We were looking for a short term lease in Oak Park area and requested some information from OP Apartments. The apartment representative responded quickly and since then has been very responsive and answered every question from initial search through a tour of the unit. We have not moved in yet but we are looking forward to it and hope the exceptional service continues!!!
