Money hungry, Liars, & Slum Lords: Will file Eviction without giving you knowing! Previous Employee and Tenant. Pangea or most recently known as CYM Living is one of the most unprofessional, dishonest, “money hungry” and shadiest rental companies in Chicago. It’s no wonder it owns so many run down shanty apartments in the most crime ridden areas. If you’re just starting your rental journey, this may seem like the best option, however the downside is you will live to regret it. I was a previous employee and tenant so I have first-hand experience with them. I was a tenant with them for 5-6 yrs. My final year renting was in April 2022. I lost my dad a few months later to cancer and fell behind on rent. I was transparent, and stayed in contact with the property manager at all times. I continued to make payments, whether it was partial or in full. Due to the family tragedy and less work hours I could never catch up and yes the rent was high to be on the west side. I continue to try to keep up with payments and in Oct/ November I was only behind two months. At this time I was not given any notice or anything pertaining to an EVICTION. That month I paid $1000 or more to them. It wasn’t until December where I was told my account was locked because of eviction proceedings. The property manager never gave me notice or stopped by. They continued to let me pay, thinking I would clear up the arrears soon. I contacted the local office she told me just pay, I said why would I if you claim you’re already filing an eviction, which I wasn’t even legally informed of to give me time to pay the full balance? I informed them I would fight them in court. I retained a lawyer, and saved my money and went to court. The AFFIDAVIT said they simply wanted me to vacate which I did to prevent further billing in January. They never put on the notice we wanted to recover funds. Per their court filing, they claim they told me in October! (BLATANT LIE) no one told me anything they continued to take my money then waited until January of 2023 to try and Sue me in court! The eviction case was dismissed in March because they knew they violated my rights. However, as I began applying for new units with other companies later that year, it began to come up on my credit file as right off for $6000 dollars. I didn’t even owe them more than $2200 at the time of the eviction filing. So although it did not come up as an eviction it comes up in as negative and derogatory making me miss out on various rental properties. I was very confused and livid because if they wanted the payments it would’ve been discussed with the lawyer to ensure I didn’t owe anything. They never put in their reports that they wanted money, just me out of the unit. I was already out of the unit so they could’ve simply added they wanted the back rent as well. They never did. This IS INCOMPETENT, manipulative, and VERY SHADY RENTAL COMPANY. Do not ever rent with them. EVER! Aside from that there’s no upkeep, mold, rat infestation, leaking ceilings, drug dealers everywhere. Just not a good company. They have no integrity or morale.

She very inconsiderate & spiteful. Mantance doesn’t fix things right & end up getting broken again & I get blamed for it & wrongfully charged . I explained that my daughter has autism & she was very inconsiderate & told me I might as well move out .

Mixed feelings Nice and quiet place, but the leasing agents and the maintenance tech are not helpful. There is still cold air and wind blowing into the living room through some cracks and gaps from the patio door and the entrance door. For sure I’m expecting my energy bill to be higher. For some legitimate requests I made I was told that the maintenance cannot fix them and that I can do it myself. I am somewhat disappointed.

Maintenance Men With Keys The apartment is fine. The building is fine. The neighbors are friendly and quiet. But one day while I was home alone with my kids maintenance took it upon themselves to put their key in my door and attempt to open it. Scaring me and my children. The situation could’ve turned out so bad , I could’ve hurt the men thinking they were trespassing. Walking into people’s apartments unannounced is extremely unprofessional and dangerous. It’s an invasion of privacy. I could’ve been undressed , my kids could’ve been walking around undressed. It’s just not okay.
