NAI Burns Scalo | January 7, 2026

NAI Burns Scalo, the largest privately owned commercial real estate firm in Western Pennsylvania, announced the opening of a new office in Morgantown, West Virginia, thus marking a strategic expansion into West Virginia based on its growing economy. 

NAI Burns Scalo has been working extensively across the state to provide commercial real estate brokerage, property management, construction, and real estate investment services. The new Morgantown office reflects the firm’s strong belief in West Virginia and the increasing demand for sophisticated, end-to-end real estate expertise driven by major institutional and healthcare investments. 

“West Virginia is experiencing significant economic momentum, as evidenced by economic growth along the I-79 corridor,” said Jim Scalo, CEO at NAI Burns Scalo. “Opening an office in Morgantown allows us to be closer to our clients and projects while delivering the full spectrum of services we offer. Our integrated model allows us to support complex, large-scale initiatives from concept through completion, and we see tremendous opportunity to expand.” 

NAI Burns Scalo has partnered closely with WVU Medicine, the state’s largest health system, supporting real estate strategy and execution as the organization expands its footprint. WVU Medicine’s continued investment in facilities, services, and communities has been a significant driver of regional growth and development. 

“WVU Medicine’s mission is to change the health trajectory of the communities we serve, and that work requires thoughtful, strategic investment in facilities and infrastructure,” said Albert L. Wright Jr., President and CEO of the WVU Health System. “NAI Burns Scalo has become a trusted partner in that effort, bringing deep expertise and a comprehensive approach to commercial real estate. Their decision to establish a Morgantown office speaks volumes about the confidence they have in West Virginia’s future and the economic progress happening across our state.” 

In addition, NAI Burns Scalo is currently representing listings and clients across the state, underscoring the firm’s growing involvement in West Virginia’s economic expansion. Other clients include North Central West Virginia Airport, EQT, and Hope Gas. Currently, the NAI Burns Scalo team is adding expertise and value to approximately twenty active pursuits in West Virginia.  

The Morgantown office positions NAI Burns Scalo to continue supporting healthcare, institutional, and commercial clients throughout the region while reinforcing West Virginia’s growing appeal as a destination for business expansion and investment.
