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.

Skip the repairs, contractor coordination, 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 line up repair work, coordinate contractors, prepare the house for public showings, or negotiate over who handles those tasks before asking about an offer. You can tell us about the property as it stands.
Who can sign depends on the deed and any court orders
The deed shows how the home is owned. The decree and any applicable court orders can also affect the sale. If the house is owned as tenants by the entireties— a form of joint ownership for married spouses — both spouses sign the sale papers while they are married.
After divorce, Pennsylvania law under 23 Pa.C.S. §3507 generally treats former entireties property as equal one-half shares unless a court order under that chapter provides otherwise. A title professional or Pennsylvania attorney can review how the deed, decree, and recorded liens apply to your sale.
There is not one answer for every house. You can start a conversation before that review is finished; the actual ownership documents and orders still determine who can sign for this property.
Bring us the problem before every disagreement is settled
If you are stuck on repairs, access, showings, timing, or how to talk about the house, tell us what is happening. You do not have to resolve every practical question before we discuss a sale.

Pittsburgh and Allegheny County records
Pittsburgh is in Allegheny County, but the city, county, and metropolitan area are different geographies. A Pittsburgh mailing address alone does not establish the municipality or district. Check the property's parcel record for those details.

The county recording office handles recorded land documents. It is in the County Office Building, Room 101, 542 Forbes Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15219. Call 412-350-4636, option 2.

Pennsylvania ownership rule after divorce: 23 Pa.C.S. §3507

Compare what you might keep
A sale price is not the same as what is left after a mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, and other costs. Use your own assumptions to compare possible sale paths for the house.
