Can We Sell Our Greensburg House During a Divorce?
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
Yes. We can talk about selling before every disagreement is settled. USA Home Buyers buys houses in Greensburg and Westmoreland County. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. The deed, any court order, and the signatures required for the property still matter before the sale can close.

Skip repairs, contractors, and buyer showings
A divorce can make it hard to coordinate a repair list, choose contractors, or agree on a showing schedule. With a direct sale to us, you do not have to prepare the house for public showings or arrange repairs and cleanout before selling.

Who can sign for the Greensburg house?
The deed and any court order determine whose signatures the title company needs. If you own the house as tenants by the entireties, you both sign the sale papers while you are married. After divorce, Pennsylvania law (23 Pa.C.S. §3507) generally treats that former entireties property as equal one-half shares unless a court order under that chapter provides otherwise. A title professional or attorney can review how the deed, decree, and recorded liens apply to your sale.
Bring us the problem before you agree on everything

What happens next
1. Tell us about the house
Share the Greensburg address, what condition it is in, who has access, and any timing or paperwork questions you already know about. Start with what you know.
2. Review the written offer
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
3. Confirm the documents and closing details
The title company checks the deed, recorded liens, payoff information, required signatures, and closing documents. An attorney can explain how a divorce decree or court order applies to your specific situation.
Signing from another location
You can sign separately; we can send a notary to each of you. Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.
4. Review the settlement figures
Pennsylvania charges a 1% state realty-transfer tax when a house changes hands, and local tax may also apply. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. That does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes. See the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue transfer-tax guidance.

Do we need to repair or clean the house first?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
