RE/Max Realty Pittsburgh is a New City!

As an urban living enthusiast and real estate professional at RE/MAX Select Realty, Kathy Wallace has handled the marketing and pre-sales for the city’s sold-out 941 Penn condos (downtown), the Otto Milk building (Strip District), Glass Lofts (Friendship) and LoLa Lofts (Lawrenceville). She remains active in the marketing and sales of these and other buildings in the city.

For information on re-sales of existing units or upcoming projects and listings,

contact her by phone (412-855-8419) or email (kathy@newcitymarketing.com).

Kathy: “The development of condos in Pittsburgh has created vertical neighborhoods of stakeholders who want to live exciting, active lives in an urban environment with diversities of culture, entertainment, outdoor and social activities. I love living and working downtown. These days Pittsburgh really does feel like a brand new city.”

Housing Authority City of Pittsburgh

HACP will help address the city’s growing demand for affordable housing by opening its Housing Choice Voucher Program to new applicants, with the goal of adding 5,000 families to its waiting list through a lottery system.

Applications will be accepted online between April 28 and May 11, 2014. As rental prices continue to rise and the city’s stock of affordable housing becomes increasingly scarce, HACP anticipates that up to 20,000 applications will be submitted for the lottery. In order to accom-

modate the high volume of applications, HACP will be using an online-only application system, housed at: www.hacp.org. Applications can be submitted from any public or personal computer, tablet, or smart phone with internet access.

“Pittsburgh families are in dire need of affordable housing options and re-opening the HCV Waiting List should provide relief to the thousands of individuals struggling to find an affordable place to call home,” HACP Executive Director Caster D. Binion said.
