What we do
We start by talking through the house and tenancy: who lives there, what the lease says, how access works, what repairs are needed, and what timing you have in mind. You do not need to settle every lease or possession question before calling.
You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone. Tell us about the property and tenancy.

What happens next
1. Discuss the house and tenancy
We discuss the Somerset address, the lease, who is living there, access, repairs, and the timing you are considering. Share what you know about rent, deposits, notices, and any possession plan.
2. Read the written offer and terms
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
Before you commit, we give you the offer and terms in writing. If you choose to go ahead, a title company handles closing.
3. Review the handoff and closing
If you decide to move forward, the title company handles the closing. The written terms show how the occupied property, possession expectations, and any security deposit are handled for this sale.
Local help for a Somerset rental
Rental and code contacts depend on the property’s municipality. The Borough of Somerset and Somerset Township are separate municipalities; use the Borough’s site for Borough properties.
Leases, notice, possession, and security deposits
You can sell with the tenant still living there. The sale does not by itself cancel the lease or set a move-out date; the lease and written closing terms still matter.
Pennsylvania Landlord and Tenant Act §501 — notice
You can sell with the tenant still living there, so you may not need to give notice at all. If you want the house empty first, the usual notice is 10 days for unpaid rent, and 15 or 30 days when a lease ends, depending on how long the lease is.
Pennsylvania Rule 517 — possession
An order for possession and its service are separate court steps. A notice alone is not an order for possession or an automatic move-out date. Do not change locks or remove occupants based on a notice.
How the security deposit is handled
At closing, the tenant’s security deposit is typically shown as a line on the settlement statement and transferred with the rental. Sometimes it is handled differently by agreement, and the written closing terms will show how.

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.”
Somerset tenant-occupied seller questions
Can I sell my Somerset house while the tenant is still living there?
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in the Borough of Somerset and throughout Somerset County, Pennsylvania, including houses with tenants in place. A sale does not by itself cancel the lease.

What notice applies if I want the house empty first?
Pennsylvania Landlord and Tenant Act §501 gives usual notice periods of 10 days for unpaid rent, or 15 or 30 days when a lease ends, depending on how long the lease is. You can sell with the tenant still living there, so you may not need to give notice at all.
Does a notice give me possession of the house?
