Wirtz Realty Corporation

Many members of my family and I have rented with Wirtz over the years, and we do not intend on renting with any other company in Chicago. We have had nothing but an amazing experiences with them. The grounds and buildings are always kept clean and tidy. Every time I have an issue in my apartment, I am able to reach maintenance and they fix the issue in a timely manner. They have taken many measures to maintain a healthy building community during the pandemic, and I feel very safe when moving about my building. All staff, realtors, building managers, maintenance staff, etc., always very helpful and friendly, willing to go above and beyond for their residents. I do not plan on leaving Wirtz any time soon!

Slumlords. I did not feel safe or respected while living there. I lived at 3270 LSD for 5 years, and each year things got worse, yet more expensive. The building is falling apart, and the company has a lot of turnover so things are clearly not managed well. They are trying to market themselves as “luxury,” but that means a lot more than a new coat of paint in the lobby. It means being attentive, proactive, and treating your tenants like valued customers. I had so many maintenance issues, and had to push every time to get them taken seriously. My apartment flooded after I reported an issue 3 times and was ignored. The floor had to be replaced, and it took 6 weeks. I bounced between hotels and friends houses while patiently waiting for the work to be done. I put in security cameras to make sure progress was being made, and one of the workers unplugged them. I reported this person, asked for an explanation, and got nothing. This man still works for them, and I rode in the elevator with him shortly before moving out. I upped my security afterwards, and caught multiple employees entering without consulting me. One left the door unlocked while I was out of town. There really isn’t anything quite like watching your landlord talk openly about how unpleasant you are, on camera, in your home, without permission to be there at all. Like I said- I did not feel safe or respected while living there.

If I could get this management company zero stars I would. They are nightmarish. I was a sub tenant on a 6 month lease. It wasn’t even six hours before I found two dead cockroaches under the fridge. Within the next three months I’d find seven dead cockroaches plus countless baby cockroaches in my unit and on the ground floor where my unit was located. I tried to bring this to their attention, and they kept denying the fact that there were any cockroaches in the building. I tried working with them and their pest control company but was basically told that they can’t promise that the cockroaches would go away. Thinking that they would understand that I was in an unsanitary living situation, I asked to be moved to a different unit or a different apartment building. They exclusively care about money and made it escalate to a point that caused extreme emotional and financial grief. If you want to lease with a management company that does not care about their tenants at all then this company is for you.
