What recent reviews say

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.

Praised for
  • friendly leasing staff (especially Edith)
  • spacious floor plans with private yards
  • newly built with updated finishes
  • convenient location near highway and hospital
Watch-outs
  • poor construction quality and defects
  • slow maintenance response and unresolved issues
  • pest infestations and plumbing problems
  • heavy noise from ongoing area construction
  • inadequate parking and security
  • high unexpected fees and lease enforcement
  • power outages and HVAC failures
friendly-staffoutdated-unitspoor-maintenanceslow-repairspest-issuesnoisy-neighborspoor-communicationhidden-fees
Best for: First-time renters or small families seeking newer construction with yard space in McKinney
Think twice if: Avoid if sensitive to noise from surrounding construction, concerned about maintenance responsiveness, or uncomfortable with strict lease termination fees and surprise charges.

Strengths

  • spacious floor plans with private outdoor space
  • newly built units with updated appliances and finishes
  • convenient McKinney location 30 minutes north of Downtown Dallas
  • affordable pricing relative to comparable McKinney rentals

Worth knowing

  • Edith (leasing specialist) and Ashley (manager) named for positive move-in experiences by multiple reviewers
  • Tonya (office staff) also praised
  • Loose staircase railings reported as safety hazard at move-in
  • Master bedroom windows produce loud buzzing during wind due to poor installation
  • AC failures frequent in units with first-generation Google Nest thermostats
  • Pest control service ongoing but ineffective against ants, flying insects, and tarantulas
  • Water leaks from plumbing installed improperly, painted over rather than repaired
  • Parking restrictions enforced with car towed within 8 minutes of visitor parking; recovery cost approximately $400

Dog park available but lacks nighttime lighting; accessible to non-residents and underutilized by management oversight.

Common questions

Is parking included, and how are parking rules enforced?
Covered parking spots are offered but located far from units. Visitor parking is strictly enforced; one resident's guest car was towed within 8 minutes at a recovery cost of approximately $400.
What is the lease break policy and associated costs?
Breaking a lease incurs a termination fee, two additional months' rent, and repayment of lease concessions. One resident reported total charges of over $12,000 to exit a lease early.
Are maintenance issues resolved quickly?
Response time varies. Some reviewers report issues resolved within 30 minutes to a day; others describe waits of one to two weeks for AC repairs and weeks for water leak fixes.

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.

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.
