property transfers

What Are the Requirements? 

Before a home is occupied, transferred or sold within the Borough of Mount Penn, there are two property transfer inspections required for all properties being sold.

1. (U&O) Use and Occupancy 
2. (I & I) Inflow and Infiltration

Below are the two steps necessary to proceed with a property transfer:

1. Complete the Property Transfer Form (download below) - this form will generate the two inspections above. This form must be completed by the applicant and returned along with the required fees. The completed form can then be uploaded using the Form Submission feature below, or emailed to propertyregistrations@mtpennborough.com, or printed and dropped off at our borough office. 
2. Payment for Required Fees - payment is due with the form, scheduling inspections will not be made without payment. We accept online payments (below) or payment by check (payable to the Borough of Mount Penn). 

Please note that any application that is received less than 30 days of transfer will have an additional fee.
