About Jim Dolanch:
Family matters when it comes to Pittsburgh real estate, and The Jim Dolanch Team will treat you like family.
Growing up Jim often listened to family conversations that centered around real estate, you see his Father, Mother, Sister and Grandfather were all in the business. When he was younger the conversations bored him, but when he reached college age he began to view those conversations differently. He took his first real estate class at Kent State University and he heard many of the same things as he had heard at those dinner table conversations. Class lectures on the local market, interest rates, points and escrow all seemed embarrassingly remedial to Jim. “You know, I don’t want to say that those college courses were easy because I learned a lot,” Jim says, “yet, the truth is I’d heard all of this before, from my family, just about every day of my youth. The whole thing seemed so natural to me.” After all, Jim’s family has been widely regarded as the experts here in the South Hills real estate market for three generations.
So the next step was natural to him, Jim brings his unique understanding to Pittsburgh real estate. All those years listening to and learning from the best gave him a unique understanding of just how important an investment a home is to a family. And, settling down with a family of his own, Jim also realizes exactly how important an investment a home can be, not just emotionally but financially as well. It was obvious to him, how a real estate professional should be a resource for life not just one transaction.
That’s why he always takes the time to find out exactly what his customers are looking for in their transactions. Then, he uses the knowledge of three generations worth of experience to formulate a specific plan geared to achieving results for your individual goals. It’s just something that Jim values very much himself, and when it’s this important to him you can count on him doing his very best for you as well. He just would not settle for anything less from himself.
