[Highland Park] Looking for Referrals - Gutters & Appraisers
by Rob Nichols 17 May '09

17 May '09

Hello HP Residents, I moved to Highland Park from Texas last July after I inherited a house on N. Saint Clair Street when a family member passed away. I now have a leak in my living room that I think is related to the gutters on my house. I have rounded area in my living room with a turret roof over it. The leak is happening in the turret part of the living room and only seems to happen when it rains really hard. I suspect is has something to do with the old box gutters and/or the newer aluminum gutters. Can anyone recommend someone I might call about having my leaky turret roof and gutters looked at to determine where the problem lies? Who have you used that did good work? Beyond that, I am also looking to have my house appraised. My family member's estate has been settled and the last thing left to do is to officially transfer ownership of the house to me. I'd like to have the house appraised first, though. Can anyone recommend a good appraiser? Or, is anyone out there a realtor who might be able to offer me a professional opinion as to what my house is worth? I'm a CMU grad student and am trying to figure out if the house is a good investment. When school is done next May, I will more than likely be leaving Pittsburgh but will keep the house for investment purposes if it seems worth doing so. Many thanks for any referrals. Rob Nichols (412) 432-6122

[Highland Park] The Great Highland Park Yard Sale - Sunday, June 7th
by yardsale＠highlandparkpa.com 16 May '09

16 May '09

It's stormy and overcast outside, a good day to collect all those items cluttering the basement. Take a look through the closet. See all of those clothes you haven't worn for the last couple of seasons? Wouldn't it be nice to trade them in for something more fitting or well-fitting. Haven't played that clarinet since high school band? It could be just the think to inspire a young student. No space left on the bookshelf? Sell those old texts and pick up some new ones. The Great Highland Park Yard Sale is almost here. There is still of time to join in. We will be holding the sale on Sunday, June 7th, the same day as the Bryant Street Festival. We can expect good bargain hunter traffic throughout the neighborhood. This will be a fantastic opportunity to recycle those useful but no longer used items into some cold hard cash. Please see the attached flyer with all the information you will need to participate.
