Sell my house fast in Newport News
From the East End to Lee Hall, we buy houses all over Newport News.
Newport News runs more than 20 miles up the Peninsula along the James River, and most of it grew up around the shipyard. The older streets in the Southeast Community, North End and Hilton Village were built for shipyard workers in the early 1900s. The brick ranches and split-levels in Warwick, Hidenwood and Denbigh came after the war, and Kiln Creek and Lee Hall filled in later. Plenty of these houses have been rentals for years or have passed down through a family. We buy them as they are, whether that means an old roof, original wiring, a house full of belongings, or a seller who has to be gone by a certain date.
- Offer within 24 hours
- Close in as little as 7 days
- No fees or commissions

Local situations
What Newport News sellers call us about
Inherited houses
A lot of Newport News houses have been in one family since the shipyard years. When a parent passes, the heirs often live somewhere else and the house needs work. We buy inherited houses as-is, and you can leave behind anything you don’t want to keep.
See how it works →Older houses that need work
Houses built in the early and middle 1900s often come with an old roof, outdated electrical or plumbing, or a crawl space that holds water. We price the repairs into the offer, so you don’t have to fix anything first.
See how it works →Shipyard and military moves
Between Newport News Shipbuilding and Fort Eustis, people here move on short notice. If you have a new job or PCS orders, we can make an offer within 24 hours and close on the date that fits your move.
Tired rentals
If a rental costs more than it brings in, or a tenant has stopped paying, we buy with tenants in place. You don’t have to wait for a lease to end or turn the unit over first.

Newport News questions
Selling a House in Newport News: FAQs
Do you buy houses in every part of Newport News?
Yes. We buy in the Southeast Community, North End and Hilton Village, in Hidenwood, Warwick and Riverside, and up through Denbigh, Kiln Creek, Port Warwick and Lee Hall.
I have orders from Fort Eustis or a new job away from the shipyard. How fast can you close?
In as little as 7 days once the title is clear, or on a later date you choose. You can also sign from your next duty station or your new city; the closing attorney can explain your options.
I inherited a house in Newport News. Where does probate happen?
Newport News is an independent city, so a Newport News resident’s will is probated with the Clerk of the Newport News Circuit Court. We can make an offer while the estate is being settled, and close once the right person can sign.
Will you buy a Newport News rental with tenants still living there?
Yes. We buy rental houses with tenants in place, including tenants who are behind on rent.
Do I need to clean out or repair the house first?
No. We buy the house as it is today. Take what you want and leave the rest; we handle the clean-out.

Hampton Roads sellers on working with us
Coming back to check-in. Was in a time crunch a couple months ago because I was PCS’ing for the military and Jack and his team at O’Neill Home Buyers made quick work of what was a HUGE headache in my process of uprooting myself north. I was able to leave everything I did not need, they gave me a great offer and they were very in tune with my fluid and hectic schedule. If I ever need to sell a home again, don’t care where I am located, you’ll be the first guys i contact!
I needed to sell my house fast in Virginia Beach and found O’Neill Home Buyers online. From the first call, Jack was straightforward and professional. They made a fair cash offer within 24 hours and we closed in less than two weeks no repairs, no realtor fees, no hassle. If you’re looking to sell your home as-is in Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach, or the surrounding area, I highly recommend O’Neill Home Buyers. Best decision I made.
Sam was really kind and empathetic! Even though we were unable to come to a sale, I don’t regret reaching out. Sam is trustworthy and will work with you the best he can. If you are looking to get rid of a property In Hampton Roads I highly recommend Sam!
