About
John is a Pittsburgher through and through born and raised in New Kensington and currently residing in Oakmont. After 8 years of practicing real estate, John has risen quickly to the peak of the industry, ranked in the top 50* of Realtors® in the West Penn MLS for sales volume. He attributes this success to his passion for his clients, deep local roots in the communities he serves, and his knowledge of the Pittsburgh market. Whether its helping a customer understand the nuances of the home sale/purchase, helping buyers/sellers have the confidence to negotiate, or connecting them with his vast connections to home and building professionals, John approaches every customer experience with the same energy and excitement that creates fanatical clients for life!
Before becoming a Realtor®, John was an award winning and top performing General Manager with Best Buy. Responsible for day-to-day business operations (sales, merchandising, marketing, inventory) of 100+ employees and over 30+ million in sales per year. His passion for business translates perfectly to the real estate industry, where he works tirelessly to provide the highest level of professional service and guidance to those considering selling or purchasing a home. He started in real estate alone and has since grown into a team of agents that work alongside him. This allows John and his team to provide a unique experience to their clients that is unmatched in the region and gives buyers and sellers an edge in a fast paced market. John's background in marketing and sales, combined with his in-depth understanding of the Greater Pittsburgh area market is an incredible asset to his customers. He successfully utilizes both traditional and digital marketing (multi-generational marketing he calls it) to maximize exposure for sellers and provide comprehensive information for buyers. Always staying ahead of real estate trends and keeping on top of market fluctuations, while maintaining a strong business network, gives John a competitive edge that is invaluable to his customers. Locally, John attended Valley High School before he studied at the Pittsburgh Technical Institute for Multimedia design and Point Park University for Business Administration.
John is a member of the Realtors® Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh (RAMP) and volunteers as a coach for Riverview Athletic Association. He also participates yearly in several local causes including Sojourner House where his wife serves on the board of directors. In his free time, John is a rabid Steelers and Pirates fan, and he enjoys spending time with his wife and two young sons.
