The simpler way out

Every month it sits, it costs you

A vacant house is never free. Taxes, insurance — which typically costs more for a vacant property, if your insurer will cover it at all — utilities, lawn and code compliance all keep running, while the building itself quietly deteriorates. Empty homes also attract the wrong attention: vandalism, break-ins, squatters and municipal notices.

We buy vacant properties across greater Pittsburgh in exactly the condition they're in — boarded, dated, damaged or simply empty for years. You get a fair cash offer within 24–48 hours and close on your timeline, turning a monthly liability into a closed file.

The carrying costs a cash sale ends

  • Property taxes and municipal charges that never pause
  • Vacant-property insurance premiums — or the risk of none
  • Utilities, lawn care and winterization
  • Vandalism, break-in and squatter risk
  • Code violation notices and municipal fines
  • The slow deterioration every empty building goes through

Common questions

Asked by families in your situation

The house has been empty for years. Will you still buy it?

Yes — long-vacant properties are a large share of what we buy. Condition, contents and how long it's been empty don't disqualify it; we price the house as it sits today.

There are code violations or municipal notices on the property. Is that a problem?

No — violations and notices are common on vacant homes and are factored into the offer rather than treated as blockers. Municipal claims against the property are typically settled from the proceeds at closing.

What if someone has been squatting in the property?

Tell us what you know and we'll evaluate it. Occupancy issues are handled after closing — you don't need to resolve them yourself to sell.

Do I need to clean or secure the house before you see it?

No. Don't spend a dollar or a weekend on it — we evaluate the property exactly as it is, boarded windows and all.
