None of them are printed on the sign. 01 ### The rent on the sign is not the cost Amenity, parking, package, valet trash, and pet fees separate two buildings advertising the same number. The gap is routinely triple digits a month. 02 ### Concessions are quoted in weeks, not months Six weeks free is 42 days. A free February is 28 days; a free July is 31. Monthly math breaks the moment the concession is not a whole month, and most are not. 03 ### Income decides approval, not the score Most Dallas properties want 3x rent in gross monthly income. Some run 2.5x. A few run 2x. Guessing which is which costs $50 to $75 per application, and applications do not come back. 04 ### Free rent can become a debt Break a lease early at most concession-heavy buildings and the concession is repayable. The clawback terms sit in a lease addendum rather than the lease body, so most renters never read them.

Stacy Road runs east-west through the center of town, connecting residential areas to US-75 and the surrounding suburbs. There is no DART service, no rail, and no bus coverage. A car is required for every trip without exception. The commute south on US-75 toward Plano and Dallas is the number that decides whether this address works for a given household. The drive from most addresses here to central Plano runs 25 to 40 minutes at 8am, depending on the specific address and departure point. That figure is different from what a map estimate shows at 11am. Ask for real drive times at your actual departure hour from the specific address to the specific workplace before two rents stand side by side. The Village at Fairview is the retail anchor, handling grocery and daily errands for most of the city. Heard Natural Science Museum is accessible with real trail access. Allen Premium Outlets is a short drive south on US-75. Our office is at 3102 Oak Lawn Avenue in Dallas, roughly 35 to 50 minutes south outside peak. Building stock ## Houses, Build-to-Rent, and the Apartment Shortage The honest read: if you are searching for a conventional apartment building with a management office and a standard application process, this is very likely the wrong search. Apartments are genuinely scarce here. Large-lot residential zoning drives the character of the city, and the rental inventory reflects that: single-family houses on large lots, managed by individual owners, make up the dominant supply. Some newer apartment product exists near the US-75 retail corridor, and that is where the conventional stock is concentrated. That supply is limited and moves quickly. Individual homeowners renting houses set their own terms on lease length, pets, parking, and screening. Terms vary property to property and are less predictable than an institutional operator's published criteria. Houses on larger lots and acreage may run on well or septic rather than municipal utilities; that changes the cost picture in ways that do not appear in the headline rent. Verify the utility situation before signing. Electricity territory belongs in every early cost conversation. Some properties in this part of Collin County fall in cooperative territory rather than Oncor, which means the Power to Choose marketplace does not apply at those addresses. Verify by service address before building any assumption around plan-shopping. If the requirement is an apartment with a formal process and more inventory, Allen and McKinney both carry that at comparable or lower price points, with far greater depth of supply. ## Fairview on the map Last updated: September 28, 2026 Answers ## Fairview questions Is my address in Lovejoy ISD? Lovejoy ISD serves much of the city, but McKinney ISD and Allen ISD each cover portions of the address map. The district line does not follow street names or zip codes. A Fairview mailing address does not confirm the district. The accurate answer is a boundary lookup for the specific address. We confirm the school district at intake for every property on a list. Are there actual apartments in Fairview? Very few. Large-lot residential zoning means most of what leases here is single-family houses, the majority managed by individual owners. Some newer apartment product exists near the US-75 retail corridor, but conventional apartment buildings are scarce by volume compared to Allen and McKinney. If a management office, a formal application process, and real apartment inventory are the goal, Allen or McKinney carries all three. We say that at the start rather than after a wasted Saturday drive. Is the property on a septic system or well water? It depends on the specific property. Houses on larger lots and acreage in this part of Collin County sometimes run on well or septic rather than municipal water and sewer. That changes the cost picture and the maintenance picture. Ask about utility connections before signing, and factor in electricity territory as well: some addresses fall in cooperative territory rather than Oncor, which removes Power to Choose plan-shopping from the equation. I want Lovejoy ISD but cannot find anything here. Where should I look? Lovejoy ISD is the primary search driver for this city, and rental inventory inside the exact district boundary is genuinely limited. If the school requirement is Lovejoy ISD and the supply here does not match it, narrowing the search to properties confirmed as Lovejoy ISD by address lookup is the most reliable path forward. We verify school district by specific address at intake for every property on a list, regardless of city name or zip code. What does rent cost here? Single-family houses here reflect the large-lot character of the city: pricing (as of 2026) runs higher per unit than conventional apartment stock in Allen or McKinney, because the product is different. The limited apartment inventory near US-75 offers a lower entry point. We send per-property figures with a verification date rather than a city-level average, because availability and pricing shift month to month and a list from three weeks ago does not reflect current conditions. Can you help if my credit or rental history is complicated? Individual homeowners here decide case by case on lease length, credit, and rental history. That flexibility varies property to property and is less predictable than an institutional operator's published criteria. For renters with a complicated situation, Allen and McKinney give access to far more formal inventory with published conditional approval paths, larger deposit options, and co-signer possibilities. Income is the number that decides it at most properties. We describe what each operator requires and never promise approval. Does the search cost anything? No. You pay nothing and your rent is identical to what you would find on your own. The community pays a referral fee from its marketing budget.
