Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I sell my house in Philadelphia as-is without making repairs?
Yes! We buy houses in any condition — whether the home is outdated, damaged, cluttered, or needs major repairs. You don’t need to fix anything, clean anything, or prepare the home before selling.
Will you still buy my house if it has tenants living in it?
Possibly. Sometimes, we buy occupied rental properties, even if the tenants are behind on rent, uncooperative, or living month-to-month. Give us a call to see if we can get you a cash offer.
Can you buy my house if I’m facing foreclosure in Pennsylvania?
Absolutely. Our fast process helps many homeowners stop or avoid foreclosure. As long as the home hasn’t been sold at auction, you can still reach out.
What if my property has liens, judgments, or unpaid taxes?
We can still buy your house. Our team works with local title companies to resolve or pay off many types of liens during the closing process.
Do you only buy houses in Philadelphia, or do you buy in nearby suburbs too?
We buy homes throughout Philadelphia and the surrounding PA areas, including Montgomery, Delaware, Chester, and Bucks counties.
How quickly can you close after I accept your offer?
We can close in as fast as 7 days, or on a later date that works better for your schedule. You choose the closing timeline.
Do I need a real estate agent to sell my home to you?
No agent is needed. You sell directly to us, which means no commissions, no listings, and no showings.
How do you handle homes with major structural or water damage?
We buy houses with fire damage, water damage, mold, foundation issues, roof problems, and more. No damage is too severe for us to evaluate.
Will you still buy my home if it’s part of an estate or probate?
Yes. We work with heirs, attorneys, and executors to make the probate sale process smooth and stress-free.
What if my home has code violations?
Not a problem. We buy properties with city violations, stop-work orders, and other compliance issues.
Can you buy my home if I’m going through a divorce?
Yes. We help many couples sell quickly so they can divide assets and move forward. We offer private, flexible solutions for complicated situations.
Do you buy condos, townhomes, and multi-family buildings too?
Yes. We make cash offers for condos, duplexes, triplexes, townhouses, and small multi-family properties throughout Philadelphia.
What makes selling to We Buy Houses Philadelphia different from listing with a realtor?
There are no showings, repairs, fees, or long waiting periods. You get a fast cash offer and close on your timeline without the headaches of the traditional market.
How do I know your offer is fair?
We base our offer on the home’s as-is condition, neighborhood values, and current market trends. We explain how we arrive at the number so the process feels clear and honest.
