Sell Your Colonial Place House for Cash in Norfolk
Colonial Place sits on the peninsula between the Lafayette River and the Elizabeth River near the Hampton Boulevard corridor — 1910s-40s bungalows, foursquares, and cottages close to the water on nearly every side.
Virginia Cash Real Estate buys Colonial Place houses in any condition, for cash, as-is — usually closing in 14–30 days. We're a family business that has bought more than 125 homes across Hampton Roads over the past 11 years, and we buy with our own funds.
Why Colonial Place homes can be hard to sell on the retail market
- Recurring tidal and nuisance flooding on low-lying streets
- Century-old homes with original wiring, plumbing, and plaster
- Flood insurance and elevation-certificate requirements
- Foundation settling and crawl space moisture from high water tables
What we buy in Colonial Place
- Historic bungalows and foursquares
- Flood-prone and previously flooded homes
- Homes with foundation or crawl space issues
- Estate sales
- Rentals near ODU and downtown
How a Colonial Place cash sale works
- Tell us about the house — age, roof, systems, tenants, timeline. A few questions is all it takes.
- We comp the street and send a written cash offer within 24 hours — no assignment clauses, no bait-and-switch.
- You choose the closing date — as fast as 7 days, or 60+ days out if you need time to move.
- We close at a local Hampton Roads title company — no repair credits, no financing contingency, no fees on your side.
Colonial Place cash offer vs. listing with an agent
The retail number usually looks bigger on paper. After 6% commission, seller-paid closing costs, inspection-triggered repairs, and two to three months of mortgage, taxes, insurance, and utilities, the net often lands within a few percent of a cash offer you can have in hand this week. If the house has any of the issues above, cash typically wins outright.

Frequently asked questions about selling a house in Colonial Place
Do you charge fees or commissions? No. The offer we send is what hits your bank at closing.
Will you buy a Colonial Place house with tenants in it? Yes. We buy occupied rentals regularly — month-to-month, lease-holding, or Section 8. You don't need to give notice first.
How fast can you close? Seven days is realistic on clean title; 10–14 days is typical. If you need longer, we close on your date.
Do I need to clean out the house? No. Leave whatever you don't want. We handle cleanout, including full estates.
Are you wholesalers? No. We buy with our own funds and close ourselves. The offer we give is the offer we close at — we don't renegotiate after inspection.
