Selling a house in Bucks County, PA

Bucks County lists boroughs and townships separately, so Bristol Borough and Bristol Township, for example, are different municipalities. If you were served a mortgage foreclosure, the county asks residents to call its diversion coordinator at (866) 760-8911 promptly. Confirm the municipality and sale type before planning any sale.

Separate municipalities, separate rules

The county's municipalities list shows Bristol Borough, Bristol Township and Bensalem Township as distinct places. Local permits, rental rules and resale requirements come from the municipality.
