Lewisburg, PA seller help · Divorce sale
Can we sell our Lewisburg 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. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Lewisburg Borough and Union County, Pennsylvania. You can ask about a cash offer and talk through the property before every disagreement is settled.
Call 888-274-5006 or use the form to tell us what is happening.

Avoid repairs, contractors, and showings
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
A direct sale means you do not have to coordinate repair work, contractor visits, or showings with each other before asking about an offer. You can start with the house as it is and the practical problem you are facing.
Who can sign depends on the deed and any court order
The deed and any applicable court orders matter. If spouses own the house as tenants by the entireties, a form of joint ownership for married spouses, both sign the sale papers while they are married. After divorce, Pennsylvania law generally treats that former entireties property as equal one-half shares unless a court order under 23 Pa.C.S. §3507 provides otherwise.
A title professional can review how the deed, divorce decree, and recorded liens apply to a sale. An attorney can explain what a specific decree or court order means. You can talk with us before you have every answer.

What happens next
1. Tell us about the house
Share the Lewisburg address and what you know about the condition, who has access, and any documents or timing concerns. Start with what you know; you do not have to settle each disagreement first.
2. Review a written offer and terms
We discuss the house and the sale path. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
3. Check ownership and closing documents
The title company reviews the deed, recorded ownership, required signatures, payoffs, liens, and documents needed for closing. An attorney can explain the legal effect of a divorce agreement or court order for your situation.
4. Review settlement figures
We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Pennsylvania's realty transfer tax is included in our transfer-tax promise: When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. Mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
5. Sign separately if needed
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.

Pennsylvania ownership after divorce
Read 23 Pa.C.S. §3507, the Pennsylvania rule about how entireties ownership is treated after divorce. The deed and any court order still matter for a specific sale.
Pennsylvania realty transfer tax
The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue explains the state realty transfer tax. The transfer-tax and closing-cost promises above apply when you sell to us; your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
