Here are some of the things I can do for you...
Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.

Testimonials
"Dave was fantastic throughout the whole process (his photographer is amazing as well- wait till you see how good He makes your house look). He truly went the extra mile for us in getting our house through closing. Though we moved to much warmer weather, if we ever do return, I’d only want to work with Dave. I wholeheartedly recommend him if you are in the market in the greater Pittsburgh area. Thanks again, Dave!"
-Brandon T., Client
"If I could give a 6 on everything I would. Dave is a dream come true. He was super patient with us as first time home buyers and guided us every step of the way. I could feel he had genuine interest in our success. He steered us away from a problem house (which I now call the 'landslider'), advised us to submit the winning offer during a bidding war (we lost out to an all-cash buyer), and deftly negotiated a fair deal during the closing of our lovely new abode. Recommended astronomically and looking forward to the privilege of working with him again!"
-Troniak, Client
