Avoid the repair and showing decisions

A traditional sale can mean arranging repairs, finding contractors, preparing the house for showings, and deciding how to handle those costs. When you sell to us, you can skip that work: We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

You can tell us about the property as it stands. There is no need to line up contractors or a showing schedule before you ask about a direct sale.

Who can sign depends on the deed and court papers

If you own the house as tenants by the entireties, you both sign the sale papers while you're 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.

Your deed, divorce decree, and any court orders can affect who needs to sign. A title professional can review the sale papers with you.

Bring us the problem before everything is settled

You do not have to resolve every disagreement before talking with us. Tell us what is happening with the house, its condition, access, and timing. We can talk through the next steps with you.

What our sellers say

“After my mother passed, my brother and I inherited her house off Derry Street. Neither of us lives in Harrisburg anymore, and the thought of cleaning it out and making repairs before listing felt impossible. USA Home Buyers made us a fair offer and closed in 12 days. We didn't have to touch a thing.”
Sandra M.Inherited Property — Estate Sale
“I was four months behind on my mortgage and the notices were stacking up. I didn't even know I could sell and still come out with money. USA Home Buyers explained the whole thing, the offer was fair, and we closed before things got worse. Huge weight off my shoulders.”
James R.Behind on Payments — Pre-Foreclosure
“I had a tenant who stopped paying rent and refused to leave. I was paying the mortgage out of pocket for months. USA Home Buyers bought the property with the tenant still in it. That was the end of my landlord days. Done.”
Carol T.Rental Property — Problem Tenant
