We were told that we were approved for the place. We were excited and affirmed that we wanted the place and would sign the lease. We emailed some questions about the lease and did not receive a reply. Then we get an email that our lease was removed. We ask whats going on and 6 hours later we get an email that they gave it to someone else that morning. I guess they just tell everyone that they got the place and whoever pays first gets it.

By far the best apartment and management company I have rented with in Pittsburgh! Management and maintenance are super responsive. Whenever I have a question or a minor maintenance request, I always get a response that same day. Also, whenever Jim comes over, he is fantastic with my two cats, who try to escape anytime the door opens!

Of all the places I’ve rented out over the years, the apparment I lived in for 3 years with Marvista was the nicest, and at a really good price. Jim from maintenance was always good at fixing any issue we had. The only issue I had was some lack of organization from them. We went through several property managers while renting from them.All in all, it’s a good company to rent from. They gave us the majority of our security deposit back, and the last 6 months of renting were smoother since they had seemed to find a manager that kept them more organized.

Certainly shocked by the one star review on here. We have rented with Marvista in Squirrel Hill since August of 2016 and they are great. By far the best landlord I have rented from in the Pittsburgh area. Angela at Marvista is extremely responsive to inquiries and requests. Our building is beautifully renovated with high end finishes - they did not cut corners. Any request we submitted to Marvista was handled very quickly. We have loved our experience and would definitely recommend them to anyone.

I rented an apartment from them for one year. By far one of the best landlord companies out there. No problems during the time I stayed, and repairs were done timely. Even when I was moving out, they let me stay for an extra day, for free, because my new places lease started a day later. This contrasts my new landlord, who told me I have to pay for an extra day if I want to move in a day early. Gives you perspective on how good and understanding Marvista rental is!!

One of the most amazing rental I’ve had in Pittsburgh. Owner was polite and responsive as well as the Property manager who was so professional and friendly. Highly recommend the Bartlett Street Apartments as well as this company.

Rented a pretty old apartment. Did a moderate job of maintenance. Not perfect, but no significant damage or anything like that. First of all, such old buildings need to be renovated, they just arent healthy places to live in. However, in this case the real issue is predatory charging by the company. They claimed a $1300 cleaning fee after an initial walkthrough estimated $400. Considering that there was no outstanding damage and that the apartment is already very old and older materials deteriorate more easily it is already questionable whether we should owe $400. But $1300? Seems clear that they were taking advantage of the fact that we were students and none of us were planning on returning the following year. Dont rent with predacious companies!

Marvista Rentals have been nothing but wonderful as current tenants. They are responsive to any requests, easily reachable, and have wonderfully renovated apartments. We moved in August 2016 and have been happy with them since.
