Good experience – I used Chicago Apartment Finders to rent out an apartment in a building I own. The agent found a good tenant and the office worked out a longer lease so that I did not end up with a lease expiring during the winter. I would go back to Chicago Apartment Finders again next time I need to get an apartment rented. My experience was positive.

Terrible service, do not go to Margaret at the Lakeview office. – My appointment with the chicago apartment finders was a nightmare. I made an appointment four days in advance but when I got there no one had been assigned to help me, I ended up waiting for about 25 minutes in the lobby. The receptionist was a complete airhead who had terrible communication skills, but the agent Margaret was even worse! We spent two and a half hours looking at two apartments that didn't even fit my criteria. She was unorganized and unprofessi... read more

DO NOT JUST WALK IN! – Our landlord has our apartment listed with Chicago Apartment Finders. On Sunday afternoon, they showed up at my door with a prospective tenant.

Our landlord did not give them to key to come... read more

AVOID!! – I would stay away from this place. There are many other service that are much better and much more friendly. In the process of looking for an apartment, we looked at many of these services. This one was the worst. Chicago Apartment Finders did not return my calls for an appointment and then accused me of lying when we stopped in to look for an apartment. They would not accept us as a walk-in, even after their mistake. The manager who spoke to me was rude, and had no customer service skills. We ultimately rented fro... read more

Very Aggresive and creepy apartments – I just felt I was very rushed and was also pressured after seeing three places because my agent had another client he wanted to go work with again. The apartments were very creepy and felt that I was being duped (I've seen a lot of apartments in chicago after living here for several years) so just had a very bad experience.
