Sell my house fast in Hampton Roads
From the Oceanfront to the Peninsula, we buy houses across the whole region.
Hampton Roads is seven cities and a few counties wrapped around one harbor, and the houses are as different as the places. Pre-war foursquares in Ghent and Olde Towne, post-war brick ranches in Wythe and Great Bridge, 1970s split-levels in Kempsville and Denbigh, waterfront cottages in Ocean View and Buckroe, and farmhouses on well and septic out past Suffolk. We are Sam and Jack O’Neill, local buyers based in Virginia Beach. We have bought houses on both sides of the water, and we buy them the way they are: old roofs, flooded crawl spaces, tenants in place, a house full of belongings, or a family that has to be gone by a certain date.
- Offer within 24 hours

What sellers across the region call us about
Inherited houses
Many houses here have been in one family since the shipyard and Navy years. When a parent passes, the heirs are often out of state and the house needs work. We buy inherited houses as-is, during or after probate, and you can leave behind anything you don’t want to keep.
See how it works →Military and PCS moves
With Norfolk Naval Station, Langley, Oceana, Fort Eustis and Little Creek all in the region, people here move on orders. If you have a report date, we can make an offer within 24 hours and close on the date that fits your move, and you can sign from your next duty station.
Water, flood zones and old houses
Low-lying streets flood, crawl spaces hold water, and a lot of the housing stock is 60 to 100 years old. We price the roof, the wiring, the plumbing and the water damage into the offer, so you don’t have to fix anything first.
See how it works →Tired rentals and tenants
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.

Real deal · Hampton, VA · September 2026
Inherited house with a foreclosure auction date set. Closed in 14 days.
A family inherited this brick ranch at 33 Azalea Drive in Hampton. Nobody had the money to keep up the mortgage payments, and a foreclosure auction date had already been set.
We closed in 14 days, before the auction. The mortgage was paid off from the sale, and the family walked away with six figures in equity instead of risking it at auction.

Hampton Roads questions
Selling a House in Hampton Roads: FAQs
Which cities do you buy in?
Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Hampton, Newport News and Williamsburg, plus the counties around them. Each city has its own page on this site with the neighborhoods we buy in.
Is the offer different on the Southside than on the Peninsula?
No. Every house is priced the same way: what it will be worth fixed up, minus the repairs it needs, the costs to buy and sell it, and our margin. The numbers differ by house, not by which side of the water it is on.
My house is in a flood zone. Will you still buy it?
Yes. Low-lying streets are part of buying here. Flood insurance and elevation affect what the house is worth, and we work that into the offer instead of asking you to deal with it.
I have PCS orders. 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 sign from your next duty station; the closing attorney will explain your options.
I inherited a house here but live out of state. How does that work?
You never have to come back. We walk the house, send the offer, and the closing attorney handles the signing remotely. Take what you want from the house and leave the rest; we handle the clean-out.
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.
