Sell your inherited Philadelphia house for cash — we buy direct
Inheriting a house often arrives with a long list of decisions: clearing personal property, handling out-of-state logistics, sometimes settling a deceased relative's estate. Selling directly to us for cash is usually faster and cleaner than listing on the open market — we buy inherited houses as-is, with no showings, no commissions, and no required repairs.
Lockwood Home Buyers makes cash offers directly to homeowners — no fees, no commissions, and no obligation to accept. We are not a real-estate agent or broker; we buy houses for cash.
How a Pennsylvania closing works
Pennsylvania closings run through title companies; cash closings in two to three weeks are routine.
Pennsylvania’s realty transfer tax is 1% to the state plus a local share — about 2% combined in most municipalities, and higher in Philadelphia, which has one of the highest combined rates in the country. It is commonly split buyer/seller but is negotiable.
