Our Review

Reviewers report widespread pest infestations, mold, thin walls, and structural failures throughout the community. Staff dismisses complaints and refuses accountability. Waitlists for low-income units stretch months without clear communication. Pricing does not match the condition of units.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Praised for
  • welcoming neighbors
  • responsive management (historical)
Watch-outs
  • severe pest infestations (rats, roaches)
  • mold present
  • thin walls and noise

  • structural damage (ceiling leaks, kitchen floods)

  • inconsistent rent raises
  • long waitlists for low-income applicants

  • affordable housing option
  • pet-friendly policy
  • on-site amenities (laundry, playground)

What to Know Before You Tour

  • Pet fees: $250 per pet; $250 non-refundable deposit; $25 monthly rent per pet
  • Waitlist delays: applicants report waiting 3+ months without status updates; position numbers moving backwards
  • Structural issues: kitchen ceilings collapsed multiple times; bathroom leaks flooded units
  • One reviewer waited since July 2022 with no contact; told position moved from 28 to 46 after a month

What Stands Out

Affordable Housing
Long waitlists with poor communication; rent increases applied inconsistently and without clear justification
pet-friendly
Pet policy exists but community pest infestations (rats, roaches) undermine the environment for all residents

Front desk staff earn consistent praise for friendliness and speed through applications, especially Renee and Destini. Yet recent reviews flag a troubling shift: new management has stopped answering phones or emails, maintenance work stalls, and roaches and broken mailboxes plague residents. When staff are present, they perform well; the complex itself appears worn. Residents who have moved in recently or visited speak warmly of the leasing process and note the location works for families seeking affordable housing in Oak Cliff. Those living here longer report growing frustration with maintenance delays, pest control failures, and what feels like declining accountability. The gap between leasing-time experience and day-to-day living is stark.

A 30-year-old affordable housing operator in Oak Cliff with sharp inconsistency: past residents praised Dornell and Britney Sinclair's responsiveness and clean units, but recent and older reviews paint a darker picture of pest problems, mold that persists for years, maintenance that ignores emergency calls, and a neighborhood marked by frequent police presence and violence. Parking enforcement appears harsh, especially toward visiting caregivers. The exterior has been worked on, but residents report the interior problems remain unresolved.

Fairway Village gets strong marks for staff courtesy and upkeep from satisfied residents, though a polarized rating spread (46% five-star, 42% one/two-star) signals inconsistent experiences. Staff greet visitors with genuine warmth, grounds stay well-maintained, and management responds to tenant needs; some reviewers note safety and a calm atmosphere.
