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.”
Scranton neighborhoods and places: seller questions
Do I need to repair or clean out a Scranton house before selling to you?
No. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
I rent out a house near the University of Scranton or Marywood University. Where can I read about selling?
Both universities are part of Scranton’s local student-housing and landlord-exit context. The tenant-occupied house page covers that situation, and we can talk with you about the property and its current occupancy.
