Any time I had a problem with maintenance issues Lisa had someone there in a jiffy. I got almost the whole security deposit back which was expected as my son accidentally broke a ceramic soap dish in the shower. I would still be there if I didn't have to move close to my mom as she is older and needed me to be close. If I ever would need a place I would see Craig and team again, it was a great experience.

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!!!!!!

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.

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.

If you're looking for an amazing apartment or a…read morehome, wonderful people who truly care about you and your needs, and an amazing team of professionals in both the office and on the maintenance team, Steiner Realty is truly for you. I've lived in a Steiner apartment for four years, and it has been the best experience I've ever had. They truly go over and beyond. The maintenance team immediately fixes any issues that may arise (they take amazing care of their properties, so there aren't really any issues to begin with!), the folks in the office really take their time answering any and all questions, and they truly care about their renters. I moved cross country for the first time in my life, and the folks in the office really made the whole process easy for me. If I could live in this apartment forever, I would. They are super nice, informative, professional, hardworking, and overall outstanding. Even my introverted cats who are scared of everyone except my wife and I LOVE the maintenance team, so that says a lot. Everyone at Steiner Realty truly deserves a raise, in my opinion. I've worked as a Leasing Agent before, so I have extremely high standards- Steiner absolutely went over and beyond my standards in every aspect. The quality of my apartment is outstanding, and I have been absolutely blown away by how amazing my time has been while living here. They keep everything super clean- they even salt the sidewalks and parking lots before any storm, big or tiny. They always answer the phones immediately when you call, and they take their time with you. If someone was in my parking spot, they would have them towed immediately for me. One of my light bulbs went out, and they came and replaced ALL of my lights, and even gave me extra bulbs. They even email you after you get maintenance done to make sure you are happy with the results. They all truly go over and beyond. I could go on and on. More people need to know how amazing Steiner is, and how amazing their properties are too.

We really lucked out finding a 2 bedroom apartment in our building. We have lived here for 3 years now and love the parking, central air, laundry, gym, and secure front door. Any time we have an issue (usually our heater or air conditioner not kicking on), the maintenance person Rick fixes it immediately. Rick is the best!! He is so nice and patient, and really cares about the tenants. All of the maintenance guys are friendly and always say hi when passing by. Our refrigerator broke last year, and they ordered a new one and installed it just a few days later. I love that the management is responsive if you have an issue. Some apartments will never get back to you, but we have never had that problem here. We originally rented our apartment from Jeff, but the new manager is Nina. She is great too. The staircases and laundry room are cleaned every week, and there are nice flowers and potted plants out front in the Summer. I have no complaints about these apartments! It's also easy to pay rent on their online portal.

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.

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.
