Hey guys!
I am new to real estate. I am in the Pittsburgh, PA market. I'm looking for experienced investors to point me in the direction of a trustworthy real estate attorney. Also, I am looking for title and property management companies that are reliable and hard working. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Hey @Eric Kordenbrock, I'm based out of Northern VA so not much help from the PM side unfortunately.However, Two ways to start building the network that worked. #1 REI / BP Meetup groups in your area should be pretty well established. #2 If you need an attorney now and professor google just isn't doing it. Take 2 hours. Look for property management companies in your area and build a spreadsheet of numbers to dial. Call them and ask who handles the majority of their evictions. Might take awhile but your probably going to start getting a name repeated after awhile. This is probably a good guy or gal to start with. You'll know you struck gold when someone gets excited to talk about an eviction! haha.
Side Note - By going with Option 2 as well. You'll get a feel for which PM's actually pick up the phone :) keep a note and you might have a good bead on a PM company to start with as well.

I am also for Brad Dornish. He did a really good job with my last closing and I don't think that I have ever asked him a question that he didn't know the answer to. He's also helped me a lot with reviewing contracts, corporate structure planning, etc.
