With the Register of Wills for the county that was the owner's last home; for a Carbon County resident, that's the Register of Wills & Clerk of Orphans' Court at 4 Broadway in Jim Thorpe. One part of an estate sale is simpler: Pennsylvania's seller disclosure law doesn't apply when the executor or administrator sells while settling the estate, though federal lead-paint disclosure rules still cover most homes built before 1978.

Yes; second homes are common there. If the house is in a planned community with an owners' association, Pennsylvania law generally requires you to give the buyer the declaration, bylaws and rules plus a resale certificate showing dues and any unpaid assessments. The association must supply it within 10 days of your request, and the buyer can back out until 5 days after receiving it or until closing, whichever comes first, so ask early.

It's worth checking before you sell. Parts of the Southern and Eastern Middle anthracite fields reach into Carbon County on DCNR's coal map, and DEP's online risk map lets you look up an address. Because standard homeowner policies usually exclude mine subsidence, DEP offers separate Mine Subsidence Insurance, but a buyer can't take over the seller's policy and has to apply for their own.
