Racist management
January 24, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
My family and I went on a tour with Group Fox and had the most unpleasant experience I’ve ever encountered during apartment tours in my 17 years of living in Chicago. Ann Cort was rude throughout the tour, responding to our questions with annoyance and irritation. Initially, we thought Ann Cort might just not be a friendly person and tried to continue with the tour. However, Ann Cort was just racist and being rude to us. We are Asians, and out of the blue, Ann Cort commented that we ‘smelled like ...
garlic.’ We were too shocked to respond and tried to laugh it off. Yet, Ann Cort persisted, repeatedly asking who had eaten garlic and where the smell was coming from. Not knowing how to respond, we just said that none of us had eaten garlic or anything at all yet today before coming to the tour and asked if it might be her. Ann became offended and responded that she ‘never eats such a thing’ in a degrading tone as if garlic was something ‘her people’ would not eat. It was clear that she was not asking the question with a good intention when she became offended when we asked her back. I have not experienced much racism in real life and certainly did not expect to encounter it during an apartment tour. I should have read the reviews before going on the tour. I would not recommend this place, especially if you are Asian.
