Smaller East Penn borough that the national franchises overlook — which usually means Alburtis sellers get fewer offers and worse prices. Late-1800s railroad-era stock with slate roofs is our specialty here.

Mike on a Alburtis property walkthrough
Alburtis Borough is a quieter East Penn community on the western edge of Lehigh County. Housing stock skews older — late 1800s and early 1900s singles and twins from the railroad and slate-quarry eras — with newer subdivisions in the surrounding Longswamp and Lower Macungie townships. The East Penn School District is the property-value driver. Smaller boroughs like Alburtis often go ignored by larger national cash-buying franchises, which usually means sellers here get fewer offers and worse prices. We're local and we know the market.
Inspector-owned, serving the Lehigh Valley since 2010 — including small boroughs others ignore.

PA Licensed Home Inspector
Other cash buyers guess at your home's value, then drop their price at closing when they find issues. Mike sees the real picture from day one—so his offer stays the same.
I started buying homes in Allentown in 2010 because I kept seeing families get lowballed after the third-party home inspection. Getting my InterNACHI certification was the obvious answer — it's the only way I could give a price I'd actually stand behind.
Mike's 5.0-star reputation spans both his inspection practice and ABE Homes — same person, same standard.

Sub-Markets
Each Alburtis neighborhood has its own housing-stock era, character, and distress pattern. We price every property to its specific sub-market — not a city-wide average.
The walkable historic core. Densely-built late-1800s singles and twins on small lots — most still original. Borough hosts an annual fall festival on Main Street that draws East Penn families.
What we see most often
Estate sales from longtime German-descent families. Many homes have been in single families since the slate-quarry era; heirs are often out of state and don't want to manage repairs.
Just outside the borough — larger lots, mix of older farmhouses and newer ranches. Same East Penn schools but rural feel.
What we see most often
Older property estates with deferred maintenance, plus occasional divorce sales in newer subdivisions.
We're not a national franchise — we're local Lehigh Valley investors who've been buying homes since 2010.

What We See
These are the most common scenarios we encounter in Alburtis. If yours sounds familiar, we've handled it before.
Alburtis Borough has been a stable East Penn community since the slate-quarry era. Estate sales of homes in single families for 60+ years are our most common scenario — often with original slate roofs, knob-and-tube wiring, and deferred maintenance heirs don't want to handle.
Many estate sellers we work with from Alburtis live in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, NJ, or NY. We coordinate with the Lehigh County Register of Wills and the title company so heirs don't need to travel for closing.
Whatever your circumstances, we're here to help. No judgment, just solutions that work for you.

Life Events
Pennsylvania inheritance tax is owed by the heir, not the estate, and is due within 9 months of death (5% discount if paid in 3). Use this to estimate before talking to your estate attorney.

This estimate assumes the home is the only inherited asset. Real estate is taxed on the date-of-death fair market value. If you sell within a few months of inheriting, our cash offer typically equals the market value Pennsylvania uses to assess the tax.

The Inspector Difference
Other cash buyers offer high to lock you in, then send a third-party home inspector to find ‘issues’ and lower the price at closing. Mike IS the InterNACHI Certified Home Inspector. His walkthrough IS the inspection. The first price is the closing price.
