  1. Can anyone give insight as to why MAC managed property is to be avoided? Are they all bad? They do own a great deal of the apartments, if not them, where?

    You can look at the reviews:

    http://www.yelp.com/biz/mac-property-management-chicago-4 (People claim that the '5-star reviews' have been added by MAC!)

    OR

    I have heard it from many people who have been living there...

    All apartments can't be so bad (statistically not possible! :P)..

    But, its just my opinion from what I have gathered from people and net-reviews

  2. I mailed them, their reply: "Unfurnished 2-bedroom apartments are reserved for families with children." Only those with the "shared" tag are meant to be shared (and they are furnished)... If you are applying for a 2-bedroom shared apartment, you can either request a specific roommate or you would be assigned a roommate that is looking for similar accommodations.

    If you prefer to live in university housing, a room would cost you at least $ 700... Regents park and such places would cost you $ 700 - 1100. <br class="Apple-interchange-newline">On the other hand, if you go for the non-university housing, a 3 BR may cost $ 1200 - 1500, and that would be $ 400 - $ 500 per room. But, you just need to be cautious with this one and avoid things like MAC apartments.

    Anybody here is looking to share an apartment in a non-university housing place (My budget is max. $ 550 including utilities)? We can talk!

  3. Is any one else considering the university's graduate housing? any comments or thoughts?

    University graduate housing looks good!! I am not willing to pay for anything more than $500 and so I need to find a room for myself in a 2BR or a 3 BR... I guess marketplace.uchicago.edu would be more helpful for finding people who have already rented out a 2BR or a 3BR... But I guess, with university housing, we'll have to find roommates for ourselves, or do they manage that?
