We buy houses in Scranton
Built for how Scranton homes really sell.
Scranton was built during the anthracite coal boom, and its neighborhoods are full of the housing that came with it - side-by-side half-doubles, frame duplexes, and worker homes raised between the 1860s and the 1930s. Many sit on rubble-stone or unreinforced block foundations, and parts of the South Side, Minooka, and North Scranton lie over old mine workings where subsidence is a documented risk. Add northeastern Pennsylvania winters that push on aging roofs and heating systems, and a lot of these homes are hard to list in show-ready shape.
Nobu Holdings buys Scranton homes in whatever condition the coal era and the winters left them. A half-double in West Scranton, an inherited house in Green Ridge, a rental in the Hill Section - we write one cash offer with the comps shown and buy it as-is. You make no repairs, hold no showings, and pay no commissions or fees. We cover standard closing costs, and with no mortgage involved we can close in as little as 14 days.

Local questions
Selling a house in Scranton - questions we hear
Do you buy Scranton houses with mine subsidence or foundation issues?
Yes. Settling, cracked walls, and mine-subsidence concerns come with a lot of Scranton's coal-era housing, and none of it stops us. We buy the home as-is, price the condition into our offer, and you never have to carry subsidence coverage or repair a failing foundation before you sell.
Does Scranton require a city inspection before I can sell my house?
Scranton does not require a point-of-sale occupancy inspection to sell an owner-occupied home, though rentals need an annual license and inspection. If you are selling a licensed or unlicensed rental, we buy it with the tenants in place and take over the rental-ordinance obligations at closing.
Can I sell if I owe back taxes to Lackawanna County?
Yes. Lackawanna County holds its upset sale each September for properties two or more years delinquent, and unsold ones move on to a judicial sale. A cash closing lets you pay the balance out of the proceeds and clear the debt before your property reaches either sale.
Do you buy inherited or probate homes in Scranton?
Yes. Inherited half-doubles and single homes are common here. If the estate is still open with the Lackawanna County Register of Wills, our title company coordinates with the executor to confirm authority and clear title, and we close on the estate's schedule with no repairs required of you.
