Local Roots

Founded in 1957 by Jack B. Piatt, Millcraft began as a recognized leader in industrial fabrication and steel manufacturing. In the 1970’s, the company parted from the steel industry and began focusing 100% of its efforts toward commercial real estate. Millcraft has since become a recognized leader throughout Western Pennsylvania for its development and redevelopment of properties. Following the success of the residential developments,Millcraft began looking at residential brokerages to align its services with. In 2017, Lucas Piatt, President and then COO of Millcraft, launched Piatt Sotheby’s International Realty with the goal of bringing top-notch service, unparalleled marketing, and global reach to both Pittsburgh and the surrounding areas, providing our clients with luxury service at every price point.

Giving Back

Piatt Sotheby’s International Realty has valued giving back to the community since its inception. Through the Piatt Family Foundation, the company has raised money for a variety of causes through Rock, Reggae, and Relief, an annual reggae festival held downtown on Forbes Avenue.

Mission & Vision

Our mission as a company is to be the best, not the biggest.

A company whose reputation is measured by the quality of its service, not by the quantity of its sales. One who is known for excellence and integrity, and where each person who plays any role is engaged in a commitment to be exceptional, doing business at a level of quality that stands out in the marketplace.

Recognized worldwide, the prestige of the Sotheby’s brand is unparalleled. Yet, while Sotheby’s is recognized as a luxury brand, at Piatt Sotheby’s International Realty the “luxury” is about the level of service we provide to every client and for every home at every price point. We believe that everyone deserves the world’s best marketing, service, and professionalism.
