It hate that there are negative reviews of Rapid Realty - I actually had a really great experience with these guys (I recommended them to friends also moving from Chicago, who had a positive experience with them, too)! We were very picky (ok, we were probably a pretty big pain in the butt - but we hate moving, and want to be in a place for as long as possible, so we don't have to move every year because we settled on an apartment we didn't really like), and looked at (no joke) eleven apartments before we found one we could see ourselves in. Our broker was very patient, though, and carted us around without complaint. The closing people in the office were also great, and basically approved us on the spot (the Landlord came in the next day and we signed leases).\r

This was only the second time I worked with a broker (the first time was in Chicago, several years ago), but I have no complaints about my experience with this company.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Good Inventory, Found a great apartment
Cons: Looked at a lot of apts. before we found the perfect one (but that may have been my fault!)
