Sell your vacant Pittsburgh house for cash — we buy direct
Vacant houses get more expensive every month: utilities, taxes, insurance, and the slow deterioration of an unoccupied building. We buy vacant houses and know how to assess and price condition issues quickly — there's no listing season, no showings, no need to make it presentable before closing.
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.
