deedplatPennsylvania
Two counties, every parcel
Deedplat covers Allegheny and Washington counties completely, rather than the whole country thinly. Owners, debts, sales and the public lists that move property, on one map.
How Pennsylvania works
Property data is public here, including sale prices. Distressed property reaches the market through a few channels, and they differ by county.
Tax sales
Most counties, Washington included, run upset, judicial and repository sales through a Tax Claim Bureau. Allegheny County and Philadelphia don't. There, unpaid taxes end at the sheriff.
Sheriff sales
Every county sells foreclosed property at a sheriff sale. In Allegheny County it's monthly, and cases are often postponed many times first.
Conservatorship
Under Act 135, a court can hand a vacant, blighted building to a conservator who fixes it up. That's a way into buildings whose owners have walked away.
Public land
Land banks and redevelopment authorities hold property they want back in use, and sell it by application rather than auction.
Transfer tax
Every sale pays 1% to the state, plus a local share set by the town and school district. That's usually another 1%, but it's 4% in Pittsburgh, so it changes the math deal by deal.
Town rules
Many boroughs require a resale inspection or rental registration. We're adding which towns require what, so it doesn't surprise you at closing.

Buy the county and you get every town in it. Pay yearly and get two months free.
