Pennsylvania's standard purchase process applies

As elsewhere in Pennsylvania, Hershey purchase contracts typically include inspection, financing, and appraisal contingencies. Confirm current specific timelines with a PA-licensed agent.

Confirm current, specific pricing given the disclosed spread

Given the real, wide spread across cited 2026 sources ($391,872-$502,000), buyers should confirm current, specific listing and sale data directly rather than relying on one figure.

Confirm the complete combined EIT rate directly

This record did not independently isolate Derry Township School District's own EIT share, if any, beyond the township's combined 1% figure -- confirm the current, complete combined rate directly for a target address.
