Our Story
From Local Real Estate to Leading Property Management
Harvey Goodman Property Management has deep roots in the Ohio Valley real estate market, with a legacy built on trust, growth, and community service spanning decades.
Founded as a family‑owned real estate business, Harvey Goodman Realtor expanded from a single office into a multi‑office real estate firm serving Ohio and West Virginia. Today, the company is widely recognized as a top real estate brokerage and property management provider in the region, known for delivering outstanding service, deep local expertise, and strong market leadership.
Growing in the Ohio Valley
Since its early beginnings, Harvey Goodman Realtor steadily expanded its presence with offices throughout the Ohio Valley, including multiple locations in both Ohio and West Virginia. Over the years, the company has earned the trust of homebuyers, sellers, landlords, and tenants alike — consistently being recognized for excellence and voted “Best of the Best” by local Ohio Valley supporters.
Launch of the Property Management Division
In 2015, Harvey Goodman Realtor launched its dedicated Property Management Division, known today as Harvey Goodman Property Management. Founded by Emily Goodman Shortall, granddaughter of company founder Harvey Goodman, this division was created to provide professional, full‑service rental property management for residential and commercial owners across the region.
This strategic expansion brought specialized property management services to the Ohio Valley market — supporting property owners with effective tenant placement, rent collection, maintenance oversight, and investment growth strategies.
Built on Experience and Local Commitment
Harvey Goodman’s long history in real estate and development helped shape the company’s approach to property management. The team combines decades of industry experience with deep knowledge of local rental markets in St. Clairsville, Wheeling, Martins Ferry, Steubenville, and beyond — delivering personalized, results‑driven management services that protect client investments and support tenant needs.
A Legacy of Growth and Service
From its origin as a small real estate office to its evolution into a trusted name in residential and commercial property services, Harvey Rentals stands strong as part of a multi‑generational business grounded in community, integrity, and service excellence.
