The holidays are winding down, and in just a few days, the ball will drop on a brand-new year.
But for many Pittsburgh homeowners, January 1st doesn’t feel like a celebration. If you are struggling with back taxes, municipal liens, or the threat of a tax sale, the New Year feels like a looming deadline.
Right now, you are in the final 72-hour window of 2025. This is your last chance to make a decision that ensures your tax debt stays in the past, rather than following you into the future.
The “New Year Tax Trap”
Why is the December 31st deadline so critical? For distressed sellers, waiting until “next year” often comes with a steep price tag:
- A New Year of Liability: On January 1st, a new tax cycle begins. If you still own the property, you are legally signing up for another year of property taxes, interest, and potential penalties.
- The Interest Snowball: In Allegheny County, delinquent tax interest and penalties don’t take a holiday. Every month you wait, your payoff amount grows, eating away at whatever equity you have left in the house.
- The Auction Clock: Tax sales and judicial sales are scheduled well in advance. Every day you wait is a day closer to losing the property to the county for nothing.
How We Solve the Tax Burden (While You Relax)
At Eminel Buys Houses Fast (Boss Lady Investment Group), we specialize in the “messy” financial situations that make traditional buyers run away. You don’t need to have the cash to pay your taxes to sell to us.
- We Pay the Taxes at Closing: You don’t have to write a check to the county. We settle your entire tax debt directly out of the sale proceeds at the closing table.
- We Buy “As-Is”: Don’t spend your final days of the year scrubbing floors or fixing leaks. We want the house exactly as it sits—junk, repairs, and all.
- Speed is Our Superpower: Because we use our own cash, we don’t have to wait for bank approvals or long inspections. We can move fast enough to beat the year-end deadlines.

Imagine waking up on New Year’s Day knowing that the “Intent to Foreclose” letters have stopped, the tax man is no longer calling, and you have a check in your hand to start your next chapter.
