Tips For Finding Chicago Corporate Housing

By Rosemary McDonough


While finding decent accommodations is a breeze in the Windy City, there's a bit of a problem of plenty. Even in the case of those who are specifically seeking only Chicago corporate housing, it can be a challenge to choose the right property out of thousands of listings. Price and location are no doubt primary factors, but within those parameters it's important to get a place offering adequate space and all the facilities and amenities one expects in a home.


Since these properties come fully furnished and are ready for renters to move in at any time they want, the main issue to consider is the location. The Loop is a popular choice that most business executives prefer. Outside the Loop, there are plenty of downtown properties in the Near West Side, Near North Side and Near South Side areas.

These four areas together make up Chicago's downtown. Most people who need short-term rentals for a couple of weeks or months will be staying somewhere in one of these neighborhoods. It puts them close to all the major offices and meetings spaces and reduces commute hassles.

There's also the fact that it puts visitors in the center of the city's varied urban pleasures and entertainment. It may also be worthwhile to look for a property that's on or near the lakeshore. No doubt the view will be good, but it also ensures direct access to bike paths and other facilities on the waterfront.

Another factor that makes the Loop an appealing prospect is direct access to the vast open spaces and verdant greenery of Grant Park. Of course, everybody needs to find a location that is ideal for their planned activities while they are in the city. Once a specific locality is chosen, the price for properties within it will vary based on the size and the apartment type. It can be a studio, or have one to three bedrooms.

Almost every property in Chicago that is listed as available for short-term rentals offers unlimited local calls and wireless internet, in addition to HD TV with cable in all the bedrooms and the living room. Renters may expect to see DVD players, music systems and washer/dryers. Fully equipped baths and kitchens with all the appliances and utilities one needs in a home will be provided.

It's important to ask beforehand about parking and other common use facilities. A family with children and a pet may also want to find out about the landlord's pet policy and availability of housekeepers and other staff such as drivers and nannies. Follow this simple checklist to find the right corporate housing in Chicago and make the stay comfortable and hassle-free.
