I'm beginning to look for an apartment and I'm looking for advice. What are some things I should know, like I want a place with a doorman and
utilities included, but what should I be looking for/considering?
Thanks in advance! |

Where do you live? That will make a difference I would think.

Look every way you can. Newspaper classifieds, apartment listings, craigslist and most importantly, personal refferals and looking on foot where you want to
live. Call all the management agencies around

Make a list with two columns: wants and needs
So you need a doorman and utilities included does it need an elevator? a dishwasher? covered parking? walking access to grocery stores? |

Thank you all! I'm looking in the Chicago area, if anyone can recommend any good/safe neighborhoods.
