Most “we buy houses” companies can offer you one thing — a cash offer, almost certainly below market. As a licensed agent with 20 years of experience, I walk you through every option and tell you honestly which one serves you best.
Close in as few as 7 days. No showings, no repairs, no contingencies. Your home goes in front of thousands of investors simultaneously — they compete, you get a real number, not a single lowball.
List on the open market as-is — no repairs, no staging. In competitive markets, as-is listings attract multiple offers and often produce more than a single cash offer.

Missing mortgage payments in Franklin County starts a legal process that unfolds in stages — and most of those stages include built-in windows for intervention. The first formal one is the Act 91 Notice: before your lender can file a foreclosure complaint in Franklin County Court of Common Pleas, they must send this written notice and wait a minimum of 30 days. This isn't just bureaucratic process — it triggers specific protections and options that Pennsylvania law requires your lender to honor.
PAHAF (Pennsylvania Homeowner Assistance Fund), administered through PHFA, provides mortgage reinstatement assistance for eligible homeowners who've experienced qualifying hardship. Applications are submitted online at phfa.org. If your goal is to keep the house, applying for PAHAF during the Act 91 window is the right first move. Simultaneously, contact your lender's loss mitigation department — servicers are required to consider alternatives to foreclosure, including loan modification and repayment plans.
If your goal is to sell — because the hardship is ongoing, the property no longer fits your situation, or you simply want a clean exit — the Act 91 window is also the right time to start that conversation. A cash sale can close in two to four weeks, pay off the mortgage in full at closing, and hand you whatever equity remains above the payoff amount. That outcome is dramatically better for your credit and finances than a completed sheriff's sale.
Franklin County's military-connected population should understand SCRA protections. Servicemembers Civil Relief Act can affect foreclosure proceedings on a primary residence while the servicemember is on active duty — potentially providing additional time or protection beyond the standard Pennsylvania process. If SCRA applies to your situation, consult a JAG attorney or military legal assistance before taking any action.
The conciliation conference — a mandatory court-supervised negotiation meeting before any foreclosure judgment — is another formal intervention point. Coming to that conference with a pending cash sale contract gives you maximum leverage to achieve a consensual resolution that protects both your credit and your equity.
