What you keep, and which sale fits
Compare what you would keep after costs, not just the sale price. Repairs, selling costs, and the time you carry the house can change what remains; mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate amounts.
Use the calculator to compare a possible listing with a cash sale using assumptions you can change.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Questions King of Prussia sellers ask
How soon can I get an offer and close?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
Do I need to make repairs, clean, or empty the house?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
What do I keep after selling?
The sale price is not the amount you keep. Compare it with repairs, selling costs, and amounts due, such as your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes. The net-proceeds calculator lets you compare a possible listing with a cash sale using your own assumptions.
What costs do I pay when I sell to you?
No fees. No agent commissions when you sell to us. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.
How does Pennsylvania transfer tax affect my sale?
Pennsylvania charges a 1% state realty-transfer tax on taxable transfers. Local transfer tax may also apply and can vary by municipality and school district. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax.
Who can sign for an estate sale?
In most Pennsylvania estates, the executor can sell the house without going to court (20 Pa.C.S. § 3351). If the will leaves the house to one specific person, that person signs too. If the executor is not authorized to sell under Pennsylvania law or the will, the executor can ask the county Orphans' Court for permission under 20 Pa.C.S. § 3353. We work with executors and estates regularly. You can sell in the estate's name once the estate is opened — no need to put the house in your own name first. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one, and we'll help make sure the sale fits the legal process correctly.
Can I sell with a tenant living in the house?
You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone.
Can I sell before a Pennsylvania sheriff sale?
Pennsylvania mortgage foreclosure is a court case, and a judgment can lead to a sheriff's sale. Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. It doesn't always work, but it works more often than people think.
What if the house has liens or back taxes?
You don't need to pay off your back taxes before we settle. We buy houses with back taxes and liens — payoffs get handled through the closing, not by you upfront. Those amounts affect what you keep; your share of current property taxes is separate.
You can call before everything is figured out
Start with the address and what is worrying you. You do not need every paper in hand to ask a question. Not sure? Call us — we'll sort it out with you. Call 888-274-5006.

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.”
“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.”
“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.”
