~ Mark Anderson

I "met" Lynn by using Zillow after becoming disgusted with the rental situation around Carnegie Mellon. We decided to look at condos and Zilow put us in touch with Lynn. From the minute I spoke with her, she treated me with sincere kindness and professionalism. She put me on the MLS and within a week I had identified a property, put in an offer and went into escrow. with in a week of our meeting on the phone Being that I am on the west coast, I could not go see the property. Lynn went there, took photos and was a huge help. After the closing, she arranged for the carpet to be shampooed and the unit to be cleaned. We have never met in person, someone else might not have taken me as a serious buyer, especially from a referral like Zilow. We will be selling the condo in a few years, as our son is doing a 2 year MBA program. I will list it with Lynn as I have full confidence in her !!!!! In a world where service is lacking, Lynn goes above and beyond! Thank you, Lynn.

~ D.A.

She was honest, incredibly knowledgeable, and she really cared about my daughter and I.

~ Jacob Brezinski

Personable, realistic, didn’t mind when i asked stupid questions. Also she has quite an arsenal of resources available for things like home inspection, sewer inspection, etc

~ M.J.H.

Promoted our house in print and by many open houses. Professional photographs were very well done.

~ William Jackman

Everything she did was upfront; she pulled no punches and told me the way things operate in the housing market. She was realistic and helped me look at the housing market realistically.

~ Jeffrey Serventi

Everything! Lynn was there with us every step of the way. She genuinely cared and listened any time we had a question or concern. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone we know looking to buy or sell.

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2018 in Pittsburgh, PA.

Lynn has helped my family through buying and selling two homes. She is a master at getting the myriad of tasks completed on time, and with great quality of service. We could have chosen a different realtor or a different company, but we wanted Lynn. I highly recommend Lynn for her skill level as well as her kindness and understanding of the many elements (like time and money!) that go into a real estate transaction. She will not let you down.

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2018 for approximately $325K in Monroeville, PA.

Lynn was great! Not only did she sell my home quickly with professional photography, she found us a beautiful home that fits our family perfectly. Lynn was always professional and has many great contacts to help with buying/selling a home. This was a bonus that we did not know we were getting. Lynn's knowledge, along with her great attitude made selling and buying an awesome experience. She was with us every step of the way.

Bought a Single Family home in 2017 for approximately $375K in Etna, PA.

What a joy it was to work with Lynn! She is incredibly knowledgeable about the area and has tons of experience. She is a hard worker, responding at all hours of the day. But I think most importantly, she was someone I could trust to have my best interests at heart, and I never doubted her intentions for a moment. We found my dream home and got a great price on it. She walked me through the whole process and was very patient with me, answering all of my questions since I was a nervous, first-time buyer.I would work again with her without hesitation. Thank you for everything, Lynn!

Bought a Single Family home in 2017 for approximately $200K in Oakmont, PA.

Lynn not only knows the industry and the area well, but she can be trusted to provide you with sound advice. I was in the process of purchasing a house in the spring of 2017 when we discovered many issues during the home inspection. Lynn helped me to see that this was not the house for me and that I needed to walk away. She then worked with me all summer to find the house I really wanted. I now live in the neighborhood I wanted and in the ideal house for me. I would not be here if she had not helped me see that the first house I tried to buy was not for me. She put my needs before her commission and worked hard to find me the perfect house. I can't say enough good things about her!

Lynn was very helpful in helping me find properties that fit my wants and budget in the Shadyside area.

Sold a Single Family home in 2017 for approximately $425K in Cheswick, PA.

Lynn is an excellent real estate agent. She was extremely familiar with our development and builder and provided guidance on what improvements help sell your home and those that don't. Most importantly, she saw how 'show ready' we were and was proud to display our home in the local newspapers as well as support an open house.As a result, we sold our home within 1 week of listing it and she addressed all questions and issues we had in a timely and caring manner. She was supportive of our asking price and did not 'stretch' the price in the risk that our home would sit.She is a strong negotiator and knowledgeable in the area of the township where we resided.

Bought a Condo home in 2017 for approximately $175K in Southside Flats, Pittsburgh, PA.

We discovered Lynn Niman on Zillow and found that she specilizes in serving academic and health care professionals. She's an expert on Pittsburgh neighborhoods and who to work with for financing. Lynn was responsive via email, text, and phone, and went out of her way to be available on our schedule and time frame. This turned out to be important since our personal circumstances limited the amount time we could spend in Pittsburgh. We ended up finding the perfect condo for a young medical resident in a great building & a happening neighborhood. We would definitely recommend Lynn to anyone looking for a home.

Bought a Single Family home in 2015 for approximately $400K in Point Breeze, Pittsburgh, PA.

Lynn is wonderful!! I don't even know where to start: she worked with us in buying a SFH in Point Breeze over a period of ~6 months, 3 of which we were actually seriously looking and 1 in closing. She has been great every step of the way in guiding us through the buying/mortgage/closing process, and is extremely seasoned in the local market and nuances about houses.She gets things done. She starts early in the morning and works until midnight if that's what it takes. I've had multiple phone conversations with her around 11pm to discuss urgent things that need to be addressed quickly, and she never complaints about any of that. Once we make a decision she usually gets more information or a response the same or next day. I can't speak more highly of her work ethics and how efficient she is in moving things forward.She is very knowledgeable of the Pittsburgh market. I know she works out of the Fox Chapel office and all around the metro area, but just how much she knows about each neighborhood we looked at, and even individual streets, really amazes me. By talking to her during our showings I got to know a lot about different areas and their pros/cons, not just from her as an agent, but from her experience dealing with many people buying and selling in this market. I can't be happier with the choice she helped us make in the end.She knows many types of contractors/handyman/inspector, which makes the inspection and the negotiation that follows a breeze. This is going back to the first point again, but she has a list of people that are honest and can get things done quickly (stopping by to evaluate issues, giving quotes, etc), and we ended up getting very fairly reimbursed from the seller for the possible maintenance issues in the house. We actually used a few of the contractors she introduced for the renovation after we moved in.This doesn't do justice to describe how incredible she is as a buyer's agent. There are many things she did that I'm still grateful for, months after we closed. Lynn is simply the best.

Bought a Condo home in 2015 for approximately $150K in Squirrel Hill North, Pittsburgh, PA.

We recently purchased a condo from out of state for our college student who is already in Pittsburgh. I found Lynn on some website with excellent reviews. Lynne seemed to understand what we want very well and soon after my first phone call, she found a perfect property. I did not come in to Pittsburg at all until after closing, but she made the whole process very easy for us. She went to the property as soon as it was put on the market despite of the very bad weather, arranged the inspection in a timely manner, and negotiated well so that we could get it within our budget even though the property was in a great condition and in a very desirable location. She was very personable and always responsive. I cannot thank enough for her thoroughness and professionalism. She is truly amazing. I would highly recommend Lynn without reservation.

Bought a home in 2015.

We just purchased our new house! Lynn is our agent. I saw her information in the website of Zillow. I called her on the day before Chirstmas eve. I didn't expect her to take me to the house on Chirstmas eve. But she agreed!That is Lynn. She is working very hard. Sometimes I'm even wondering she should take more rest! We lost the first house. She told us we should offer a little higher if we really wanted this house. We didn't because we thought we might have chances too. But we failed. So I think we should trust her more.This house we have now also had a multiple offer. We finally got it With her help. She is a nice person, more like a good friend, a sweet heart. I always missed my mom when I saw her!If you want to buy a house, I recommend Lynn. She is a very good agent. But remember every agent is not perfect. You even couldn't expect too much from your mom. Hope you agree with me. What you need to do is to find a good one. And you need to tell her what you want and what you don't want. Remember communication is very important!

We connected, but it did not work out. Looking in Pittsburgh, PA

I never met Ms Niman. That wasn't from lack of trying. I contacted her to assist me in buying a home in Pittsburgh. I live in Washington state so I told her that I needed to arrange a cross-country trip to begin my search. She agreed to assist me so, in response, I told her I would go ahead and arrange my trip, gave her the dates I planned to be in Pittsburgh, and provided my contact hotel information. After getting my logistics in place including non-refundable tickets, I contacted Ms. Niman again to confirm my trip plans and to begin planning my search. During the following three or four weeks, she did not respond to my requests for contact. I panicked and finally found another agent. The day before I was leaving to go to Pittsburgh, Ms. Niman finally deigned to respond to my prior requests for contact. My feeling was that I was being treated with disrespect and being patronized. She may have great knowledge of Pittsburgh but in my book being helpful, providing service, being responsive (a couple of days is fine but a few weeks? really?) are the hallmarks of a good agent. She was not helpful, she did not provide service, she was not responsive.

I bought and sold with Lynn. She is professional, knowledgeable, quick to respond, good at her job, and personable. She works very hard for you, she would often send us emails at 2 in the morning. When people were slow to respond she would call them 5 times a day.Both our sale and purchase went perfectly due to her communication and hard work. We bought a house in Squirrel Hill in a very competitive market and she successfully guided us through a multiple bid situation.

Bought a home in 2014.

I don’t even know if I have the words to describe how great Lynn was in our complicated home purchase. She is without a doubt the hardest working and knowledgeable agent that I’ve ever worked with. She really goes the extra mile and chooses to do so because she really loves what she does. We were in the process of moving to the Pitt area from overseas, so about 2 months before our arrival we started looking for potential agent to help us find a home in a short amount of time. I found Lynn after reading the great reviews from her Trulia page and contacted her immediately to start our process. I can personally confirm that the positive reviews are justified. She is absolutely tireless and would answer or return all forms of communication promptly and thoroughly, even if she probably thought that I was crazy at times with some of my ideas. We started working with Lynn as early as possible so that she had an idea of what we were looking for. We finally arrived to the Pitt area, and even though it was right at the Christmas and NY holiday time she took time away from her own family to show us a bunch of houses. Well, we quickly found a house which we got under contract but the story doesn’t end there. To make a long story short, the sellers backed out of the sale two weeks before closing leaving us with no home and rising bills. Lynn then worked with us to start the process all over again and we started viewing houses almost every day through weekdays and weekends in an effort to find another home. She contacted colleagues for information on houses that had just been listed so we had a better idea of their history before we viewed them in the hope of saving a little time. Well the good news is that we found a home that would be a much better fit for my family then the house we originally had on contract and it was all due to Lynn’s intelligence and work ethic. My family didn’t just gain a new home and an outstanding agent; we gained a friend.

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $200K in Oakmont, PA.

My wife and I worked with Lynn for approximately 4 months to find our first home. During that time Lynn always shared great insight into the real estate market and her professional opinion of each home we viewed.Being first time home buyers we constantly had questions. Lynn responded via email, phone or text at all hours of the day/night in a very timely manner. Additionally, if Lynn did not have best answer she knew someone that could help. For example, Lynn recommended a fantastic Mortgage Adviser who was always there to assist with the financial questions.As Lynn could not be at our closing (due to the one vacation she has taken in several years) she still made sure to follow up with us from the airport and ensure the closing was going smoothly.From start to finish Lynn was always there to help in any way possible and she made the first time home buying experience a pleasure!

Bought a home in 2012 in Allison Park, Hampton Township, PA 15101.

Lynn was the second realtor that my wife and I worked with when buying our first home. After less than satisfactory experience with the first Lynn was much, much better. She was very responsive (I'm not sure she ever sleeps), patient with us being new to the entire process, willing to look at a number of houses with us, and offered helpful advice when looking at houses. She also knows her area (northern Pittsburgh suburbs) very well. She also helped us figure out where our offers on varuious houses we tried to buy/bought needed to be. We eventually found our house and Lynn made the closing process quite manageable.If we ever have to move again and look for another house (please god no) I'd work with Lynn again in a heartbeat.

April 30, 2013 Dear Lynn, My mother and I would like to thank you for your help with the recent sale of my late grandmother’s house. You were a true professional and went above and beyond the call of duty. Since I do not live in the area, I thought marketing the house would present a difficult challenge. However, you were knowledgeable about the area and the market. You were always accessible and responsive to calls and questions, and you constantly kept us informed of all developments. We especially appreciate the time you spent handling the home inspection, dealing with the repair vendors, and representing us at closing. Your support, wise counsel, patience, and reassurance made the process go smoothly and stress-free. It was a pleasure working with you and we would gladly recommend you to anybody looking to buy or sell a house. We are confident that your future clients will also be extremely impressed with the caliber of your services. Best wishes for a success in all your future endeavors.

Lynn is the best. We have worked with many agents over the years and it always seemed like pulling teeth to get them to understand our goals. Then they would forget. With Lynn, there is no wasted time, no restating of our goals. She is easy to talk to, intelligent, and really knows the area. She is our real estate agent for life. We could not be happier! I would be happy to speak with anyone who is considering going to Lynn to buy or sell a house. She has our solid endorsement.

Lynn Niman introduced us to the Pittsburgh real estate market when we were relocating from Los Angeles. She presented options in a wide variety of neighborhoods, was proactive in identifying opportunities in our price range and listened to our needs and wants. Ultimately, she found us a home in an area she usually doesn't work, because it was good for us (we're in Squirrel Hill, and Lynn's area is Fox Chapel). She negotiated vigorously for us on both price and fixes while we were still in L.A. I recommend her highly for your real estate needs.

After reading her reviews, I decided to give her a try and she did not disappoint. Throughout the entire process from looking at houses through the closing, Lynn exceeded our expectations. Her experience, in-depth knowledge, industry and community connections, savvy negotiating skills complemented by her attentive and easy going personality made the process enjoyable and fun. Lynn was proactive in our search, gave invaluable realistic advice, was always available when needed, and took care of all of the details. She made the entire experience a positive one for all involved-- including the seller. With Lynn on your team, you can be confident she will work diligently on your behalf to assist you in finding the home that's right for you.

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $125K in Pittsburgh, PA.

As first time homebuyers, my wife and I couldn't have found a better person than Lynn. She was honest, knowledgable, and was always available if we had questions or needed to meet with her at the home for any reason. She was able to keep the wheels turning as far as negotiating contracts and keeping all parties in the loop whenever changes would occur. She truly fought tooth and nail for us up to the point where I was finally holding the keys in my hand to our new home. Needless to say, she made our first home buying experience very enjoyable and I would highly recommend her to my frends and family or any young couples looking for buy their first home.

Lynn has helped us buy two homes and sell one. She has been absolutely excellent. As a first time home buyer, she led us through the process with accuracy, patience, and understanding. She was extremely knowledgeable about each facet of the buying and selling process. She is also very accessible via phone or e-mail for our last minute questions or concerns. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Lynn Niman is an extremely knowledgable and qualified agent. No one knows the neighborhood like she does. She can provide you with information about not just the house, but about the neighborhood and the local schools. Her ability to help negotiate the many obstacles that can come with closing impressed myself and my wife.

Sold a home in 2013 in Montrose Hill, Blawnox, PA 15238.

We are first time home buyers. We did search for 1 year. saw many houses with different agents and finaly bought a house through Lynn Niman. After inpection, we found a Family Room ceiling damage from the bath room tub. We brought this to her attention multiple times. She assured us that it will be covered by the AHS warranty company. 2 days after closing, massive amounts of water came down in the Family room from the 2nd floor bath room resulting in the ceiling damage and floor damage. AHS warranty company said it will not cover this. Lynn Niman started blaming this to the home inspector etc..I called Fox Chappel Prudential Preffered manager Jan Schoeneberger. She was totally biased and completely disconnected with this issue. I asked her to forward this case to her supervisor. I havenot talked to the supervisor yet.There were other interesting experiences happened during this home buying process.My advice: BE CAREFUL

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $775K in Glenshaw, PA.

I am very lucky and blessed to find Lynn Niman at the internet! My family and I were looking for a house in Pittsburgh at the internet, and after finding a house that we liked, in a Saturday evening, we decided to call the agent listed there. We called the first name listed, but the agent did not answer. Then we called the second agent listed, Mrs Lynn Niman. That was really a lucky for me and my family! She was so nice at the phone, and after getting some information, she told us that she could show us 2 more houses same style we liked next day! I was so happy! I fall in love with the second house she showed us! She understood exactly what my family need, the school district we are looking for, even the elementary school we would like for our kids! She knows everything about the area and the process, and all the time my family and I feel so confident and comfortable with her. It was so peaceful to work with her in all aspects! No headaches at all! Highly recommended!!

Lynn is an excellent agent, she is very attentive, pays close attention to the features a buyer is interested in, she is very helpful with advise and is happy to offer her expertise be it an existing home or a new construction with a local contractor. We temporary suspended our search, due to the change in our personal circumstances, but when we are ready to start looking again, we will definitely contact Lynn again. I would recommend her to our friends and family without reservation.

Bought a Condo home in 2012 for approximately $100K in Aspinwall, PA.

Lynn Niman was fantastic to work with. She really knows a lot and has a great network that she'll connect you with (from mortgage brokers to home inspectors and contractors). Lynn made herself available whenever needed (from early morning meetings to late night signings) and was always quick to respond by email or phone. She provided good insight to help me make the right decisions for me and my family, and she helped move the whole process along quickly.

Lynn is an incredibly hard worker who will work on your behalf to find what you are looking for. It takes alot of time plodding through almost every house that is available in one's price range to find the house that is suitable for one's needs. Lynn definately puts in the time and is willing to do the plodding along with you as she shows you every house that may be a possibility. And when you need her in a pinch with difficult scheduling, she does her best to meet you at that house before the sun sets, or before anyone else gets into it, or during your lunch hour, or whatever the situation may be.

Ms. Niman is the type of real estate agent who knows her market accurately and informs her clients accordingly. She understands local property values and trends in sales by neighborhood. She is very easy to work with.Please not: this site does not allow the option of "N/A" with its several star rating categories, so the "Negotiation skills" rating is extrapolated from her other fine qualities.
