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.

Very disappointed with this community management association. They completely fail at doing basic…read moreparts of their job. After snowfall, the roads and common areas were left fully covered in snow and ice, with no one sent to clean it. It was unsafe, especially for families with kids. What's frustrating is that they have no problem increasing fees every year, but when it comes to actually maintaining the community, they disappear. Snow removal and safety are basic responsibilities, not extras. Residents are paying more and getting less. Poor management, lack of accountability, and no concern for resident safety. I would not recommend this association to anyone.

My ex husband owns the townhouse at 102 Pine Valley Drive in Imperial, PA. Once I discovered that…read moreour three adult children had been forbidden from going into the basement or the access the fuse box, I moved my ENTIRE world back in to start helping with bills. When I attempted to notify the police and his father of the code ordinance violations (the building itself as a tenancy when he is rarely conscious there -- as a foul tobacco-spitting night janitor at RMU who needs to sleep ten hours a day), I somehow got committed to a mental hospital to an involuntary psyche commitment, and he and his best buddies Scott and Katie Zanella had a good laugh about it -- since Scott works for Howard Hanna, sold Mike this house, handles all the software so my email never goes to the right people, and even invited him specifically to their daughter's graduation party last sunmer. As for me, I missed my daughter's graduation ceremony as the police hauled me away when I showed them the house. Without an actionable step to prove I was "a danger" to my ex husband, the 302 was not even legal. But then again, who cares about that in North Fayette when child predator Anthony Saveikis's local magistrate sign still hangs (county ordinance violation), so no one can quite tell just who the local judge was who signed that last order.

The biggest plus is the availability of management (after hours when needed) and the flexibility to appease the tenants. I also had a good relationship with a service person I wanted to continue to do business with and they've allowed that to continue and have supplied other service professionals as well. They also do quarterly inspections to the landlord is always in the loop about the condition of the property to help avoid being blindsided when someone either moves out or when the lease is renewed.

I would give this company less than one star if I could…read more Our experience renting from them was extremely frustrating. When we moved in, the house was already dirty and had multiple damages that we documented and reported during the move-in process. Despite this, when we moved out they kept our security deposit and claimed we were responsible for those same pre-existing damages. Their reasoning was that because we did not specifically request that the issues be repaired, we became liable for them. This makes the entire move-in inspection process pointless, even though it is required in their own contract to document existing problems. Maintenance was also a major issue. Our refrigerator was not working properly from the beginning, and we were told appliances were "not their responsibility." When it finally stopped working completely, they refused to fix it promptly and we had to live out of coolers for almost two weeks. Communication was another ongoing problem. Emails and messages often went unanswered, and it was extremely difficult to get clear responses about repairs or concerns. Overall, this company was very slow to address maintenance issues, poor at communication, and ultimately kept our deposit for damages that were present before we moved in. I would strongly caution anyone considering renting from them to document everything very carefully and think twice before signing a lease.

So we needed to make sure our offer was strong and stood out from the rest of them (the house ended up having multiple offers within 2 days of being up on zillow).

Over the course of about a year she answered my many questions via text and email and call, usually within minutes. She didn't miss a single step of the process, and in fact was usually early with all of the minutiae involved. I felt that I was in very good hands. I just closed on my dream home (!), but there was a house before this that fell through after inspection. Due to her extensive knowledge of contracting, Dawn was able to give realistic estimates of the repairs needed, and, most importantly, she helped me make the decision to walk away from a house I had lots of hope for but would have ultimately ended up being a miserable money pit. I'm so grateful for that perspective, and also for the fact that I generally never felt any pressure to make a decision before I was ready, buy a house outside of my means, etc. etc. I'm so lucky to have worked with Dawn and would recommend her to anyone!!

I lived under this property management company for four years, and it was the most frustrating…read moreexperiences I've ever had as a tenant. they were difficult to communicate with, unprofessional, disorganized, and showed scummy unethical practices. Communication overall was minimal to nonexistent. Calls would always go unanswered. Emails were typically short, rude, and generally unhelpful. Maintenance was another major problem. The house was poorly maintained and cheaply patched which lead to multiple major issues including hot water tank replacement, roof leaking, water damage, etc... my maintenance requests were often ignored or forgotten. including one that caused my water bill to spike over $700. Then when contacted about it, they seemed to have no record of the maintenance request or the worker that came to check out the issue to never return to fix it. It felt completely disorganized and unsafe for them to have no idea who had been to the house, when they came, or what work (if any) had been done. and when the issue was finally resolved, it took another three months for them to reimburse it. There were also instances that felt completely unprofessional & unethical. Especially when money was involved. I had a minor automatic payment issue, something I wasn't even aware of. Instead of contacting me about it, I came home to a court summons taped to my door. No warning, no communication, nothing. When I finally reached someone about it, the issue was fixed in minutes. Their explanation: "Sometimes if there's a money issue, they just send it to the lawyers." To me, that was unnecessarily aggressive and incredibly scummy. Overall, this company showed a pattern of poor communication, disorganization, unreliability, and unprofessional behavior. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for property management.

I recently accepted a new job in the region, so I relocated across the country and was actively…read morelooking for a great place to rent. I came across a beautiful 3 bedroom home for rent and it's just me and my dog. The ad stated dog allowed so I thought this was great! So I sent a message with all the questions I had. This morning I received a call from a woman stating she got my message, and we began to discuss the home. She asked about my dog and I told her he is a 4.5 year old Pit/black Lab mix. She state it was state law that they could not accept that breed. I told her it not a state law, maybe your agency doesn't accept them but it's not state law nor did you put that in your add. She became very rude and not happy that I later asked for what specific law states that I can not rent with my dog. I stated that I've viewed and applied to several location and brought my dog along and this places didn't mine specifically 201 Stanwix..... she then called me a liar..... She became very nasty and hung up on me. This is not how you conduct yourself when you are a business that deals with people. I have never dealt with such nasty rude and disrespectful people. If she would have just said it's their company policy then fine. That's reasonable whether I agree or not that's an reasonable and professional response but telling me it's the law, which I'm well aware it's not is just stupid. I was looking for an entire house with yard for my dog instead of a luxury building but I guess I'll stick to places that treat people with respect.

I was the first one of my friend group to find a property that is owned by this company. The agent…read morewe were presented with is Leah and my friend and I toured the first side of 6 bedrooms. Leah was really helpful and kind which is rare especially when you learn about how bad other property managers are in the same area as this property. Leah was really patient with us as we tried really hard to find other girls to join our house but it always fell through with some of these girls. Leah recommended the 4 bedroom side to us and even went out of her way to show that side of the house to 2 of the girls since I was really busy with a final for a class. Leah has been nothing but kind and respectful. She wasn't up our butts about paying for the deposit and she was really understanding when we had an issue with finding people. I'm glad this company took over for the property that we found instead of the prior one due to how it feels so frat like and how the property management is changing it. I highly recommend this company if you're looking for a place and heard bad things about other property management.

BEWARE OF DESANTIS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY…read more As a loyal customer since DeSantis Property Management took over from F. David Sylvester many years ago, I have watched the quality-of-service decline substantially. Here are just a few examples of my experience: I was charged more than $1,200 for snow removal on three separate occasions when the work was never performed nor needed. It took numerous phone calls and a significant amount of time before the company finally acknowledged the error. DeSantis charged a $100 monthly pet fee. However, when I terminated their services, they retained the accumulated pet fee funds, even though those funds were intended to cover pet-related damages to the owner's property. The company appears to rely on a single contractor rather than obtaining competitive bids. In my experience, the pricing was substantially higher than expected and the quality of work was questionable. For example, I was charged twice to clean the same gutter within six days, with what I considered to be an inadequate explanation as to why. My assigned property manager frequently failed to respond to phone calls and emails in a timely manner, if at all. When I raised these concerns with the owner on several occasions, the lack of responsiveness was largely dismissed as normal because employees were often "in the field." If you decide to sell your property, DeSantis requires the use of its exclusive listing service. Unfortunately, the listing broker assigned to my property was often unresponsive to phone calls and emails and failed to provide timely updates. Out of frustration, I ultimately removed the property from the market, only to be charged a $500 fee just for asking for updates and other related questions. When questioned the owner stated we had to do a lot of work on this. After terminating my contract, tenants informed me that DeSantis was often unresponsive to repair requests. When work was eventually performed by the company's designated contractor, the property was reportedly left in poor condition, requiring the tenants to clean up the mess themselves. It also seems there are so many incompetents working there and you can never get a straight answer from anyone. In Conclusion: As a customer of DeSantis Property Management since its earliest days, I can no longer recommend the company. Based on my experience, the level of service, responsiveness, and overall value provided has fallen well below what I believe property owners should expect from a professional management company. After so many years as a customer you would expect a much higher level of service.

I waited to publicize this review, but I can't wait any longer…read more I have been in one of their properties for the last 6 weeks now and I am disappointed in the team. When we moved in, the unit was left unlocked and anyone off the street could enter the home. That was the first red flag. As we moved our stuff into the home, the AC was completely unusable and the temperature inside exceeded 85°. Now they did address this and fix this quickly, but we still moved into a home that was not ready. For the first 2 weeks living here, we had to deal with leftover trash and debris that was never cleaned up entirely, I had to fight the maintenance team to send someone out to collect full trash can, full bags of trash, and assorted contractor material. There is still trash and debris on the property that was never picked up, even after someone came out. After our gas was set up, we discovered that the washing machine and dryer were both broken and unable to be used. It took weeks for a new unit to be delivered and there was little to no communication from the property management team. Within that time, the basement flooded and we had to move our stuff we had stored down there. This issue was addressed within a 2 day period. Now we are dealing with a broken oven that I communicated 3+ weeks ago was broken and could not be used. I have not gotten any updates from the management team, even after having a tech come over and work on the unit. It has now been over a week since that visit and I don't know if they are repairing or replacing my unit. I have sent multiple messages asking for an update, and only the appliance company has provided any update. From Day 1 this property was not move in ready, even though it had been vacant for months leading up to us moving in. I would strongly recommend if you are looking to rent from RPM, please find a unit that is already in working order and tread carefully. I feel like when a property is being listed for rentals, it should be move in ready and not be a dumpster fire for the new tenants to put out. RPM did not do their diligence when listing this property and dumped all the broken appliances and issues onto my wife and I. To RPM, please do better with your management of these properties. Yes the home is old and is going to have quirks to it, but I shouldn't have to beg and plead with your team to get work done and completed. Things can and will break, that's just the nature of property management, but when everything I have listed is broken at Day 1, that is disappointing and doesn't paint you or your company in good light.

I lived here roughly 2 years with few problems, so I just wanted to share my experience:…read more The apartments are located in Westview right off the highway to South 279, which is a quick 15 minutes to North Shore. It's also located to several closeby places that I frequent such as fast food restaurants, a Giant Eagle, etc. As for the apartments themselves, I was pretty happy! You don't pay for water, and the management staff there is pretty friendly and know me by name. They're always available for a quick chat. No problems with leaks, and any maintenance issues are addressed by the next day! They constantly are improving their facilities be it roofing, paving the roads, salting the roads, painting the walls, etc. It's not luxury, but it's very homey and a great place to stay. Not expensive at all for someone right out of college. The walls from the living room to the hall are a bit thin, so you can hear quite a bit in the living room, but once you go to the bedroom you hear nothing at all. I did encounter a rodent one time that had climbed through the vents to pop up under my stove crack, which scared the hell out of me. But Chris the property manager promptly got pest control and helped deal with it! Bugs and roaches are pretty much nonexistent, which was a nice surprise. The best thing that I appreciated however is that after 1 year of living there with a lease, you get a more flexible lease that allows you to give a 30 day notice to vacate after which you can leave after paying 1 more extra month of rent. This was extremely helpful to me as I will be moving to another city soon, and I was somewhat worried about it. All in all, it's clean, management knows what they're doing, and the employees at this apartment really work with you. I highly recommend living here be you a single young worker, a student, or a family!

I would highly recommend this place based on personnel, grounds, and location.
