Local Expertise
House Buying Solutions buys houses in Clarks Summit for cash. We're Lackawanna County cash buyers with an office in Archbald, and we bought a Clarks Summit home in August 2026. It's listed further down this page with everything else we've bought in Lackawanna County, by town and month. If you need to sell your Clarks Summit home fast, we'll make a cash offer on it as-is.
A Clarks Summit mailing address covers more than the borough. Newton Township's own municipal building has one. We buy houses in the borough, Clarks Green, South Abington, Newton and Glenburn, and for all of them the county offices are in Scranton and the schools are Abington Heights. What changes from one municipality to the next is who sends the sewer and trash bills.
A sale to us starts with one walkthrough. Thomas goes through your Clarks Summit home with you, and a cash offer follows, usually within 24 hours. If you take it, a local title company handles the paperwork and pays off anything owed. We can close in 7 days or sooner when you need it, or on a later date that fits your move.
Need time after closing? Renee and Stan, whose video is on this page, stayed two weeks after their sale closed. The move-out date is written into the agreement, so it's settled before closing day.

Our Work
The Clarks Summit house we bought as-is in August 2026, three more Lackawanna County projects, then our recent purchases across the county. Clarks Summit is first in the list.


We bought this Clarks Summit ranch house as-is in August 2026. These photos show it as we bought it: the outside, and the kitchen with its older cabinets and wallpaper.


We bought this Dickson City double as-is in 2022 and finished the work in April 2023. This is its living room before and after: new flooring, paint and a new stair rail.

The county line, the offices in Scranton, transfer tax and the borough's own bills.
Lackawanna County, 18411
The 18411 ZIP code reaches past the borough line: Newton Township's municipal building has a Clarks Summit address. We buy houses in the borough, Clarks Green, South Abington, Newton and Glenburn, and the county offices are the same for all of them.
County offices in Scranton
The Register of Wills (5th floor) and the Tax Claim Bureau (2nd floor) are both at 123 Wyoming Ave. Probates are by appointment only. An executor needs letters from the Register of Wills before the estate can sell.
2% of the price
1% goes to the state and 1% to the municipality and the Abington Heights School District. Buyer and seller usually split it.
Billed by the borough
Clarks Summit Borough bills sewer and trash itself, and the Abington Regional Wastewater Authority treats the sewage. Anything still owed on those bills is paid out of the sale at closing.

Common Questions
Straight answers for homeowners in Clarks Summit who want to understand speed, pricing, repairs, and what happens before closing.
Yes. We buy houses in Clarks Summit for cash, and we buy Clarks Summit homes as-is, updated or not. Our deal record lists a Clarks Summit purchase that closed in August 2026, and it's on this page with everything else we've bought in Lackawanna County, by town and month.
Not for selling to us. We buy houses in the borough, Clarks Green, South Abington, Newton and Glenburn, and the county offices in Scranton are the same for all of them. Your municipality decides who bills sewer and trash, and anything still owed is paid out of the sale at closing.
Most sellers have a cash offer within 24 hours of the walkthrough. We can close in 7 days or sooner when you need it, and our fastest closing took one day. Title work sets the pace: a clean title closes fastest, and estates and liens take longer. You can also pick a later date that fits your move.
Yes, when it's written into the agreement. Renee and Stan, whose video is on this page, stayed two weeks after their sale closed. We set the move-out date before closing, and our rent-back guide explains how the agreement works.
No repairs and no cleaning. We buy your home as-is, and you can leave what you don't want. We price the work into the cash offer and do it after closing.
No commissions, and we pay the standard closing costs. Pennsylvania's transfer tax is 2% of the price in Clarks Summit, 1% to the state and 1% local, and buyer and seller usually split it.
We start from what the house will sell for once it's fixed up, using closed sales nearby, then subtract the repairs and the costs of buying, holding and reselling it. Our guide to how we calculate a cash offer walks through the math.
Public review excerpts verified on the House Buying Solutions Google profile.
“Selling felt less scary because [Thomas] kept us in the loop at every single stage, always making sure we felt heard and calm about all the paperwork and closing logistics. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the thought of selling, I can't recommend them enough.”
