What we buy
You can ask us to buy the house without first repairing the items listed in a code notice. We buy the property as-is, so you do not have to repair, clean, or clear it out to sell to us. Tell us what the notice says and what condition the house is in; we will consider both in the offer.
What can affect closing
Pennsylvania’s Municipal Code and Ordinance Compliance Act gives you a way to sell when an inspection identifies code violations. For a sale covered by the Act, the municipality issues a certificate—a written record of the listed violations—and the buyer has up to 12 months to correct them. The exception is a property already under a court order or in a formal action because it is considered blighted.
If an inspection is required, 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. Read the notice and certificate for the property, and have a title company review any related lien or court record. Read Pennsylvania’s Municipal Code and Ordinance Compliance Act, §§ 2, 2.1 and 3.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers
Here's what sellers across Pennsylvania have said about working with us.
“I ran a restaurant near campus that closed during COVID. Never fully recovered. The lender filed in Centre County court and I realized I had equity I was about to lose. USA Home Buyers explained the Pennsylvania foreclosure timeline, gave me a written offer the next morning, and we closed in twelve days. The case was dismissed. I came out with $47,000.”
“Twelve years of renting to Penn State students was enough. I had good tenants and bad tenants, and honestly the good ones still left every May and I'd spend the summer chasing the next lease. I just wanted out. USA Home Buyers bought the property with the tenant still in place and I was done in two weeks.”
“The divorce decree in Centre County required the house sold. We'd both been on the mortgage for seven years and neither of us could buy out the other on a single income. USA Home Buyers gave us a written offer both our attorneys approved. Closed in ten days. The proceeds let both of us move on.”
Questions about selling with code violations
Can I sell a Huntingdon house with code violations?
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Huntingdon Borough and throughout Huntingdon County. Pennsylvania’s Municipal Code and Ordinance Compliance Act gives a path for covered sales with listed violations, subject to the court-order and blight-action exception.
Do the violations disappear when I sell?
Not automatically. For a sale covered by the Pennsylvania certificate process, the buyer gets up to 12 months to correct listed violations. An existing court order or blight action is an exception. A temporary access certificate allows the buyer to enter for repairs; it does not allow a new occupant to move in.
What should I share about the notice?
Tell us the property address and what the notice says. Include any inspection or permit information, deadlines, court papers, or related lien notice so we can discuss the house and the records that still need to be checked.
What happens after I ask for an offer?
We talk through the house and the notice, then provide a written offer and written terms before you commit. If you decide to sell to us, closing is through a title company.
