Selling an older Scranton house

Scranton homes include two- and three-story late-1800s and early-1900s frame or brick houses with covered porches, as well as modest single-family homes built from the 1920s through the 1950s. With an older house, you may be weighing repair work against selling it as-is.

Sellers may refer to areas such as Green Ridge, Hill Section, Hyde Park, South Scranton, West Side, Minooka, and Downtown Scranton. Dunmore and Dickson City are nearby boroughs, separate from Scranton city.

The University of Scranton and Marywood University make student housing a local landlord consideration. If tenants are part of your sale, see the Scranton tenant-occupied home guide.

Scranton seller questions

Who can sign to sell an inherited house in Pennsylvania?

In most Pennsylvania estates, the person named to handle the estate—the executor—can sell the house without going to court under 20 Pa.C.S. §3351. If the will leaves the house to one specific person, that person signs too. “Letters testamentary” or “letters of administration” are papers from the Lackawanna County Register of Wills showing who can sign for the estate.
