The simpler way out

You don't have to fix it up, clean it out, or list it

Inheriting a house usually lands in the middle of everything else — grief, paperwork, family logistics. The last thing most heirs want is a months-long listing process: cleaning out decades of belongings, paying for repairs on a house they never planned to own, and covering taxes, insurance and utilities while it sits on the market.

We buy inherited houses across greater Pittsburgh exactly as they sit — furniture, contents and all. You get a fair, no-obligation cash offer within 24–48 hours of reaching out, and the closing follows your timeline, whether the estate is still in probate or long settled.

  • No cleanout — leave furniture and belongings behind
  • No repairs, updates or inspections to pass
  • No realtor commissions, hidden fees or closing costs for you
  • Flexible closing that works around probate timing

Common questions

Asked by families in your situation

Can I sell an inherited house before probate is finished?

In many cases, yes — a sale can move forward while probate is still open, handled by the estate's personal representative. Every estate is different, so we coordinate with your attorney or the personal representative to time the closing correctly. We are not a law firm, and for legal advice about your estate you should speak with your attorney.

Do I need to clean out the house first?

No. Take the belongings that matter to you and leave the rest — furniture, appliances, contents, all of it. We buy the property as-is and handle the cleanout after closing.

Does Pennsylvania charge inheritance tax?

In most cases, yes — Pennsylvania is one of the few states with an inheritance tax, and the rate depends on your relationship to the person who passed away. Transfers between spouses are exempt. Rates and rules change, so confirm the details with your accountant or estate attorney before deciding how to divide proceeds.

What if there are multiple heirs?

That is common, and we are used to it. We make one clear written offer, work with everyone involved (or through the estate's representative), and keep the numbers transparent so the family can make one decision together.

What if I live out of state?

Most of the process can be handled remotely — photos, a quick walkthrough arranged around you, e-signatures and a remote closing. You do not need to fly back to Pittsburgh to sell.
