I wouldn't use this company. I dealt with Mary and Slavka. And while they are personally very friendly people, it's been over 18 months since I moved out and they still haven't gotten my security deposit back to me despite multiple calls. And good luck getting them to pay the legally required yearly interest on your security deposit too. Small claims court is your friend when dealing with ERI.

People working there are very friendly and responsive. For the year that I was a tenant, the company has impressed me with their swift response to our inquiries and their efficiency in dealing with home repairs and other household matters. As a student living in Berkeley for three years at three different places, ERI company is the only one that I would truly recommend to anyone trying to find a home there.

I can't imagine having a better property manager. From the moment they showed us the house, until this day, having lived here one year, they've been kind, responsive, organized and helpful beyond expectation. We agreed on a reasonable price and I was able to get keys on the 31st. They provide gardening once a month. It's a beautiful but older house and so random little things need repairs. These always get done. Even during the pandemic, they've sent someone to fix the porch railing, the door and the sink (and even the plumber, who's been working with landlords to fix houses

Pretty responsive for a property management company with so many places to run. Not exactly the friendliest people on the planet (with the exception of Slavka, who knows what she's doing and helpful), but they do a decent job. Easy to communicate with. Maintenance is often overloaded and small jobs often get scheduled way far out to the point where it's easier just to fix the problem yourself.

I had the pleasure of meeting Terrence while searching for a new home. I saw a house I absolutely feel in love with that was posted two hour prior. I called Terrence and he was able to find time to show me the space that day, as it was the only day off I had that week, and even though he had a packaged schedule. He was friendly, courteous and when we told him he wanted the space, he was able to work with us to get the place secured within 48 hours!! I 100% would recommend working with him. Although I can't imagine moving soon, because he helped us secure our dream- I would got to Terrance

I am a renter in a house managed by ERI. Slavka and Mary are always helpful and courteous, and all of our maintenance needs and questions about the house are taken care of quickly and efficiently. Honestly not sure what the 1-star reviews are about below, but as a tenant, they are absolutely 100% fine, no problems.

I really don't know what's up with everyone here. I've been renting my apartment from ERI for the last 4 years, and they've been nothing but nice and professional. Renting my apartment has been a ridiculously seamless experience, and I've never felt a sense of dread going to anyone at ERI at all because I know they're nice people.
A few stories:
1) There's been several occasions I've been, like, a day late on my payments because of how much I travel around. Everyone that I've spoken to at ERI - Sasha, Mary, Slavka, etc. - has been super nice to me

I called ERI to inquire about one of their properties. Someone named Mary answered the phone. She was pleasant and explained the property was no longer available. She mentioned that another unit in the same duplex might become available and wanted to transfer me to the person in charge of the listing. Ok, no problem. But then there was some odd commotion in the background as she asked around the office about the listing before she transferred the call. Then a guy named Terri picked up the phone and was extremely unpleasant. He did not seem at all interested in answering questions or providing more

A friend, an out of state investor, used their management services. Over approximately 5 years of her Hills income property being "managed" by ERI, she experienced:
-significant gaps in tenancy
-2 different tenants stopped paying their rent
-no compensation/withholding of down payment for tenant caused damage, such as gouges in wood flooring, replacement of wood plantation shutters with cheap plastic ones, tenant painting interior (prohibited by rental agreement)
-more serious damage to the property that was made worse by lack of management oversight and adequate maintenance, such

I find Sasha to be extremely helpful and professional. Her open houses are welcoming and informative. She answered all my questions and helped me make an informative decision on my rental. I as well as Jill am surprised at the negative reviews and believe it's due to people not getting what they want most likely due to their own negligence.

It is glaringly obvious that at least a few of the 5-star ratings on this site, if not all of them, were solicited or created by ERI Property Management. The business of selling good Yelp reviews is, after all, a business that incompetent and unprofessional companies rely upon to boost their own SEO and internet legitimacy, as well as to cover their tracks if they are involved in sketchy activity.
Someone posted here that "complainers are usually folks who did not get their offers accepted." I am a complainer and this does not apply to me, because I never even had the chance to make

Worst experience I've ever had with a Property Management company. It is nearly impossible to reach anyone but the secretary working in the office and Mary, who is extremely rude and unhelpful. I sent multiple unrequited emails inquiring about simple steps in leasing and contact information. There was absolutely no dialogue for about two weeks while I continued to reach out to them. I highly discourage anyone thinking about renting with this company.

This property management company IS absolutely terrible, unprofessional, and a scam!!!!
I also don't know who could have possibly given 5 stars either. Must be someone who works for the property management company and wants to mislead. DONT BE FOOLED, they are not 5 stars.
My experience with them was super sketchy. Most everything negative that other reviewers already mentioned also happened to me.
They don't return calls or emails for a long time, up to a week. The woman in the office is really rude and doesn't know whats going on. They ask you for a "hold deposit"

I have to agree with the last review. And I'm laughing (sort of -- more wincing), because we must have gone to the same open house. The house itself was quite nice, but yes, the young woman representing the rental agency had absolutely no idea what she was doing. She couldn't even answer the simplest questions. And after several attempts at contacting the rental agent herself, we've gotten no response whatsoever. Stay far, far way from these people.

From a prospective tenant's standpoint, ERI's business etiquette was absolutely atrocious.
We fought an hour's worth of traffic to make it to one of their open houses in Berkeley, only to find that it was hosted by a young woman who knew absolutely nothing about the property.
While the house itself was very nice, the agency requested highly sensitive personal details (bank account numbers included) in its rental application, as well as money up front, and in return provided absolutely no details on lease terms, availability, utilities, nature of credit checks (hard or soft),
