Legacy Realty Partners

What Legacy Realty Partners does

Legacy Realty Partners is a boutique commercial real estate brokerage firm founded in 2024 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, operating exclusively in the retail real estate sector. The firm is led by Herky Pollock, who spent over 30 years at CBRE (including founding its Pittsburgh office) and assembled a six-person team with 90+ combined years of local market experience. Its service portfolio comprises three core lines: Landlord Representation (leasing vacant retail space on behalf of property owners), Tenant Representation (site selection and lease negotiation for retailers entering or expanding in Pittsburgh), and Investment Sales (commercial property disposition). Operations are run from the Union Trust Building in Downtown Pittsburgh at 501 Grant Street, Suite 1025.

The firm has no proprietary technology platform; it relies on industry-standard CRM systems, digital marketing tools, and its own property listings portal (properties.legacyrealtypgh.com). Its distribution is built around direct broker-to-client engagement, the personal brand of its principals, and an affiliation with X Team Retail Advisors, a national network of retail CRE specialists that provides referral reciprocity across markets. Marketing channels include organic social (notably Herky Pollock's LinkedIn presence), the company website, earned media through Pittsburgh Business Times, and industry events via NAIOP and ULI Pittsburgh.

Revenue is generated entirely through transaction-based commissions on completed leases and sales, with fees negotiated per deal rather than through published rate cards or recurring retainers. The client base spans more than 30 named enterprise and mid-market logos across restaurant chains (Raising Cane's, CAVA, Olive Garden, LongHorn, Kura Sushi, Chuy's), retail (Ross Dress for Less, Carter's/OshKosh, Restoration Hardware, Burlington, Five Below, Target, Whole Foods), healthcare (Affordable Care, VEG), banking (Citizens Bank), coworking (COhatch), and entertainment (Urban Air, Ace Pickleball Club). The firm is privately held with no disclosed institutional ownership.
