We buy houses in Virginia Beach, VA

Sell your house fast in Virginia Beach, VA, for cash and as-is.

Virginia Beach is home to more than 456,000 people, and some of their houses will never sell the usual way. We buy them for cash, as-is, from Kempsville and Great Neck to Pungo, Sandbridge and the Oceanfront.

Maybe it's a ranch with a wet crawl space, a rental near the Oceanfront you're tired of managing, or a house you have to leave before your orders change. Send us the address and you'll have a cash number within 24 hours. You don't fix anything, clean anything or pay an agent.

Owner-occupied homes

About two out of three homes here are lived in by their owners, and the rest are rentals, which is a lot of landlords in a city this size. The typical house was built around 1984, so many of them are at the age where the roof, the HVAC and the water heater all want replacing. Those are the repairs that hold up a normal sale and don't matter to us.

The kinds of Virginia Beach houses we buy

Most of the houses we look at in Virginia Beach are brick and vinyl ranches and two-story colonials from the 1970s through the 1990s, plus older cottages near the Oceanfront and in Bayside. The older ones tend to need the same work: a wet crawl space, a tired roof, original windows, an old heat pump. Houses near the water add flood history and the wear that salt air does to siding, decks and HVAC.

We buy all of it, and condition only changes the price, not whether we'll make an offer. That includes ranches, colonials, townhomes, duplexes, and houses that have sat empty since the last tenant or owner left.

We buy Virginia Beach houses in any condition

Leave the cleanup, the repairs and anything you don't want to us. We took these photos on real walkthroughs, and this is the condition we buy houses in.

The Virginia Beach situations we buy in

Flooding and wet crawl spaces

Low ground, tidal creeks and heavy rain mean a lot of Virginia Beach houses have seen water. A flood zone letter or a mold smell in the crawl space can end a normal sale in a day. We look at the house as it is and price the repair into our offer.

Orders and military moves

With Oceana, Dam Neck and Little Creek close by, plenty of owners get orders on short notice. If you have to be somewhere else in six weeks, we can close in 30 days or less, or on the date your move needs, without a showing schedule or an open house.

The rental you're done with

Between long-term tenants and the Oceanfront summer rental market, Virginia Beach has plenty of tired landlords. If a tenant stopped paying, the place needs work between leases or the season was slower than you planned, we buy rentals with tenants still living there and work out a plan for them with you.

Behind on the mortgage

In Virginia, most foreclosures never go through a courtroom. The lender's trustee advertises the sale and holds it on their own. If you're behind, call early. Selling before the sale date pays off the lender at closing and stops the sale.

A house you inherited

If the house came to you from a parent and you live in another state, you don't have to clean it out, fix it up or list it. We can make an offer now and close once the estate paperwork lets you sign.

Storm and wind damage

Nor'easters and hurricane seasons leave behind torn roofs, soaked drywall and downed fences. You don't have to wait on a contractor or finish a claim first. We make an offer on the house as it stands.

How selling for cash works in Virginia Beach

Here is how a cash sale works in Virginia Beach. You call or send the form, we look at the house and send a cash offer within 24 hours, and if you say yes, a local title company handles the closing. You pick the date. We close in 30 days or less, or later if your move needs it.

If you're behind on your mortgage, timing matters more. Most Virginia foreclosures don't go through a judge. The trustee named in your deed of trust runs the sale. If you live in the house, the lender has to mail you a notice by certified or registered mail at least 60 days before the sale. The trustee also has to advertise the sale in a local newspaper, and it can't happen sooner than 8 days after the first ad.

Once the ads start, the clock is short. If we buy the house before the sale, the lender is paid off at closing and the sale is cancelled. The earlier you reach out, the more room there is to make that work.

How it works

Three steps to a cash sale.

1

Tell us about the house

Call us or fill out the short form. Give us the address and tell us about the condition of the house and your situation. That is enough to start.

2

Get your cash offer

We review the house and send you a fair cash offer within 24 hours. You'll see how we got to the number, and you're under no obligation to take it.

3

Close on your date

You pick the closing date. Closing in 30 days or less is possible, and a later date is fine if you need more time. A title company handles the paperwork and you walk away with cash.

In September 2026, 1,125 houses were listed in Virginia Beach city, VA, up 31% compared with last year. Half were priced above $487,000 and half below, and the typical house had been listed for 37 days. About 1 in 5 sellers lowered the price they were asking that month.

Those 37 days measure time after the listing starts. Before that, repairs and cleanup can take weeks. Afterward, the buyer's lender may need about a month to finish closing. Listing may bring you the highest price if the house is updated and you have time to wait. A cash sale lets you skip that wait when the property needs repairs, is tenant occupied, or you need to sell sooner. Ask us for a cash price to compare with a listing.

Run the numbers on a Virginia Beach sale

Expect a cash price below what you would ask when listing the house. A buyer who promises otherwise is preparing to lower the offer after you commit.

Start with what you would keep from the sale. In Virginia Beach, the median home value is about $382,500. At that price, a six percent commission takes $22,950, with repair bills still to come. Count the repairs the buyer asks for after the inspection. Add months of mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance and utilities while you wait to sell. Then compare what is left with our cash price.

Listing can still leave you with more money. When it does, listing is the right choice. We want to tell you that upfront so you do not sell to us and later regret taking the house off the market.

What sellers say about working with Mal

"Malachi saved us from losing everything. We closed in 9 days and walked away with cash in hand. He was honest the whole way through — no pressure, no games."
D. Williams, Baltimore County, MD
"I was three months behind and didn't know what to do. Memorable Home Buyers explained everything clearly and made a fair offer the same day I called. Highly recommend."
T. Jackson, Prince George's County, MD
"Malachi was a pleasure to work with. We inherited a home that we could not pay the repairs on. He gave us a fair price, and closed exactly when he said he would. Was a quick, easy and very convenient process."
Kourtney Wright, Google review
"I had only 8 days left to stop my foreclosure. Malachi came in and showed me what options I had left, and once we agreed on me selling he purchased the home and was able to prevent that stuff on my record. I appreciate him for helping us."
Margaret, Florida
"Me and my husband had a property we just didn't want to deal with anymore. It had leaks in the roof, needed a new water heater and a bunch of other stuff we didn't have the energy to fix anymore. Mal gave us a fair cash offer and made our downsizing process simple"
Melissa, Texas

Our promise to you

Four things you can count on when you sell to us

Mal is your contact throughout the sale, from your first call through closing. We make these four promises for every house we buy.

The number holds

Your settlement statement will show the price we agreed to if the property is as you described it by phone. If we find a major issue during the walkthrough that you had not mentioned, we explain the difference to you before proceeding.

A contract you can read

We use plain English in our purchase agreement. Bring it home for your family to read. Before signing, ask us to explain any part you have questions about.

You pick the date

On our first call, let us know when you need to close. If that date will not work for us, we tell you during that call. You will know before making a commitment.

An honest answer, even when it costs us the sale

We tell you when selling through an agent would bring you more money. A cash sale does not suit everyone. We want you to hear that from us.

Whatever's going on with your Virginia Beach house, we can help.

Owners sell for many different reasons. If the house has become more trouble than it is worth, tell us. We won't judge, and you don't have to sell.

Virginia Beach sellers ask us these

Straight answers, no sales pitch.

Yes. Water problems are common here, from a wet crawl space to a house that took on water in a storm. We factor the repair into the offer and buy the house as it is, so you never deal with a restoration company.
We can close in 30 days or less once you accept the offer, and sooner when a deadline calls for it. If you need more time to move, pick a later date.
Often, yes, if there's enough time. A lender has to mail you notice at least 60 days before the sale on a home you live in. Selling before the sale date pays off the lender at closing and cancels the sale. Call as soon as a notice arrives.
Yes. You don't need to wait for a lease to end or evict anyone. We buy with tenants in place and work out a plan for them with you.
All of it, including the Oceanfront, Kempsville, Great Neck, Pungo, Sandbridge, Bayside, Lynnhaven and Princess Anne.
Yes. Tell us the date you have to be gone and we'll build the closing around it. You don't need to list the house first.
No. There are no commissions, no closing costs and no fees. You walk away with the price we agree on, minus anything owed to your lender.
