Berglas & Garfield

Negative experience: If I could give this place a 0 stars I would no communication what’s so ever. They just like to collect money thankfully I canceled my application request last minute. There was also roaches in the bathroom disgusting

Fantastic experience: I’ve been living at Sherman Oaks Gardens apartments for over a decade, and I can honestly say it’s been a nice experience. The property is always clean, well-maintained, and feels safe and welcoming. The management team especially Terri Alvarado has been fantastic! She’s professional, kind, and always quick to respond whenever something needs attention. This place really feels like home. I’m grateful to Terri Alvarado and the entire team for creating such a great environment to live in. I Recommend Sherman Oaks Gardens apartments to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-managed place to call home!

Negative experience: Recently applied for a unit with this company and the team was incredibly disrespectful and difficult. They drew out the application process for weeks, demanding we show multiple documents proving the exact same information over and over (including things I've never had to share for an application before). They then blatantly disregarded and ignored multiple elements of the paperwork they had literally asked us for, forcing us to explain very basic/standard documents to them, essentially do their jobs for them. They were condescending and impossible to communicate with from start to finish. And if you work full time, good luck getting in to see a unit in the first place as their hours are 10am-4pm Mon-Fri and they refuse to accommodate or respond in a timely manner. STAY AWAY unless you're prepared to do a ton of work yourself to even get to the step of signing a lease.

Negative experience: DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY! We had been accepted at multiple apartments, but were denied here and we cannot get a proper reason why despite having sufficient income. I suspect they like application fees. The staff was unprofessional, unresponsive, and rude. I highly recommend looking elsewhere -- I've never had an experience with a management company like this.

Fantastic experience: I really like living here. Great managers and a great neighbors. Happy Holidays!

Fantastic experience: Excellent problems solving, and quick responses to inquiries.

Positive experience: When my husband and I first moved here everything was great now we have people letting their dogs poop in the court way, also throwing their dog poop bags in the trash can by the mailbox, some of them when they go walk their dog in the front of the building they do not pick up their dog poop, trash bags are being left out in front of the apartment instead of taking them to the trash dump causing all kinds of flies and nets, some people is going so far that they don't even put their trash inside the trash can they leave it outside the trash can, the laundry room do not have hot water so I cannot wash my white clothes there and I have to go to the laundromat in order to wash my clothes I would prefer to wash them here on site but the hot water is always turned off and I do not want my clothes dingy, Miss Maria tries her best to keep things under control but she cannot be around 24 hours a day and watch people but when she sees tenants doing things out of order she does let them know what they're doing is wrong and rectify the problem with them, other than that if we have issues in our apartment like things that needs to be fixed it's done in a timely manner we seem to get along with our neighbors as neighbors should. Thank you. Ronnie &Hilda Birchett

Negative experience: I really wanted to like and enjoy this place. The number of simple issues that the buildings have, as well as the water being shut off literally once a week, is unacceptable.

Fantastic experience: Always content with prompt and kind services.

Fantastic experience: Really awesome management at this property. Always on top!

Fantastic experience: Rare to have such an attentive and responsive property management team with the property manager living on site/close to the building all at a reasonably priced rent - in LA of all places! Berglas Garfield really puts tenants first and we have the best property manager with Haila Alkhaimas! Haila responds at all hours of the day even if it’s non-urgent and cannot appreciate her enough for all her efforts to make the community homey. Thanks, BG and Haila in particular!

Fantastic experience: Management has always been responsive and professional. Any needed repairs were done promptly and to satisfaction. As far as management companies, one of the better ones.

Positive experience: do we have a green compost bin at 10800 Rose? we keep getting notices that we need to compost, but there's on bin

Fantastic experience: I accidentally went to the car without my house key ring! I felt stupid. I had to call my Manager Nate. I believe it was even his day off. By the time we hung up, Nate was in front of me!!! Outstanding Job, and thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Great place to live. Manager Irena is the Best!

Positive experience: We rented 2B Room apartment but they provided only 1 parking. Which is so disappointing.. The neighborhood is very good.. management is quite good.

Fantastic experience: All good.

Negative experience: Parking area and building needs to be power wash the parking area is very dirty. The stairs and walkways are dirty. Cars are constantly braking into because there's no cameras in the building. Not a safe area to live in.

Fantastic experience: Everything is great! All of the people who work here are the best and always pleasant to work with. I have some nice neighbors living near me and the others I meet are always nice to talk with. In the office Joyce is really nice to talk to and is willing to take time to listen if I have any questions or a problem.

Fantastic experience: The problem was taken care of promtly

Fantastic experience: I love the looks of the property and how well maintained is kept.

Positive experience: Overall, I really love living here. The apartment is renovated beautifully with great attention to detail. The manager and her husband are extremely kind and respond quickly to issues. One thing I am not happy about is the lack of security cameras on the property. In the year that I have lived here, my car and others - all parked in the gated garage - have been broken into and the neighbor who parks right next to me has had his car stolen from the premises. There are zero cameras in any of the common areas including the garage. This is something ownership clearly needs to change.

Fantastic experience: Maintenance issue was handled rapidly and fixed the first time. That is all it takes for a good outcome. The apartment manager was on it.

Fantastic experience: the new property manager in the building is A+++ very nice and attentive compared to the prior one. big improvement

Fantastic experience: I've lived in their building for nearly 9 years, & it wasn't until Covid hit did I see the owners shine with empathy & compassion facing the plight of their tenants. Danny's personable approach, & communication with sharing information on the rental programs was impeccable, timely, met with sincerity....not the usual response expected from one of LA's prominent residential real estate companies. The building itself has gone through a few on site managers in the past several years, & the current one, is more focused on monitoring the tenants every move with security cameras placed around the building. It lends itself to an invasion of privacy, especially since she is anti-social, authoritative, & accusatory of the tenants for everything that may need repair. Her focus appears to be one of constant surveillance from her apt. Using a barrage of texts & letters threatening fines if tenants don't adhere to the rules. The endless reprimands dosen't make it a welcoming home.

Fantastic experience: This is a place i call 'home', great on-site manager, added security camaras in the past year and increased awareness on safety, health and environmental concerns.

Fantastic experience: I've been living here at Corbin Terrace for the last eight years. The complex is always very well kept. Clean and well groomed... Elena the on site manager is the best! She goes the extra mile to accommodate our needs. The management has put in pretty good measures to help our complex security. Nice place to live!

Fantastic experience: Maintenance issues always addressed in a timely manner with professional vendors, very clean property with weekly cleaning, close knit community of neighbors, property always maintained with upgrades. Gym clean with variety of equipment. Property Manager Robert is wonderful. Very personable, caring and quickly addresses safetyissues. Great location centrally located in LA and near a grocery store and CVS. Nice neighborhood. Always street parking available for guests. Working with corporate during COVID was good. They communicated well regarding concerns. Besides wishing the property had an elevator it's a great place to live.

Fantastic experience: I have had nothing but a great experience living here! Management, especially down to those working for Berglas & Garfield have been kind and addressed all needs. Thank you!
