I have worked with Andrew of SC Properties for close to 10 years both in their capacity as a property manager and realtor and recommend them without hesitation. They are very responsive, communicative, friendly, kind, professional and extremely knowledgeable re tenant and landlord laws/regulations, as well as the real estate market as a whole. Their property management reports are clear and easily accessible, they have found wonderful tenants for our clients and have successfully managed real estate transactions. Definitely recommend! read more

I am beyond upset at how this company handles business. I toured one of their properties, submitted an application, and was told that someone would be in touch regarding the next steps. I was also told that if my FICO score was not run, my application fee would be refunded. During the tour and application process, I made it clear that I was looking to move as soon as possible and that finding housing was time-sensitive for me. After submitting my application, I waited for an update but never received one. Over the next seven days, I called the leasing agent every day and was sent to voicemail each time. I left messages but never received a return call. I also sent an email and did not receive a response. I then called the main office and spoke with two different staff members. Both were polite and understanding, but the only assistance offered was transferring me back to the same voicemail box that had already gone unanswered. Today I found out that the property is no longer available. What is most frustrating is that I received no communication at all. That is crazy! A simple update, to let me know the unit had been rented or that my application was no longer being considered, would have been appreciated, and would have fixed this problem. I do not believe this level of communication is acceptable, especially when applicants are paying fees and making important housing decisions based on the information provided. I would give it zero stars if I could. read more

SC Properties managed the 4 Unit building I lived in for 3 years & I was impressed with how responsive they were in respects to apartment maintenance & repairs. Andrew, the property manager was helpful & easy to communicate with. When I moved out, he made the process seamless. Also their online portal is a breeze to navigate. Overall I really appreciated the time in which they managed the apartment! Eric read more

We have loved working with Andrew as we prepare to move into one of SC Properties' units in San Francisco. He has been incredibly responsive, accommodating, and helpful! They take diligent care of their properties and ensure tenants have a wonderful experience. Highly recommend! read more

My long-time clients decided to recently sell their Mill Valley home and return to San Francisco. They initially decided to rent in Noe Valley. However, due to changes in their life dynamics, the search for a new home resumed. Wanting to remain in Noe Valley, we couldn't find anything that quite fit the family requirements to justify another move so soon. During a search for cancelled listings, I found one previously listed by Andrew Guglielmi in Noe Valley. He was very accommodating and let me show the property to my clients on several occasions to confirm their true interest in the home. Once we knew for sure that we had found the right one, I discussed a possible offer and terms w/ Andrew before putting pen to paper. He said his client would be amenable to it and we moved forward. After some minor countering, we ratified on the property. Andrew's disclosures were thorough and worked w/ me to remediate SF required point of sale items, making the entire process a smooth one. In fact, his willingness to make this a smooth transaction for both sides allowed the buyers to close 15 days earlier than contractually intended. Andrew's experience shined throughout the process, and I would recommend and look forward to working with him again! read more

My experience was amazing , love the location, so convenient . If you are looking for a Apartment don't hesitate to call SF Properties you will have a unique service . Thank you again to you guys and specially to Andrew . read more

SC Properties has been managing the building I live in for about 3 years. The owner of the building bought it about 5-6 years ago. The "property manager" they retained did absolutely nothing to improve the building and was totally non responsive. When SC came on board, Bob Guglielmi introduced himself and said he looked forward to showing me how things would be better under him. Fast forward to now and I'd like to give him public recognition for keeping his word. Between him and Andrew Guglielmi, the building has seen improvements that I am sure haven't been done in decades. The building is standard SF old; probably around 1910 or so. Despite a very responsible owner previously, it had gone into disrepair and overall it was in bad shape. Bob has spearheaded major improvements including top to bottom painting inside and out, water damage repair, new carpet, gut renovation of units that became vacant to make them into modern and very nice apartments, and more. We have been in our unit for a very long time unfortunately and fortunately, so it was in very dire need of some improvements. The kitchen was straight out of 1940, no exaggeration. The decrepit counter was peeled off, the pipes under the "sink" leaked incessantly, the bathroom tub tile had mold and cracking and peeling that I tried to repair myself at times but proved too massively damaged and ancient to fix. I escalated the issues to Bob recently and he immediately agreed to make improvements. He came up and met with me and his best contractor, we devised a game plan and then while I went out of town for 2 weeks for the holidays, they actually, unbelievably to me still, managed to more or less completely re do the kitchen and the bathroom. Somehow, they removed all of the ancient "tiling" in the shower / tub, even installed a normal smaller bathroom window with a screen (never take for granted screens for those of you that have them which is just about everybody not living in one of these old buildings), new shower fixtures, and in the kitchen a custom made cabinet and sink. I forgot to mention, the flooring in the kitchen was so old that it couldn't even be mopped. It's one thing to do such major renovations and improvements to a unit; you'd expect this only when someone moves out. To accommodate us and do all that in 2 weeks just to make sure we are happy in today's world seems unheard of. This is how things USED to be, but now? I didn't think I'd ever see it, to be honest. Bob proved me wrong. A final note: as extremely busy professionals I do think tenants need to take repair requests with a grain of salt. Unless it's truly an emergency they may delay in getting back to you. Their online portal repair request system works well and helps them track the many repair requests that they may get hit with. There have been times of miscommunication about some requests I made which did get kinda frustrating but I have better success using the portal and knowing from my own experience how impossible it is trying to manage endless requests for help at work over e mail some kind of tracking system is a must. This is a loooooooong review, yes, but I have been so jazzed about my new kitchen and bath that I felt it deserved it. Thank you Bob and Andrew for the excellent service. read more

I became a tenant on 2016 for an apartment unit on 1289 22nd ave on Irving street. Never had problems requesting maintenance or contacting my building manager Andrew Guglielmi. Payments were easy to do through their portal and Andrew was available for any inquires. I lived in the unit for 7 years, including the pandemic. Andrew was very understating of the challenges posed by the pandemic and helped me out to adjust my rent payments during that time. If you are renting any units in the Bay Area I will highly recommend SC properties. They have good customer services and good propertie managers like Andrew! Only reason I left was becuase I decided to move closer to family, but if I'm back I'm surely hitting them up. read more

The absolute WORST! I've had to wait to write this review since 2018, as finally SC Properties is NOT managing the building, for fear of retaliation and negative repercussions. Namely Dan Mulready, who is listed as the property manager...HA! And for the management team covering for his unprofessional and incompetent behavior. The only person at SC Properties who was professional was the maintenance technician, Jason. On time, professional, friendly, competent and kind. Too bad he's not running things.... Our building received notice in Sep 2018 that SC Properties was taking over the property management from it being family managed by one of the siblings. And I've resided here since 2015. And loving where I lived plus the landlord. All of this was about to change... Right out of the gate, Dan showed his unprofessionalism to not introduce himself to the tenants and showed his rude aggressive hostile communication tactics from the very beginning. So much so that the longest residing tenant who moved in before me VACATED and left, after having so many terrible dealings with Dan. This was not good news for the tenants left... In Oct 2018, there was an incessant ringing of my doorbell as I was working from home and on a call. Putting my call on mute, I opened my front door and looked outside downstairs as there was a guy with glasses asking me to move my car from the driveway. I asked him who he was. Response: "Dan, the property manager." I stated that I was currently on a conference call and would be done in 30 minutes then I could move my car. Dan was not happy with my response and kept yammering at me to move my car, now, and that I was not legally permitted to park in the space. I was now irritated to be dealing with him and not working. I responded that I did not receive a 24 hour legal notice for this request, repeated my timeline, then went inside my apartment and shut the door. Five minutes later, I see a call coming through on my mobile with UNKNOWN NUMBER, mind you, I'm still on the call. I ignore it. This caller keeps ringing me. Nonstop. Finally, off the call and I pick up the unknown call. It's Dan. Are you kidding me? Well, needless to say it got worse before resolving itself as Dan left me hostile messages on my car and via email. You can see the lack of professionalism yourself as I'm sharing them with you his hostile and dismissive communication style. Where the total lack of competency comes into play is when I notified him of broken appliances or lights in the building. Each repair took an unreasonably long time to fix. Finally I started using the tenant/maintenance portal on the SC Properties website to document each request. It was only then that somebody else at the company started to respond to the requests in a timely manner. It took Dan and SC Properties THREE months to fix the inoperable door lobber buzzer and doorbell system. They are the absolute WORST. In October 2020, I made an attempt to try and get some relief from Dan and his unprofessional attitude, to escalate a complaint about his aggressive behavior with SC Properties leadership. To date...ZERO response. read more

Had a review and photographs of my clean and move-in conditions Daly City Property. No mention of any area restrictions of the area. Looking at other Yelp reviews, SC Properties offers properties in San Francisco. They seem to be deceptive and discriminatory in the clients they want to host. In other business with SC Properties, they are slow to address tenant issues and use there expensive vendors to use the funds of Landlords without any regard to costs to the owners. They do whatever is easiest to the read more

current tenant, experience is "ok" i removed the review i was asked to write upon moving in after my first inspection, of course everything was great then lol will update this after moving out. read more

I was fortunate enough to be a tenant of SC Properties during my stay in San Mateo. They offered me an opportunity to establish myself and have a roof over my head in the Bay Area at a very reasonable rate! the grounds were well maintained and there were never any issues with contacting management in the rare times that I needed to. If I found myself in the Bay Area again, I'd look for one of their units without hesitation! In particular, I had the privilege of Jamil Musa being my property manager while I was in San Mateo finishing my college degree. He was always incredibly responsive and his communication was on point! I'm grateful for the opportunity and SC Properties excellent management team. Thank you! read more

Great Experience with the SC Properties team! My go to person is Mr. Jamil Musa who is attentive and professional. Whenever I have run into any problem with my apartment, Jamil is always an email away and mind you he replies even during the weekend - for me that goes above and beyond and says so much about a person. He also listens for suggestions and ideas on how to handle repairs with the laundry machine or the trash. And it's not only Jamil who is a rock star in here, Jason the repair guy is also a great guy. He is courteous, respectful and knowledgeable in what he does. Shout out to Kevin Phillips who always encourages me to just reach out whenever I need something done in the apartment. SC Properties, thank you for having my family's back! read more

Very unprofessional business dealing with Andrew Guglielmi. We tried contacting Andrew multiple times regarding an apartment for rent in San Mateo that was posted on multiple websites but never heard back. I saw the apartment had the price reduced about a week later and tried to contact him again. I called SC Properties multiple times and the ladies answering the phones were very nice and transferred me to Andrews line and even told me he was in the office, but the phone was never answered. I left him 4 voicemails and sent an email over the span of 1.5 weeks as we are looking for an apartment ASAP and saw that the price was reduced assuming the property was not being rented out yet, but we never heard back. There was supposed to be an open house today and we checked to make sure that was still scheduled but noticed all of the listings for the apartment were removed, I called SC properties and the nice lady over the phone said that it's been rented out and removed since she doesn't see the property in her system. I kindly let her know that we attempted to contact him multiple times and never heard back, she said that we were not the only ones experiencing this and other people have also been calling. I understand if the property has been rented out, but I do think it is common courtesy to let a potential client know instead of ghosting them. read more

I had a great experience moving into a sc properties property! Jamil went above and beyond to make sure everything was fast, easy, and efficient! He was attentive and always got back to my messages super quick! When I moved in, I needed the oven to be fixed. After submitting a request online, Jamil personally made sure the maintenance man could come ASAP to address the issue! Highly reccomend! read more

Jamil is the best. He is super easy to communicate with and very efficient. This is our first time renting in states and with his help, everything went smoothly and effortlessly. He is a local, so he is very knowledgeable about the area. Anyone who is looking for housing in San Mateo, Jamil is the man! read more

I lived on Woodlake Condominiums for 2 years and my experience was nothing but great. Andrew Guglielmi was my point of contact for the 2 years. Andrew was always available when I contacted him and he even helped me with an urgent matter that required immediate attention. He went above and beyond and out of his way to help me with the situation when I was out of town. It's important to build a trusting relationship with your property manager, and Andrew was definitely the person I trusted with my apartment. I will miss living at Woodlake. read more

Andrew Guglielmi and his team are wonderful to work with -- professional, responsible, responsive, and very thoughtful. Highly recommended!

I was a tenant of SC property management for about two years, working with Andrew Gugliemelo. I really appreciated his care, thoroughness, and professionalism in dealing with every part of the process. I think I got a good deal on the house I rented, and that he is a trustworthy and straightforward guy to work with. I'd happily recommend the company, and Andrew. read more

From application to move out, Andrew and the entire SC Properties we're a pleasure to work with. They were always very responsive when something was damaged or broken, always coming out same day or next day. Even before I moved in, they offered to redo the bathroom at no additional cost to me before my move in date. Also did a great job of keeping the exterior of the building looking very good as well. The rental payment software they use makes it very easy to pay rent every month no problem. Would recommend to anyone looking to rent in the Bay Area! read more

We had a great experience working with SC Properties. We mostly and helpfully dealt with them through a portal (payments and requests) but there was always someone on the other end of a phone if you needed them (texts and calls). We worked with Andrew Guglielmi for the viewing and he was a pleasure to work with - he helped us sort out the contract quickly (a plus in a competitive rental market) and was great about getting people out to help with little fixes here and there. The quality of the units he works with seems to be quite high and the staff that came to help were great as well. You can tell SC Properties has some well-established relationships with various trade professionals. I would definitely work with them again and would definitely consider renting my home with them should the opportunity ever arise! They looked after both my and the landlord's interests. read more

Horrible. Slumlords by any measure. Refused to fix anything the entire (and thankfully) short time they managed the small building I live in. Luckily, our building was sold and the new owners are fixing stuff. If you're looking to rent an apartment, make sure this company isn't the management. They replied to my review on Google saying there was no such maintenance requests in their system, well, that's because they deleted them all about 2 months prior to selling the building. Had a front entry light and doorbell out for over a year. Entrance was pitch black at night. Luckily, I have records still read more

BAD UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE ALL AROUND . While looking for an apartment I had the misfortune of working with one of their Agents Andrew regarding an apartment in Millbrae on Richmond drive . After I looked at the unit I applied and was approved within an hour, I was sent an electronic lease , I called Andrew to discuss some of the contradictory addendums that were put into the lease. He sounded quite annoyed and hassled. I asked to come check out the unit 2 days later with my father to show him the unit. Upon a second look, the drawers in the bathroom were broken, the bathroom door hook was broken off and door had holes, the heater was not working, and the oven had a strange smell to it and it was missing an oven tray . The bedroom blinds were "new" but mechanism was not closing properly. I made those known to Andrew and his response was. " it's not a brand new unit , and I don't want to get into a situation where were picking on every little thing" And he could show us more newer units. Mind you these were small, easily fixable items, but he wasn't very welcoming or forthcoming that he was going to fix them prior to me moving in. He told me he would touch base with me later on in the day regarding the lease . A day later the lease was CANCELLED on his end. After I had not heard back for two days, I called his office left a voicemail. Did not hear back, left a voicemail and sent a text to his cell, no response, left a voicemail to his boss , BOB , who also did not reach back to me. A week and half later, the Unit is no longer available. BAD UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE ALL AROUND . HE MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE ASKING FOR TOO MUCH WHERE IN FACT you're JUST REQUESTING THE BARE MINIMUM. read more

I lived in a building managed by SC properties for about 2 years, and had a great experience in my time there! Andrew Guglielmi was my property manager and I couldn't say enough good things about him. The turn around time from applying to signing my lease was about 5 hours (maybe less) and Andrew was keeping me updated the entire time. Throughout my time I had a few maintenance requests and they were always handled timely and the team was easy to work with. Would highly recommend SC properties :) read more

Andrew G is top tier - extremely helpful with finding our property in NOPA. When we first moved in, he made sure to go over all the details of the house. When it came time for the move out process, he made it quick, easy, and very simple. Thanks! read more

Look, SC properties is the best in the business, hands down. I shopped around for weeks and couldn't find any organization HALF as knowledgeable as these folks. Chris Giotinis, Kevin Phillips and Andrew Gugglieimi all worked together to get my building fully rented and completely taken care I have no worries. Then they helped me sell one of my other buildings for double what I expected!! Unreal customer service, they sure as shoot have a client for life!! read more

Andrew was phenomenal to work with. Having people reply to a property inquiry feels automated, but Andrew personally called me to talk about what I was looking for and to schedule a tour of a property. He worked around my work schedule and was extremely communicative. He confirmed the night before and the day of the showing. He was on time, knowledgable, made us feel valued/heard, and was very friendly. The entire process of renting a new place was easier than words can express. Everything was communicated perfectly and in a timely manner and there was always timely and clear follow up during all steps of the process. He even came to the property with the owner when it was time to get the keys to introduce us to the owner. We had the keys to our new place within 4 days of seeing and applying to the property we now call home. Unheard of based on our previous experiences elsewhere. Best experience and we got an amazing deal on our new place. Would love to work with Andrew again in the future. He's the best and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for their next place to call home. read more

Andrew and Raquel have been excellent to work with! I loved 227 Elm and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to live in San Mateo.

I lived in an apartment for 4 years that was managed by SC Properties. Andrew was our property manager and he was a pleasure to work with. He always responded in a timely manner and was extremely approachable. We loved our apartment and received a very fair rent price. Overall it was a great 4 years and we had no issues! Sad to leave such a wonderful home. read more

1/2 hour to go see a property and then compete against 15 other couples within that time and then the person in charge of the property took a credit check deposit, which she said would be returned if we didn't get the apt. 1 month later, didn't get the apartment and repeatedly asked for my money back :( - they stole my moneyyyyy!!! It essentially felt like a scheme. read more

We bought our house from this company. They bought it at auction as a foreclosure, invested some money to give it a cosmetic make over and then put it on the market. We bought it even though there were many little things sloppily done. I don't think the management at this place checks on their contractors. Who puts in a tub spout without the lift to make the shower turn on? Who doesn't seem together crown molding and just leaves it? What about a shower door? Leaky sink connections, leaky dishwasher connections, etc... really sloppy work. Luckily this is all things we could fix. The biggest problem we had with this company was their rep Jeff Barden...he was SO SLOW to respond to our agent, it was quite frustrating. He did not earn ONE PENNY of the commission...my agent should have got his half. We offered them a great deal on our house and it just seemed that this guy was so arrogant, not responding, texting...etc...a little unprofessional with no sense of urgency. Oh well we love our house though, just wish the contractors would have actually done a complete job, thrown away the empty cans of paint and loose wires all over...not to mention the electrical box was a nightmare! read more

This goes out to the staff who helped respond to an urgent call with my building last week. A special thanks to the staff who were very proactive in getting in touch with me to identify issues, provide update of fixes and subsequently seeking my feedback on the repair. I was a little hesitant as when we switched building / property managers recently, but it is the efforts of staff like Teri and Jessica who help instill confidence in their service. read more

I lived in a building managed by SC properties for almost 2 years, and had a fantastic experience while I was there! Andrew Guglielmi was my property manager and he was always incredibly helpful at every turn. The handy man of the building was Jay, who was always ready to help and solved any issues that came up, like changing a lightbulb, etc. Overall I am sad to leave such a well ran apartment complex! If you are looking to move into a property managed by SC Properties, you will not be disappointed! read more

Rented from them for 3+ years and had nothing short of an amazing experience. Supper friendly and extremely quick responses if help was ever needed. Could not recommend these guys more! Only reason I moved out is to get my own place otherwise I'd still be there! read more

Update: an electrician was sent on Monday morning and the issue was fixed. Thanks. Well, I've lived in a property managed by Lindsey Baggetta since last August. The service was pretty good for the last year and they had sent in a plumber very soon when we complained about some particles in our water. But that's history now. We returned from Phoenix, Arizona yesterday night to find many of our plugs not working, none of the lights can be switched on (imagine going to the bathroom in the dark). We made an urgent service request yesterday night. Today, it's 4:40 pm and all that we have heard back from them is that to find our circuit breaker and change the fuse. We could not locate the circuit breaker and have repeatedly asked for help, nor do we have the technical expertise of fiddling with electrical circuits. They have not sent in an electrician despite complaining more than 10 times. Our fridge and microwave are not working, our groceries are spoiled. We can't cook. They just do not seem to care. Never rent from them, fellow Yelpers. read more

We lived in an SC Property apartment for 3+ years. The building was old and poorly maintained. Biggest issue was the mold, which they clearly know about but paint over in the hopes that you don't notice. Health hazard for sure. And then they take the 'damage' out of your security deposit... ? They also need to be more professional in their communications. Hand written notes on binder paper left on my windshield isn't the most effective way to communicate a message to me. Some good people that work in the office for sure, but they clearly don't care about tenants. Lucky it's the Bay Area and supply is so low, so they don't have to address any of these issues. I won't be renting from them again. read more

We had a great experience as tenants. Andrew was easy to work with. He delivered our keys personally and even called the garbage service to let us know when trash pick up was. Two thumbs up! read more

I have been renting from Sc properties for more than 5 years and it has been a very pleasant experience. I worked with Raquel and she was always helpful, very responsive and on top of various issues. She is very easy to work with, and able to easily adapt to various situations even with a busy workload. I really like her flexibility making things always easy. Their team doing maintenance/repair is also very efficient and saved my day numerous times. I highly recommend doing business with Raquel at Sc properties. read more

This place is so sketchy. First of all, they will never show you their apartments if you miss their Open House; and their open house is usually conducted early morning on weekdays. They refused to show me the apartment even though I got approved for it. Second, without me even seeing the place, they required $1600 deposit by cash or cashier's check and make it payable to some "G&C". I found the apartment on the SC Property website, and now I have to pay to some "other" company?! Are they subleasing these apartments or what? That sounds so shady. Third, they never mention if the deposit is refundable. My fear is that I will pay $1600 cash/cashiers check for the apartment I never even saw to the "mysterious company" I know nothing about and I am not even sure that they will return me my money if I don't get the apartment. I'll pass, thanks. read more
