As most residents know, Pittsburgh faced a steep population decline when the steel industry began shedding jobs nearly 40 years ago. That led to many local neighborhoods like Braddock, Homestead, and McKees Rocks falling into disrepair as houses were abandoned. For years, the cost of fixing these houses wasn’t justified based on decrease in property values citywide.
But Pittsburgh today looks very different than it did back then. While there is still a lot of blight in the city, property values have been climbing, causing many to relook at neighborhoods that were once forgotten. But many neighborhoods still contain houses that require significant work, and a lot of homeowners don’t have the resources to correct longstanding problems. That’s where professional real estate investors come in.
Professional real estate investors are familiar with the risks involved in buying properties that need a lot of work. They also often have access to capital that allows them to make significant repairs to properties that homeowners can’t always make on their own. There is a case to be made for these companies, as they take on significant risk to repair assets that would otherwise continue deteriorating. Oftentimes the investment they make in their own properties carries over into other property values in the neighborhood as well, creating a positive cycle of improvement.
This is exactly what McIntosh Management, LP does. We purchase houses in distressed areas throughout Allegheny County and invest in the future of both the property and the neighborhood that it’s in. By conducting our day-to-day business, homeowners in the area will continue to realize higher property values. Read on to learn more about how McIntosh Management, LP is helping homeowners in Pittsburgh while improving the communities nearby.
