Can I Sell My Chambersburg House With Code Violations?

We buy the house with its code violations
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You do not have to finish repairs before asking about an offer. We talk through the house and the notice with you so you can consider a sale without taking on the repairs first.
What can affect closing
Pennsylvania's Municipal Code and Ordinance Compliance Act usually allows a covered sale to close with code violations still open. If a municipality requires a code certificate, it must issue the certificate so the sale can close, and the buyer gets 12 months to correct the violations. The usual transfer process does not apply to property already under a court order or in a blight action. Read the Municipal Code and Ordinance Compliance Act, §§ 2, 2.1 and 3.
If an inspection is required before sale, the certificate depends on the violations. A temporary access certificate lets the buyer enter to make repairs; it does not let a new occupant move in.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
What happens next
We talk through the house and any code or permit notice you know about. If you want to consider selling, we put the offer and terms in writing before you decide whether to commit. If you choose to sell, closing takes place through a title company.
