The best apartments I found were always by walking around the hood I wanted to live in or was already living in (other than a few months near Logan Square I never left Wicker Park/Ukrainian Village for 10 years) and answering posted For Rent signs. No criagslist, no ApartmentPeople, no bullshit. Just you and the landlord to deal with.

Ok, hey! We have an apartment in the garden unit of our building for rent, which we just renovated with a brand new kitchen and nice things like a dishwasher and LED light fixtures, in beautiful sunny Albany Park!Here is a link to the info: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/N-Sp ... 5424\_zpid/If having me as your landlord sounds appealing to you, you can PM me or respond to the ad.

I'd like to alert the fine folks of the PRF about an apartment rental that also would include access to a home/semi-pro recording studio.The building owner and I built the studio in 2005 and, after I moved away from Chicago, the partnership grew to include a third person. This third person has recently moved out. Ideally, we can find an interested recording engineer/musician to live in the apartment and join the partnership. (I still return a few times a year to record there.)The studio is fairly small, but just large enough to record a 4-piece band simultaneously and is well soundproofed, though you will hear some of what's going on in the studio from the apartment.The apartment is 2 bedroom/1 bathroom. Rent is $1000/Month. Cats are allowed and dogs are a maybe.The building is in the Logan Square neighborhood, right around the Armitage & Kimball intersection.The landlord is not a member of this forum, but is a damn fine human nonetheless.Please PM me for more info/details.
