Then it only got worse from there when they refuse to fix appliances , replace appliances , and when they had to replace my entire bathroom floor in both upstairs bathrooms and replace the toilets and the showers . They also had to take out the fireplace and close it up while I was living there , after using the fireplace as a selling point . Then the pool that they always use as the main reason that you should pay so try Community fees and rent is almost always dirty , under maintenance, or closed . Then even if your heat goes off 28 times and one night they won't replace your furnace for 2 years and you'll freeze every night for 2 Winters. Then they will try to charge you for carpet and paint when you leave , even though the county there and requires the repaint after every tenant and replace the carpet every 4 years , and if the carpet was almost black even though it was beige when you move in , it is in need of replacement if you have been there almost 3 years . So once again illegal charges harassment and filth .

This review should really be broken down into two separate reviews based on my Grandmothers take on…read morethe place and my families since she has passed. I'll start with my grandmother's take. She lived in Chicago until she was in her early seventies, when health concerns forced her to move out to Elgin to be closer to me mother (her daughter and only child). She lived there for almost ten years, of which she called it the best decision she ever made. She as cared for, and met some great friends. Unfortunately she passed away about 5 years ago, but this is not an obituary. My grandmother wasn't a wealthy person, so the only real inheritance she was planning on leaving my mother/ family was this condo to sell when she passed. Which is why she made my mother a cosigner on the mortgage. $150,000.00 investment, she was absolutly going to have a cosigner so she could pass the unit down to her family when she passed.....It has been 5 years since she passed, and that $150,000.00 inheritance is now nearly a $30,000.00 debt on my parents now. While the unit costs $150K, there are monthly dues of around $1000.00 for house cleaning, meals, etc. Those didn't stop when the unit was unoccupied. So my parents were forced to pay $1000.00 a month to a property that was unoccupied. They put it back on the market for cost, but soon dropped their demand to $120K...no response... The challenge of selling these places, and if you take anything from this review have it be this (THE GREENS WILL NOT MARKET YOUR UNIT FOR SALE, THEY WILL ONLY PUSH NEW UNITS WHEN PEOPLE COME TO LOOK). And let's be honest, when looking for an assisted living community, you don't check Remaxx or Craigslist.. You go to the source. Had the people known they could purchase the property for thousands less, the property may have sold. Years went by and there was no action on the property. Thousands of dollars later, the price now stood at $29,900.00. On a $150K home, they were unable to sell for $30K, and the scary thing was, there was another unit for cheaper. My parents eventually hired a lawyer and stopped making payments, they've recently agreed to donate the unit to a local charity, thus removing themselves from the property, but still owing the $30K in monthly dues. They were given one last hope of lessening the burden then the Greens "Board" voted on if the entire amount could be compromised, and they were denied.. My grandmother's $150K inheritance was now a $30K debt. So do I recommend the Greens of Elgin? Yes and no. Do not purchase a new unit.. there are no benefits. Do your homework and find a used one, there are at least 10-20 there right now. And if you buy one, leave it under the occupants name. Regardless of what you paid, you will never see another penny back, and you will be burdened with the $1000.00 a month dues until the unit sells. It's sad to imagine a place that made my grandmother so happy, could financially decapitate her family. Shame on you Greens.. If you really gave a shit about the people who live in your property, you should show a little more compassion when they are gone.

Then you will walk down a hallway past the mailboxes to the elevators. My friend had a one bedroom apartment. The layout was nice if not compact, but my friend was happy with it. He especially liked how close it was to downtown Arlington Heights. From the hallway you could hear the neighbors being noisy but you couldn't hear from inside the apartment.

The people living in the building are very nice and friendly. Michael and Al with the staff are great people and very helpful. The workout room and pool are also a great addition along with the dog washing station. Now the negative aspects, the building is older and only has 2 elevators to accommodate hundreds of people. During the prime times or when someone is moving in you are reduced to long wait times which is annoying. The laundry facility although newer still does not clean the clothing and it smells when it comes out. Even fabric beads does not help. I suspect being high efficiency its a lack of water issue in the machine as the clothing barely feels wet coming out of it. My dishwasher never came close to cleaning the dishes even after pre washing them first. Another selfish and dangerous practice is the building manager parking her vehicle blocking the loading and unloading ramp that effects the elderly and handicapped people along with parking full time in the fire lane that is used for a ladder truck to set up and rescue people off balconies during an emergency. This was brought to her attention several times and she did not care enough for the tenants or elderly to move her vehicle. Entitled I guess and not setting a good example for others. Here's the big deal killer. The building is loaded with cell towers on various sides with some being 5G networks. One set of towers was located above my balcony and bedroom. These were installed secretly and tenants were lied to about what was happening. Myself and my dog began experiencing many health concerns that never happened to me prior. I hired a Midwest expert to measure the EMF waves and they were off the chart on her testing equipment. She stated she has never measured readings that high and suggested I move immediately. To be fair to the new owners purchased the building with the towers already installed. I relocated to a new building with no cell towers and could not be happier.

And then being told we'll don't put anything under it.

So being lied to and realizing they are covering up things to make them feel better. If this is what they consider luxury I don't want it. Be weary of this place. They are not what they say they are. So tired of being taken for granted.

My advice to anyone is to take the time to read through all reviews, and make an informed decision. During the coldest temperatures this past winter, I had no heat. It was less than 30 degrees in my apartment for several days. The first time I reported it, the maintenance ticket was closed with no update. The second time I reported it, I received several different reasons which ultimately landed at no resolution and I had the option of moving into another unit. They acted as though they were doing me a favor by offering this, and by granted my request to not have a penalty move out fee. I ultimately chose to part ways with Gates of Deer Grove because I didn't want to spend money moving at the risk of having the same experience twice. They refused to waive my final rent payment (which was only $459.92), and told me that they already waived the penalty move out fee... when they are the reason I had to move out. As part of my job, I oversee two departments that are responsible for resolving customer issues and providing stellar customer service. I have NEVER experienced this level of disrespect and incompetence.
