"Joe Yost is the best of the best!! I have been through two home purchases and one sale with Joe, and would recommend him over and over again. Joe and his team did a great job with my most recent sale. It sold quickly at a great price! Joe and his team go above and beyond. I had an issue with retrieving keys for my rental (we are building, my house sold so quickly so we are renting until the new house is done) and Joe was on it! He made arrangements to get the keys for me. This seems like a small example, but it was a huge help to me! If you want someone who is honest, knowledgeable, truly looks out for you and goes the extra mile, Joe is it! " - Sheri

★★★★★
"Joe was super knowledgeable and did a fantastic job helping me search for a great house in a state that I had never been to. He was always very honest with me and I felt that he had my best interest in mind. He was able to give me valuable advice as a first-time homebuyer about things to do during the process, but also about where to search for properties. If that isn't enough, he was always responsive and available around the clock. Him and his team would respond to my calls, texts, emails, etc. very fast and even after hours. I look forward to the day when I can call on him for help again. " - Terral

★★★★★
"The best in the Burgh! When I unexpectedly fell in love with my dream home, completely unprepared to buy and sell a home, Joe immediately brainstormed a plan to make this dream come true. Joe and his team were always available to answer questions, help calm my fears and walked us through it all from offer to closing. I have no doubt that his expert knowledge and established rapport within the Pittsburgh market are the reason that our offer was chosen from a bidding war! The superior customer service doesn’t end at the accepted offer; team Yost was available 24/7 for questions, concerns and guidance even after closing. You cannot get a better agent and team, you want team Yost! Thank you for helping us find and ‘win’ our dream home Joe! " - Jill

★★★★★
"Joe and his team were tremendously helpful in every way. They gave advice, recommendations and comisweated with me every step of the way. They really earned that sales commission. Rarely do I ever come across a service provider that knows their business and works as hard as Joe. Wish I had more business to send his way. " - Colin

★★★★★
"When you are buying or selling a home, I feel the most important aspect of your agent is that they completely understand who YOU are. Anyone can ask what size closets you want and if you want an open kitchen or not, but few take the time to truly understand your lifestyle and how your day to day needs align with what your home should look and feel like. From the moment I first met Joe, he was more concerned about getting to know ME and MY FAMILY and less about what I might like. A great agent is a matchmaker. A Cupid of sorts for home matching to a homeowner. We all are well aware how time consuming and overwhelming the process can be, so you truly need to trust the person who is managing the process and that they are more concerned about your happiness and less about their next payday. You need to feel they are being completely honest, even if it isn’t what you want to hear. You need to be able to TRUST that this person is taking your search as serious as they would their own. I’ve dealt with MANY sales people in my career and the majority of the real estate industry is full of failed sales people from other industries. The best way I can describe this man is to call him an “average Joe” and I mean that as an absolute compliment. You won’t get a salesman or an agent just trying to push the next property. You get an ally in a very difficult and long process. From buying my home when I first to Pittsburgh to selling my home when I left, Joe was a friend who helped me through those 2 processes. Even to the day I was loading my moving vans and he was out there loading with me and my family, Joe showed he wasn’t just about a check because i had no future business to offer this man as I left the state for Good, yet he was still there to help when I needed him most. If you prefer a salesman type who just tells you what you want to hear, then maybe Joe isn’t your guy. But if you want a friend in a process full of misleading agents, pictures and words, then you must at least give this man a call. Thank you Joe." - Jon

About Joe
A dedicated real estate professional with more than 22 years of real estate experience. Joe has been pushing the boundaries of what is possible in Pittsburgh real estate since 2012. In 2024 his team sold 124 transactions for $46 million dollars. It was also his best year to date, with $27 million in personal closings. Joe was born and raised in Pittsburgh but got his real estate start in Phoenix and Scottsdale Arizona. 

Joe's real estate expertise includes a breadth and depth of experience with new construction, move-up buyers, high-end homes, first-time home buyers, and investment properties, making him the go-to guy for buyers with diverse needs. Additionally, he’s well-versed in the latest technology, which means his clients enjoy fast, effortless transactions. Ultimately, he seeks to deliver the kind of experience that makes clients refer friends and family, which appears to be working as 84 percent of his 2024 transactions came from repeat or referral business.

While Joe loves helping local friends buy and sell, he also enjoys working with buyers who are relocating to the area – mostly because it allows him to share the city he loves with folks from coast-to-coast and everywhere in between. He has helped buyers from as far away as Beijing make Pittsburgh their home. Thriving on the challenge of finding people a home they’ll love, he knows the right neighborhood is every bit as important as the right property. As such, his first meeting with buyers often involves acquainting them with the area, schools, and even where to find the best pizza! Willing to go to great lengths to find the right fit, he has even been known to coordinate private tours of schools for his clients. His love for supporting locally owned business is something you always hear him talking about. He has been an active Make A Wish volunteer for the past 11 years. An avid sports fan but most importantly he loves watching and coaching his two boys, Maddox and Beckett on the baseball diamond.  He resides with his wife Danielle and two boys in Mt Lebanon in the South Hills of Pittsburgh.
