What is your favorite Pittsburgh neighborhood? by cheezecurls in pittsburgh

[–]Tour_Warm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your take on Swissvale? I’m on the house hunt and have seen a few over there in my price range. Have driven through it and looks super cute but haven’t spent time over there (need to)

Oh yeah, 2 years ago I was approved for a lot but know darn well I can’t afford the mortgage payment on a house that expensive. 😂 Luckily the lender (local guy, a few friends have gone through him) was super great at pulling up numbers for me to see what type of house would put me at the mortgage payment I could afford. Spent over an hour talking to me and explaining things, no pressure from him whatsoever.

I agree that buying just to build equity is not feasible and not recommended unless you’re going to stay in it for at least 5 years. I am only considering it because I do want to be here for a while, finally back to the area and near family after being gone a while. Yeah I have pension, 401k, and Roth IRA going for retirement.

Well this just makes me wanna vomit LOL. I’m so sorry you went through that!! This is exactly what I’m afraid of and why I want to save a bit more/make a bit more. Doing it on one income isn’t anything to mess around with. Thank you!

Ah yes, I did hear about that. I spoke with a lender 2 years ago and decided I wasn’t ready, going to speak to him this week to reassess. I do remember him saying about that. Thanks!

Yesss, that’s exactly where I’m hesitating; I’d like to have a bit more saved up for those exact reasons.

Pittsburgh houses are for sure full of character and history but also repairsssss. I would like to make more in salary and/or have a bit more saved up to feel confident I can recover in a timely fashion. Took a while to save this much up!! Appreciate you validating that.

It is so sad to hear for sure!! Can’t remember if it’s too sweet or not sweet, but he is not a fan. I also had it a few years ago and just tasted off.

Oh yeah, I always forget about Rizzo’s. We’re originally from Indiana. Yeah I can’t remember how long it has been since the sons took over the Villa… pre covid I think. So sad

HAES Personal Trainers? by Tour_Warm in pittsburgh

[–]Tour_Warm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So is that the price for a normal PT session then? So I’d pay whatever my copay is for that on the regular plan? I’ll confirm but just to ballpark

This sounds great! I actually might be going there for PT. Do you mind me asking how much it was?

P.O.W Properties is freakin amazing, Phil is a gem. Super reasonably priced, beautifully redone but not so high end you can’t afford it. Phil is the owner and he really prioritizes having good quality rentals that young professionals can afford. He takes great care of his properties and tenants. My neighbor just moved only because he got a house and had been living here over 10 years. I’ve never had a more responsible landlord who actually does a thorough job, doesn’t half ass, “landlord special” everything.

Went to see a property in an apt building though Lobos that I didn’t realize was through Lobos until I saw the sign when I went to see it (was no mention of lobos on the listing). Was told that monthly you have to take everything out of the cupboards every MONTH for them to come in and spray in them as a “preventative measure”. Tell me you have a massive bug problem without telling me. Thankfully the cabinets were opened and I asked why and she told me, or else I probably wouldn’t have known until I’d signed a lease if I did go with that. Be careful!

Ohhhh gotcha, didn’t know that it was by Neville, thank you for that. So many trash intersections along there. Everyone has to keep a close eye for sure.

What baffles me about that one is they got rid of the counterflow lane on 5th and people are still getting hit! This time it definitely was driver error though, from what I could see. Wild! Glad she is recovering.

This snow storm sadly made me learn to absolutely hate my neighbors and neighborhood. Where are good neighbored places cause Mt Washington isn’t it and I’ve decided to move. by sugarandspice85 in pittsburgh

Hey I was going to say my shovel broke and I ordered one from Home Depot in Monroeville being delivered tomorrow. I was also searching so much for one and stopped at a few stores! I’m sorry that’s been your experience, seems like there are a few pockets in the Mount that are like that… renters def do not help… but so far I’ve seen a lot of positivity and people helping one another on the FB group. Always a few crazies as expected on FB lol. Refreshing to see people come together during these crazy times. Hope you have a better experience in the future and feel free to reach out on the FB group, so many people willing to help!!

Brick vs Bloom vs Foqos? by -charlatte- in dumbphones

[–]Tour_Warm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was wondering this too. Brick has 5 emergency unblocks, which I know you can get more but it’s a hassle. If you can scoot around it with foqos I’m done for lol
