In This Economy?! How To Buy a House in Pittsburgh
from City Cast Pittsburgh · host City Cast
The Washington Post just wrote a whole article about how we're one of the most affordable cities for home buyers, but if you already live here and aren't moving from a more expensive place, the sticker price and repair costs of our extremely old homes can be completely overwhelming. We're revisiting our conversation with Anne Schwan, a homeownership counselor at NeighborWorks Western Pennsylvania, about what you need to know before you start browsing Zillow and what kind of financial support is available in our region. Plus, she explains how a Pittsburgher started a national housing movement. Check out NeighborWorks' resources for homebuyers and homeowners. **This episode originally aired on July 21, 2025.
