What recent reviews say

Long-term residents praise the community's grounds and describe Javier as genuinely helpful during leasing; staff like Jose and Dru handle maintenance quickly. However, newer residents report serious pest infestations (roaches, odors from cats) that offices ignored despite repeated requests, forcing one tenant to contact the city. Conflicting accounts suggest the experience depends heavily on unit condition at move-in and which staff member handles your concern.

Payment disputes and move-out issues reveal inconsistent communication: one resident spent effort getting a second check for 60 cents after conflicting guidance about online payment deadlines. The 3.7 rating and sharp split between five-star and one/two-star reviews reflect these two very different tenant experiences.

Praised for
  • Staff member Javier's welcoming manner and attentiveness during leasing process
  • Long-term residents report friendly staff and well-maintained grounds
  • Responsive maintenance staff (Jose, Dru) and timely repairs for some residents
  • Clean, well-organized apartments at move-in for some
Watch-outs
  • Roach and pest control problems, including repeated requests ignored
  • Strong odors from cats and animal waste throughout community
  • Poor responsiveness and rude behavior from office staff (not Javier)
  • Maintenance issues left unresolved, requiring city intervention; slow AC repair

Best for: Long-term residents, pet owners seeking budget rentals, those prioritizing location over unit condition.
Think twice if: Pest control and maintenance can be unreliable; check your specific unit before signing. Office staff responsiveness varies; new move-ins report roach issues offices ignored.

Strengths

  • Leasing staff member Javier consistently noted as welcoming and patient with applications
  • Affordable rent pricing
  • Pet amenities including park and pet-friendly courtyards
  • Maintenance team responds quickly for some residents

Worth knowing

  • Leasing agent Javier praised by name across multiple reviews for patience and attentiveness
  • Maintenance staff Jose and Dru cited for fast, reliable repairs
  • One tenant required city of McKinney intervention to resolve month-long AC outage
  • Roach infestations reported in multiple units with repeated maintenance requests overlooked
  • Pet odors (particularly cats) cited as persistent throughout community
  • Move-out disputes with manager Ashley over payment method clarity

What reviews say by service

Affordable & Budget-Friendly
Rent called "very cheap" but tenants view it as overpriced relative to maintenance and pest issues.
Pet-Friendly Communities
Pet park and pet-friendly courtyards available; pet odor complaints suggest enforcement of pet limits or care standards may be lacking.

Common questions

How long does maintenance typically take?

Can I tour before signing a lease?
Javier and the leasing office conduct tours. One resident reports being unable to see their apartment before move-in, with 'empty promises' about readiness.
What payment options are available?
The business's website lists flexible rent payment options, though residents report conflicting guidance about online vs. in-person payment deadlines at move-out.

3.4(115)

Several residents and prospective tenants report frustrating encounters with the leasing office, citing long waits for callbacks and staff who work reduced hours. While maintenance keeps the grounds clean and some frontline staff have been praised by earlier visitors, management has faced repeated complaints about selective treatment, missed opportunities to show units, and failure to resolve neighbour disputes or process transfer requests.

Most residents praise the leasing and maintenance staff, particularly Gabi, Mario, and Carol, who handle requests quickly and make people feel welcome. Complaints focus on inconsistent service at the desk, parking shortages, and a few reports of deposit mishandling and unclear application criteria for non-traditional income. The property itself is clean and quiet, with modern units. Success seems to depend on which staff member you meet and whether your financial paperwork matches their expectations.

Woodlyn's reputation splits sharply: residents praise maintenance worker Carlos and leasing agent Veronica for genuine care, while others report units arriving filthy, infested, or broken, with management slow to respond or fix problems properly. The disconnect suggests staff quality varies widely, and move-in experience is unpredictable.
