What the numbers mean
Your house has its own condition, costs, and timing
A median sale price summarizes completed sales for a stated place and period. A typical-home-value measure is modeled differently. Neither tells you what a particular Lewistown Borough house will sell for.
The repair list, cleanup, and condition of major systems can change what a buyer compares. Whether the house is vacant, owner-occupied, or rented can affect access and timing. We can compare an as-is sale with repairs, listing costs, and bills that continue while you wait.
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Our written terms give you something concrete to compare with the costs and work involved in listing.

What you may keep
Sale price and money left after costs are different numbers
Start with a realistic sale price or written offer. Then compare repairs and cleanout, mortgage payoff, listing commission if you list, other selling costs, and the bills you carry while waiting. Net proceeds are what remains after those costs—not the headline sale price.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

Lewistown market report questions
Does a Lewistown market figure tell me what my house is worth?
No. A market measure describes its named area and time period; it does not price one address. Condition, needed repairs, occupancy, and the timing and terms of a sale all affect the comparison.
What selling costs should I compare?
Repairs, payoff, listing commission if you list, and bills while waiting all affect what remains. Pennsylvania charges a 1% state realty transfer tax; a local transfer tax may also apply. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.
Can I sell a house that needs work or has tenants?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Whether the house is vacant, owner-occupied, or rented can still affect access and timing, so include those details in your comparison.
