In March 2015, I purchased a 5 bedroom 3.5 bath home from Pittsburgh Property Guy in the city's…read moreeast end. The 90 year old home was completely stripped down to the studs and renovated by Pittsburgh Property Guy. After living in the house for nearly a year, I can attest to the very high level of quality and craftsmanship that he put into this home. The home inspector even commented to me prior to purchasing that he's seen a lot of renovated homes, and this one was clearly done right. He used high end finishes like Brazilian Cherry floors, granite kitchen counters, and marble in the master bathroom. He also took the time to have the brick cleaned on the outside of the house, exposed and restored original woodwork, vaulted the 3rd floor to create even more livable space. Everywhere you look, you can see that time and thought was put into the final product. It's been so nice having friends and family comment on the beauty and quality of the renovation too! Aside from the quality craftsmanship, Pittsburgh Property Guy himself provided top notch customer service to me when I had questions or minor issues that I encountered. He worked with me directly via phone and email, and was always very quick to respond. It was clear that my happiness as his customer was important to him, and that's not something that should be overlooked! If you're thinking about buying one of his properties, you're in safe hands.

My wife and I owned rental property in Pittsburgh, PA that had been vacant for several years. We…read morelive in another state and owning this property became a huge financial burden and we no longer wanted it. The property needed lots of repair work and the cost of maintaining it was piling up. I reached out to a few investors in the area regarding selling the property and was extremely grateful that I connected with Nick from the Pittsburgh Property Guy Team. When I spoke to Nick, I immediately felt comfortable. He was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly and offered solutions. Thanks to him, the entire process was smooth, quick and easy. He kept me updated every step of the way from the time they made an offer to close. It was a pleasure doing business with the Pittsburgh Property Guy Team and we highly recommend their services to anyone.

We have an old 1800's home so he dug through tons of info to figure it out and we are VERY pleased with his work. The ONLY complaint I had was the fact I had to keep close tabs because his communication isn't the best. He texted saying yes he'd do it but Then it fell silent with no communication. So I reached out. He texted and responded every time I reached out but it was a vague response so I had to pin him down as to what the date was that he was coming. Very very nice guy and very good work, I think he's just swamped. I would definitely use him again.

I am moving from out of state, drove 3 HOURS, and stood outside in the FREEZING RAIN waiting for the agent to come show the property. I was waiting with 3 other people/couples.

That is a LIE.

I needed to hire a land surveyor, so I could obtain a plot plan for permits for a new deck and…read morefence. I felt unsure of which companies to contact, so I asked my township for their recommendations. My township emailed me a list of survey companies that other residents have used, and Allegheny Land Surveying was one of those companies. From that list and other recommendations, I contacted several survey companies to determine their availability and prices. Only two companies were available. Compared to the other company, Allegheny Land Surveying had slightly earlier availability and a slightly lower price, so I hired them. I coordinated this job through their business manager Cindy, and she was always friendly and prompt in her communication. I paid a 50% deposit at the time of the appointment booking, and then I paid the remaining 50% when they completed the fieldwork for the survey. Please note that they accept only checks and money orders, NOT credit cards or electronic payments. My Certified Boundary Survey included the following: county research, field work, staking with iron rebar and wire flags, PA One Call, and a certified plot plan. I had worried that the snowy winter weather would delay my survey, but Allegheny Land Surveying stayed on schedule, and they started my survey exactly on time. Two employees arrived at my house at 9:20 AM, and they finished at 10:45 AM. One employee, Zack, politely introduced himself to me at the beginning of the appointment, and he thoroughly explained the stakes and boundaries at the end of the appointment and wished me a great day. One business day later, Allegheny Land Surveying emailed me a PDF of my plot plan, which I will now use to obtain permits for my new deck and fence. They are also mailing me hard copies of the plot plan via snail-mail. Overall, I feel very thankful for Allegheny Land Surveying's availability, pricing, courteous personalities, and high-quality survey. Tip: If you anticipate hiring a land surveyor for a spring or summer project, then I highly recommend that you hire the surveyor in the winter, because the surveyors can get very busy starting in March.

Professional, on time, and very helpful. Highly recommend if you need a property survey.read more

RPM Pittsburgh has been managing my house for 6 months and I am quite happy with their services…read more I'd recommend them to a friend. Pros: - They take care of all repairs and let me know about any unexpected costs as they happen. - They scheduled extra work (termites, fall maintenance) when I asked for it, took care of everything. - I get a monthly statement about income. When the statements look confusing I email RPM and they always explain the charges/income. - Direct deposit to my bank account. Cons: - It took them a few months to replace the garage door on my house, which didn't affect me much but might have made the tenants a bit unhappy. - Sometimes it can take a few days for my property manager to get back to me via email.

DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY. RED FLAGS IMMEDIATELY UPON MOVE IN CONTINUE TO WORSEN. I cannot…read morerecommend Real Property Management (RPM) based on my move-in experience. It's been 24 hours and a total nightmare move-in! My new place is absolutely inhabitable upon move in-and there is zero concern from Claudette, my property manager, who has been dodging my urgent correspondences. Before my lease began, I repeatedly asked for early access to the property and several updates about the garage. Claudette, assured me that early access wasn't possible because the team was still "working hard" to deep clean the home and that it would be completely move-in ready on July 1. I relied on those assurances when planning my move. When I arrived with a vehicle full of my belongings, the home was nowhere near move-in ready. The cigarette odor throughout the house was so overwhelming that it triggered a migraine after only a couple of hours inside. The walls were drenched in sticky nicotine sap that my body absorbed just by being in the room. The home still needed extensive cleaning, the garage was not even accessible, and the kitchen was in an alarming condition. The cleaning company's own report later documented heavy dirt, grease, biological contamination, and the removal of rodent feces from the kitchen cabinets and drawers before they could even be disinfected. That should never be the condition in which a home is turned over to a new tenant. Instead of unpacking, I spent my move-in day begging desperately for human communication with RPM, documenting the property's condition, communicating with cleaners through a language barrier, trying to determine where I would stay, and being sent maintenance requests asking me to coordinate repairs that should have been completed before I received the keys. The biggest disappointment, however, was Claudette's communication. Despite multiple emails, photos, videos, and requests for updates, I was largely ignored. I repeatedly asked for a phone call but was instead directed back to the maintenance portal. At no point did she ask whether I had somewhere to stay after it became obvious I couldn't move into the home, nor did she provide a meaningful timeline or clear plan for resolving the situation. I chose RPM because I believed I was renting from a trusted, professional property management company. Instead, I was left without a move-in-ready home on my lease start date, wondering where I was going to stay, while trying to manage problems that should have been resolved long before I was handed the keys. I cannot WAIT for the next 364 days to be over!!! DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY. This experience fell far below the standard I expected from RPM, and I sincerely hope management reviews both the condition of this property and the way this situation was handled. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend renting through this company. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!

MAKE DEB YOUR REALTOR. She's a tireless advocate for you!…read more I was referred to Deb by friends in 2016 to buy my first house in Pittsburgh. Deb was on board with my priorities, and to boot, Deb would help mind my toddler while I looked at houses. Unfortunately, I got divorced in 2018, and Deb helped me efficiently sell that first house. I just bought my second house with Deb. As the first time, she went above and beyond to make sure I got the house I needed AND wanted. Deb tailors real estate experiences using her experience, knowledge, and network to get the optimum outcome for her clients. So I'm serious, MAKE DEB YOUR REALTOR. She's the best.
