Who Owns and Runs Pezon Properties
Pezon Properties is a family-owned business founded by Mat Pezon, a Lehigh Valley local who spent 12 years as a chemical engineer before transitioning to full-time real estate investing in 2014. Mat isn't a developer who parachuted in from outside the area. He grew up here, he invests here, and he still runs the business from here.
His background is a little different from most cash buyers you'll come across. He completed a Master's in International Management at IE Business School in Madrid as a Fulbright Scholar, which shapes how he thinks about running a business. Methodical. Numbers-driven. Accountable. That approach carries through to how Pezon Properties evaluates homes and makes offers.
Mat built the team around people with hands-on experience in construction, property management and real estate investing throughout Lehigh County. That mix matters because it means the offer you receive is based on actual knowledge of local property values and real repair costs, not a formula plugged into a spreadsheet.
When you contact Pezon Properties, you're talking to people who are directly involved in buying and running these properties. Mat and his team answer their own phones, visit homes themselves and make decisions on the spot. There's no call center, no middleman and no runaround.
The reason the business exists at all comes down to a straightforward observation: too many Allentown homeowners facing tough situations, whether that's a property needing major repairs, a timeline that doesn't work with a traditional listing, or just the need for certainty, didn't have a good option. Pezon Properties is that option.
Our Team's Background in Real Estate
Our team brings decades of combined experience to every home purchase. We did not just wake up one day and decide to buy houses. We earned our expertise through years of hard work and learning.
Several team members started as general contractors. They spent years renovating homes, fixing foundations, updating kitchens, and repairing roofs. This hands-on experience is priceless. When we walk through your home, we see what others might miss. We know the difference between surface issues and serious problems. We can estimate repair costs with accuracy.
Other team members come from property management backgrounds. They have managed rental properties across
Hanover Township and the Lehigh Valley. They understand what makes a property valuable to future buyers or renters. This knowledge helps us make competitive offers.
We also have team members who studied business and finance. They handle the numbers side of our operations. They make sure every transaction is fair for everyone involved. They ensure we close on time, every time.
Together, we have purchased hundreds of homes throughout Pennsylvania. We have seen just about every situation you can imagine. Inherited properties that need major work. Houses facing foreclosure. Homes damaged by storms or floods. Properties owned by people who need to relocate quickly for work.
Each situation taught us something new. We use those lessons to serve you better.
We invest in ongoing education, too. Real estate laws change. Market conditions shift. Tax rules get updated. We stay current on everything that affects home sales in Pennsylvania. We attend workshops, take courses, and network with other professionals. This commitment to learning means you get the most up-to-date advice and service.
Our local knowledge sets us apart from national home-buying companies. We know Allentown's neighborhoods personally. We understand which areas are growing and which face challenges. We recognize how school districts, public transportation, and local development affect property values.
Why We Choose to Work and Live in Allentown
Allentown is not just where we work. It is where we live. It is home.
We chose to focus our business here because we love this city. Allentown has a rich history. It has faced economic challenges and come back stronger. The community spirit here is something special.
Many members of our team grew up in the Lehigh Valley. We went to the local schools. We played in local parks in
Pine Grove. Our families have roots here going back generations. When we buy a house in Allentown, we are investing in our own community's future.
The city has changed a lot over the years. Downtown Allentown has seen amazing revitalization. New businesses are opening. Young families are moving to historic neighborhoods. The arts and culture scene keeps growing.
But we also see the challenges. Some homeowners struggle with aging properties that they cannot afford to update. Others face financial hardships through no fault of their own. Life happens. Job loss, divorce, medical bills, or family emergencies can make it impossible to maintain a home.
We started Pezon Properties to help our neighbors during these difficult times. When you work with a local company, you get personal service. You get people who understand the local market. You get honest communication.
We are proud to be part of Allentown's business community. We support local charities and community events. We hire local contractors when we renovate properties. We believe in keeping money and jobs in our area.
Living here also keeps us accountable. Our reputation matters because this is our home too. We see clients at the grocery store or at community events. We want every person we work with to feel good about their decision to sell to us.
Allentown's diversity is another reason we love it here. Our team reflects that diversity. We speak multiple languages. We understand different cultural perspectives on homeownership and property sales. We treat every client with respect for their unique situation and background.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who actually comes to my house when I request an offer from Pezon Properties?
A member of our core team will visit your property in person. This is usually one of our experienced buyers or property evaluators who lives right here in the Allentown area. You will never meet with a subcontractor or third party. The person who visits your home has the authority to make decisions and answer your questions on the spot. They will treat your property respectfully, wear shoe covers if you prefer, and complete the walkthrough in about 20 to 30 minutes.
Does Pezon Properties Allentown only buy certain types of homes?
No, we buy all types of residential properties in any condition. This includes single-family houses, duplexes, townhomes, and condos. We purchase homes that need major repairs, have code violations, fire or water damage, hoarding situations, or estate sale properties. We also buy homes in great condition when sellers simply need a fast, guaranteed sale. Location within the greater Allentown area does not matter either. Whether your property is in the center city, the West End, or surrounding neighborhoods, we make fair offers.
How does working with a local company like Pezon Properties differ from working with national home buyers?
Local companies like ours offer personal service and accountability that national corporations cannot match. We live in Allentown, so our reputation in the community matters deeply to us. We understand local property values, neighborhood trends, and zoning rules that affect your home's worth. We also close at local title companies you can verify and trust. When you call us, you talk to decision-makers, not call center staff in another state. Plus, the money we pay for your home stays in the local economy, supporting other Allentown businesses and families.
