Spotlight for Milestone Realty

Milestone Realty: A Boutique Brokerage Built on an Owner’s Mindset

Founded in 2022, Milestone Realty is a boutique real estate brokerage built on experience, intention, and an owner’s mindset. Led by owner Myles Mazzanti, the company specializes in residential sales, investment properties, and property management.

Mazzanti brings more than 12 years of industry experience to the brokerage. He began his career as an investor and landlord before becoming a licensed real estate agent in 2017 and working with several brokerages prior to launching Milestone.

“I started in real estate as an investor, and that really shaped how I approach the business,” Mazzanti said. “We manage properties the same way I would want my own investments handled.”

Milestone Realty currently manages more than 300 apartments and houses and works closely with real estate investors. The firm has also developed a niche in REO properties, assisting banks, asset managers, and homeowners through the sales process.

“Our size allows us to be more focused on our clients,” Mazzanti said. “Being a boutique brokerage lets us stay hands-on and responsive, rather than focused on volume.”

Growth remains a priority for the company, with plans to reach 500 managed properties within the next two to three years. That growth is supported by a small by experienced team, including property management, maintenance staff, leasing support, and administrative professionals.

Despite the demanding workload, Mazzanti says the rewards of real estate make it worthwhile.

“Helping people with what is often the biggest purchase of their life is incredibly rewarding,” he said. “It also gives me the flexibility and independence that are important to me.”

Beyond business, Mazzanti remains deeply involved in the community. He is a co-founder of Skyline Recovery, a nonprofit providing transitional housing for individuals recovering from substance use disorders and mental health challenges. He also serves on the board of the Brookline Teen Outreach Center, where Milestone Realty is an active sponsor, and volunteers with Cancer Bridges, a cancer support center in Pittsburgh.

It’s this combination, professional drive, personal investment, and community commitment, that defines Milestone Realty’s trajectory.

“We’re busy,” Mazzanti said with a laugh. “That’s probably my biggest challenge. But it’s a good problem to have.”

As Milestone Realty continues to grow, its foundation remains the same: a brokerage built by an owner, for owners, one milestone at a time.

Testimonial Letter from Milestone Realty

To whom it may concern,

I would like to take this opportunity to share my outstanding experience working with Shannon Mischler of Schooley Mitchell. We engaged Shannon to audit our waste disposal, phone, internet, software licenses, and facility supply expenses. What initially appealed to us was the no-risk opportunity to find savings, and we were more than happy to sign a service agreement.

As a realtor, property management company owner, and the founder of Skyline Recovery—a nonprofit organization that assists people in their transition to their full potential by offering safe housing and a supportive environment—reducing operating costs is paramount to my work. Shannon’s expertise and dedication to cost reduction played a crucial role in our success.

Shannon is a stellar client relations specialist who goes above and beyond to find cost reduction solutions. Her team’s innovative approach and meticulous analysis of our expenses allowed us to uncover savings we hadn’t even considered. I was thrilled when Shannon came back to me with a detailed report, revealing that Schooley Mitchell had identified savings in our waste disposal, phone, and internet services. This newfound budget flexibility will greatly benefit our organization.

Shannon’s unwavering commitment didn’t stop there. She continued to go the extra mile, conducting a thorough review of our software licenses and facility supply setup. Schooley Mitchell confirmed that these expenses were already fully optimized, providing us with confidence and peace of mind that our budget is allocated to what truly matters.

Overall, my experience with Shannon’s services was extremely positive. Shannon’s dedication, professionalism, and passion for her work ensure that clients receive top-notch service and meaningful savings. I highly recommend any business or organization utilize their services, as Shannon’s ability to go above and beyond is truly remarkable.

Sincerely,
Myles Mazzanti
Owner, Milestone Realty & Founder, Skyline Recovery
