SGCH

Always appreciate SGCH and its staff if good communication with good respond to solve any problem from past to now.SGCH Head office staff should solve any of your tenant's problem. We live in residential buildings area. That group of SGCH tenants in Riverwood especially that person has the radio equipment is still so selfish, every morning always before 8am they come to play their favourite music to do exercises near the residential buildings, play their favourite music is too loud to affect the neighbours' rest. If some residents are emergency workers such as fire fighters live in the residential buildings, sometimes have night shift work, and need have good rest in the day time. Talked to that person who should turn the radio volume from high to low. If the noise is still too loud to affect neighbours, please ask them to stop and don't disturb neighbours. Otherwise, fines apply to that person who has the radio equipment but not turn the volume lower or SGCH provides the locked gates garden that just between two residential buildings which SGCH tenants live there and that person's group of people can play their favourite music with lower volume always and do exercises there. Please require that group of SGCH tenants especially that person who has the radio equipment in Riverwood don't be selfish to move to large public park to play music to do exercises.

The worse company ever !! My mums been with them for very long time but soon will be leaving them. They don't answer yours calla when you need them, don't do any job repairs, been asking for a rent book for ever 8 months and they keep saying there sending it. They will call us every once in awhile asking for a payment which my mum had already payed for. They don't do there job properly at all. They never keep there promises and do a disgusting job.

I would just like to comment on The Day at the Movies. I would like to thank SGCH for putting on a wonderful day, which I enjoyed very much. You went to a great deal of trouble. The food was plentiful and very nice, and so much choice. Also the flow of drinks where endless, I enjoyed three glasses of Champagne with my lunch. I can't wait for the next 30 years to pass.Thank you once again.Malcolm Woodhouse

Good people with an excellent service and values.

Been renting with this company for about 3 years and a half. And I will never recommend them to no one. They will badger you when you are at you’re lowest point in life. No compassion and no help by this company even if you are an excellent tenant you will be treated like Shit. You will be left homeless the people that work here won’t help you at all. Most tenants they except to live in these affordable properties are a disgrace, filthy and will damage your property. Think twice before getting your self in to a mess with this company. Unfortunately I had to learn the hard way. They will also take you to the tribunal and they won’t give u the opportunity to make any arrangements what so ever. Extremely poor service and a disgrace. Not to mention they will also leave you stranded with no assistance what so ever.

This organisation is corrupt, negligent and incompetent.We were promised nothing would change compared to Govt Management, Department Of Housing.We were lied to. We have had repeated rent increase. We have had 25 - 40% of our income deducted for rent (DOH had a standard of 25% across the board until a certain income threshold, whereby fair market rent would be charged)Further they are simply neglectful.I spent a week and a half without a shower, due to refusal to make repairs. When I expressed my REPEATED frustration, they applied for a hearing to remove me from the property, which was disallowed. They then proceeded to lie and attempt to antagonise me, by charging me $80 per week, above the amount agreed upon....with witnesses.I am nto the only tenant suffering at my property due to their neglect.I'd really appreciate any other tenants suffering to contact me.I am preparing a legal brief, to take to lawyers, media and Department of Housing to ask SCGH to be defunded.Their staff turn over at a massively rapid rate. There is a reason for this.They have overcharged me rent on 2 occasions to the tune of approx $2000. Which they refunded after lengthy and arduous protest.I will not speak to a staff member at SGCH without an advocate present.I have found they lie, cheat and neglect, with the best of them.Please choose ANY other provider of housing than this organisation. Just run. They are disgusting.It isn't their individual staff. I am certain they ACTUALLY believe they are helping....but they just lack the policy, procedures, training and capacity, to carry out their support.They house mostly less abled people, and their negligence, corruption and deliberate antagonism is not what I expected in Australia. Possibly America....but not Australia.I am so sad. I genuinely feel blessed to live in this country. I have food. I have shelter. In many other countries around the world, with my disabilities, I'd be living on the street.However in my entitlement, I don't believe we deserve to be abused by a Government funded, non-for-profit.I'm preparing a petition to ask that theybe defunded by the NSW government.Please contact me at captainmanic{at}hotmail{dot}com, to demand your basic human rights be met. Please have evidence of SGCH negligent and corrupt behaviour.We Will Not Be Abused.#HumanRights

Fantastic staff and friendly

They have absolutely zero compassion. I was unable to make it to an inspection due to serious mechanical problems and without any communication they suspended my application I was provided 12 hours notice and I explained I have no finances but Aneta simply didn't care one little bit.

Have been in 2 different places through such. The first place was pretty bad due to a lot of people on drugs and lots of visits from the police. My new place, which I've been in for 1 yr, is a great place to live in. Lovely neighbours, quiet, and no getting kept up at night by people screaming and fighting all the time.
