I lived in the property located at 3000 N Sheridan Rd from 2011-2016. Overall, this property is amazing. The door staff is friendly enough and the maintenance staff is friendly as well. I'll give a special shout out to Zi, he is one of the nicest men you will ever meet! Most maintenance requests were fixed within the week of request. Some units in this building were updated, others were not. Current rents in the building seem to be a little high; however the units are gorgeous and very large. I had a hard time moving away from this place but figured it was time to stop renting and to purchase something. Wirtz really seems to care about this building as it is well maintained. My only complaint about the building itself is that the windows are horrible. Original, 1920s windows that are rotten, and rattle in the wind. I made several complaints but Wirtz just doesn't want to spend the money on the 1,000+ replacement windows for this property. Also, starting in around 2013, the rent started to increase in larger amounts. It seems new management within Wirtz decided we weren't paying enough. This also was a big part of why I moved out. All in all, I really enjoyed living at 3000 N Sheridan.

They go through an extensive process of signing a lease but their properties are always well taken care of and the maintenance staff is excellent - they own some of the nicer vintage mid-rise buildings in the East Lakeview area. I lived in one of their buildings for two years and thoroughly enjoyed it. The maintenance staff was amazing and quick to respond to any problems that I had. They would even let me pick up packages even if it was after hours. Now - that's called super accomodating! No complaints here - I once complained about my oven and they replaced it with a new one!!

Don't even try applying if you are anything less than perfect. Difficult to contact whomever you're working with. Waste of my time.

Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, my wife got a job in Chicago. She had 2 weeks to find a…read moreplace to rent that was close to her future work location. I started looking for agents on the internet. You would think that being one of the top-5 biggest cities in the US, Chicago is an easy city to find an agent in. WRONG! Every agent I called turned out to be a either a douchebag who "did not do rentals" or an asshole who "had nothing in my price range". After a few hours of looking for an agent, I was convinced that I will end up having to rely on outdated Trulia data and take my chances with open houses during our 1-day house-hunting trip. I ended up cursing at myself, Chicago, and all its real-estate agents and did what I typically do when I want to cool down: filled a bowl with plain yoghurt and took it to my bed to eat in peace. After devouring the first spoon of plain yoghurt, I came across Stephen's number on Yelp. I was pessimistic, but that one spoon had un-pissed me enough to give another agent a chance, so, I said, what the heck, I'll call this one too. Now, this was a cold depressing Sunday afternoon, so, nothing could really cheer me up and I wasn't expecting anyone to answer anyways. Still I called anyways. He answered the phone asking me the exact kind of questions I was expecting "how close do you want to be to the loop?", "how do you feel about spending $100 more to get a place that's closer". He then took time to explain to me how real-estate market works in Chicago (it is VERY different than Boston and San Francisco!). We exchanged emails and he put us through the smoothest apartment-hunting experience anyone in continental US has experienced.

Had an awesome experience working with Steve at Missirlian Properties! He had contacts at every…read moreproperty and ensured I was totally happy with my new place. Will definitely be working with him in the future.

I could give Apartment People one star, I could give it five. It all depends on the agent that you…read moreget. I've had good and bad experiences with Apartment People agents. This recent time, I made my appointment, but I called to cancel - I had already worked for months with other places and on my own and found nothing good, so what was the point? The woman on the other end of the phone said "Look, I'm going to set you up with Russell. He's the best, and he WILL find you an apartment you'll love." I didn't believe her, but whatever, I didn't have anything else to do that Saturday. I showed up. She wasn't lying. Russell Corrus listens, knows the realistic expectations, and was so patient with an anxious, overwhelmed me. We spent a good chunk of time just talking before we even went out to look at apartments, and sure enough, I loved one of them and live there now. He was even helpful with my questions about the leasing application! So it all depends on your agent. I'm not discounting the one-star reviews on yelp; I've had a terrible experience with AP previously, too. But if you can get an agent who really knows the lay of the land - like Russell - you'll have a good experience.

After viewing an apartment in person, I decided it wasn't what I thought it was and I didn't want…read moreto pursue it further. I had submitted an application, but I hadn't signed a lease agreement. After waiting 3wks for the $300 refundable deposit, I reached out to the president, Eric Scholl, who had been helping me with the process. Attached is his response. Ultimately, he accuses me of working with the landlord to cut the ApartmentPeople agent out if the deal. He was supremely unprofessional and vindictive since I didn't choose their apartment. I understand everyone is having a tough time right now, but it's terrible to pass your losses onto potential clients. Thankfully I'm very happy in a different unit that I found through a different company. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I advise that you take the easy route and go with the many other good leasing company options in the Chicagoland area.

From day one, Brian made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable, clear, and even enjoyable. He took the time to walk me through every step, making sure I understood what to expect and felt fully prepared at each stage. No question was too small, and his guidance gave me a level of confidence I didn't think I'd have going into this. What stood out most was how much of a true advocate Brian is for his clients. He consistently had my best interests in mind, provided honest advice, and made sure I felt supported in every decision. It never felt transactional, it felt like I had someone genuinely in my corner. If you're looking for a realtor who will guide you, educate you, and advocate for you every step of the way, you're in the best hands. Five stars all the way!

Brian/Team Review To…read moreWhom it May Concern; As late-arrivals to Home Ownership, our nervousness and naivete were demonstrably abundant. We had scores of questions, many obvious or simply dumb...and plenty legit as well. We were acquiring an education on the fly. Thankfully we had as Allies, the kindest, most thoughtful, thorough, professional and forthcoming Band of Sherpas one could hope for in Brian Somera and his Fantastic Team at Coldwell-Banker. Their responsiveness was metronomically dependable. Their Service was sincere and utterly consistent (And I know something about Great Service having run Zingerman's Delicatessen for 11 years). Our path to our 'Forever Home' was circuitous. We looked at over a dozen properties. We bid on 3. Didn't get the first, backed out of the second after a scarifying Inspection, and Happily So, because the 3rd, the 'Just Right' place, checked every single box and felt like 'Home' the second we stepped in the door. Brian squired us around to all of them, gave astute advice and insight, gently nudged us towards resolution if we hadn't responded to a query or an E-sign, always with a comforting lightness and smile. We felt cared for. We confidently shared our Trust with He and his Team and could not have hoped for a better experience through this process. You couldn't wish for a better Advocate than this crew.

I thought he was genuine in his search for apartments. When I saw one that was perfect for me...close to work, reasonable rent, takes pets...I contacted him right away. I kept in mind he was a busy man so I made sure to write emails as well as leave voicemail. WOW! The very next week, the number was disconnected. Ok....so i left another email with the office. NO ONE got back to me. Not even to let me know the apartment was no longer available. No thanks to them, I found a place of my own. You guys do suck. And as far as calling a potential client a 'nobody', your professionalism is lacking. Im very happy I didn't go any further with you. Now that i know, personally, that you are racist, there will be a lot more business going to your competitors. ​

I was flabbergasted, since my rent is automatically deducted from my bank account and sent directly to my landlord from my bank. I called the landlord and, as it turned out, I had paid my rent, on time, every month. Who would've guessed? I sent Robert an email saying that, as a rental agent, he shouldn't be contacting me six months after I'm in an apartment, especially if he's going to be so rude and disrespectful. And wrong. He called me back and started yelling at me. He did not apologize. Not even a little bit. Funny thing is that when Robert first showed me the apartment he asked me to review him on Yelp. No problem, Robert. I'll review you every time.
