Selling a Home in Jessup — From Company Houses to Cash Offers
Jessup Borough was carved out of Archbald in the 1870s during the peak of the anthracite coal boom, and its housing stock still reflects that origin. The borough is densely packed with original miners' company houses — modest two-story frame homes built to house the workers who dug coal from the surrounding hillsides. These homes were functional, not luxurious, and after 150 years many of them need substantial updating.
For homeowners trying to sell a Jessup property on the traditional market, that age and condition creates serious obstacles. Lenders require homes to meet minimum habitability standards, and many Jessup properties fall short — outdated electric panels, deteriorating porches, settling stone foundations, and single-pane windows are the norm, not the exception. The result is a narrow buyer pool and extended time on market.
House Buying Solutions purchases Jessup homes exactly as they stand today. We know the borough's streets, its housing stock, and its market values — our headquarters is just minutes away in neighboring Archbald. Whether your property is on Church Street, Hill Street, or along the Olyphant border, we will give you a fair cash offer and close without requiring a single repair.
Jessup Borough was carved out of Archbald during the anthracite boom of the 1870s and retains a high density of original miners' company houses. Many of these modest homes need significant updating to sell on the traditional market — which is exactly why homeowners call us first for a no-hassle cash offer.

Why Jessup Homeowners Sell to Us
Buy Company Houses In Any Condition
Jessup's miners' company houses are over a century old and often need everything — wiring, plumbing, roofing, insulation. We purchase them without requiring any of those updates.
Minutes from Our Headquarters
Our office in Archbald is just down the road from Jessup. We can evaluate your property the same day you contact us — no scheduling weeks out with a distant investor.
No Minimum Value Restrictions
Some Jessup homes are valued below the thresholds that traditional lenders will finance. Our cash offers have no minimum — we buy properties at every price point.
Simplify Sales with Multiple Heirs
Mining-family homes often pass to several descendants. We work with multiple heirs, coordinate signatures, and handle the logistics so no one family member carries the burden.
Save Every Dollar of Commission
On a $55,000 Jessup home, a traditional 6% agent commission costs $3,300. Selling directly to us means that money stays in your pocket — significant in this price range.
Resolve Vacant Property Liability
Empty homes in Jessup attract code enforcement attention and lose insurance eligibility. A fast cash sale eliminates your exposure before problems escalate.

We Buy Jessup Houses, Any Situation
Whatever your circumstances — we have a solution. No judgment, no pressure.
Outdated Company House
Jessup's original miners' homes need $20,000-$40,000 in updates that most owners cannot justify. We buy them in their current state and handle all renovation after closing.
Inherited Property
Homes passed down from grandparents and great-grandparents who worked the Jessup mines. We close estate sales quickly, even with incomplete probate or out-of-state heirs.
Vacant Home Accumulating Costs
Empty Jessup properties still accrue taxes, insurance, and code enforcement risk. Selling to us stops the financial drain immediately.
Health or Mobility Issues
Elderly Jessup homeowners who can no longer navigate steep stairs and narrow layouts in old company houses. We make selling simple so they can transition to accessible housing.
Failed Listing
Jessup homes that sat on the MLS for months without offers because buyers couldn't secure financing. We buy what the market rejected.
We Buy All Types of Properties in Jessup
Miners' Company Houses
Jessup's defining housing type — two-story frame homes built in rows for coal workers in the 1870s-1900s. Most are 1,000-1,400 square feet with original stone foundations and narrow lots.
Updated Singles
Company houses that received partial modernization over the decades — vinyl siding, replacement windows, updated kitchens — but still carry original structural elements that concern lenders.
Duplexes & Converted Homes
Single-family miners' homes converted to two-unit rentals. Common in Jessup's denser blocks and frequently sold by landlords looking to exit.
Larger Corner-Lot Homes
Slightly more spacious homes at intersections that originally housed mine foremen or local merchants. These carry higher values but proportionally higher repair needs.
Brick Row Homes
A smaller inventory of brick-construction attached homes, more durable than frame but still carrying century-old plumbing and electrical systems.
Vacant & Condemned Properties
Structures that have been cited by the borough or are no longer habitable. We purchase these for their lot value and handle demolition or rehabilitation ourselves.

“My father's Jessup home had been in the family since my grandfather worked in the mines. The house needed a new roof, the furnace was from 1978, and the porch was collapsing. Three realtors told me to invest in repairs before listing. House Buying Solutions bought it as-is and I closed in eight days. Best call I ever made.”
Jessup — Inherited Miners' Home

“I had a vacant house on Hill Street that was becoming a problem — the borough was sending notices and my insurance dropped me. Jake's team from the Archbald office came over the same day I called, made a fair offer, and we closed before the next code hearing. They literally saved me thousands in fines.”
