Renting in Irving
Irving rent estimates vary by source, as in most metros -- 1-bedroom figures range from roughly $1,300 to $1,475 a month and 2-bedroom from roughly $1,630 to $1,789, with ApartmentList's August 2026 Rent Report citing an overall city median rent of $1,412.

Sources reviewed August 2026 put 1-bedroom apartments in Irving at roughly $1,300-$1,475/month depending on the platform (a general average around $1,300, ApartmentList citing $1,381+, and Rentcafe-style data citing $1,305 for a 719-square-foot unit); 2-bedrooms run roughly $1,630-$1,789/month (a general average around $1,630, ApartmentList citing $1,789+, and other data citing $1,692 for a 1,035-square-foot unit). ApartmentList's August 2026 report cites an overall city median rent of $1,412 across unit types.
Las Colinas Drives a Real Apartment-Heavy Submarket
Las Colinas's Urban Center is described in local real-estate coverage as offering high-end, contemporary apartment and condo living walkable to dining and entertainment -- a genuinely different rental profile than the single-family-dominated stock in Valley Ranch or South Irving. Anyone renting specifically for a walkable, amenity-dense lifestyle should expect Las Colinas Urban Center rents to run above the citywide averages cited here; a precise Las Colinas-specific rent premium was not independently confirmed to a reliable figure this pass.
Typical Lease Terms
Standard 12-month leases are the norm for Irving apartments, as in most U.S. markets, with month-to-month options generally available at a premium. Texas landlord-tenant law (Texas Property Code, Chapter 92) governs security deposit handling, notice periods, and eviction procedures statewide -- confirm current statutory specifics directly rather than relying on a general summary.
Renting vs. Buying Given the Tax and Insurance Picture
Renters in Irving capture Texas's no-state-income-tax advantage directly without absorbing the property-tax and homeowners-insurance costs that fall on owners specifically (see the taxes, buying-a-home, and insurance-hazard-costs topic pages) -- a real part of the rent-vs-buy calculus given Irving's roughly 3x property-tax spread across zip codes and above-national-average, hail-driven insurance costs.
