From Levittown homes built in the 1950s to older twins in Bristol Borough and farmhouses up near Quakertown, Bucks County has a lot of houses that are showing their age. If yours needs more work than you want to take on, or you just need to sell without the usual hassle, a direct cash sale may be worth a look.
As Is Home Buyers is a local company based at 1110 Pine St in Philadelphia that buys houses in the condition they’re in. Here’s how it works in Bucks County, and how to tell whether it’s a good fit.
Bucks County areas we buy in
We look at houses throughout the county, including:
- Lower Bucks: Levittown, Bristol, Croydon, Bensalem, Fairless Hills, Morrisville, Langhorne, and Penndel
- Central Bucks: Doylestown, Warminster, Warrington, Chalfont, and Ivyland
- Upper Southampton and Feasterville-Trevose: split-levels and ranchers that need updating
- Newtown and Yardley areas: older homes, estates, and downsizing sales
- Upper Bucks: Quakertown, Perkasie, Sellersville, and surrounding townships, including homes on well and septic
Houses in any condition
You don’t need to make repairs or clean before selling to us. Common situations include:
- Original 1950s and ’60s systems, old wiring, and aging roofs
- Wet basements, cracked slabs, and drainage problems
- Septic systems that need repair or replacement
- Houses full of belongings after a family member passes
- Rentals that have taken a beating
Whatever the condition, we price it in so you don’t have to deal with it.
How it works
- Get in touch. Call (215) 515-0702 or fill out the form with your address.
- We take a look. A short walkthrough at your convenience. No staging, no cleaning.
- Written cash offer. No obligation. Compare it with other options if you’d like.
- You choose the closing date. A title company handles settlement. We don’t charge commissions, and your offer will show in writing which closing costs we cover.
Two more ways we can help:
- We can assist with relocation and moving.
- We can sometimes advance part of the cash before closing.
More detail is on our How It Works page.
Is selling as-is the right choice?
It depends on your house and your priorities. If the home is updated and you have time, listing it may bring a higher price, and we’ll tell you so. Selling directly to us usually makes sense when:
- Repairs would cost more than you want to spend, or more than you’d get back
- You need a firm closing date because of a move, a new job, or a family change
- You’ve inherited the house and want a simple sale for the estate
- You’d rather skip showings, inspections, and back-and-forth repair requests
- You’re a landlord ready to step away from a rental
You give up some price in exchange for speed and simplicity. We’ll make that trade-off clear so you can decide what’s right.
Bucks County details to keep in mind
- Estates and probate: Estates in Bucks County are opened through the Register of Wills in Doylestown. Our guide to selling an inherited house in Pennsylvania covers the basics.
- Municipal resale requirements: A number of Bucks County municipalities require a resale certificate or inspection, and some have sewer or septic requirements. We’ll help you find out what applies.
- Transfer tax: Pennsylvania’s realty transfer tax applies to most sales, and the local share varies. Your settlement statement will show how it’s handled.
- Liens or back taxes: These are typically paid from the proceeds at closing and don’t have to stop a sale.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you buy a house with a failing septic system?
Yes. We buy homes with septic and well issues in Upper and Central Bucks. We factor the needed work into our offer so you don’t have to arrange it.
Do I have to be there for the walkthrough?
It helps, but it isn’t required. If you live out of the area, we can work with a family member, neighbor, or agent who can let us in, or start from photos.
How long does the whole process take?
With clear title, we can often close in as little as a couple of weeks, or on your timeline. Estates, liens, or municipal requirements can add time. You pick the date.
Is there any cost to get an offer?
No. The offer is free and there’s no obligation to accept it.
