TALK TO OUR RENTAL CONCIERGE

Ready to meet Your Chicago Rental Concierge?

Share your move-in date, budget, and preferred neighborhoods. We'll respond with a personalized apartment list or a quick call to ask any clarifying questions.

We work with private landlords, off-market listings, MLS listings and everything in between.

How It Works

From "Where do I even start?" to signed lease in days.

A dedicated concierge handles the legwork for you.

Step 1

Share your wish list

Tell us your ideal move-in date, budget range, preferred neighborhoods, apartments must-haves (gym, doorman, parking, pet-friendly), and non-negotiables.

Step 2

Get a curated property list

Your rental concierge sends you a list of units that match your criteria, with pricing, photos, availability, and pros/cons of each option.

We’ll refine the list together until it feels exactly right.

Step 3

Tours, guidance & lease support

We coordinate in-person or virtual tours, compare options with you, flag red flags in leases, and connect you directly with an apartment to secure your new home.

REAL CLIENT JOURNEY

From out-of-state search to signed lease in one weekend

“I was moving to Chicago for a new role and had one weekend to find an apartment. My concierge pre-screened 15+ buildings, narrowed it down to 6 that actually fit my wish list, and scheduled all the tours back-to-back. I signed a lease Sunday afternoon and flew home with everything handled.”

Renter Stories

What it’s like to have a Chicago Rental Concierge in your corner.

Real Chicago renters who used our Chicago Rental Concierge team to find their new home.

“I thought I’d spend weeks scrolling listings. Instead, I filled out a 3-minute form and had a personalized list in my inbox the next day. We booked three tours and I ended up in a building I’d never even seen online.”

Miguel · Moved to River North from the suburbs

“As a dog owner, I was overwhelmed trying to figure out which buildings were actually pet-friendly and near parks. My concierge filtered everything for me and even pointed out buildings with on-site dog runs.”

Lauren · Upgraded to a West Loop high-rise

“We were two roommates with very different schedules and commutes. Our concierge helped us find a layout that worked for both of us and a building that felt safe and convenient.”

Alex & Priya · Moved to Lakeview from out of state
