I m extremely disappointed with my experience at this property. Despite paying $1,400 a month, I ve had to deal with a neighbor allowing their dog to poop on their balcony. This is not only disgusting but also a serious health hazard. It s unacceptable that such issues are being ignored, especially given the high rent. I expected much better living conditions and management.

Please avoid this place a total scam with all the hidden fees they will add on your monthly rent. How do you charge gas fees for an electric apartment not to mention you pay the water bill for the entire building you live not just your water usage. PLEASE AVOID THIS PLACE

Hola a todos me mude aquí en abril del 2021 la primera persona en recibirme fue Yecenia ella me explicó todo el procedimiento para adquirir el alquiler y respondió a todas mis dudas ya que era mi primera vez alquilando, estoy bien agradecido con la administración y con Yecenia este es mi tercer año viviendo aquí, un lugar seguro, tranquilo y limpio.

Nice Staff and great maintenance response, the only thing I regret is I didnt get a chance to enjoy the clubhouse as much as I would have liked. The community is nice and always kept clean, I always wondered why it wasnt gated but theres only one way in and one way out so I guess I can understand that. Overall the apartments are a nice place to call home.

I love living here community is quiet its kept clean The only concern I have is the increase of rent and the water utility me being in a one-bedroom apartment in paying $100 a month on water bill that is insane when I lived in a four bedroom home and I didnt pay $100 for water utility its too many units in this building 18 to be having a high water bill of $100

UPDATE: 10/10/2023.PLEASE READ REVIEWS CAREFULLY BEFORE STAYING HERE. IM NOT A DISGRUNTLED EX TENANT. I AM TRYING TO SAVE SOMEONE FROM DEALING WITH WHAT I HAD TO DEAL WITH. ITS BEEN NEARLY A YEAR SINCE I MOVED OUT OF MOUNT VERON AND I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY DEPOSIT. I DID MAKE ANOTHER REPORT TO BBB & HUD. PLEASE READ REVIEWS CAREFULLY.... I PROMISE YOU IT WILL SAVE YOU THE HEADACHE AND STRESS FROM MOUNT VERNONS LYING STAFF THEY HAVE IN THE OFFICE AND DEALING WITH ALL THE FEES THEY CHARGE!!!! THEY DO NOT LIKE TO RETURN YOUR DEPOSIT!! FORTUNATELY I HAVE ALL MY RECEIPTS... EVEN FROM 2016 WHEN I FIRST MOVED IN AND ALL MY LEASE AGREEMENTS.. I GUESS THEY ENJOY GETTING SUED!! MOUNT VERON STAFF WHO READS THIS... STOP LYING ABOUT PEOPLES DEPOSITS AND KEEPING THEM FOR YOURSELVES. I HAVE RECEIPTS, I WAS NEVER LATE AND I AM OWED MY DEPOSIT. NOW WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM BBB. Stayed here from January 2016 to November 2022. Maintenance is awesome but the staff lie. I was never late on a rent payment or missed a rent payment during my entire residence at Mount Veron but they told me at the end of my lease I was 2 months behind on water. Thats a lie and a reason to keep my deposit. I was not even staying in the apartment for 2 months before my lease ended and staff are saying I owe 2 months behind... lie!!! I have all my receipts and will be taking my complaint to the housing authority (Update: after reading another review, Ill be contacting the Better Business Bureau BBB as well). Theres no way with their fees and the way they fee you to death that I would ever get behind on any payment because of all the fees they charge. I will never recommend this apartment to anyone. Please consider all reviews and judge for yourself. I lived there long enough to know how this apartment raises rates and fees. The maintenance however is great and respond quickly to any maintenance issue. I just wish I could say the same for the dishonest office staff.

PROS: For the most part, they are great apartments. The location is great, the buildings are nice and spacious, and the maintenance is good and pretty quick. The units look just as good in person. Theyre definitely one of the best for this area of DFW (bordering Duncanville, Lancaster, Cedar Hill, and south Dallas), nestled next to 65 and 20. Its surprisingly very quiet and peaceful. I like the fact that there are only two stories so you can avoid being sandwiched between an above and below unit. CONS: Not many amenities included in the fee compared to others who have same to lower fees yet include gym, trash concierge, and maybe even wine Wednesdays. There is a gym, but you have to pay extra. The rent is higher than comparable apartments in comparable conditions that are near downtown even. The extra fees range from $80-$100 in addition to the rent, while others have fixed extra fees that are the same every month in the $30/$40s. Your water bill is based upon the usage of the whole building that your unit occupies split amongst the tenants. Actually, you will receive 3 water charges that come from the usage of the whole building, splitting everyones: water service, sewer service, and HOT WATER ENERGY! No, this has nothing to do with the ENERGY bill that you already, independently pay that powers your unit, that you must have in place upon move in. No, this is a separate, private ENERGY charge for heating the water in the entire building. Moreover, I moved from out of state, they refused to remove the washer/dryer (which I pay to rent every month) despite me having my own; I had no where to put them; I ended up donating them to the Salvation Army, and received absolutely no tax credit for that on my tax return (2022) despite having receipt of donation. I had one terrible encounter with the property manager Lola Agar, who is unprofessional, seemingly incompetent, and a hothead. Which brings me to another point--you also have monthly admin. fees, where I guess you tip/pay the admin. to hang up in your face to show how much You Matter. Thankfully, there are some employees that are very nice and professional. However, its one thing to overpay, but its a total other to overpay to one who disrespects you. And in the words of Lauryn Hill--you might win some, but you just lost one. - From a verified resident on ApartmentRatings ADDENDUM: I moved out at the end of June, and its now Sept. 2nd and Im still waiting on my deposit to be returned. When I signed the lease, it was discussed as a year-long lease, however, they termed it for 13 months, which is more than a year. I didnt catch that at sign-up and they charged me for moving out 7 days before the 13th month they wrote into the contract. Even still, I they tried to cheat me out of my deposit by charging me for 14 days, instead of just 7. So, out of $1796 (deposit)--which I believe was unfair because my credit score as 814 and there was no apparent reason or reason provided to require such; nonetheless, I was on a time-crunch relocating for work and didnt contest--I only got back $468.22. After multiple tries to get someone and information at the office, I had to reach back out to corporate MULTIPLE TIMES to bring notice to the issue. Corporate had to ONCE AGAIN make contact with the property to get things done. So now, Im waiting on the rest to be processed, mailed, and received when this couldve been done right the first time. I was just informed today that the other amount is $576.86 and I should be expecting it soon in the mail. So, Mount Vernon has taught me the $750.92 lesson that I actually didnt matter, only my money mattered.

Don t waste your time or money here. These apartments are reasonable, however they are in the hood and you definitely get what you pay for. Random solicitors are constantly knocking on the door. Parking is terrible. Trash is thrown out all over the parking lot. Apparently there is a courtesy officer I ve never seen and have no idea of how to get in contact with. I m forced to deal with an obnoxious and loud neighbor from hell upstairs. The issue has been reported to management but absolutely nothing has been done about it.

Tried to get an apartment here. I was approved but before i was approved i was told they felt as if i was scamming and needed tons of information in which i had because I m not a scammer. I get the approval only for them to say i have to pay 3months rent just to move in. Wow now that s unheard of especially when i have a fair credit with renters history. Worst experience ever. Went from happy to sad real quick. Discrimination at its finest. I will not recommend this place at all. Waste of my time, money and approval. If I could give zero stars i would ve.

Beware of these apartments... I made an application for an apartment. I paid the application fee+$100. to hold apartment unit. I was told by leasing agent Jasmine if application denied I would get my $100. back in the mail within two weeks. My application was denied so I called the leasing agent Jasmine and asked for the corporate office phone number so I could find out when my $100. would be mailed she refused the corporate office phone number and told me it would be 30days before mailed to me. When they getting your money they tell you anything but once they get your money the story changes. I got a feeling that I might not be getting my $100. refund. I have contacted the BBB in reference to their tactics and filed a complaint. So dont trust what the leasing agent saying when getting your money back...

The absolute worse Property Manager (Laura Agar) Assistant Manager (Rachel Ramirez) and Regional Manager (Renee Curry) Ive ever encountered. Laura and Renee are throw backs from the Jim Crow Era! Very unprofessional, unethical and disrespectful. Particularly, of rent paying tenants/residents who bring to their attention legitimate matters of concern in a very respectful, professional and constructive manner. They retaliated against me in violation of my constitutionally protected 1st and 5th amendment rights and Section 92.331of the Texas Property Code. . I filed a lawsuit against the property manager as well as the entire leadership of the company. See Cause No JS22 - 00779H in JP Court Thomas G. Jones filed on September 13, 2022. Jury Trial Demand. There is a serious need to make a long over due management change immediately! A very nice property with plenty of green space. 98 percent African American. Mainly adults and well mannered and respectful families and children. After I filled my initial complaint against Laura with the U.S. Department of HUD and other Housing and Regulatory Agencies regarding their very racist conduct a, especially their lack of African American representation in the management office and utilizing African American contactors (landscaping companies, make ready and cleaning companies, etc.). Laura immediately hired an African American woman in the leasing office. A very nice and pleasant young lady.

I lived here for 4 1/2 years and I had no complaints until I moved out. I received my bill in the mail and they charged me over $1100 for parking near my apartment on the grass to move my things out. I sent an email letting them know I can pay everything else on the bill but lets discuss the $1100 for landscape fee. I did not damage anything they just saw I was parked there to move. No one responded back to me and the next thing I know Mount Vernon sent me to collections. Smh ouch! So now I am dealing with that. They DO NOT HAVE A SIGN that says you CANNOT PARK ON GRASS. I have seen so many people do it in the 4 yeras I was there. No one ever said it was not OK! Mount Vernon Please put a sign out because that is so unfair!

I usually dont comment on the internet, But Im the person who believes that when credit is due it needs to be known. Ive been here for almost 15 mo. My 1st interaction with Mt Vernon was a beautiful & sweet young lady named Yecina, she was so kind & helped me in every way she could,& to this day she has not changed, I can call & she makes me feel like she is there to make whatever Im go in through Top Priority & Thats what I love abt her, she knows my name & I love to hear her laugh when I say something silly. So I just wanted the Property Mangers at WRHREALTY, realize they have someone really( shining) for them here!! Shes a Jewel!!! Now I want to mention another beautiful access to The Mt Vernon staff & her name is Megan, Megan is new but she is sharp & on her game, she had been a sweetheart & such a help too me in looking for an upgrade in apt, she always said that she would keep me on her mind & thats what she did & ( guess what shes pretty) I love to hear her voice, anytime Ive called shes always been do helpful & she cares abt what happen to U as a resident & a person. WRHREALTY U guys have a group of people that work for yall Make sure U take care of them & they will make sure ur being taken care of as a Company!! Thanks for all U all do!!!

DID NOT LIVE HERE. BASED ON CUSTOMER SERVICE. Yecenia was absolutely amazing to deal with. She worked hard and was very prompt. I ended up going somewhere else that was in a safer and more convenient part of the area. This apartment complex does a hard hit on your credit (the other one I applied and ended up going to did not). Also, if you own a home and or have not paid to rent in the past 5 years, you will pay for it as they call it, if you have no renting experience on your credit report, you have to put a deposit down. This is absolutely absurd to me, they should just go off of your credit score if you don t show rental experience as they desire. Again, I didn t see this anywhere but here. Hope this helps someone.

Returned to my apartment after 4 days out of town for Memorial weekend. Noted hole in ceiling with peeling plaster and water stain along wall and damage to my personal carpeting and exercise machine along with the floor. This is the exact same location where the ceiling collapsed previously and was supposedly fixed. Had previously placed multiple work orders related to the same. Day after work order, received notice work order completed and upon inspection, hole and peeling plaster still present. Management insists on not compensating for damage despite known recurrent issue which was not fixed. This is on top of raising the rent by over 30% since moved into apartment.

Yesenia is amazing and the complex is beautiful and quiet! I just moved in and the community and staff are incredible! I will be calling this place home for a long time! Im currently pregnant and cant wait to raise my child in such a warming and lovely community.If you want peace of mind, peace and quiet and an actual staff that cares, then this is the place for you. These are the best apartments weve ever lived in and theyre worth the price! We have a 1 bedroom and its very spacious, and maintained due to the amazing maintenance that (get this) are on call 24/7 for emergencies!! They actually have been out to my apartment for minor things and the issues were fixed to where they didnt have to ever come back and redo it unlike previous complexes Ive stayed in!

I just called to get some general information about the community and spoke with Yesenia. She was incredibly welcoming and kind! I was calling for a general market survey update, and most times these can be very tedious for apartment communities to work with me on. Typically I am met with an unwelcoming attitude, but definitely not here! It was a pleasant surprise. If Yesenia was this kind and welcoming to me, how much more I am sure she is with her residents and prospects! Would definitely recommend checking this community out based on my experience with the staff!

Update: I have had to break my lease after being robbed at gunpoint walking from my car to my apartment home. I was planning to renew my lease, as this apartment community is beautiful. Maintenance responds timely to all requests. Plus, Nikita in the office is a gem. Unfortunately, I was not safe here. The security were not patrolling and there were no cameras on my building. At move out, I was charged rent and utilities for the entire month of February and days into March, despite not being there since the night of the crime in early February. I would have continued to live at this community if my sense of security had not been taken from me. Original review: I have been at Mount Vernon Apartments for a month now and absolutely love it here. If you re looking for a new place to call home, visit the office and speak with Nikita she s amazing!

I was upfront about my credit issues she said it would be no issue as long as i didn t owe another complex . Paid the 175 only to be told i need a co-signer which I ve never heard of when renting an apartment. So if your credit is not perfect regardless if your rental history is good do not apply save you time and money. I did contact corporate and they are giving me back the $75 as well so I m thankful for that ! I guess working for the government gives me some kind of authority!

I needed a fast move for a job transfer from Philly to Dallas. I chose Mount Vernon based off the reviews and distance from my job. I applied and was approved without even seeing the apartment. Nikita was very good in keeping contact via email or phone with any additional information that was needed to finalize the lease. When I arrived in Dallas almost 2 weeks later I came to Mount Vernon to view to property and apartment. Nikita greeted me with a smile and took me on a tour. I viewed the model I chose but was not happy with the size and layout. I thought why did I get into something without seeing it first. Nikita was quick to come up with another unit that she thought would be bigger and better for me. Move in day comes and the unit she chose was bigger, better and even a little cheaper!!! I took a huge risk doing it this way. I am happy with the apartment. Thanks Nikita for making this a smooth transition.

From the moment I came in I had a weird feeling. The staff looked at me like I had 3 heads. Come to find out, they were on lunch but someone forget to lock the door back (Strike 1). Nikita turned it around and seemed nice enough. But when I went back the next time with my bf, she was almost combative and not accommodating. That unit won t be available, I can only hold it for ..., that one already has a w/d (Strike 2). But since my bf really liked the place, we applied. $175-but still applied. (Too much money-Strike 3) No shocker I was approved as the primary app but bf was denied for only God knows why. AND we both checked our credit and rental history before applying. She nonchalantly tells me, we will mail back $100 to your address. Now, I wouldn t live here if my life depended on it, but I just wonder how an approved primary applicant can be denied for a co-applicant. Sounds fishy but everything happens for a reason.

I like my apartment. I was first disappointed that youre charged high fees, but thats every apartment complex. Maintenance issues are addressed timely. Ive lived here almost three years but will be moving cause the rent is too high for a one bedroom.

I applied to Mount Vernon Apartments online. I was approved. I was emailed to see if I wanted to move in on Friday, March 1st 2019. I did want to. I showed up. I was told I had to wait until Monday. I had to spend approximately $300 on a hotel for the weekend. Due to this, when my rent came due this month, April 1st, 2019, I am approximately $250 short on rent. I received a notice on my door Friday to vacate the apartment by the 6th of April 2019.

Ive lived in these apartments for 12 years. Never had a problem with the office personnel until now. The assistant manager is a great liar. Rather than give me my deposit back, she said I owed 116.00. This is a bunch of bull, my apt. was clean when I moved out. I asked her if she wanted me to clean the carpet that hadnt been replaced when I moved in, she said no, they were going to replace it. Now she and the maintenance guy said, they didnt remember. The water bill for my 1 bedroom apartment was 74.00. They charged me so much until they said, I owed them 116.00.. be careful of the hype.. smh

Beautiful complex, excellent customer service in every aspect. A professional staff that sincerely cares and appreciates residents. Maintenance is prompt and skilled and professional as well. If you live at Mount Vernon you look forward to being at home. The office staff exceeds any and all expectations! The best apartment complex with apartments that are so nice and very well taken care of they are better than any brand new apartment/home. I cannot think of anything negative about Mount Vernon. Curb appeal is an understatement and extends beyond the exterior. Extra feeling of safety with full time security patrolling the premises. Too many wonderful amenities to list.

The apartments themselves are great and beautiful however be ware, people are being robbed at gunpoint left and right. almost every night someone was being robbed walking from their parking lot into their apartment. Not to mention there was a shoot out that occurred while I lived there. i ended up moving elsewhere as I feared for my safety here.

Been living here since 2006 and the apartment are not the same. Was very nice in the beginning but over the years has gone down in quality. The maintenance is 100% but anything else is not good. They nickle and dime you for everything. Now they have the nerve to say the apartments are smoke free. I will not be renewing because things have changed for the worse in the last 3 years.

The property is nice, but I have to agree with the others reviews. Management was everything but nice, I just wanted some basic information. I was looked up and down, and then asked did I need some help.. Never took a seat because it was never offered. Did not like the vibe, so I will not be moving to this property.

Very expensive for a 1 bedroom and hidden fees, I just renewed my lease 7 months ago and when we did they went up on the rent, now 2nd time leasing and they are going up on rent again. They charge you for every little thing . Water, pest fee, garbage , sewer , we are about to pay close to $1,000 just for a 1 bedroom.

The reviews are so right. I called because I was looking for an apartment. A lady name Rose answered the phone. I asked her about the quality of tenants that live in the complex. She said I cant give you that information and no apartment complex can. I simple rent to whomever qualify. Well she has a lot to learn because just because someone quality does not make them a great tenant.

THESE APARTMENTS ARE OVER PRICED!! Every other week, something in the apartment breaks. I can honestly say these are the most cheap built apartments. They look nice on the outside, but we call the office every week to report and issue. The pipes are bad, the doors are fragile, theres a lingering mildew smell that makes me nauseous. My allergies have never been this bad. And the newest issue, theres black mold growing around, and they only painted over it! The office staff is RUDE. They seemed so nice before move in, but their attitudes make me cringe. I hate having to call them about an issue :( Theyre so bad, I have other people to drop off my rent just because I dont want to go inside and have them snatch money out of my hands. (like they always do)

They have most UNPROFESSIONAL office staff ever. I have never written a review on anything, but I just had to open account just for this! When I walk in to pay my rent, they just take it out my hand as if Im dismissed and stare at their computers. They dont make you feel welcome at all. Every time I call, they are always annoyed...like Im bothering them. Did I mention these apartments are cheap? Theres a fee for everything! A fee for the gym, pool, and just recently reserved parking...a fee for people who want to park close to their OWN apartment! Theres even a $10 fee for people making online monthly payments. Hey newsflash Mount Vernon, if you guys want to charge your residents so many fees...at least give us some professional people in the office to steal our money :)

Im afraid I have to agree with the ladies below me. The property looks nice but management sucks and are very rude especially Rosa. They are all very unprofessional and tend to get upset when you ask them to explain things or fix things. Youre leasing apartments so your expertise should be dealing with people but the worst people work here. When I moved in months a go i saw the courtesy officer twice and I have yet to see them since. They put a notice on our door saying that people are constantly breaking in and if we see someone carrying anything in their hands we should report it.. umm how does that help us? no description was given etc. I would not recommend this property to anyone. So happy that I will be moving out in a couple months.

The land scape is very beautiful however I have had multiple bad experiences with the management and Bug infestations that I ended up having to come out of pocket in paying for treatment which caused me to be out of my home for over 2 months and still had to pay rent (bed bugs) They took their time in taking care of the issue which made me feel that I was not a valued tenant. Right after that horrific experience I found a leak in my dining room wall and reported it and they never fixed the problem. It turned into Black looking Mold growing out of the wall. They took their time once again to fix it and all they did was spray it and paint over it. The carpet and floor was so mildewed I couldnt even stay in the apartment due to the smell . I had migraines and my child got a acute bronchitis . I finally got through after months of fighting and was able to leave because we couldnt live this environment that we were in. Very glad to be out of these apartments and hope this helps other families looking for a great place for them and their family.
