Bexley at Silverado Review: 142 Google Reviews, 2x Income, and a 2025 Renovation That Changes the Math


Most Cedar Park apartment communities require 3x monthly rent in gross income to qualify. Bexley at Silverado requires 2x. For a renter earning $4,000/month, that’s the difference between qualifying for a $1,333/month apartment at most properties and qualifying for a $2,000/month apartment here. That gap opens up floor plans and communities that a big chunk of the Cedar Park market locks out.

We track pricing, screening criteria, and resident feedback across 60+ communities in the Cedar Park area. Bexley at Silverado sits in a stretch of Parmer Lane where it competes with MAA Cedar Park (0.25 miles away) and Latitude at Presidio (0.92 miles away), both of which screen at higher income multipliers. The 2x income requirement alone makes this property worth understanding. Add a 2025 renovation, aggressive concessions on 1BR floor plans, and 142 Google reviews, and there’s enough here to break down properly. Here’s what listing sites won’t tell you about what that combination actually looks like from the inside.

Two things stand out. The $65 application fee runs lower than most communities in this corridor, where $75 to $100 is common. And the property doesn’t publish a credit score minimum. That means the screening criteria section below matters more than usual if you’re on the fence about whether to apply.


Best For / Skip If

Best For

  • You earn enough to cover rent but not enough to clear 3x at most communities. At 2x income, a $1,054/month 1BR requires just $2,108/month in gross income ($25,296/year). That same unit at a 3x property would require $3,162/month ($37,944/year). If your household income falls in that gap, Bexley at Silverado is one of a handful of Class A options in Cedar Park that works.
  • You want a renovated unit at concession pricing. The 2025 renovation means some units have brand new finishes: white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash. Combined with up to 10 weeks free on 1BR floor plans, the Year 1 math on a renovated unit is strong.
  • You have multiple pets. Three pets allowed with no weight limit. Most communities in this corridor cap at 2 pets and many set weight limits at 50 to 100 lbs. If you have a large dog and a cat, or two dogs and a cat, this property doesn’t force you to choose.
  • You want a fenced yard at an apartment community. Select floor plans come with private fenced yards. That’s unusual in Cedar Park and genuinely useful for pet owners or anyone who wants outdoor space beyond a balcony.

Skip If

  • Construction disruption is a dealbreaker. The 2025 renovation is ongoing. That means active construction noise, limited parking at times, and sections of the property in various stages of completion. If you work from home and need quiet during business hours, this is a real factor.
  • You want a property with strong long term resident reviews. The Google reviews skew positive overall, but the most detailed negative reviews come from residents who lived there 1+ years. Patterns around move out charges and maintenance response during the transition period are worth understanding before you sign.
  • You need after hours management support. Weinstein Properties is a smaller, locally owned operator. That comes with benefits (the leasing team knows residents by name) but also limits. After hours support is more limited than what you’d get from a national operator like MAA or Greystar.
  • You’re not OK with a 60 day move out notice. The lease requires 60 days notice before your lease end date. This is longer than the 30 days many renters expect. Miss that window and you could face charges.

Location Deep Dive

What’s Actually Nearby

Bexley at Silverado sits on Parmer Lane where the Brushy Creek and East Parmer neighborhoods overlap. Residential on one side, retail on the other. The Shops at Silverado sits right next door at 12800 W Parmer Lane, so you’ve got a strip center within walking distance. Groceries are a short drive: H-E-B Plus! at 14028 N US-183 is about 2.5 miles south (6 minute drive), and Randalls at 1400 Cypress Creek Rd is about 3.5 miles southwest.

The 1890 Ranch shopping center (about 10 minutes south on 183) has Torchy’s Tacos, Chuy’s, BJ’s Restaurant, and a full spread of retail. Closer to the property, the Parmer corridor has a Starbucks and a handful of fast casual spots, but this isn’t a walkable dining area.

Residents clearly like the on-site dog park. It comes up in 11 of the 142 Google reviews, which is a high mention rate for a single amenity. Off site, Brushy Creek Lake Park is about 3 miles east with trails, a lake, and a larger off leash area.

Commute Math

Destination Off peak Rush Hour
The Domain (North Austin) ~18 min 25 to 35 min
Downtown Austin ~25 min 40 to 55 min
Apple campus (Parmer/183) ~10 min 15 to 20 min
Round Rock (IH-35) ~15 min 20 to 30 min
Austin-Bergstrom Airport ~35 min 50 to 65 min
Lakeline Station (MetroRail) ~10 min ~10 min

The Lakeline MetroRail station is roughly 4.7 miles south. That makes it a drive, not a walk or bike ride. Since the 183 North Express Lanes opened in early 2026, the southbound commute during peak hours has gotten noticeably better. For anyone commuting to the Apple campus or the Domain, this stretch of Parmer puts you in a good position.

Neighborhood Vibe

This section of Parmer Lane is quiet at night but gets traffic during rush hours. It’s not walkable in the way that Whitestone or South Lakeline corridors are. You’ll use a car for almost everything. The upside is space: the area is less dense than the corridors closer to 183A, and the surrounding neighborhoods (Ranch at Brushy Creek, Silverado on the Hills) are established single family areas. If you’re looking for a suburban feel without going all the way to Leander, this stretch of Parmer delivers that.


Pricing and True Cost

Floor Plans and Current Pricing

Floor Plan Bed/Bath SqFt Base Rent $/SqFt W/D
San Sebastian 1/1 695 $1,054 to $1,114 $1.52 to $1.60 Supplied
Grenada 1/1 722 $1,089 to $1,138 $1.51 to $1.58 Supplied
Madrid 1/1 809 $1,079 to $1,184 $1.33 to $1.46 Connection or Supplied
Salamanca 2/1 983 $1,409 to $1,630 $1.43 to $1.66 Supplied
Barcelona 2/2 1,122 $1,609 to $1,714 $1.43 to $1.53 Supplied
Sevilla 2/2 1,205 $1,614 to $1,835 $1.34 to $1.52 Supplied or Connection
Castellon 3/2 1,332 $1,919 to $2,084 $1.44 to $1.56 Supplied

One thing worth knowing about the pricing: fenced yard and garage options add premiums to certain floor plans. The Madrid with an assigned garage starts at $1,079, while the standard Madrid starts at $1,184. Why is the garage version cheaper? It comes with a washer/dryer connection instead of a supplied unit. Same square footage, different trade off.

Net Effective Rent: Showing the Math

The concession on this property depends on which unit you’re looking at and when you move in. We’ve seen it listed as low as 1 month free and as high as 10 weeks free on 1BR floor plans, with 4 weeks free on select 2BR and 3BR units. The range is wide because the property is actively adjusting pricing during the renovation. We’ll show the math for both ends.

1BR Example (Grenada, $1,089 base rent):

Conservative (1 month free on 12 month lease):

  • ($1,089 × 11) ÷ 12 = $998.25 net effective
  • Monthly savings: $90.75/month

Maximum (10 weeks / ~2.5 months free on 12 month lease):

  • ($1,089 × 9.5) ÷ 12 = $862.13 net effective
  • Monthly savings: $226.87/month

2BR Example (Barcelona, $1,609 base rent, 4 weeks / 1 month free):

  • Base rent: $1,609/month
  • Paying months: 11 of 12
  • Calculation: ($1,609 × 11) ÷ 12 = $1,474.92 net effective
  • Monthly savings: $134.08/month compared to the listed rent

At the best concession tier, that 1BR net effective of $862 puts Bexley at Silverado below most Class A 1BRs in the Cedar Park area. And with 2x income, a renter earning $1,724/month ($20,693/year) could qualify for a renovated apartment at that rate. We don’t see that combination often in this market. Confirm which concession applies to the specific unit you’re considering.

Fee Breakdown

Required (everyone pays):

Fee Amount
Application fee $65 per person
Admin fee $150
Security deposit Varies by screening results

Optional / Conditional:

Fee Amount
Pet deposit $200 per pet
Pet non-refundable fee $300 (first pet), $200 (each additional)
Monthly pet rent $15 to $25 per pet (sources vary; confirm with leasing office)
Detached garage $69/month
Assigned garage (select plans) Included in rent premium
Fenced yard Included in rent premium on select plans

The $150 admin fee is reasonable for this corridor. The $65 application fee runs lower than most nearby communities. Security deposit amounts aren’t published and vary based on screening results, so confirm the exact deposit during your application review.

On mandatory monthly fees: Most Cedar Park communities bill valet trash, pest control, and water/sewer as mandatory monthly add-ons ($25 to $75/month). Bexley at Silverado doesn’t appear to do this. Based on the listing data we reviewed, residents handle utilities (electric, water, gas) directly with providers. That’s actually unusual for this corridor, and it works in the renter’s favor. Confirm with the leasing office during your tour whether any recurring charges apply beyond base rent.

True Monthly Cost Scenario

A renter with one dog in a 1BR Grenada with the conservative 1 month free concession:

Line Item Monthly Cost
Net effective rent (Grenada, 1 mo free) $998.25
Pet rent (1 dog) $15.00 to $25.00
Utilities (resident paid directly, estimated) $100 to $150
Estimated true monthly cost $1,113.25 to $1,163.25

With the maximum 10 week concession, the net effective drops to $862, putting total cost around $977 to $1,027. No bundled mandatory fees is unusual for this corridor. You’re paying for what you actually use on utilities rather than a flat monthly charge baked into rent. Keep in mind that the net effective math changes at renewal when the concession drops off and full base rent kicks in.

Screening Criteria

Income Requirement Breakdown

Bexley at Silverado requires 2x monthly rent in gross income. Here’s what that looks like across floor plans:

Floor Plan Base Rent Monthly Income Needed (2x) Annual Income Hourly Wage (40 hrs)
1BR San Sebastian $1,054 $2,108 $25,296 $12.16
1BR Grenada $1,089 $2,178 $26,136 $12.57
2BR Salamanca $1,409 $2,818 $33,816 $16.26
2BR Barcelona $1,609 $3,218 $38,616 $18.57
3BR Castellon $1,919 $3,838 $46,056 $22.14

For comparison, most Cedar Park communities require 3x income. At 3x, that same $1,089 1BR would require $3,267/month ($39,204/year). The 2x multiplier drops the income threshold by over $13,000/year. That’s the single biggest qualification advantage at this property.

Credit and Screening Expectations

Bexley at Silverado does not publish a minimum credit score. That doesn’t mean there isn’t one. Based on what we know about Weinstein Properties screening standards at Class A communities:

  • 620+ credit: Likely smooth approval with standard deposit
  • 580 to 619 credit: May require a higher security deposit
  • Below 580: Higher chance of denial or conditions

These are general guidelines based on what we’ve seen from Weinstein Properties at this property class. The exact thresholds may differ. The leasing office can give you specifics during the application process.

What Gets an Application Denied

  • Eviction history (timeframe threshold not published; confirm with leasing office)
  • Insufficient income documentation
  • Felony convictions (specifics not published)
  • Outstanding balances owed to previous apartment communities

Application Process

  1. Apply: $65 non-refundable application fee per applicant
  2. Screening: Income verification, credit check, background check, rental history review
  3. Decision: Approval, conditional approval with higher deposit, or denial
  4. Lease signing: Admin fee of $150 due at signing

Resident Reviews Decoded

Review Pattern Analysis

We read through every review we could find on this property: 142 on Google (4.0 stars), 66 on ApartmentRatings, 43 on Yelp, 4 on Apartments.com (3.9 stars), plus the BBB profile (one unresolved complaint). ApartmentList had no verified reviews. Reddit, Facebook, and ModernMsg turned up nothing. Here’s what the patterns look like when you put it all together:

Theme Mentions Trend Source
Leasing staff quality (Troi, Ashley, Maddy, Victoria, Kimberly) 25+ across platforms ↑ Improving recently Google, Yelp, ApartmentRatings
Maintenance responsiveness 21 tagged on Google, mixed on AR → Split: praised for small fixes, criticized for major issues (AC, mold) Google, ApartmentRatings, BBB
Dog park quality 11 mentions → Steady positive Google
Move out charges 5+ detailed complaints → Steady negative Google, ApartmentRatings
Noise insulation (good) 3+ mentions → Steady positive Google, ApartmentRatings
Mold / air quality in older units 2+ detailed complaints → Concern for unrenovated units ApartmentRatings, BBB
Smoke on patios and grounds 2+ complaints → Steady negative ApartmentRatings
Management change friction 3+ detailed complaints → Clustered in 2024 to early 2025 Google, ApartmentRatings

The Staff Story

Troi Harris dominates the recent Google reviews. She shows up by name in at least 8 reviews over the past 7 months. The feedback is specific and consistent: informative, patient, personable during tours. Maddy gets similar mentions in recent months. Go back further, and Ashley and Meghan were the names residents kept bringing up, with equally strong feedback.

What that tells us: Bexley at Silverado tends to have one or two leasing team members who genuinely stand out. Good sign for the touring and move-in experience. But the real question is what happens after you sign the lease.

Where the Friction Shows Up

The most detailed negative reviews come from residents who lived here a year or more. And the complaints show up across platforms, not just Google. Four patterns stand out:

Maintenance on major systems. Small stuff gets handled fast. Light bulbs, minor repairs, quick turnaround. But bigger system issues are a different story. One Google reviewer reported an AC outage lasting over a month during summer. A BBB complaint describes an AC unit breaking 14 times, a dryer breaking twice, and black mold in a bedroom from an unfixed leak. An ApartmentRatings reviewer found mold on the AC coils at move-in and spent months trying to get the smell resolved. The pattern: routine maintenance works fine, major repairs drag.

Move out charges. We found carpet replacement charges of $1,000+ in multiple Google reviews. One resident who lived at the property for 6 years described the charges as excessive. The 60 day notice requirement caught several residents off guard.

Smoke on the grounds. The property is branded as smoke free, but that applies to the interior of units only. Residents can smoke on patios, balconies, and common areas outside. At least two ApartmentRatings reviews describe second-hand smoke drifting into units from patios. If smoke sensitivity is a concern, ask the leasing office about your unit’s proximity to common smoking areas.

Management transition. One Google review with 12 likes states that conditions “deteriorated since the management change in October” of the prior year. An ApartmentRatings reviewer wrote they would have rated the community 5 stars a year ago but “the changed management has gone down very quickly.” From what we can tell, the friction was concentrated in 2024 to early 2025. Recent reviews (2025 to 2026) are overwhelmingly positive, which suggests the transition period may be settling.

One bright spot across the review data: multiple ApartmentRatings reviewers praise the noise insulation. “I never hear noise from the neighbors beside me or behind me” appears in more than one review. For a 2006 build, that’s better than expected and worth knowing if you work from home.

Management Response Pattern

Weinstein Properties responds to nearly every Google review, positive and negative. The positive responses are warm but follow a template format. The negative responses acknowledge the issue, reference direct communication, and provide the property’s contact information. The responses are consistent and professional, but they lean more corporate than personal. We’ve seen this pattern across other Weinstein properties in the Cedar Park area, including Bexley at Whitestone and Bexley at Lakeline.


The Uncomfortable Truth

No listing site will write this section.

The Renovation Cuts Both Ways

The 2025 renovation brings modern finishes to units that were starting to show their 2006 origins. That’s a genuine upgrade. But it also means you’re living on an active construction site for the near term. Parking gets tight. Noise during business hours is expected. And not every unit has been renovated yet. If you tour a renovated model and sign a lease for an unrenovated unit, you could end up with original 2006 finishes at close to the same rent. Ask specifically whether your exact unit has been renovated, and get it confirmed in writing before you sign.

Move Out Charges Are a Repeated Pattern

We found at least 4 detailed Google reviews describing move out charges that far exceeded the security deposit. Carpet replacement costs of $1,000 or more. Disputes over what counts as normal wear versus damage. A 60 day notice requirement that caught residents off guard.

One resident who lived here for 6 years described the charges as excessive and recommended checking every detail of the contract before signing. This isn’t an isolated complaint.

Document your unit’s condition thoroughly at move-in. Photos and video of every room, every surface. And confirm the 60 day notice requirement early so you don’t get caught expecting 30 days.

“2x Income” Doesn’t Mean No Screening

The 2x income requirement is genuinely lenient. But it’s one piece of the approval process. Credit, rental history, and background checks still apply. A renter who meets the income threshold but has a recent eviction or outstanding balance at a previous community may still get denied. Don’t assume the 2x income means the rest of the screening is flexible. Confirm the full criteria with the leasing office, or let us prescreen you before you apply.

Unrenovated Units May Have Air Quality Issues

This finding only shows up on ApartmentRatings and the BBB. Not on Google. At least two reviews describe mold in AC ductwork and persistent musty smells in unrenovated units. One ApartmentRatings reviewer detailed months of back and forth with management trying to fix a mold/smoke smell in the HVAC system. The BBB complaint describes black mold in a bedroom from an unresolved leak.

These reports predate the 2025 renovation, so renovated units may not share the same issues. But if you’re offered an unrenovated unit, ask about the HVAC system’s condition and when the coils were last cleaned or replaced. Run the AC during your tour. If you notice any odor, that’s your answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the income requirement at Bexley at Silverado?

2x monthly rent in gross income. For a $1,089 1BR, you need $2,178/month ($26,136/year). That’s the lowest income multiplier among Class A communities in this corridor.

Does Bexley at Silverado accept dogs with no weight limit?

Yes. Up to 3 pets allowed with no weight limit. Breed restrictions do apply. Pet costs: $200 deposit, $300 non-refundable fee (first pet), and $15 to $25/month pet rent per animal (sources vary on the exact monthly amount). Dogs on upper floors are capped at 2.

What school district is Bexley at Silverado in?

Leander ISD. The zoning we’ve confirmed shows Reagan Elementary, Florence W. Stiles Middle School, and Vista Ridge High School. One note: Zillow lists Monta Jane Akin Elementary instead of Reagan. Both are real LISD schools. The difference likely depends on which building within the 300 unit community your apartment falls in. Verify your specific unit’s attendance zone directly with the district before making a decision based on schools.

Has Bexley at Silverado been renovated?

Yes. A 2025 renovation is underway. Renovated units feature white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and subway tile backsplash. Not all units have been completed. Confirm whether your specific unit is renovated before signing a lease.

What are the current move-in specials?

Up to 10 weeks free on 1BR floor plans and 4 weeks free on select 2BR and 3BR floor plans, on a 12 month lease. Concessions vary by specific unit and availability. Verify directly with the leasing office or contact our team for current availability.

How much is the application fee?

$65 per applicant, non-refundable. The admin fee is $150, due at lease signing.

Is Bexley at Silverado gated?

Yes. The community has access gates and a gate attendant.

What is the lease notice requirement?

60 days before your lease end date. This is longer than the 30 day notice many renters expect. Missing this deadline can result in charges.

Does Bexley at Silverado have washer/dryer in unit?

Yes. All floor plans include a fullsize washer and dryer. Some plans have the appliances supplied (included with the unit), while others have connections only. Confirm which option applies to the specific floor plan you’re considering.

How does Bexley at Silverado compare to nearby communities?

MAA Cedar Park (0.25 miles away) starts at $900 with a 3x income requirement. Latitude at Presidio (0.92 miles away) starts at $1,000 with a 3x requirement and a higher application fee. Bexley at Silverado’s 2x income and $65 application fee give it the lowest barrier to entry in this stretch of Parmer Lane.


The Bottom Line

The 2x income requirement, aggressive 1BR concessions, and 2025 renovation create a narrow value window at Bexley at Silverado. Net effective rents land between $862 and $998 for a renovated 1BR (depending on concession tier) at a Class A community with in unit laundry and no pet weight limit. That combination is hard to match in Cedar Park right now.

But there’s a trade off. You’re leasing into an active renovation with a smaller management company. Long term residents report friction around move out charges and maintenance on major systems that the touring reviews don’t capture.

This property makes sense if:

  • Your income qualifies at 2x but not 3x, and you want Class A finishes
  • You want to lock in a renovated unit during the concession window
  • You have pets (especially large dogs) and need a flexible policy
  • You want fenced yard options at an apartment community

This property doesn’t make sense if:

  • Construction noise during the renovation is a dealbreaker
  • You need a management company with 24/7 support infrastructure
  • You’re not comfortable with a 60 day lease notice requirement
  • You want a property with a long, consistent track record from residents who stayed multiple years

Bexley at Silverado is a property in transition. The renovation, the staff changes, the concession pricing. All of it points to a community working to reposition itself. For renters who time it right and lock in a renovated unit at concession pricing with 2x income, the Year 1 value is among the best we’re tracking. Whether the management catches up to the renovation investment by Year 2 is the open question.
