We help you find the right luxury apartment in Chicago. One conversation, tours scheduled around your life, one application, Steve handles the legwork so you can search and tour stress-free.
Discuss your search with us in a private, broker-led conversation, your priorities, the neighborhoods you're drawn to, and your timing. From there, we build your shortlist from live availability, not stale listings.
Steve lines up the schedule and meets you in the lobby of the first property, guiding you through each building at times that best accommodate your schedule, so you can compare with confidence.
Found the one? We help you lock the best available special and get fully prepared, then we walk you through the application from start to finish, staying in your corner through approval and move-in day.
Most of our clients tour their top picks across appointments built around their availability, with the rest held as backups. Current specials, concessions, and availability are confirmed with each leasing office before you ever step inside.
Battista Luxury Group is led by Broker Steven Battista. We are a highly valued group, trusted by the clients who return to us and refer the people closest to them, built on deep Chicago market expertise across leasing, buying, and selling. From the downtown luxury towers to the neighborhood streets and suburbs beyond, we track the market building by building and block by block: new availability, concessions, price movement, and the homes quietly coming to market. That command of the market is what our clients are really hiring, a broker-led team that knows where the opportunities are before they are obvious, and negotiates from knowledge, not guesswork.
If you're a licensed Illinois broker, or you're finishing your license and looking for the right place to launch, Battista Luxury Group offers top-notch lead generation, real mentoring, and genuine team collaboration. We work with every property in Chicago and keep great relationships with every property management company in the city, and we stay on top of market analysis, data analysis, and technology, a very tech-savvy group, and one of the best at what we do because of it. We're a small Chicago team by design, and we grow by adding the right people, not the most people.
Our lead generation is working very well, and it produces quality leads for our agents, whether they're looking to work with renters, buyers, or sellers. Property marketing that puts our listings in front of Chicago every day, a website built around property search, and referrals from clients who remember how they were treated keep the inquiries coming. You won't start from an empty pipeline: you'll learn how leads arrive, how we follow up, and how a first inquiry becomes a tour, a showing, an application or an offer, and a client for life.
You bring the relationships; the group brings a brand that makes you look established from day one. Polished listing presentations, neighborhood guides, social content, and a professional web presence are already built and working, so your marketing looks like a team that has been doing this for years, because it has.
Learn the business the way clients actually experience it: the buildings and their floor plans, current concessions and how to compare true costs, touring with confidence, and guiding an application from first call to move-in day. Training is ongoing and practical, the Chicago market, taught building by building and deal by deal.
Work directly with Steve Battista, a licensed broker in the real estate business since 2014 whose clients rate him 5.0 stars on Zillow. Shadow tours, review deals together, and get honest feedback on your follow-up and your presentations. In a group this size, your questions are answered by the broker himself, not a help desk.
Small team, real backup. We work collaboratively, sharing what a building is really offering this week, covering a showing when life happens, and putting a second set of eyes on an application before it goes in. The standard is luxury-level service for every client, and the culture is simple: do right by the client and by each other.
Systems that keep you organized instead of buried. Our website's property search and chat assistant capture inquiries around the clock, and our templates and trackers keep tours, follow-ups, and paperwork moving, so more of your day goes to clients and showings, and less to busywork.
Tell Steve a little about yourself and where you are in your career. If it looks like a fit, he'll reach out personally to talk through what joining the group would look like.
How the search, tours, and application process work with Battista Luxury Group.
A leasing office can only sell you its own building. A broker works for you, across the whole market, whether you're leasing an apartment, buying a home, or selling one. Instead of visiting leasing offices one by one, you get one shortlist built from properties across downtown, the neighborhoods, and the suburbs, matched to your budget, move-in date, and must-haves, and we compare true costs (rent after concessions, parking, pet fees, and deposits), so there are no surprises at signing.
We track current specials and concessions building by building and confirm them before your tour, book every appointment around your schedule, and walk you through the application or contract paperwork from start to finish. And it isn't luxury-only: “luxury” in our name describes the level of service, not a price floor, first apartments, family homes, downsizes, and high-end residences alike get the same care. One relationship, start to finish: Steve builds your search, coordinates your tours or showings, and stays your direct line for renewals, transfers, and your next move.
No, it's the opposite. A single building's leasing office can only show you its own property. We search properties across downtown Chicago, the city neighborhoods, and the suburbs, and build one shortlist around your budget, move-in date, and must-haves, including buildings you'd never find on your own.
Market rent is the face rate on the lease, the number in the listing. Net (effective) rent is what you actually average per month after concessions: one month free on a 12-month lease, for example, brings the net well below the market rate. Specials change constantly, which is why we compare buildings on true cost, rent, parking, fees, and concessions together, not just the headline number.
Start with the inquiry form or a call: your move-in date, budget, bedrooms, parking, pets, and must-haves. Steve builds a personalized shortlist from current availability and confirmed specials, then books and confirms your tours at times that best accommodate your schedule. When you find the one, we help you get prepared and walk you through the application from start to finish, through approval and move-in day.
Most Chicago buildings release pricing and availability 30 to 60 days before a unit opens, so starting 45–60 days ahead of your move gives you the widest selection. Moving sooner? Current availability turns over daily, reach out and we'll work with what's on the market right now.
Every one we cover, 167 neighborhoods and suburbs, from River North, the Gold Coast, and the West Loop to Lakeview, Logan Square, Oak Park, Evanston, and Naperville. Browse the neighborhood guide or search the full collection.
Around your availability. Tell us the days and times that work for you, and we book and confirm each appointment with the leasing offices in advance, so every building is expecting you, with the units you want to see ready to tour.
Absolutely, many of our clients are. We start with a conversation and a shortlist by email so you can narrow the field from home, then schedule your tours around your Chicago trip. You'll see the right buildings, compare them with full context, and apply with guidance the whole way.
Requirements vary by building, but most ask for a government-issued ID, an application for each adult, and income and credit screening, commonly income around three times the monthly rent. We flag each building's requirements up front, before you tour, help you get everything prepared, and walk you through the application from start to finish, so there are no surprises at signing.
Not at all. Pet policies and parking differ building by building, and we keep track of both for every property in the search, your shortlist is filtered to places that fit your life, and we confirm the exact pet terms and parking cost before you tour.
Very likely, if it's one of the properties in the search, we can coordinate your tour and confirm its current pricing and specials. Send us the name through the inquiry form and we'll look into it.
Neighborhood guides, concession watch, and market notes from Steve, the same intel we use to build every client's shortlist.
Oak Street has almost no space left to lease, so the luxury brands arriving in the Gold Coast are opening on Rush Street instead. What that shuffle means for the blocks, and for the people who live on them.
The Bears are rolling, the Sox just gave the South Side an October to remember, and the Blackhawks and Bulls are back. Here's why game day belongs in your neighborhood search.
Two of downtown's most requested addresses, two very different daily rhythms. Here's how to choose between gallery-row energy and tree-lined quiet.
A month free here, a parking special there, concessions become available all year and are always subject to change, and the headline rent rarely tells the whole story. How we compare buildings on true cost.
Frank Lloyd Wright blocks, two CTA lines, and the largest suburban collection we track, 123 properties. Why so many downtown renters land here.
Chicago buildings price units 30 to 60 days out. Start at the right moment and you see the whole market; start late and you're choosing from leftovers.
Grand boulevards, a landmark monument, and one of the city's best dining strips, the Northwest Side's creative heart keeps drawing renters west.
Rent is only line one. Parking, pet terms, fees, and concessions decide what a home really costs, here's the checklist we run on every tour.
The city our clients fall for, penthouse views, the lakefront, festival summers, and the streets between. This is the lifestyle behind the listings.
All 167 neighborhoods and suburbs we cover, what each area is known for, its highlights, and a direct link to its properties.
Pricing, availability, and rent specials are confirmed with each building's leasing office and are subject to change without notice. Starting prices shown are the lowest currently published for each building as of the “last updated” date on its listing. Photos labeled “Representative photo” illustrate the style of residences in the collection and are not photographs of that specific building.
