Rise at Berkeley

"The maintenance experience was very very very bad…no one came for repair AC more than 20 days…I have never encountered such cases in my previous experience of living in different good apartment in US. This has greatly affected the life quality!!!"

"I am a Cal alum, so I know how hard finding housing in Berkeley can be. When my brother attended Cal as well, I ended up helping him look for housing, and the folks at SG made it super simple and easy to find a place."

"Had a great experience finding a place for my kid for school. Leasing agent was super nice and even met us on a weekend on short notice. Amenities are great and location very close to campus. Highly recommend!"

"Looking for housing for my son made me incredibly anxious. Fortunately, we found Rise at Berkeley. We found exactly what he needed, so close to campus and all the things he will need while at school. All of my many questions were answered in a timely and professional manner. Thanks to the friendly staff for all their help."

"The Rise will be a beautiful property when completed, I think 8/1 is optimistic... also you'll can to navigate the disfunction and lack of response/communication from their leasing department. My son and I traveled to Berkeley recently, and The Rise was on the top of our list to visit. I had emailed and called Josh, in advance and although I did not get a response, my son was ultimately able to communicate with him, or another person, and set up an appointment to tour the property with him. After a 6 hour drive, we quickly checked into our hotel and then dashed to make the appointment. Josh was a no-show. No call, nothing. My son was able to get to someone at the leasing office, and we were eventually able to get in, but as a Real Estate professional, I was appalled. Regardless, we were still interested, and I attempted multiple times to get additional information, questions answered etc., even reached out again to Josh. No response. We have now signed a lease with a competing property, but feel I should caution those looking to settle their accommodations for the upcoming school year, to hedge your bets if you're considering The Rise. A property is only as good as it's management."
