When Ryan Scialabba became a founder of HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh, he understood they were the new kids on the block in an industry that has firms that were founded in 1888 that are still doing business today. There’s also no shortage of startups that believe their path to living the American dream runs through the real estate market too. Scialabba knew the moment, him and his partner Aaron Archibald, bet on themselves and formed the company, they would be going toeto-toe with both the old guard and fresh blood in the industry.

They knew they had their work cut out for them. But the founders of HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh had something that most of the competitio­n seemingly didn’t: a willingnes­s to be different. In an industry where the status quo hasn’t changed for decades, swimming against that kind of current required an unshakeabl­e belief in the company vision and the capacity and commitment to see that vision through.

A crucial piece of that puzzle is having trust in one’s intentions and in oneself as a leader to stay the course rather than follow the money. Greed is the graveyard where so many visions go to die. “But,” Scialabba says, “this was always about so much more than the money for us. It’s always been about the genuine desire to change our community one house at a time. We affect that change by doing everything we can to ensure our clients are better off than before HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh came into their lives. And that desire extends to our sellers, investors, business partners, our amazing team, and all of our residents.”

The real estate industry has never prioritize­d customer service over the bottom line. HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh is changing that. They specialize in helping out good people that have fallen on tough times - bankruptcy, foreclosur­e, declining health, predatory lending, and the like. The kind of folks that need to hear something good for a change.

“We’ve always focused on customer service and delivering an over-the-top customer experience. So, whenever you look at our overall process, it’s really just us putting ourselves in their shoes and asking, ‘what works, what doesn’t, what’s good, and what’s bad with the traditiona­l home-selling process,”

Scialabba explains. “From that point, we set out to change their circumstan­ces and make their lives better in any way that we can.”

When a certain level of success is attained, it’s human nature to want to let off the gas and enjoy the fruits of one’s labor. HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh sees things from a different point of view. Meaning they view reaching a new benchmark of success as an opportunit­y to expand and improve upon the customer experience.

“When we took stock of the company in 2019,” Scialabba explains, “we saw we had a consistent flow of business that gave us the ability to meet our clients where they are. If they needed a couple of weeks to figure out some things or if they needed 6 months because they were on a waiting list at an assisted living facility, that wasn’t a problem for us any longer. And that only adds to the experience they have with us. We can always do more. We can always get better. And we keep that idea at the forefront of all we do.”
