The Home Inspector Advantage

Other Buyers Guess.
Mike Knows.

Traditional cash buyers make an offer, then send a home inspector later to find reasons to pay you less. Mike IS the home inspector. His walkthrough IS the inspection. Your offer is fair from day one — no "revised" lowball later.

The structural difference

The other Lehigh Valley cash buyers — Pezon, ClearEdge, iBuyLehigh, We Buy Ugly Houses — are investors or wholesalers. None of them are InterNACHI-certified home inspectors. ABE is the only one. That's why our offer doesn't change between contract and closing.

Selling a House in Bath: What to Expect

InterNACHI Certified Inspector

Mike on a Bath property walkthrough

Bath Borough's 2020 Census population was 2,693, making it one of the smaller boroughs in Northampton County. The borough sits ~10 minutes north of Bethlehem along Route 248 and is served by the Northampton Area School District. Most calls we get here are estate sales from longtime Bath families — older borough housing stock with original mechanicals, often from out-of-state heirs who don't want to manage repairs or cleanouts. The borough's central location between Bethlehem (south) and the slate belt (north) means distress patterns include both Bethlehem-commuter scenarios and Northampton-County aging-in-place transitions.

Why We're Different

The Only Cash Buyer
Who IS The 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

Mike's 5.0-star reputation spans both his inspection practice and ABE Homes — same person, same standard.

Sub-Markets

Bath Neighborhood Profiles

Each Bath 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.

Bath Borough core (Main / Northampton St)

The borough's historic spine. 19th-century Federal-style singles and Victorian twins along Main Street and Northampton Street, with some pre-Civil-War stock near the Monocacy Creek crossing. Walkable to the historic Bath Hotel building, the Bath Drug Co (continuous operation since 1898), and the borough park. Highest density in the borough.

What we see most often

Multi-generation estate sales from families who've owned Bath properties 60-100+ years. Heirs commonly out-of-state (NJ, NY, FL, CA typical). 19th-century housing means original wood-lath plaster, knob-and-tube wiring, sometimes lead supply lines. Mike's inspector training prices these accurately rather than ghosting.

Pre-WWI working stock (south borough)

Smaller worker singles and twins built in the 1900s-1920s for Bath's then-active stoneware industry and Northampton-area cement-industry employees. Tighter lots; smaller footprints; original asbestos shingle siding common (non-friable, code-compliant). Distinct neighborhood identity within the borough.

What we see most often

Estate sales from third-generation working-class families; some small-landlord exits (1-2 unit properties). Original mechanicals universal; cleanouts typical.

Route 248 corridor (commuter zone)

The commercial-residential commuter corridor connecting Bath to Bethlehem (south, ~10 min) and Nazareth (east, ~7 min). Mid-century ranches, split-levels, and 1970s-80s singles. Updated mechanicals more common. Some commercial-corridor mixed-use.

What we see most often

Bethlehem / Allentown / NJ commuter-relocation sales. Periodic turnover from corporate transfers. Mid-tier of the borough's market; less distressed than the core but with steady volume.

East Allen / Moore Township border (rural transition)

Transition zone from borough to surrounding Northampton County townships. Mix of older borough-edge stock and post-WWII rural-edge singles. Some farmstead conversions; larger lots. The Northampton Area School District continues into the townships.

What we see most often

Aging-in-place from original 1950s-70s buyers; some farmstead-estate scenarios with land plus dwelling. Heirs typically out of state.

What We See

Why Bath Sellers Call Us

These are the most common scenarios we encounter in Bath. If yours sounds familiar, we've handled it before.

Multi-generation borough estate sales

Heirs of multi-generation Bath households (60-100+ year ownership) selling 19th-century housing stock. Out-of-state heirs routine (NJ, NY, FL, CA typical); accumulated multi-generation contents typical. Letters Testamentary issued at the Northampton County Register of Wills in Easton unlock the executor's right to sell.

Bethlehem-corridor commuter relocations

Bath-based commuters relocating for Bethlehem-area employment changes or corporate transfers. Mid-century stock along the Route 248 corridor sees periodic turnover. Less distress than estate cases; cleaner timelines.

Tax-delinquency Upset-Sale scenarios

Properties with 2+ years tax delinquency facing Northampton County Upset Sale. Mike's team handles closings mid-process when sellers want to exit before Sale dates. Back taxes paid from proceeds at closing; lien certificates handled by title.

Farmstead-conversion estate sales

Properties on the borough's rural-township edge (East Allen, Moore) where original farmsteads have been subdivided into the present-day borough fabric. Sometimes inheritances include both a dwelling and adjacent acreage with separate parcel-level considerations.

What you'll actually take home after PA inheritance tax

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.

Our Guarantee

The No-Nonsense Promise

We built our reputation on doing business the right way. Here is what you can expect when you contact us.

We won't sell your number

We hate spam too. Your phone number is safe with us — we will never sell it, share it, or use it to harass you. One conversation, at your pace.

We won't post a “Sold” sign

Your situation stays between us. No 'Sold' signs posted, no neighbor gossip, no public marketing tied to your property. Discretion is standard — not an upgrade.

We won't run a countdown timer on you

Take the offer or leave it. We are here to help, not to run countdown timers or call you five times a day. If the numbers don't work for you, no hard feelings.

We won't charge you a single fee

What we offer is what you get. We pay all closing costs, title fees, and transfer taxes — both sides. The number we put in writing is the number that hits your account.

The Inspector Difference

We won't lower your price at closing

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.

Pennsylvania-Specific Timelines That Affect Bath Sellers

We work within the actual legal timelines of Northampton and the PA courts — not generic national playbooks.

Foreclosure: ~6 Months

PA is a judicial-foreclosure state. The full timeline from first missed payment to sheriff sale runs about 6 months. Act 6 / Act 91 notices mark the early stages — call us before the sheriff date.

Foreclosure help

Probate: 6–12 Months

PA probate runs 6–12 months in Northampton. The executor can usually sell without all heirs' signatures. Inheritance tax: 0% direct heirs, 12% siblings, 15% others.

Inherited property help

Divorce: Equitable Distribution

PA uses equitable distribution (not 50/50). A clean cash sale removes the asset-valuation argument and locks in your timeline regardless of court schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Bath homeowners about selling to us.

Bath-specific. PA-law accurate. Updated for 2026.

Do you buy in Bath specifically?

Yes. Bath Borough sits ~10 minutes north of Bethlehem in Northampton County, ~20 minutes from Easton. We treat Bath as its own market — it's not a Bethlehem suburb and doesn't price like one. Most calls here are estate sales from longtime Bath families plus the occasional commuter-relocation. Older borough housing stock with original mechanicals; Mike walks each one honestly.

Do you serve the Northampton Area School District?

Yes. Northampton Area School District covers Bath Borough, Northampton Borough, Moore Township, Chapman Borough, East Allen Township, and Allen Township — all standard service area. We treat the entire district consistently; comparable-sale analysis honors the district boundary versus the adjacent Bethlehem Area District (south) and Wilson Area District (east).

My grandparents owned a Bath house their whole lives. They've passed. What now?

Multi-generation Bath estate sales are the most common call we get here. Bath is in Northampton County for probate — Letters Testamentary issued at the Northampton County Register of Wills (669 Washington St, Easton, (610) 829-6488). Once Letters issue, the executor can sell without all heirs' signatures. We've worked with heirs in NJ, NY, CA, FL — remote closings with mobile notary. PA inheritance tax (4.5% direct descendant, 12% sibling, 15% other) settled at closing from sale proceeds. Multi-generation accumulation is fine; no broom-clean requirement.

The house has decades of stuff in it. Cleaning it out feels impossible. Does that matter?

No. We buy in any condition including 'house full of stuff.' Multi-generation Bath households commonly stay in single families for 50-80 years; the accumulated contents reflect that. Take what's meaningful — heirlooms, photos, irreplaceable items. Everything else: leave it. We handle disposal after closing. No broom-clean clause, no surprise deductions for clean-up costs.

Bath property has tax delinquency. How does Northampton County handle this?

Northampton County runs an annual Upset Tax Sale (typically September) and a subsequent Judicial Sale (typically following year). Properties with 2+ years of delinquency hit the Upset Sale list. Real Estate Tax Sale Law of 1947 (72 P.S. § 5860.101) governs the process. We've closed many properties mid-process — title gets cleared, back taxes paid from sale proceeds at closing. If you have an Upset Sale date approaching, we move faster; documents and offers can move in days, not weeks.

Do you buy along Route 248 / mid-century stock too?

Yes. The Route 248 corridor (Bethlehem ↔ Nazareth) runs through Bath and has mid-century ranches and split-levels from the 1950s-1980s in addition to the pre-WWII borough core. Both types are standard service area. Mike inspects each one accurately; condition is priced honestly regardless of era.

Closing time?

7 days from signed contract. Northampton County recording in Easton. We've gone faster (5 days) for sellers facing Upset Sale or sheriff sale dates. Possession can extend post-close if needed.

Any fees?

Zero. No commissions, no closing costs, no service fees. Back taxes, code violations, municipal liens, and PA inheritance tax paid from sale proceeds. The offer is the net cash you receive.

Selling a Bath home in any of these situations? We cover all five.

The Only Cash Buyer
Who IS The 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.
