Nothing. Properties pay locators to fill their units, usually a share of the first month’s rent, and only once you have signed and moved in. None of it is added to your rent.

Living in Flower Mound
Where the name comes from, why it is a town, and the lake on its southern side. Rents are in the next section.
The town takes its name from a 12.5-acre hill about 50 feet high, near FM 3040 and FM 2499. Peters Colony settlers named it for the hill, which was covered in Indian paintbrush.
A town since 1961
Residents voted to incorporate in February 1961, to keep the area from being annexed by Irving. Flower Mound is still, officially, a town.
Grapevine Lake and Marshall Creek form much of the town’s southern boundary. Almost all of Flower Mound is in Denton County, with small areas in Tarrant County.

Lakeside
confirm: section name proposed by the plan; the owner confirms
Lakeside is the 265-acre Lakeside Business District at the southern edge of Flower Mound, near Grapevine Lake. The town has zoned the land for a mix of commercial and residential uses.
Lakeside Parkway runs east from Long Prairie Road (FM 2499) across this part of town. The lake begins about a mile to the west: about 7,280 acres of water, built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on Denton Creek, with the 9-mile Northshore Trail along its north shore and Twin Coves Park, which the town runs, offering RV sites, cabins and a boat ramp.
Start here if you fly often or work south of the lake. DFW Airport is about 22 min by car away, and Las Colinas in Irving about 26 min by car. Downtown Grapevine, with the TEXRail station on Main Street, is about 26 min by car south by road.
Drive times from the center of town, without traffic, checked October 2026; rush hour adds time. The real number depends on where you live, so we time it from each address we send you.
