Looking for Recommendations for Property Managers in Beaver County PA

[Shaun Reilly]

Hey everyone.

I have a new rental property that I am ready to put on the market located in Freedom, PA located in Beaver county. Nice area a little west of Pittsburgh.

Originally I had a manager all setup, but there have been some issues that made that "solution" impossible.

I own several units North West of here in New Castle in Lawrence county, about 25 miles away. The people I use there aren't really working out here anymore either. I have tried getting in touch with a few places I found online and that I got names from other investors I know but have not even gotten my messages returned.

Any and all recommendations that anyone can give me for an outfit that would pick up a single SFR in the area I'd really appreciate it. IF I can find a good management solution I will most likely be buying more places in the area.

I've never used any of them, but I was looking at a purchase up there but before I did I was doing some due diligence on management companies so I asked another investor I know as he invests there. He's never used them either so neither one of us can vouch for them necessarily, but hopefully this will help you guys at least a little. At the moment, I'm still sticking to the Pittsburgh area so sorry I can't be of more help, my apologies.

Response from February 2012:

Ed Cline’s Premier Property Management is in the area, but I have gotten widely varying opinions on them. Ed is an appraiser and investor, and they manage his own properties. Most of my clients in the area manage their own. Coldwell Banker’s property management division is generally good, but Beaver Falls may be far for them. Bovard Anderson does a good job in Ambridge and Beaver.
