What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”

What It Actually Costs to Sell a House in Pennsylvania — and the New Law Every Seller Should Know
Pennsylvania charges a realty transfer tax on nearly every sale, and where the house sits changes the bill dramatically. The state takes 1% everywhere. Most Pennsylvania municipalities add a combined 1% for the local government and school district, for a 2% total. The City of Pittsburgh is another story: 1% state + 3% city + 1% Pittsburgh School District = 5% — among the highest transfer taxes in the state. On a $100,000 sale, that is $5,000 in the city versus $2,000 in most suburbs. The tax is customarily split 50/50 between buyer and seller, but it is negotiable — a cash buyer can agree to cover it as part of the offer. Rates change by ordinance, so verify your municipality's current rate before closing.
Pennsylvania's Real Estate Seller Disclosure Law (68 Pa.C.S. § 7301 and following) requires most residential sellers to give the buyer a written disclosure of known material defects before an agreement of sale is signed. Selling as-is does not erase this duty — as-is means the buyer accepts the condition, not that you may hide what you know. Certain transfers are exempt, including most sales by estate fiduciaries and court-ordered sales. With an investor buyer the disclosure is painless: the buyer expects problems, prices them in, and asks for no repairs — so disclose everything honestly and let the offer reflect reality.
Since January 4, 2025, Pennsylvania also regulates real estate wholesaling. Act 52 of 2024 — the Wholesale Real Estate Transaction Transparency and Protection Act, signed July 8, 2024 — targets operators who sign a purchase agreement with a homeowner and then sell or assign that contract to someone else for a fee. Under the act, wholesalers must be licensed, must make written disclosures to the seller, and sellers gain protections including cancellation rights. The law exists because homeowners were signing contracts with buyers who never intended to buy — middlemen shopping the contract around, and walking away when no end buyer materialized.
EasyOffer is a direct buyer, not a wholesaler. When EasyOffer makes an offer, EasyOffer is the purchaser: the company signs the agreement of sale as the buyer, purchases as principal with its own funds, and takes title at closing. You deal with the buyer directly from offer to closing. EasyOffer is not a real estate brokerage, is not acting as your agent, and is not a law firm — it is the party on the other side of the table, buying your house. Whoever you sell to, ask the question Act 52 was written for: are you buying this house yourself, or reselling my contract? A direct buyer will put the answer in writing.
The rest of the cost picture depends on how you sell. A traditional listing typically means an agent commissions (often around 5–6% combined, though commissions are negotiable and buyer-agent fees are now set separately), repairs or credits after inspections, months of carrying costs while the house sits, and buyer financing that can fall through at the end. A direct cash sale trades the open-market price ceiling for certainty: no commission, no repairs, no showings, and a closing date measured in weeks. For questions about your specific legal or tax situation, talk to a Pennsylvania attorney or tax professional — a house buyer cannot give you legal advice.
How much is the transfer tax when selling a house in Pittsburgh?
Inside the City of Pittsburgh the combined realty transfer tax is 5% of the sale price — 1% state, 3% city, and 1% Pittsburgh School District. That is $5,000 on a $100,000 sale. Most municipalities outside the city total 2% (1% state plus 1% local/school). The tax is customarily split between buyer and seller but is fully negotiable — a cash buyer can agree to pay it. Confirm your municipality's current rate, since rates change by ordinance.
Do I still have to fill out a disclosure form if I sell as-is?
Generally yes. Pennsylvania's Seller Disclosure Law requires most residential sellers to disclose known material defects in writing, and an as-is sale does not remove that duty — it just means the buyer accepts the condition without asking for repairs. Some transfers are exempt, such as most sales by an estate's executor or administrator. With an investor buyer, honest disclosure costs you nothing: the offer already assumes the house has problems.
What is Pennsylvania's new wholesaling law, and how do I know I am dealing with a real buyer?
Act 52 of 2024, the Wholesale Real Estate Transaction Transparency and Protection Act (effective January 4, 2025), requires wholesalers — people who sign a contract on your house intending to sell or assign that contract to someone else — to be licensed, make written disclosures, and honor seller cancellation rights. The simplest protection: ask any buyer, in writing, whether they are purchasing the property themselves as principal or assigning the contract. You deal with the buyer directly from offer to closing.
Does selling to a cash buyer save me the agent commission?
Yes — a direct sale has no listing agreement and no commission, which on a typical listing runs 5-6% of the price. You also skip repair negotiations, showings, and financing contingencies. The trade-off is that a cash offer is usually below the top of the open-market price, in exchange for speed and certainty. Compare your net proceeds under both paths, not just the headline price.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does selling a house as-is actually mean?
Selling as-is means you are not making any repairs or improvements before the sale. The buyer accepts the property in its current condition, including any defects, damage, or deferred maintenance.
Do I still need to disclose problems if I sell as-is in PA?
Yes. In Pennsylvania, sellers are typically still required to disclose known material defects. Selling as-is does not remove your disclosure obligations, but it does mean you are not responsible for fixing anything.

Our offer reflects the current condition and avoids the costs you would spend on repairs, agent commissions, and months of carrying costs. Many sellers net more after factoring in those savings.

Any condition. Damaged roofs, mold, foundation problems, fire damage, water damage, outdated systems, hoarder situations, code violations — we have seen it all and we buy it all.

Yes. Leave whatever you do not want. We handle all cleanout and disposal after closing at no cost to you.
