Real Estate Agent
Dale is AMAZING! He is patient, honest, composed, and aggressive all at the same time. He made the house-buying process seem like such a breeze during such a crazy market. He answered every phone call, text message, and email with great knowledge and he truly took the time to support us. You would be doing yourself a huge favor by choosing Dale for your realtor needs!
Dale is in a class by himself. First of all, hes absolutely amazing to work with. This was our first home purchase, and he took the time to sit down with us, figure out what we wanted (when we didnt even know), and then he walked us through every single step of the home-buying process. He told us what to expect, gave great advice without pressuring us, and he was calm and reasonable throughout the whole transaction. Im an anxious person, and knowing that Dale was on our side was a welcome relief during such a crazy experience. He was always available to answer our questions and incredibly prompt and reliable in communications. Plus - and this is amazing - our house actually appraised for well over what we paid! All because we had an awesome agent who got us an incredible deal! Seriously, I know that I sound like Im gushing (and I am), but we got everything we wanted, and we absolutely love our new home. Thanks again, Dale!

We have bought and sold numerous properties and our experience with Dale was the best of all of the realtors that we have had. He is extremely hard working and makes himself available any time you need him. His knowledge of the market makes the search much easier. We will recommend him to any friends in need of a realtor.
Dale has been great. He has now sold 3 properties for my family and helped to buy 1. We will continue to use him in the future. He has a great attitude, is responsive and listens. I am convinced that Dale is off to do great things!
Dale was great! We were moving from out of state and he made the process of buying a home from afar much easier, including doing short video tours of a couple of houses we were interested in but could not travel to come see in person. Dale was responsive, knowledgable, and patient, guiding us through several offers/negotiations until we got the right home for us. He provided advice and insight while keeping in mind what we wanted. We would definitely recommend Dale!
Dale was such a huge help along the home buying process. As first time home buyers, we knew very little and he was able to guide us tremendously. He was responsive, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend using Dale as a realtor.

Dale was a great communicator and responded quickly to all of the many questions I had through the home buying process. He was a solid negotiator, bargaining down the seller of our home to make the deal work for us. He was low pressure and was not pushy at all when it came to decision making. After making offers on three houses, and having inspections done at two of them, we closed largely due to Dales hard work. And, when my step mother passed away two days before closing on my new home, Dale was there to let me know that he would make sure everything is in order to I can relax and give my attention to my grieving father. I recommend him wholeheartedly.
Very helpful, trustworthy and knowledgeable. Dale listened to our needs, and explained the process in great detail when the time came for paperwork. Anytime there was a question, he responded quickly with an answer. Our time frame was tight with our previous apartment, so things had to really line up perfectly in order to get all the paperwork done. Walking into the house for the first time, it immediately felt like home. Were really happy and fortunate to have had Dale on our side through all the stress. We had a great time viewing houses and finally finding our perfect home. Dale is patient and understanding, highly recommend!

We could not ask for a more professional, knowledgeable and personable agent. We contacted Dale when we were ready to start looking for our first home. From our first conversation, it was obvious Dale has a solid knowledge of the real estate market. He heard what we were looking for and quickly started providing multiple property listings. When it eventually came time to make an offer Dale provided valuable guidance from the offer to what to expect at close. He was with us through every step of the process. Dale is a true professional and would recommend him to anyone!
Dale Swanton was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him to others. Dale was very accommodating with meeting locations and times. I was a first time home buyer and he did a great job explaining the process to me.
Dale was incredibly helpful and patient throughout our home buying process. We took a long time to find the perfect home and he was with us every step of the way. His knowledge and insight while viewing each home was incredibly valuable and helped us understand exactly what to look out for. Home buying can be an overwhelming experience, but having someone like Dale made the process so much easier. Highly recommended!
I highly recommend Dale for selling or buying a home in Pittsburgh. I have used him as my agent 3 times in just the past few years, to buy 1 house and sell 2. Hes very knowledgeable and can usually answer all my tough questions, if he cant, he finds out and gets back to me the same day. He knows the market, he knows what is worthwhile and what isnt, and hes great about getting showing and giving me plenty of notification. He also went above and beyond to go do a little cleanup after I left town and the buyer wanted a few last minute things changed. Bottom line, just hire him, you will not be disappointed.
For a first-time homebuyer, Dale Swanton is an absolute treat to work with! Dale was kind, patient, and extremely receptive from the very beginning of the homebuying process and kept it up the whole way through. Donald Trump claims you need stamina to run the country? Well, I got the next U.S. President right here. He answered the call (or made it) at all strange hours of the day, worked around our two very different schedules (not counting his own or the sellers), and was upfront and honest with us throughout the entire ordeal. Plus, he always wears awesome socks. Dale paid close attention to what we said we wanted in our first home, and he showed us several good fits. In every home we toured Dale was thorough, pointing out what we didnt see and making note of what we saw and loved (or, you know, hated) and refined our search to match it. THEN, of course, my fiance got on Zillow and found the one that SHE really wanted, which he took in stride and worked his Sweet-Socks magic. Within hours, we were on the tour and within hours of that, he had coached us through making an offer and the rest, as you either know or are soon to find out, was paperwork. Months of it, which Dale also found a way to streamline and put our minds at ease. He really appeared to have our best interests at heart and wanted us into our dream home as soon as possible. Honestly, he probably just didnt want any more two-A.M. emails from my fiance, but eh? Motivation comes in many forms. Dale struck me as extremely knowledgeable, confident, and comfortable as he led us through the minefields of homebuying like a trusted bomb-sniffing dog, and most importantly, he didnt let anything surprise us along the way. The guy is thorough and hardworking, the kind of person you really want representing you if you are buying a home--especially, I believe, if you are in the first time situation that we were in. Hes actually so thorough and hardworking, he was still following up with us while he was on his honeymoon, five time-zones and an ocean away! This guy doesnt let ANYTHING get in the way of outstanding service! All joking aside, Dale was a great guy to work with and he really did make the whole experience very easy and, dare I say it, enjoyable. Id absolutely recommend him to anyone and Id gladly work with him again if we were to ever buy another home, but we hate the act of moving so much that it probably wont happen.
Dale was a calming, assuring presence throughout the entire process of selling my first home to which I was quite emotionally attached. He is knowledgeable and professional, personable and friendly. I asked him a ton of questions from before I started working with him to after the deal was done; he always responded in a timely and helpful manner. His attention to detail and thoroughness impressed me. I am so thankful to have had him on my side.
I would recommend Dale to anyone and everyone. I used Dale as my Sellers and Buyers agent. He gave realistic advice on the initial listing pricing my condominium and when it was time for a lower adjustment in price and the amount that would be expected at that time. As my Buyers agent he was extremely helpful in pointing out pros and cons of the houses I wanted to see. More importantly, as an agent of Howard Hanna, Dale was able to provide a full plate of options available for the sale of my condo and purchase of my new house. This process was a stressful one for me but Dale has that calm patient and approachable personality - not a hard sell type of guy. This was extremely important when the buyer of my condominium ran into issues with their Quicken Loans which delayed my closing twice. This had absolutely no connection to Howard Hanna or Dales process. Due to these unexpected delays from the buyer of my condo, Dale was able to negotiate on my behalf with the seller of my future house to extend closing dates. Dale, sensing my extreme anxiety over the situation - resulting in the actual final closings the week of Christmas, was steady, reassuring and calming. I am forever grateful that he was the right agent at the right time for me. Finally in my house on December 21, 2015, I wake up enjoying it more each day. I am finally creating a home in this house - thanks to Dale Swanton.
Dale was referred to us by Hiward Hanna Mortgage Sevices. He contacted us quickly and set up an appointment with us. He explored with us what we were interested in for a home and we had appointments the very next day. He kept in contact with us daily and worked on our behalf to get the house we wanted. He made sure we knew how the process was going and followed through on every detail. He is very personable. We always felt that he had our best interest.
I highly recommend Dale to anyone who is looking to buy a house. I had the opportunity to have Dale as my realtor and he went above and beyond to assist. He had my best interest in mind the whole time and with all the changes thrown at him in what I was looking for, he found me my house. He worked with me and my hectic schedule. Also, about a week after buying my house, my grandma was locked out and without quesrion, Dale had gone over to see if there was anything he could do to help. He is a great realtor who is extremely knowledgeable of the home buying process and has the individual(s) best interest in mind.
Working with Dale was a pleasure. We met at an open house and as first time home buyers we were completely in the dark about the process. Dale went above and beyond answering our questions and making suggestions. Neither of us are from the area and we relied on Dales expertise to guide us to the perfect home. Dale worked within our budget and timeframe to find the perfect house.
Being a first time home buyer Dale really helped make it an easier process for me. He is very down to earth and easy to talk to and i never felt like i was asking a stupid question with him. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest and truely helpful realtor!
Dale was great!! He was super patient and understanding with our home search even when what we told him originally we wanted changed completely. He was always available with our schedule for looking at homes and was great when showing. He isnt pushy and lets you form your own opinion but is there to answer any questions. He found us a house and then sold our old house within days.
Dale is the first real estate agent I met that was straightforward and honest with me. It goes a long way especially for a first time home buyer like me. The other real estate agents I have dealt with have always tried to hide things that would eventually come out down the road. He approach to real estate allows the home buying/selling process to be done efficiently and effectively. I was completely new to the process and he was always available through phones calls, texts, and emails to answer my questions. He put me in my first house and I could not be happier with the job that he has done.
Dale is easy to work with and very responsive. His expertise of real estate and willingness to listen and work with others is impressive. We had attempted to sale by owner and Dale contacted us in a very respectful and polite manner offering his services. We remembered his non-pushy approach and decided to list with him. We were amazed by the numerous showings and our home sold in 2 weeks.

As a first time home buyer, I was pretty overwhelmed by the process and everything that went into it. Dale helped to make everything more manageable for me during this stressful time and helped me to make a purchase with confidence that everything was going to work out. Any time I had a question, he had the answer. Any time I needed to meet with him, he was available. He was always there to help me with anything that I needed, and the process went smoother than I could have imagined thanks to his help. I always felt as though he was in my corner working to get me the very best deal, and I never felt pressured into anything that I didnt want to do. Dale is a Realtor who works extremely for you.
Dale was very Professional and knowledgeable in the process of helping us to sell our home. He was always available whenever we needed advise on any matter. He also provided us with contacts of people who do specific work that needed done. He always responded to our calls in a very timely fashion. I have already recommended Dale to several people and will continue to do so!!
We were skeptical at first to use Dale to sell our home simply because he had such a bad experience with Howard Hanna in the past and he seemed so young. Dale far exceeded any and all expectations we had. We was patient, kind, honest, and wise beyond his years. He was very knowledgeable of the process and we actually enjoyed looking at homes with him. Often we had to take our 3 & 5 year old boys with us and he was very good with them as well. I recommend Dale to everyone we know.
Dale is a great realtor and was willing to do whatever it took to help us find the home we wanted! We are so happy with our new home! Dale is thorough and very knowledgeable. He is friendly and has a positive attitude.

Dale is an over all outstanding guy. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and knows his stuff. When he said he would do something, it was done as promised. His follow through was top notch!
Dale was my agent for selling my house and buying my current home about a year ago. Dale was always available and did his best to accommodate my wife and I with viewing numerous homes and answered all of our questions through the stressful process. Thanks Dale
Dale is an overall great guy! He is a pleasure to work with. He is professional, knowledgeable, mature, and possesses a level of common sense well above his professional peers. He does what he says, knows his stuff, and responds with the correct answers as he promises! He can always be counted on!
