Transforming Squirrel Hill’s historic properties into modern homes since day one.
OUR STORY
Squirrel Hill Rentals was founded with a simple belief: renters deserve better. Too many landlords acquire properties and rent them as-is — outdated plumbing, aging wiring, drafty windows, and appliances past their prime.
We took a different approach. Every property we acquire undergoes a complete renovation — from the foundation to the roof. We replace plumbing and electrical systems, install energy-efficient windows and insulation, and fit each unit with modern kitchens, updated bathrooms, and climate control systems. The result is a home that honors Squirrel Hill’s iconic architectural character while delivering the comfort and quality that today’s residents expect.
With nearly 100 rental units across 15 properties, we’ve become one of Squirrel Hill’s most trusted names in residential leasing — and we’re just getting started.
OUR RENOVATION PROCESS
When we acquire a new property, we don’t cut corners. Here’s what goes into every Squirrel Hill Rentals home.
All copper and PEX plumbing, upgraded electrical panels, and modern wiring throughout. No band-aid fixes — everything runs new.
Energy-efficient double-pane windows and modern insulation keep your utility bills low and your home comfortable year-round — Pittsburgh winters included.
Stainless steel appliances, solid countertops, quality cabinetry, and thoughtful layouts designed for real cooking — not just reheating takeout.
Tiled showers, modern vanities, quality fixtures, and proper ventilation. Clean, bright bathrooms that feel brand new — because they are.
Central heating and air conditioning in every unit. Individual thermostat control so you set the temperature that’s right for you, in every season.
Hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in every unit, secure entry systems, and well-lit common areas. Your safety is non-negotiable.
LOCAL MANAGEMENT
We’re not a faceless corporate landlord. Our management team lives and works in Squirrel Hill. When something needs attention, we respond quickly — because these are our neighbors. From routine maintenance to emergency repairs, you’ll always reach a real person who knows your building and your neighborhood.
