Quick answer: On Nov 2, 2026, we found five Dallas-area apartment communities advertising about 8 weeks (2 months) free on their own websites: Aster and Trinity in Dallas, and Cendana Craig Ranch, Heritage McKinney Square and The Sylvan at Painted Tree in McKinney. The Lively at Firewheel in Garland now shows 50% off rent on select units. The Alton’s offer (apply by Oct 30) has ended, and Collin Square’s 12-weeks-free offer was not shown on its site Nov 2. Most offers apply to select units and lease terms.

Aster is in Oak Lawn and Trinity is in West Dallas; Collin Square, Cendana Craig Ranch, Heritage McKinney Square and The Sylvan at Painted Tree are in McKinney, and The Lively at Firewheel is in Garland. Rents change daily, so confirm current pricing and specials with each leasing office before you apply. Prices not shown on a property’s site are left as “ask”; we don’t guess.

How do “2 months free” specials work in Dallas?
Most concessions are applied one of two ways: as free weeks at the start of the lease, or spread across every month as a lower effective rent. Ask the leasing office which one, which units qualify and the minimum lease term. Then compare the effective monthly rent: on a 14-month lease at $1,800, 8 weeks free works out to about $1,543 a month.
How to find move-in specials in Dallas yourself
- Check each property’s own website banner; listing sites lag behind.
- Ask whether the special needs a same-day or 48-hour application.
- Ask whether “up to” means only certain floor plans or lease lengths.
- Suburbs like McKinney often carry larger offers than central Dallas. See McKinney apartment specials.
What should I compare between these apartments?
- Base rent versus the total monthly price with required fees.
- How a special is applied (weeks free spread over the lease or taken up front) and the minimum lease term it needs.
- Parking: garage, covered or surface, and any added cost.
- Pet fees, pet rent and any weight or breed rules.
- Your commute at the times you actually drive it.
