What recent reviews say

Staff go above and beyond during tours and maintenance visits, with Raymond and Christina earning repeated praise for genuine care and quick repairs. The gym and property upkeep draw consistent compliments, and many residents report hearing no neighbor noise. However, persistent roach problems dominate recent complaints: residents describe ongoing infestations despite pest control visits, sometimes killing multiple roaches daily for months. New management has drawn fire for poor communication, forced internet bundling, and aggressive towing of visitor vehicles.

The complex attracts mixed experiences within the same property. Early residents and pet owners note quiet neighborhoods and responsive staff, but later move-ins faced escalating pest issues, management switchovers, and lease disputes. Fast maintenance helps when units break, yet systemic problems like pool heating and building-wide pest control remain unresolved.

Worth knowing

Most residents praise the friendly leasing team, especially Justin and Virginia, for guiding them through move-in with patience and responsiveness. Units are described as beautiful and clean once issues are addressed, maintenance responds promptly, and amenities like the fitness center and rooftop lounge exceed expectations. Guest parking has strict limits and towing rules that caught at least one resident off guard, and one move-in unit required manager intervention to fix construction debris and pest damage, though the property manager took accountability and corrected all issues.

Staff, especially Edith in the leasing office, earn consistent praise for friendliness and smooth move-ins; the townhomes offer spacious layouts with private yards at affordable rates for McKinney. However, tenants report persistent construction defects (loose railings, buzzing windows, flooded plumbing), slow maintenance, pest problems including ants and termites, frequent power outages, and unresolved HVAC failures. Heavy construction noise from the surrounding area and limited lighting add to the strain, and surprise lease-break fees totaling thousands have frustrated departing residents.

Recent management changes have brought staff Paulo, Tiffany, and Ashley into strong performance, resolving long-standing maintenance backlogs and earning consistent five-star praise for attentiveness and follow-through. However, the property itself struggles with dirty common areas, persistent pest problems (flies, ants, silverfish, wasps), and bird waste that residents say goes unaddressed for months despite emergency reports. Pricing practices have also angered renewing residents, who discover identical units listed at lower rates plus move-in specials offered to new applicants. Current management appears vastly more responsive than its predecessor, yet reviewers question whether amenities match "luxury" positioning given the ongoing maintenance and pest control shortfalls.
