Testimonials

Thanks for referring me to Seth Kramer. I went around today with him to look at some places and wanted to give you the heads up. Great guy. He really represents ICM well. He really listened to my parameters and showed me places that were realistically within them, but also was able to deal on his July inventory of properties that were normally perhaps a little out of my range. In any case, he went above and beyond, and I sense that he just does that as part of who he is, and I wanted you to know that, and to thank you again for helping me out.

My husband and I have had a great experience with ICM, right from the very beginning. We met with Seth Kramer when we were searching for a new apartment and he was such a blessing to work with. He made sure he got to know exactly what we were looking for and what our budget was, and only showed us places that he thought we would fit into. He was completely forthright whenever we asked him questions, and made sure we had all the information that we needed before we made our decision. We decided on a gorgeous apartment that we still live in today, and looked forward to moving in a couple months from then. When move-in day arrived, it was two days after our honeymoon had ended and we had just driven straight through the 20 hr drive from Colorado to Chicago. We arrived in Chicago and called Seth to get our keys. We had forgotten that it was Memorial Day! Luckily, Seth has a huge heart and left his family gathering in order to give us the keys to our apartment so that we could rest. Since then, we have settled in nicely and can't imagine living anywhere else. Renting from ICM has been so much better than any other rental company we've ever been with. Someone is always available to talk to us and answer our questions, and the maintenance is fantastic! We've never had to wait more than a day for any maintenance request that we've put in. If, for some reason, we were to move within the city to another apartment, it would definitely be to another ICM building. :)

Just wanted to say thanks for the prompt attention to the maintenance requests that I made the other day. I've been so pleased with the service of the maintenance people! I have lived at my current apt for the last two years and just signed for a third year, and every time I've made a request its been addressed in a timely manner so THANK YOU. I wanted to especially acknowledge the people that fixed my heat during the winter. I told him my heat wasn't working and he was at my house within 30 minutes and fixed the problem right away. This happened twice within the last two years, and each time ICM's workmen came over and resolved the issue immediately. thanks again, and keep it up!

New Tenant Questions Good Morning. I signed a lease this weekend with Brad. Thank you for your help. I was so impressed with the flexibility and efficiency of the renting process this weekend and I look forward to renting from your company. Thank you, Erica

Thanks again for making finding my first apartment in Chicago such an enjoyable experience--I had alot of stress and anxiety over it, especially after having such a HORRIFIC experience with an apartment search firm on Saturday. But, working with you in particular, and ICM has already been a positive experience thus far. I look forward to moving in come August 1st!

Bill, I just wanted to say Thank You for all your help from the day you rented me my old apartment on Wayne through and even past the day I moved out. It's just about 5 years and for the most part those years have been uneventful, which when renting is a good thing. BUT - When I did have an issue, concern or problem, you always got back to me and whether or not I liked the answer or not, you always shot straight with me and gave me the reason behind the decisions. I will tell ya' I think you're one heck of a professional and based on what I've seen from you as the true professional you are in your industry, I would not only 110% trust your judgment when it comes to matters of real estate/renting but on any topic I asked you about. You're a stand up guy and I just really wanted to take the time to say Thank You and commend you for everything you've done over the past almost 5 years. I will absolutely refer people to ICM and when I do I'll make sure they ask directly for you. Thanks again and I have one last favor to ask of you. Please either forward this on to your boss(es) or get me their e-mail addresses so I can do so. I think they need to know how lucky they are to have someone like you working for them. Thanks again!

Brad, Thanks a ton for helping me out, I wasn't sure who to contact for emergencies since Harvey was out of town. Some guy came over here (promptly I may add) and fixed the toilet! Thank you so much; I appreciate it! Sorry for bothering you on a Sunday. Enjoy your afternoon. Thanks, Josie

We will have Tony our building engineer clear the garbage for you. Seth +++++++ Hi! I received a voice mail today about garbage on my back deck. I was in an car accident over Christmas and broke my leg. Getting around...especially on stairs has been pretty difficult. I will be in a cast for a few more weeks. I have had friends help me out with getting the trash down but it hasn't always been expedient. I'm so sorry for the mess. I will make sure it is taken care of by the weekend. Thanks, Carolyn

Thanks so much! You guys are always prompt. Kyle +++++++ Kyle – I have called your building engineer Tony to take a look at this for you. He will try and get by today.

The oven isn't working and two of the burners aren't working. Thanks a lot, Kyle

Hi Pete, I just wanted to thank you for all of your help Thursday. The apartment is great and I can't wait to move in. I am leaving tomorrow. Thanks again & I'll see you on January 2nd. Sincerely, Lisa

We would just like to say thank you for sending one of your employees over to fix an electrical problem we were having, he was very through and did a great job. Thank you, Maggie & Michael

Tony - I just wanted to thank you for always helping me. The late / early panic phone calls w/ my toilet and etc, you have always handled w/ such grace! I truly appreciate it and I hope to have a brightened your day.

Dear ICM Maintenance - Thank you for doing such a great job caulking our bathtub a few weeks back - you always do great work! Sincerely

Thank you for your time & effort spent getting me a new working dishwasher! Nick and I really appreciate your patience and diligence... we absolutely love the apartment! Thank you!!

To whom it may concern: I am writing to express my appreciation for your quick handling of maintenance issues. I have rented from you fro about 4 years and the responsiveness of maintenance to my request is the major reason. Recently there was a plumbing problem with my shower and someone was there the next day. Previous requests have been handled similarly. Thank you for your efforts.

I've been with ICM for over 3 years and it's been a positive experience for me from day one. My leasing agent (Pete) drove me to 3 apartments that were all within my price range. I ended up signing a lease for the 1st floor 1BR of a huge coach house about a block and a half from Wrigley Field. I could see the jealousy in other Cub fan's eyes when I told them I could hear the stadium announcer from my backyard, while grilling a steak on my Weber. After I moved in, I faxed a list of minor repairs I wanted done to ICM, and all were completed within a few days. My next apartment was an ICM building too. Again, the few minor problems I had were faxed to them, and fixed within a few days. Recently, the in-wall AC in the living room died. I left a message with ICM at 9:00PM and they had someone out the next day. They left a message on my phone telling me they were going to replace the AC. Less then 48 hours after it died, I came home from work to find a brand new Frigidaire installed. With the owners manual and a little remote control in a sealed package next to it. While it is July outside, it's like January in my apartment. Overall, I have found their office staff to be helpful and their maintenance crew to be excellent. Problems have always been fixed in a timely manner and I know I will come home to find the door locked and the mess cleaned up after maintenance has left.

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know how great the ICM maintenance response has been lately. There has been a marked improvement in both response time and accuracy from when I was living at my old apartment. It makes things so much easier and I really appreciate the effort the maintenance team and ICM have put forth. Thank you!
