I am a new investor exploring the Pittsburgh market. I am looking to connect with investor friendly realtors. Additionally, I would love to connect with experienced professionals involved in all aspects of real estate. My goal is to build a solid contact list of people and companies to collaborate with and learn from.

Hi @Chaya Wise, welcome to REI!

You are definitely in the right place.

If you would like a recommendation for an investor-friendly realtor or an investor-friendly lender licensed in PA, please let me know.

You can also try using the "Find an Agent" tool at the top of the screen to find an investor-friendly agent in your area.

Hope this helps! Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Hi Chaya, Welcome to BP. Pittsburgh is a strong market for investors. Often the buy-in is more conducive than other more saturated markets. But you really got to know the areas as they change dramatically, often in the same neighborhood, and sometimes even on the same street. I've lived here my whole life and have seen a lot of changes in my hometown of Pittsburgh. Feel free to reach out to me further. Thanks, Gary

Hi Chaya!

I work for a lender based in Austin, TX but we lend nation-wide. We primarily focus on STRs, BRRRRS, Multifamily, and condos. 

Would love to connect and see how we can grow one another's business!

Excited to hear you're jumping in the Pittsburgh market!

Hey Chaya!

I'm not in the Pittsburgh market, my team is based in Boise, Idaho. 

I just wanted to reach out and connect! My team primarily works with investors and my husband and I are investors ourselves and we are involved in many different aspects of real estate. If you ever want to collaborate or have any questions feel free to reach out!

Good Luck!

Congrats and welcome to Pittsburgh. It's a GREAT market. I love that there are so many options for investing from lower cost purchase to higher end. All types of properties and opportunities and it's always changing. Such a great market. Bigger Pockets is a great place too to talk with other investors and bounce ideas off of one another!
