What recent reviews say

Staff members by name drive the experience here. Taylor, Jacquelyn, and others greet newcomers with patience and detail, walking them through leasing and property tours. Maintenance responds fast when issues arise, and residents praise the gym, pool, and monthly events. The downtown McKinney location puts shops and restaurants within walking distance, though one reviewer noted the building sits across from a gas station and isn't literally in the Square.

The leasing process asks for a deposit upfront, which one applicant lost when denied. That aside, residents report the property stays clean, parking is plentiful in the garage, and the team handles special requests (HVAC adjustments, door repairs, emergency cleans) with genuine care. A year-plus residents cite it as the best place they have lived.

  • attentive staff by name (Taylor, Jacquelyn, Jacqueline, Jaqueline)

  • welcoming onboarding experience
  • walkable downtown location
  • pool, gym, resident activities

Best for: Relocating professionals and pet owners who value walkable urban access and responsive on-site staff.
Think twice if: Application deposits are non-refundable if your rental is denied; building location is across the street from the downtown square rather than within it.

Heritage McKinney Square

Strong leasing staff (Marlene, Shelby, Yazmin praised repeatedly) and responsive maintenance earn consistent five-star marks. However, a sharp divide emerges: working residents hit recurring WiFi outages, those with pets face surprise DNA testing fees, and common areas suffer from spotty cleaning and water damage. Six-guest-pass parking caps frustrate many; management ignores escalated complaints. Best for first-time renters or those prioritizing friendly in-person service and pool access despite known connectivity and fee concerns. Not suitable for remote workers or those seeking seamless digital communication with management.

Newsome Homes

Newsome Homes attracts some satisfied residents who praise staff member Karen DeClouet and appreciate convenient location and clean apartments when first moving in. However, recurring complaints about severe maintenance backlog (roaches for years, plumbing failures), hallway sanitation problems, constant management turnover, and management's hostile approach to complaints dominate the experience for many long-term residents.
