Worst experience I ever had. Will not buy centx home again.

Centex was horrible to work with. Not putting customers 1st. Houses have tons of issues. And warranty is a pain to submit and vendors refuse to work with customer unless work order is sent from centex.

I don’t normally write reviews, but I felt I should for this experience. As a first time home buyer, I didn’t know what to expect. I would visit my home every couple of weeks to check the progress and in doing so I noticed some things. First, there was a bottle of pee in one of the bedrooms that spilled over before the carpet was put in. So who knows if it was cleaned properly. Second, there was toilet paper in the guest bathroom as if they were using the toilets instead of the portable restroom right outside my home. As we expressed our concerns during the walk through, we received a ...

We recently purchased a new Centex home and everyone from the sales lady to the closing agent could not have been more pleasant and professional to work with. We were guided through the buying process with detailed instructions online and over the phone. Thanks to everyone for making it a good experience for us.

Lack of accountability with the warranty department and low end contractors with no integrity

I closed over a month ago and have the same issues i had before closing. They told me we will get all this taken care of and even wrote up a form we both signed and told me within a week it will be done and its been over a month and I have been no showed several times and now just getting blown off with no help. Just need some accountability to keep checks on people

From the moment I signed the buyer’s agreement, the Pulte/Centex team kept me in the loop of the progress and everything that was going on with my home and the building process. Kayla provided me with detailed weekly updates and was always there whenever I had any questions. Towards the end I met the construction manager, Colton, and I was in contact with him pretty much daily up until the closing date. My satisfaction and happiness were extremely important to them and any issues I had were solved very quickly. Even after closing the team has been supportive and have been checking in and ...

Overall a good experience. Jarrod and Izzy were very attentive and respectful. Gave very insightful information about my first home and made it well worth the wait. Had a few issues but they were quick to resolve them. Couldn't have asked for better service. Thank you to those two Gentleman & Centex for providing top notch service. Would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Charlotte and Raul were a pleasure and definitely made a great home buying experience. Of course there were bumps at times but those folks made it a lot better in the end. Would definitely recommend the experience of biying a home from Centex homes.

The longer I am in my home the more issues arise. Blinds that are falling down, nail holes in the ceilings, no caulking below baseboard, epoxy split and dried on floor, cracks in the walls appearing...NEVER been so disappointed.

Terrible first home experience continued

  • Tanner C.

  • Leander, TX

Unnecessary arguments over move in dates, for a new home there was quite a bit of things that needed to be addressed. Outside of the blatant flaws that was all over the home, the first night my decorative piece on the top of the blinds fell on me in my sleep, there was blue masking tape on my ceiling that I can’t reach, no seal for my shower to the floor, my towel rack in my master bathroom wasn’t screwed in completely resulting in damage now in my bathroom from it scraping, the workers around my home have zero respect. The portal potty is right up against my driveway when they could easily ...

Add 1 month to the estimated closing date they give you, and make sure you hire a 3rd party inspector because there will be shortcuts found that need to be addressed

I love my home but I do not like the paint used. Basically I will need to repaint the entire place. You can't clean the walls or doors because the paint is so cheap. Also beware of the sprinkler system. My 1st water bill was $379!
