This review is for Alexa Morgan, a Luxury leasing consultant with DAC. Alexa is amazing! I was in a situation where I had to find a new apartment, and quickly. Alexa was so receptive and clearly knew her way around the Chicago realty market. She found me the perfect apartment in a matter of days--not to mention, it was the first apartment I toured. She listened to what I wanted and went above and beyond to find the right place for me. I would recommend Alexa to my own friends and family, and certainly to anyone looking for a new apartment in Chicago.

Jodi is absolutely wonderful to work with. It’s like having a friend that is working with you. She cares about her clients. She answered all my question promptly and knew the market well. She helped me find the best deal and even negotiated to get me a better deal. Highly recommended!

Lauren Thomson, our real estate agent from Downtown Apartment Company, was AMAZING! I had connected with her a year ago and had shared with her our (me and my husbands) intention to buy a home someday. As soon as we felt like we were ready we reached out to Lauren. I am so happy we did!As a first home purchase the process seemed quite overwhelming. Lauren quickly eased our minds and addressed all of our concerns, and provided us with a great list of options to choose from for our lawyer and inspector services. She guided us through every step.She was clear, direct and knowledgeable. So much so that we were able to move into our dream condo in 45 days. Thank you Lauren!!!

Paulina Pacyna was an amazing agent. She was detail-oriented, welcoming, and professional throughout my entire apartment-hunting experience. Apart from her punctual responses to any inquiries I had about the renting process, she managed to find a wonderful place that fit all of my requirements while staying within my budget. Overall, we developed a good rapport: I felt very cared for and welcomed to the city, and can confidently say she is one of my new friends! She knew all of the building representatives and had a wonderful set of restaurant recommendations. Furthermore, she was often more knowledgeable about the units and apartment buildings than the sellers themselves! Her experience and dedication are only matched by her charismatic personality. I will definitely be in touch with her again for all of my renting needs, and will gladly recommend her to anyone else.

I had a very positive experience with the Downtown Apartment Company. I was out of state for the entire process but nonetheless was able to secure an apartment easily. I worked with Alexa and she was great - she toured a number of apartments for me and sent me a detailed report, pictures, and video of each. Best of all, I found an apartment I love. 10/10 would recommend!

I had the opportunity to work with Jessica Rogers on my recent apartment search, and it was a fantastic experience! Jessica was incredibly responsive, helpful and so efficient. She listened to what was important to me and uncovered options in my price range. She quickly arranged tours and it was clear she was a favorite of the leasing agents! She helped me talk through the options and make a final decision, and I am SO pleased with my new apartment! Thank you Jessica!

I could not be more thankful to Downtown Apartment Company for making my transition from Florida to Chicago as seamless and stress-free as possible. I worked with Lenora Caruso, who was super responsive, friendly, and helpful. She provided great apartments that fit my criteria, as well as provided video tours and addressed any questions I had about apartments I had found. Next time I move I will definitely be reaching out to her for her expertise again! Thanks DAC & Lenora.

Paulina Pacyna was amazing and so helpful! She spent a lot of time getting to know me and my housing needs and then sent me a bunch of private listings that fit exactly what I wanted. I wasn’t able to find anything close to what she had through apps on my own. She was also friendly, communicative, and quick to respond to any questions/concerns I had throughout the process. I am moving back to Chicago from out of state and she made the process SO much less stressful than I anticipated it to be. Thank you so much Paulina! Highly recommend!

Had a blast searching for an apartment with Asiye! After a quick phone call to talk about requirements and budget, she came up with a comprehensive list of options and we had my top seven lined up for viewing the next day. With each tour, she was able to better hone in on the qualities I was looking for in a unit/building and we found a perfect fit halfway through the first day! Also appreciated how she checked in throughout the approval process to help me revise my lease. 10/10 would recommend

Paulina Pacyna was truly wonderful. She was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and was very easy to work with. One characteristic that stuck out was her deep expertise when it came to understanding each buildings amenities and management companies. Often times, she knew more about the buildings than the leasing agents. Im grateful we got to work with her and I would certainly recommend her.

This past weekend I worked with Alexa, who recommended to me by a friend. She is absolutely phenomenal. I am from out of town and had only visited Chicago once or twice a few years ago. Alexa was very prompt to respond to my email and we were able to set up a phone conversation within a few hours. She listened closely to all of my preferences and ask about even more little details I never thought about. We kept in touch for a few weeks and she sent me a couple listings for consideration.When I finally met with Alexa this weekend I felt immediately comfortable, as if I was meeting an old friend. It was apparent from the start that she was passionate about her work and genuinely wanted to find me the best fit . She was also so kind as to drive me and my friend to all of the locations and play tour guide for all of the amazing neighborhoods in Chicago. During tours, you can tell that she has a wonderful relationship with all the building representatives. We ultimately viewed 6 apartments that day and I had so much fun. I also found the perfect place for me that suited my preferences in price point, location, amenities, and appliances. I ended up applying that night, and Alexa made herself available to me over the phone fairly late in the evening to talk over additional questions and guide me through the application process! Both myself and my friend were so impressed with her work that we ended up recommending her to others we knew that were looking for a place in Chicago. I cannot stress how grateful I am to have found Alexa. She went above and beyond, surpassing all of my expectations of what working with a realtor would be like. Please reach out to her, you won’t regret it!

I worked with Alexa who did a fantastic job showing me apartments in West Loop, River North, and South Loop. She is very personable and fun to work with. She knows the buildings and surrounding areas well and was able to answer all of my questions. I liked that she worked to get me the best deals on my lease and on parking. I would 100% recommend her. Im very happy with my apartment!

This past weekend I worked with Asiye and she was so incredible! I am making the move from NYC to Chicago and she was so good at providing a wide variety of apartments to look at. Throughout the viewing process, she quickly picked up on what I wanted in an apartment and adjusted the schedule/game plan accordingly. After finding the perfect apartment, she continued to follow up with me and help me through the approval process. I couldnt have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone!!

Asiye was great! She listened to what we were looking for, was extremely prompt and responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the buildings/locations she showed us. She found us great options in our budget, saw what we were clicking with and adjusted as we figured out all of the specifics we were looking for. She has an upbeat, professional attitude and made looking for and securing an apartment as stress free and fun as possible.

Ericka was absolutely AMAZING!!! I was so overwhelmed when I first started looking for an apartment in River North or the West Loop on my own. Eventually I realized I needed help and called Downtown Apartment Company (along with a number of other places I found on google). Ericka called me back within an hour and by the end of that day she had already showed me a handful of literally perfect options - The best part about the experience was that she somehow seemed to understand EXACTLY what I was looking for… Every option she showed me was literally spot on, and I never would have found them on my own. Other companies sent me endless, overwhelming lists of options that I could’ve compiled myself by going in apartments.com or something… Ericka was different in that she really listened to and understood what I was looking for and tailored the options she showed me to that - so that I was only seeing the ones that fit my criteria perfectly. Seriously she’s a magician!Can’t recommend this place enough (and Ericka especially)!!!!!!!

Weve had the great pleasure of working with Scott for our last two apartments, and he is incredible! Hes super patient, communicative, and easy to dialogue with.

My wife and I were extremely fortunate to work with Christian Gioulekas of DAC to find our new home. He is very responsive and punctual. It is obvious that he has great relationships with the building managers which makes the touring experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. More than anything Christian is a kind and genuine person. Thank you Christian!

I worked with Alexa Morgan and she was outstanding. I gave her my wish list and she delivered great options and I was able to make my decision that same day, which was difficult due to choices that were perfect for me. Alexa is very professional, knowledgeable and very friendly. After just spending a few hours with her I feel like I have a new friend. Thanks Alexa.

I rarely write reviews, but I also rarely have experienced the exceptional professionalism of working with the leasing agent, Asiye Bakirman of DOWNTOWN APARTMENT COMPANY. It is not hyperbolic to say she exceeded every expectation I might have had. Hands down, she is the most diligent agent in my 40 years as a renter. I found her personable, extremely intelligent, resourceful, and expediently responsive with email communication. Ive never had such a positive experience -- I felt she was engaged in my apartment search, that she supported me, was invested in my success, and gave far more than might be expected. You would be very fortunate to work with. She has my highest recommendation!

Got in touch with Jessica Odehnal from the company to help me find an apartment. I am moving from a different country so really needed a lot of on ground assistance. She was extremely responsive and helpful. Called up the building a few times for me, went over and took a video, and offered advice on the decision too. Great experience. Felt more like a friend than a client relationship. Would definitely recommend!

Paulina Pacyna was so incredibly helpful! I had worked with Paulina once before in 2019 and she helped me find a great apartment. When I found out I would be moving back to Chicago, I knew I wanted to work with Paulina again and she was as helpful as ever! I had a tight time frame to find an apartment and Paulina helped me navigate the process of looking at apartments and applying for the perfect place. Thanks to Paulina, I was accepted for my dream apartment! She made everything so easy, and having her drive us to appointments made all the difference. I hope to not be looking for a new place for a while, but when I do I will call Paulina!

My boyfriend and I worked with Riley Callahan to find our new apartment and had an amazing experience. We found our apartment within a week with her prompt responses and guided tours. We gave her a small list of what we were looking for and she provided us with multiple beautiful options that checked all our boxes and listened to our feedback on each place! Riley was incredibly knowledgeable about each property we toured and made the experience seamless. She also was so kind and professional throughout the whole process and overall made our experience easy and fun! I recommend her to everyone looking for a new place to call home!

My boyfriend and I worked with Laura Bernfield and both having done the whole apartment hunt more than once before, we can definitely say Laura made our apartment search SO much easier and we found a place through her 10 times faster than we would have on our own. She made our process much less stressful since she was on top of everything it made it more of a fun process for us. Laura was very eager to help and easy to communicate with and always had quick/helpful replies when we had questions. We knew we could get a hold of her any time of day which was super helpful when we had questions that had to be answered by a certain time. EVERY building Laura showed us was a great option and we were able to talk through pros and cons with her and nail down a winner. I would definitely recommend her to any one else who is starting the process because she was great to work with.

Asiye Bakirman has been so much help throughout my entire process of moving. She made finding an apartment easy! I told her exactly what I was looking for price range, location, amenities, etc. and she made it all happen. She came to tours with me or my roommate and made sure all appointments were booked in a timely manner. The quickness in her response to emails and text message also made everything a lot easier because I was never nervous about anything. I am definitely going to recommend her to all my friends who are looking to move in the near future!

My girlfriend and I reached out to Downtown Apartment Company after seeing all the great reviews online, and we were delightfully surprised at how accurate they all proved to be!We worked with Alexa, who was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was incredibly responsive, and a tremendous source of knowledge and insight into the city for us (especially given our lack of familiarity with Chicago). She worked hard to find the best option within our desired specifications and ultimately helped us to find our dream apartment in the city! She made the process so incredibly easy, especially given all the complexities of the pandemic. We could not have been more satisfied with the experience and could not have found a better person to work with than Alexa.Thank you so much, Alexa!

I worked with Asiye and it was an amazing experience. I am moving from out of state, and she was so communicative, attentive, and kind. We found me a place within 24 hours of our first conversation, and all while I am 400 miles away! I am so grateful for her help in this crazy experience! The place she found me checks all my boxes, and has everything I asked for. I absolutely recommend this company and working with Asiye!

Alexa helped us find the perfect apartment in 1 week! She is very easy to reach and responsive, and she put together a wonderful and thorough tour of apartments for us on such short notice.This was the first time we were looking at these Chicago neighborhoods, and Alexa showed us a great range of options. Sometimes, it seemed like she actually knew what we wanted before we did! Really, every apartment she found would have worked for us, and we are thrilled to be moving into our perfect place. Alexa went above and beyond to make choosing our Chicago apartment simple and efficient (and even fun!)Thanks so much, Alexa and DAC!

Riley. Friggin. Rocks. Youll be hard pressed to find another broker who balances measured poise in front of clients, and simultaneously CRANKS behind the scenes to make the juggling act look easy. Im fairly certain Riley never sleeps, which makes her commitment to clients abundantly evident. Riley, we LOVED working with you, and would strongly endorse your expertise to anybody we know. We feel a sizable debt of gratitude to you!

I never really write reviews, but I had the most positive experience with this company! The housing market is insane right now, but I was lucky enough to work with Asiye who was absolutely phenomenal and helped me find a place within 2 days! A friend recommended Asiye and she was very responsive and efficient. She sent me a list of apartments within my requirements (location, price, amenities) and sent me floor plans and pricing with concessions, contacted the buildings the next day and set up tours for the units I really liked back to back. She held my hand every step of the way and was so charismatic. She genuinely wanted to find me a good place and gave me honest industry knowledge which I appreciate. Only wish I contacted them sooner, highly recommend.

Jessica Rogers was my partner and Is leasing agent. She was a great help in searching and recommending appropriate apartments for us. However, the most impressive thing to me is that Jessica knew the questions we would want answered before we knew to ask them. Im not sure about everyone, but I know when I go on tours of apartments I can never think of all of my questions while I am there with the buildings leasing agent, partly out of nerves. Jessica knew what my partner and I wanted and asked the right questions for us when we didnt. It really made her feel like an advocate.

Where do I even begin! Typically, this phrase is reserved for a poor review, but it is just the opposite in this case. Having been out of state, I wanted to start looking early for an apartment because you never know what you’ll find. I was lucky enough to be connect with Laura Bernfield who’s a leasing agent for Downtown Apartment Company. Laura reached out after I inquired on an apartment to find out my apartment “wish-list”. After our 20 minute call the next morning, Laura set to work calling dozens of apartment buildings to find their availability and current deals. By lunch time the same day, Laura called me back with 6 different available apartments options matching my wants in a new place she found just that morning. After we reviewed them all, she set up virtual tours the same day! One of those tours ended up being the place I chose to pick as my new apartment. When I started this process, I never expected to find my dream apartment in less then 24 hours. But then again when you have an agent like Laura, anything is possible! I’m convinced there is not another agent in Chicago that works faster, communicates better, or genuinely cares as much as Laura. If you’re looking to move in Chicago, you have to get connected with her if you want to find your dream place. Thank you Laura!

I was relocating to Chicago from a different state and finding a place to live without being on site was stressful to say the least but Arlynn Riquelme with Downtown Apartment Company was super helpful and incredibly friendly throughout the entire process. I flew to Chicago for 24 hrs and she managed to accommodate my last minute requests to tour a few places which made a big difference in selecting a place.

If anyone is looking to find an apartment ASAP I would highly highly recommend Arlynn Riquelme!! She was super professional and above all she was very quick with it. She made sure we got everything we needed and wished for. She always responded quickly to any questions and concerns and made the whole process for us super easy. It took us less than a week to not only find our new home but get approved for it all because of her quick work. One little thing that we appreciated so much was that she asked if there was a piece of furniture we needed to make sure we needed to fit. She brought her own measuring tape and measured it in each apartment we toured for us to make sure it would fit. She went above and beyond for us and I can’t thank her enough. She’s amazing!!

If you need help with a search please request her, she’s a super star.

I worked with Allison to find a fantastic apartment in the Loop. Allison was incredibly easy to work with and picked up quickly what I was and was not interested in. She asked great questions that helped her hone into a well-curated list of apartments that suited my needs. Allison presented some fantastic options, all of which were aligned to what I was looking for. The icing on the cake was that the unit we landed on came at a fantastic price, and I certainly would not have come across it without her help. In addition to knowing the real estate landscape well, Allison was friendly and very responsive. I knew I could count on a response within minutes. I highly recommend Allison if you are looking for an agent that will find the best unit at the best value for you.

Going through this company, I was able to find a new home/apartment! The agent I worked with, Anthony Holbert, was helpful and friendly the whole time, and was always free to answer any questions I had. He took me on a great tour of the building and took a video of the unit I wanted and sent it to me- super helpful! Love his energy and that I could easily text him any questions I had :)

My husband and I are relocating to Chicago from Florida for a job transfer. We had very little time to find a place during high season when units were flying off the shelves, and working with Downtown Apartment Company made the process seamless and stress-free. Our agent, Cody, was a rockstar — he found us an extensive list of options that met all of our criteria within a day or two of connecting with him, set up all the showings, and kept us updated every step of the way as prices and availability changed. Cody dedicated his entire weekend to showing us every building we were interested in before we had to fly back to our home state. Not only is he extremely professional and knowledgeable about the city and its distinct neighborhoods — hes also super personable and a lot of fun. We definitely couldnt have navigated this process without him and his firm. Some of the options he presented us — including the unit we ended up choosing — we would never have stumbled upon ourselves. Highly recommend using DAC for your next apartment search.

I found myself really needing to find an apartment at the last minute. I called DAC and spoke to Ericka, who immediately listened to my interests and called back in 20 minutes ready to meet me at an apartment she found with everything I wanted and with a great deal. She was so professional, friendly, and went out of her way to help me. By the end of that first apartment tour I was working on the lease. Highly recommend.

Asiye did an absolutely fabulous job connecting us with an apartment that met all our needs. Her knowledge about each of the areas we were looking in and the key apartments to consider quickly allowed us to sort through an overwhelming amount of information and come to a quick decision that ultimately saved us hundreds per month. She clearly was our advocate at each apartment we visited, working diligently to get us the best monthly rate, making sure all the available apartments and offers were identified. I highly recommend working with Asiye - she is truly the best of the best !

I worked with Laurin and she was amazing and incredibly responsive. Right off the bat, she was able to find me an apartment in a gorgeous building, in a perfect location, and it even ended up being under-budget! Laurin’s knowledge, expertise, and overall kindness made her an absolute pleasure to work with and I strongly recommend working with her if you are looking for a painless and top-tier experience!

I had the pleasure of working with Asiye Bakirman! She was extremely friendly and accommodating throughout my entire experience with her! As soon as I emailed her (a friend referred her) she emailed me back very quickly, asked me all the necessary questions and provided me with many options including a link to the building, sq footage, and a floor plan along with any deals. When I chose the ones I liked, Asiye guided me throughout the whole process and did tours for me as I am moving from out of state. Any question I had about the units and city in general, she answered for me. She made my moving process SO easy and I am so appreciative of her!

Highly recommend working with Amanda at DAC. I was looking for a new apartment and she was able to present a whole host of great apartment options. I thought my apartment search was going to take a month or two, but Amanda was able to find me an ideal spot in less than a week!

I had the pleasure of working with Anthony when I was searching for my new apartment. He was both professional and assertive in my search and within the first tour he brought me through I had already found my next apartment due to him listening to exactly what I was looking for. Anthony even went beyond to create a personalized youtube video of our tour so that I could show off to friends and family. Seamless service!!.

Working with Asiye Bakirman was an awesome experience! She was very quick to respond and friendly in person and over email. You can tell she cares about what she is doing! She is flexible and quickly found me an amazing apartment. She worked around my schedule and was able to set up showings incredibly fast and has great connections. She knows the market and was able to pinpoint what I would like. Ultimately I signed with a building she had picked.She is professional but also incredibly personable! I had so much fun working with her and looking for places. She made a stressful experience into a great one. Definitely would recommend her to anyone looking to move!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Asiye - she is literally the best! I’m moving across the country so I was in a bit of a panic on Zillow when I found the number to contact for the company. I went out in a limb, contacted and she responded via text that night. She was super friendly, asked me what I was looking for, my budget, etc. and got right to work! She sent me video walkthroughs of several apartments, asked me which areas I was looking for and sent me a comprehensive email list of apartments, prices and areas with links to view all pictures/floor plans. Once I narrowed them down, she contacted them for me and we got some virtual tours going within a day! I loved one apartment in particular so I applied and am now approved. She was so helpful the entire time, answering any questions I had at any time (bless her) and was extremely knowledgeable. She even checked in after I applied to see how things were coming along and contacted the building for me to make sure they had everything I needed. Thank you Asiye for making my cross country move relatively seamless! You’re an angel!!

The agent who toured around with me from this company was Asiye Bakirman.Asiye was extremely professional and had well informed insight on all the apartments I had on my list providing both the advantages and disadvantages of each location without bias until I settled on a location that works for me. She helped me throughout the application process and I’m extremely grateful for her because she made my life slightly easier as I planned my move to a new home.Ms. Bakirman made it her mission To ensure that my application was sent on time and even maintained communication with the leasing office on my stead. I had my doubts having an agent assist me with touring for apartments but she proved me wrong.If you’re planning to move, I suggest you reach out to these guys for they can prove to be helpful. Once again, shout out to Asiye!

I was recommended Asiye by a friend and I am not even sure I can put into words how wonderful she was to work with. Within 2 minutes of reaching out she made time to call me to figure out what I was looking for in a rental unit. She is so proactive and responsive, I am not sure that she sleeps. In fact, she was responding to me past 11pm (which was fantastic). She quickly sent me a beautifully organized email with places that perfectly fit my criteria. I picked a large number of places to virtually tour and she made sure I saw them all early the next day. In about 24 hours I have my dream apartment picked out!Beyond her incredible professionalism, Asiye is a kind and warm person. She is extremely genuine and I could tell she really cared about finding the perfect place for me. I feel like I could trust her completely with anything.I am so grateful to have found Asiye and will definitely be recommending her to all my friends!

I worked with Paulina Pacyna and it was one of the best apartment-hunting decisions Ive ever made! She made finding a great apartment in Chicago so easy and was incredibly helpful and friendly. All I had to do was tell her what neighborhoods I was interested in and the features I was looking for in an apartment, and she found lots of great listings and set up all the tours for me. She was also able to help me find some really good deals on apartments that I would never have known to ask about on my own. I also really appreciated her caution around the pandemic - I definitely felt very safe the whole time even though we were touring apartments in person. Working with her was truly a wonderful experience!

We had the best experience working with Aysha! We thought we had done plenty of research and had an idea of where we would end up living, and then we learned so much from Aysha about different areas and building options, we ended up going in a completely different direction and found the best fit for our family. We are thrilled about our new building and couldnt have ended up there without this amazing service. I would recommend working with Aysha/Downtown Apartment Company to anyone moving to Chicago.

I had Asiye as my agent and she was wonderful! I could not have asked for a more fast, personable and delightful experience. She answered my call out of the blue from an online ad, took down exactly what I was looking for, and sent a very organized email of apartments that met my requires that same day! We set up a tour for the next day and she answered all of my questions along the way. Thank you so much, Asiye! :)

Alexa is absolutely the most amazing agent in the city of Chicago. You’ll feel like you are touring with your best friend instead of an agent. But a best friend who has extensive real estate and luxury rental knowledge. Alexa found me the perfect place that checked all my boxes for an unbelievable deal. She was patient, understanding of my laundry list of needs, and so pleasant! And most importantly never pushy! She was there for me every step of the way and I felt so comfortable with her through the entire process. I couldn’t recommend her more!

I was so impressed with Paulina Pacyna!! She was so friendly, patient and knowledgeable. She asked me what I was looking for, and made it happen! She answered all of my questions and I didn’t feel pressured into signing a lease after viewing the first available unit. She followed up with me and genuinely seemed interested in helping me find an ideal unit. She was such a pleasure to work with. What a gem!!

Jenny is an excellent broker!! I’m moving to Chicago, and despite being out of state, she was able to efficiently manage the whole process of looking for an apartment. She was so helpful in navigating the city and which apartments to look at and in which areas. She made organized spreadsheets that laid out all of the important criteria that made it incredibly easy to navigate. Most of all, she was able to accommodate apartment visits with only a days notice and I was able to fly in and find the perfect apartment in one weekend. I was even able to get a great deal on a new building. She is very efficient, organized, and really helpful. I recommend her to anyone looking for an apartment, especially people who are not as familiar with the Chicago area. She is awesome to work with and I highly recommend her, she made the process so easy.

I am so grateful that I connected with Asiye during my apartment search! She was easy to communicate with, understood exactly what I was looking for, and was very informative during our apartment tours. I dont think I would have found my dream apartment without her!
