How fast can I really sell my house in Pittsburgh?
With a cash buyer, most Pittsburgh home sales close in 14-21 days from first contact. In straightforward cases with a clean title, we’ve closed in as few as 7 days. The timeline depends on how quickly we can complete the title search and whether any title issues need to be resolved. Compared to the 60-90+ day average for a traditional MLS listing, a cash sale is dramatically faster.
Do I have to make any repairs before selling?
No. We buy Pittsburgh homes in any condition — fire damage, water damage, structural issues, outdated systems, full of personal property. You take what you want and leave the rest. We handle everything after closing.
How is the cash offer calculated?
We look at what the home would sell for after repairs (the after-repair value), estimate what repairs would cost, and factor in our holding and transaction costs. The result is a number that works for our business while giving you a fast, certain close. We can walk you through our thinking when we present the offer.
Will I have to pay any fees or commissions?
No agent commissions. No listing fees. Standard closing costs apply (title insurance, transfer taxes, recording fees) — the same costs you’d pay in any home sale in Pennsylvania. We’re transparent about what you’ll net at closing before you sign anything.
What if my house has liens or back taxes?
Liens don’t automatically kill a cash sale. We do a title search that identifies any outstanding liens, and in most cases they’re paid off from the sale proceeds at closing — you don’t need to come up with cash upfront. Tax delinquency, mechanic’s liens, old mortgages — we’ve dealt with all of it in Allegheny County and surrounding areas.
Can I sell if I’m behind on my mortgage or facing foreclosure?
Yes, and the sooner the better. Pennsylvania’s judicial foreclosure process gives homeowners time to act, but that window closes. A cash sale can close in 14-21 days — fast enough to stop most foreclosure timelines if you contact us early. The mortgage payoff, including arrears, is handled at closing from the sale proceeds.
What areas do you buy in?
We buy throughout the Pittsburgh metropolitan area — all of Allegheny County, plus Washington County, Beaver County, Butler County, Westmoreland County, and Armstrong County. If it’s within an hour of Pittsburgh, contact us.
