About JBAS Realty

Founded by Scranton native John Basalyga, JBAS Realty has become the premier developer and manager of sought-after commercial and residential properties in Northeast Pennsylvania.

Our approach is simple yet ambitious: identify historic structures with "good bones," and reimagine them for the modern era without erasing their story. From luxury lofts in converted warehouses to state-of-the-art corporate centers, our portfolio stands as a testament to quality craftsmanship and visionary development.
