About the Apartment People

With three Chicago-area offices, Apartment People has established itself as an important resource for Chicago residents looking to rent an apartment or condominium. Founded in 1984, Apartment People currently maintains seven-day-a-week offices in Lakeview, River North, and Evanston, providing potential customers with convenient access to the company’s services. By offering a efficient and cost-free service to potential renters, The Apartment People has become extremely popular with Chicago renters, with a strong reputation for experienced, caring customer service.

Renting an apartment through the Apartment People is a simple, streamlined process. The first step is making an appointment with a licensed leasing agent at the company, either via phone or online. Once the agent has been provided with the client’s personal search details, including budget, desired neighborhoods, apartment size, smoking- and pet-friendliness, and other key factors, he or she will draw up a list of suitable properties to visit. Apartment People clients don’t need to worry about key deposits or securing a rental car to visit properties: their agent will drive them directly to the properties, keys in hand, for a series of short viewings. If a client finds an appropriate rental, he or she can submit an application, credit check fee, and the first month’s rent for the approval stage (typically two or three days). Once approved, the client can sign a lease and pay the security deposit to complete the process.

The Apartment People’s database contains a wide variety of apartments, from studios to 4-bedroom units, in neighborhoods across Chicago. All types of apartments are available, including condos, walk-ups, brownstones, high-rises, lofts, and townhouses. While most of the Apartment People’s listings are posted within 30 to 60 days of their availability, the company has been able to help clients with as few as two or three days to move. To learn more about the apartments offered by Apartment People, potential customers are encouraged to visit their website, www.apartmentpeople.com, which features comprehensive listings of all the properties available from the company.
