Lebanon, Upper St. Clair and Peters Township like the back of his hand. Being in real estate since 2011, he’s been able to make connections and gain referrals to grow his business to the point where he’s become a well-known player as a Realtor®. “Prior to my career in real estate, every job I’ve ever had was customer-service based, mostly with smaller, family-owned companies where client relationships were crucial to maintain,” Waite said. “So paying attention to and getting to the core of what makes my clients happy is a strength of mine that helps whether you’re working with first-time home buyers or luxury market clients.” And, if you’re looking to buy or sell a luxury home, Waite excels in that arena. He was integral in growing the Elite Homes Division of his last real estate firm and has mastered the art of quality marketing. “The great thing about having so much experience in the luxury market is that the same principles I use to market high-end homes can be applied to every home I list, no matter the price,” he said. “We really believe that luxury is a service, not a price point, and every client deserves that attention to detail, whether they’re just starting out or buying a multi-million-dollar home.” Waite also is a Certified International Property Specialist, which is a highly skilled designation that caters to professionals and people who are looking to buy and sell homes across global borders. “It’s becoming more and more popular to purchase second homes in other countries, so I love that I can offer that service to my clients, and, on the flip side, there are a lot of people moving to the US, specifically to Pittsburgh, from around the world,” Waite said. “I have also worked with many international investors who are looking to buy in Pittsburgh due to our low cost of living, ROI, and housing market growth, so it’s been a valuable certification to have.” Joining forces two years ago with a global brand like Sotheby’s International Realty has only added to the services that Waite provides his clients. Waite’s ability to build relationships with others has been at the core of growing his business and he’s not averse to working with other agents on his clients’ behalf. “I partner with other agents in my company all the time and really enjoy collaborating with them when it’s in the best interest of our clients,” he said. “At the end of the day, it’s their happiness and satisfaction that I care about most, and I’m willing to bring in any contractor, expert or agent who will help us get to that goal.” For more information on Conrad Waite of Piatt Sotheby’s International Realty, including all of the homes currently listed with him, go to his website at cwaite.piattsothebysrealty.com.
