We’ve previously highlighted one of the biggest mistakes apartment renters make: starting their search too late.
Many landlords have already identified which apartments will be available for August 1st rentals and others will know within the week.
Nimble tenants will be snapping up the best apartments and the best deals quickly in this tightening rental market, leaving last-minute apartment seekers to pick over the leftovers.
The late-in-the-game pickings can become exceedingly slim in popular neighborhoods for renters who require, for example, an updated apartment in a dog-friendly building.
When I visited 2756 N Pine Grove in Lincoln Park the week before last with Planned Property Management, one of our sponsors, the building had no vacancies for June and July rentals and a limited selection for August. You can visit 2756 N Pine Grove in the above sponsored video and see more of the location in this video.
If you’re thinking of working with a rental service you should be aware that many landlords work with rental services only for their hard-to-rent apartments. That’s just one of the many things apartment rental services won’t tell you but that you need to know.
