Covington Pointe Apartments

updates since the office will not. Worst decision of our lives. I just wouldn't.

because of this untrustworthy behavior. I can't help but feel uneasy around dealing with this management I have been lied to about fees and apartment readiness, and because I trusted their word I am now in a worse position Learn from my experience, these are nice apartments but do not trust the management team

double kitchen sink with a stainless steel one, and I offered to contribute to covering the cost, they installed the new sink right away, and refused my money. The whole complex is very quiet and clean; you cannot imagine you are living so close to the Tollway. The only reason I am leaving this place is because I am becoming a home owner. I lived in apartments in Irving and Dallas for the last 20 years, and Covington Pointe is by far the best place I have rented. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

better clean up after their pets, has been a safe yard for my pup to play in. I love the location of the apartments. It sits back in a beautiful neighborhood that's really nice to walk in . I highly recommend these apartments.

property. As with most apartment complexes, each unit varies to some degree from what I've seen as a result of whether previous tenants took care of their units or not. For example, the unit I live in has new carpet because the couple living in the unit before me permanently stained much of the existing carpet. I know that other apartments have accent walls (a wall that is painted a different color - one of the possible perks you can choose if you decide to renew your lease). Other variations to expect: cupboard color, appliances (over, microwave), and washer/dryer. Some of the units have washer/dryer connections meaning they are not furnished with a washer/dryer. There are a select few that do have a washer and dryer available in unit but these come at an additional cost. I was fortunate to secure a unit with a W/D which adds about $30 extra a month to my rent (so $360 extra per year). This was very reasonable for me considering the convenience and the fact that I average $20-$30 in laundry cost when using a quarters in a laundry room. In terms of the monthly rent, I for one, think that it's very reasonable for what you get. Basically, you end up with more sq. footage compared to other more modern apartments in the area. I decided to opt for more space instead of fancier furnishings like granite counter tops, upgraded appliances etc. I figure, I'm going to be filling the space with things myself and while a stainless steel fridge, oven, etc are nice, if I'm cramped for living space it really doesn't mean that much in the end - I don't live in my kitchen! Ultimately you'll have to decide for yourself based on what you want :) The property management is very professional and helpful. At times maintenance requests take a little longer to complete than i would like, but, if I do need something pressing completed management will put in a priority request on my behalf. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with my move to Covington Pointe!

can be stuck open for long periods of time. The complex has a pool with beach type chairs and a grill. There is a laundry room near the rear of the complex that has 4-5 washers and the same number of dryers. They take quarters, so if you don't have a washer and dryer, be prepared for that. We live near the front of the complex and it's pretty quiet. The building we live in seems like it's mostly filled with people who work, so we don't have any complaints with noise or people loitering in the parking lot. I would say the complex is very safe and have not heard of any cars being broken into, even with the gate problems. Management(5 Stars)- Veronica is amazing. She is very friendly and seems to remember your face, even though tons of people go in and out of the office. I have not live in a complex with a manager as friendly as her. Apartment unit(4 Stars)- There are 2 one bedroom floor plans and 1 two bedroom floor plan. We live in the Amethyst floor plan and we enjoy it. The storage closet is HUGE. We are saving for a washer and dryer and there will still be plenty of room after we get them. Our only complaint is that the top floor makes our air conditioner work really hard. We set the temperature on 75-76 and it stays on 78. During the hottest hours of the day, the A/C will even rise a degree or 2 even though we still have it set lower. If we were able to sign a lease all over again, we would choose the first or second floor.
