When Spaces was giving us a hard time with our application for the apartment, Jack worked with us to come to a completely reasonable agreements hat satisfied us both. We absolutely love living here. When we first moved in everything was in great condition and probably the best cleaning I've ever seen done by a landlord. Usually I find I have to go back and clean before I feel comfortable unpacking but we just settled right in. We did have some issues with odor with the carpeting as the previous tenants had undisclosed cats but RentGreat immediately came and fixed any requests we had the next day. Tom our maintenance guy is wonderful. He's incredibly accommodating and gets things fixed right away. He even takes off his shoes when he comes in to fix things which is awesome because in my last apartment maintenance destroyed my white rug only two days after I moved in with muddy shoes. In the first few days we moved in we were not fully unpacked and were shifting things around while he was in unit making repairs, and he offered me help. Overall they've went above and beyond for us so far and are truly the bomb-diggity.com of landlording. We're looking forward to living with them for many years.

Let me start by saying, I would never recommend doing any sort of business with the RentGreat…read moreAgency to my worst enemy. Unfortunately, I didn't have a choice as the building I was renting was purchased by a new owner who had Rent Great managing their properties during the end of my lease. As an educated and certified young professional working in forensics, this Company was screaming red flags from the second that they began communicating with me. Their website contained a page with staff names and the pictures of all the staff were pictures of babies. Nearly every email that was sent to me contained grammatical or spelling errors which I found extremely odd considering they claim to be an "accredited business."  I immediately felt like I was doing business with a bunch of uneducated children.  Before even asking me what I would be doing once my lease ended, they sent me multiple emails with move out instructions. I found it weird that this was the first communication I was receiving from them as the new owner. It took a turn for the worst when one day the power and heat in the building's stairwell, that the owners are required to provide per the terms of the lease, were not operating. This was the second time that this had happened in under two months. I emailed the new owners as soon as I noticed the outage as I feared that we would not have hot water nor heat for another 30 degree night. I also left a voicemail and submitted a maintenance request but heard nothing until the following morning. I received an email stating "you should certainly contact your former landlord and the former owners to ask why they have had this shut off even after we Transferred this service to our name. They are the ones who stuff of the power not us." Please notice the lack of professionalism,accountability, spelling errors, and grammar in this email. Given that they were new owners, I was confused why I or the previous owner would be responsible for finding a resolution. So, I called COMED and they informed me that the current management of the new owners had to contact them in order for services to resume. I informed the COMED agent that I was told by the new owners that I or the previous owner had to figure it out. The agent advised me to call the city to report the management agency. After the call, I emailed RentGreat expressing my frustration with not only the situation but the unprofessional manner that they were handling this. They quickly replied with the email attached stating that the situation was all my fault since I had called COMED reporting and outage, that I made the right decision to move out and that I was a nasty person. I was extremely taken back by the response considering this was coming from an "A+ Rated" Business on the BBB which they loved to share. It began to feel more like a threat and personal attack to ensure that I move out as soon as possible. I shared the email with my friends and family, and they were all stunned. Out of extreme frustration, a relative angrily called and confronted the individual that was sending the aggressive emails. Shortly after this call, I got an email informing me that they had received a "threatening and violent call" that they recorded and allegedly reported to the police. RentGreat "demanded that I cooperate with the police investigation regarding this matter." Before I finished reading the email, I received a phone call from a man named Jack at RentGreat who threatened that I cooperate with their police investigation and hung up before I could even speak. Minutes after the call ended, they sent me an email with a picture of my relative stating "They are assigning a detective from the criminal division to assist in this investigation" because their cowardly employee was seeking medical assistance for severe emotional distress signing the email "Sincerely, jk ." I couldn't help but laugh that their employee could hide behind a screen sending such unprofessional, malicious emails, but couldn't take it when it was given right back to her. If this employee is reading this, I recommend getting a real education and learning how to work in the field of business where you provide professional services to customers. I would also recommend growing some thicker skin if you're going to hide behind your screen firing off such vicious and hateful emails to individuals that are doing business with you.   If readers get anything from this review, I hope it is to NEVER do business with RentGreat. If you do, make sure you keep all the receipts of the comical yet unprofessional emails they will send you! It was comforting knowing that several other tenants in my building shared similar horrendous experiences with this company. Thanks RentGreat, you were so far from great! I look forward to never doing business with unprofessional, uneducated individuals like you ever again .

Working with Arlette Quiñones these past few months have been nothing short of amazing. We were…read morefirst time home buyers in Chicago and we had no idea on where to even start. From the first outreach to tour our first condo, I was immediately impressed by the timeliness of the response from Sam Shaffer at Chicago Properties Firm. He immedtiately connected us with Artette and I feel so lucky to be able to work so closely with her thse past few months. I can't speak highly enough of her and the team at Chi Properties. Her professionalism, honesty, integrity and hard work were very much appreciated and respected. She is very detailed, honest, and just so great to work with. From the first home she viewed with us, to the last, she remember every single detail of things we liked & disliked and as I sent her listing after listing until we found the one, she advised on before even going to the listing if we would like it or not. 10/10 experience with her and the team! When we decide to buy our next home, I will absolutely be using her and the team again as they made this process as seamless as possible.

I cannot rate David highly enough. He was our real estate agent last year as first-time home buyers also expecting our first baby. David was careful to explain every step of the process, and balanced perfectly the delicate line between supporting our decisions and preferences while giving us honest feedback about certain properties. He was incredibly responsive, always in-contact, and always found an answer for us when we reached out with questions. We never felt pressured to make a decision. Even when, earlier this year, we had an issue with our new Jefferson Park condo and needed consulting on our contract, he responded right away and went above and beyond to help us resolve it. David is also just a great, sweet guy. :) We are so incredibly happy with our first home, and we will definitely be contacting David when it comes time for us to make our next move!!

Home. That's the one word to describe my experience at 519 W Melrose Street…read more My now wife and I signed our lease in July 2020 as some of the first tenants from when SRE converted this building from condos into rental units. We originally did our tour and it checked all our boxes: a private balcony, central heat/AC (which is all electric), modern appliances, in-unit washer/dryer, a private parking garage for our car, and close to all the action and the CTA. We loved the apartment, so we went through the leasing process. The signing was straightforward and easy using Docusign. From there, we got the keys and started moving in. Immediately after move-in, the SRE Management team did some fantastic upgrades to ensure 519 W Melrose is a place to call home. Originally, we got Xfinity internet, but received an email saying we will now have Google Fiber internet included in rent! So we used this new internet for the remainder of our time here. The internet worked great and was fast (500 mbps up/down), with minor hiccups during heavy rain and storms. Soon after that, the management team upgraded the call box and building keys to be fobs, which allowed easier entry into the complex. Additionally, they redid the entire carpeting of the hallways, which made the complex look much nicer. These upgrades showed that management truly cares about the building and their tenants. In our five years of living there, we only had about three or four maintenance requests for minor items. For each request, the maintenance team responded immediately and they were always out the next morning to fix the issues. The maintenance team was always super friendly and I enjoyed seeing them - huge shoutout to Amanda for running the requests, and Christian, Neil, and the rest of the amazing maintenance team for being great to work with and talk to. For the five years living there, SRE never raised rent an unreasonable amount - each year it did increase nominally, but moved according to the market rate. We were blessed to find an affordable apartment that checked all of our boxes. Our neighbors were okay - some seem to care about others, some seem to just be annoyed with everything or don't take care of things. Typical for a big city complex. We didn't make much of an effort to meet anyone in our building; however, with the encounters in the public spaces, everyone seemed friendly. Given that the building does not have concrete separating units, occasionally, you could hear your neighbors through the walls/floors. It was never an issue though, even when some of the neighbors are louder at times. Again, just something you get used to living in a large city, and nothing against the complex overall. I've lived in many different apartments and houses over the years, and this apartment was the only place I have had the feeling of "home" since living with my parents as a kid. It is incredibly bittersweet to leave our home at 519 W Melrose, but we started to outgrow our little apartment, as our small family is now growing. If you are reading this review to see if you should sign here, do not hesitate. 519 W Melrose has been the best place I've lived, and SRE has been the best management and maintenance team I have ever rented from. Thank you, SRE and your incredible team, for making my wife and I truly feel like we are at home.

I was worried as we began our search that we would have an agent that would pressure us into a quick sale, but that is not the way Adam does business. He was incredibly responsive, working quickly to set up showings at times that fit our schedule. On site, he was honest about the pros and cons of each property, and was understanding when we had additional questions or wanted to extend our search. In particular, his knowledge of the city and background as a contractor helped us to get a full picture of each property that we visited. It was very comforting to know that he put our interests first. On our condo sale, Adam helped us put our best foot forward and was able to sell at listing price within one week. He provided valuable feedback on the staging and negotiating process. Additionally, throughout the purchase and sale, he always had great recommendations for a photographer, inspector, attorney and mortgage broker for us. I strongly recommend that you contact Adam with all your real estate needs.
