Wrigleville DIY: For Rent By Owner

Wrigleyville neighborhood two-flat rental
Wrigleyville Duplex Down for 'Rent by Owner' -- $2395/month
























Not every private owner needs a Realtor to fill a vacancy. In a rental market with tight inventory -- like Chicago's West Lakeview or Wrigleyville Neighborhoods -- a landlady can simply place an ad in Craigslist, hang a .99 cent sign on the fence with a scribbled description, and if she's not smoking crack with her morning whiskey when she decides on a price, probably get the unit rented after a weekend or two of showings. Even in the 'Off Season.'

Below are the three traditional rental seasons in Chicago:

1) May 1 through April 30 the following year.

2) October 1 through September 30 the following year.

3) Off-Season (any 12 month lease that begins or ends outside of the parameters of 1 & 2 above.)

And if she is 'Pet Friendly', i.e., allows a dog or two-- then she can even be a little crack smokey on her rental price.

Still, there are several other (and more important) issues concerning the Application/Acceptance Process: Fair Housing, non-discriminatory qualifications & advertising, background & credit check, references, security deposit requirement per Chicago Ordinance, etc., in which case, the services of a Realtor may well be worth the usual/customary fee of one month's rent.

If you think you got all that handled then by all means, DIY.  If not, I'm a Chicago Realtor... let's chat.

Free Chicago Mobile MLS App

My Mobile Chicago MLS App






















I have a nifty new Chicago MLS mobile app that I'm happy to forward on for free.  Search for properties around wherever you're standing, or for any Active Listing in Northern Illinois.  It's a smart phone thing so you can text, tweet, or email me and I'll get it right to you. Then, just open the app in your mobile browser and click the link. Easy like Sunday morning.  Or, if your internet DOC is at a big fat desktop, then click the link below for the same results--only bigger and shinier. Perfect  for a 2 bedroom condo listings search.
