the cheapest things you can buy on the market. Even the primary shower is a built in you don’t even get a nice tile shower. The $460,000 primary closet is 3 metal racks… HVAC unit runs only on Emergency heat if it’s cold out and the small single unit cannot even heat the downstairs and upstairs at the same time you have to choose which floor you want heated and turn off the other. $460,000 house doesn’t come with a single cabinet handle anywhere in the home and not a single blind. The second story creeks like it’s going to fall through the ceiling when you walk around the guest bedroom. Overall one of the cheapest looking and feeling homes I’ve ever purchased. ... More

Poor workmanship. Priced to high. Homes are priced a lot lower now. Nothing but lies .The only good thing they have going for them is Scott the project manager.

Very stressful paperwork had to be sent numerous times and monthly payment and interest rate were not locked in immmefiately they kept changing customer payment amount

Everyone I worked with was great. They were able to answer any questions. When we couldn’t get internet service when we first moved in they set us up with a hotspot to use until internet became available. My one complaint is none of the cabinet doors or drawers come with “pulls”. Also the entire house came with “flat” paint which scuffs too easily and is hard to clean up. I wish they would have used a satin finish instead.Our head builder Mike and selling agent CJ have been amazing to work with allowing me to change closing date without penalty and keeping me informed of the building process etc ...

Overall, we have had a great experience! We enjoy our home, the location, and the amenities, such as a park and walking trails. All of the Centex employees have been wonderful to deal with. However, we are disappointed in the number of large property management companies who have been allowed to buy up the entire neighborhood. Unfortunately, this means we do not have long-term families in the neighborhood. Hopefully, centex will consider families when selling the homes that remain unsold.

Our whole experience was wonderful and we couldn’t ask for anything better

We had a good experience with the Centex Home Buying Experience and the sales individuals were fun to work with.

I was in the market for over a year. Found my great neighborhood and the home I wanted. CJ and Steven were wonderful to work with. They were kind, informative and great to work with! Great experience!

Our initial experience with making an offer on the home and getting updates was good. We got weekly updates pretty consistently in the beginning, but then they started to taper off. Once we were given our closing date, I felt like a lot still needed to be done with the house and was concerned if the house would be "move-in" ready by the closing date. We ended up closing on time and moved in but had a punch list of items to address. One of our biggest concerns was our vinyl flooring, which was not installed to a satisfactory condition. Another concern was the trim work, which appeared to be rushed and sloppy. We had paint splatter on the floor in almost every room, and areas that shouldn't have paint on them had paint on them (windows, door handles, etc). We've currently been in our home for almost two months and we're still pending most of our punch list to be completed. Overall we do enjoy our home, but I also feel that it was rushed to be completed by the close date and that work wasn't done properly. I don't feel that the home was "move-in" ready even though it was okay'd to close. ... More

The homebuying process was excellent, and the home was delivered ahead of schedule, but the plumbing overlooked an issue which caused a flood on day two of homeownership. All repairs were covered, but verbal deadlines to complete that work were not met. Other small things have popped up or been noticed within the first month such as chipping paint, uneven cabinets, and some lack of finishes.

Took 11 months from signing of contract to move in. Many delays and poor communication

I'm just going to say the project leads Cody, and Abbi seriously dropped the ball on our home. We were forced to close or be charged an additional 500$ a day until closing. We are 46 days past our closing and we haven't finished moving in due to long list of punch-list work that needs to be completed. The quality of finishing work is abysmal, and even after 3 attempt of I-worc trying to fix their horrible paint/caulk job we are hopefully going to get results from a new sub-contractor. When the best that our project lead Abbi can say to us is that your house is livable there is a problem. I'm not going to go through some rant here because there is hope as we are working now with Brian who is coordinating the repairs and we greatly appreciate his efforts. I just wish they took time to finish the home before forcing us to close. Also working with Jill was a pleasure as well. ... More

Several issues throughout the buying/building process. While CJ, the sales agent, was great The overall process was cumbersome. For starters we went into contract back in August of 2021 and did not close until May of 2022. This would have been acceptable had the craftsmanship of the home reflected the time spent waiting on the build. Unfortunately it does not. I monitored the progress of the home and each time a trade came to the home they were in and out in a day or two. The trades are still rushing these homes as if they are on a tight build schedule, which they are not. Several quality issues along the way, and although they were addressed, there are things that were done to a poor standard that I now have to deal with warranty to attempt and correct. Our brand new home flooded 24 hours after we moved in due to the test plug in the main drain out not being removed after the stress eat on the home plumbing. Again, another failure of your trades and your construction managers. It then took 6 weeks to get everything repaired, and I am still having to deal with subpar craftsmanship and have things redone with more time spent. I’ve had to take numerous days off of work dealing with all of this and still my house is not back the way it was when I bought it. My family and I are so fatigued from having to deal with all of this I finally told Tim, the warranty manager, to hold off on further repairs just to give us a break. To date I have had repair people in our home more days then not. I’m still dealing with improperly seal glass in my master shower, something they already sent the glass company out to repair, yet it was not repaired. The list of unacceptable workmanship and material goes on and on. More and more things pop up and My family and I are so frustrated we simply don’t have it in us to deal with it all. Several items that were supposed to be done prior to closing were not and unfortunately due to this market I really had no choice but to move forward with closing on this home. If we could sell this home and be done with it we would but unfortunately that is not an option. Although Tim has assured me he will address all of the issues I have my doubts. This is not a knock on Tim but simply a lack of trust in the trades and in your process. Throughout all of this there has been no compensation for all my lost time, the stress this has put on my family, and the overall disaster that buying a centex home has been. This was our first centex home that we’ve bought and it will be our last. ... More

We still have things that need to completed in our home.

The garage door was installed Improperly and we are still waiting on a replacement and cannot secure it. The A/C unit was wired wrong when we moved in and it did not work.

Ramy Good journey with Centex Homes

The purchase of our home was accomplished while traveling and the sales person was extremely helpful in providing information about the house and worked with our realtor so that we were able to complete the transaction smoothly.

The Value for money for the home is not that great. There are many improvement points we find.

Terrible experience with the builder, wish I never bought from Centex (Pulte). They talk about delays, but when you see other home being built and your is not, very disappointing. Communication is terrible, updated email don't tell you the truth on what is going on with your home. After the move in so many issue from leaky windows, floors having bubbles, cabinets not installed correctly, access to attic left open. pressure washing horrible, The yard is full of nails, razer blades, cut metals. Doors don't open on close correctly, bedroom shelfing falls down. No bang for your buck with this company. Do your homeworker, get anything promised in writing from the sales department. Buyer beware. ... More

Nice family oriented community

Before you buy don’t sign in any paper for closing Until fixing all issues I am still have issues on my house

We decided we wanted one of these beautiful Centex homes almost a year ago. We fell in love with the models & optimistically picked a 5 Br, 3 Ba home - we’re empty nesters! As our lot was decided, as the slab was poured, as the house was framed - EVERY step along the way, we got updates, texts, photos & we were 2000 miles away. None of this was required, but the sales Rep Danny did it anyway! We moved to within 30 minutes of our future home & visited often. The construction managers Drew, Nick, & Byron continued to update us & answer our questions(& we had a lot!) as progress was made! I cannot say enough about the great job from those 3 guys as well as Danny & Iryna in the front office! Moving a long distance with 3 big dogs & building our 1st new home is a monumental undertaking, but they made it so much easier for us!! We’re now moved in (4 weeks ago) & we’ve seen a few slight imperfections (really slight!), but we absolutely LOVE this house! The attention to detail that I know was acquired by the construction management team is excellent. They were the quality control part of the equation! ... More

I recently purchased a new home at Carters Station. The home was not ready at closing. The home “celebration” was a disaster. Much of what was supposed to be fixed wasn’t and still hasn’t been corrected, even though I closed over a month ago. There are still serious issues with the ceilings, floor, dry wall, paint, nails left in the carpet, leaking facet, etc. The home was a mess upon move in, with TONS of sanded dry wall patching debris in the carpet, staples left on the stairs that my kids stepped on. Honest opinion- if I had to do it again, I would have bought elsewhere. There is just no pride In workmanship and no quality control on the finishing work. Cody Charley ... More

Complete honesty we have found a lot wrong with the construction of our home. This is understandable and expected but what was unexpected was the builder team continuing to correct/replace/and repair everything me and my wife found. To even go as far as correct issues we ourselves caused during move in!

Nothing but lies and wrong information. Very poor workmanship that even the sub-contractors that were hired by Pulte and were told to come and fix all the issues we encountered said that "Pulte has gotten a very bad reputation for delivering very poor products, they cut corners, use very cheap materials, hire just about anyone to do as much as possible and move on to the next victim." "Bottom line (money and huge profits) is the goal for them." Next, what I just shared is not the exact words that were used by the contractors but close enough to get the point across. We have lost so much hard earned money from our savings because of Pulte. It's been 2 months since we have moved in, and there are still other serious issues that need fixing, namely, 80% of the kitchen cabinets (supposedly brand new) need to be replaced because they are either damaged or warped. It's nothing but a nightmare. This home was not free so that we would say...well it's free, so we got an excellent deal. We are paying mortgage on this home. How these executives at Pulte sleep at night is clear evidence that they don't get down and dirty to make sure that everything that is done is with high standards, they just simply don't care. It's all about the money, and how many fancy and luxurious stuff they can accumulate. Clear case of lack of morals. You can't take it with you, and as far as I'm concerned, and those who are in the same shoes as my wife and I are in, you people at Pulte left a very bad taste in our mouths. I hope those fancy Ferraris you executive are buying is worth ruining your customers lives... "...A good name is to be more desirable than great wealth; Favor is better than silver and gold."
