Stay away from SG Estate Properties

July 24, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
Never leasing with property owned by SG Real Estate ever again. Had a roommate violating several lease terms that costed my safety, and the property management chalked it up to a roommate dispute, even with all the documentation I gave them. If you look up one of their sister buildings called The Lair at Berkeley and read their reviews on yelp, you will be disdained.
