The founder of SCI, Patricia McElroy, is an Oakland native. Patricia began her Property Management Service in 1989 at her company, then known as Sisters Property Management Services. Her property management service met the needs of over 150 residential and commercial properties throughout the Bay Area and Peninsula.
In 1998 Sisters Property Management Services expanded to include Sisters Commercial Property Development Services. Between 1998 and 2000, Sisters Commercial Property Development Services completed two phases of a 24,000 sq. ft. commercial structural renovation and tenant improvement project in downtown Oakland.
Sisters Property Development service became known as Sisters Construction Inc. (SCI) in 2000. In 2018 SCI partnered with Nubian Shakur, owner of Nubian Signature Homes.
Nubian, a Realtor®, began her career in construction in 2011. Her success in Real Estate came from flipping residential properties, and she has turned eye-sore properties into million-dollar masterpieces. Her interior design expertise and a keen eye for detail significantly increased the value of her flipped properties. Her expertise expands to interior design, project management, home loans, and market and investment analysis. She is a visionary. Her knowledge of property value helps her determine what improvements should be made to help your home sell.

We offer a wide variety of career options to women, ranging from skilled tradespeople to engineers to project managers to architects.

Our Mission
SCI is committed to giving back to our community.
It is really important for us as women in Construction to develop the social and leadership capacities of youth, young adults, and women so that they are prepared for employment in the industry
Our vision is for all youths growing up in the Greater Bay Area to feel valued, safe, and prepared to achieve their dreams of college, career, and leadership. To that end, we connect youths from underserved neighborhoods with access to the resources and opportunities they need to navigate gender, economic, and racial barriers, and realize their potential.
A key to addressing the shortage of construction workers and meeting that demand is to encourage women to learn about the trades and consider pursuing careers in construction, architecture, OSHA Certification, and engineering.
