We Know This City

We buy houses in every part of Portsmouth

From Olde Towne, Park View, and Port Norfolk to Cradock, Churchland, Westhaven, and Cavalier Manor, we make cash offers across the whole city. The historic Olde Towne homes that need restoring, the older stock, the inherited houses most buyers walk away from are the ones we specialize in.

Portsmouth is anchored by the Norfolk Naval Shipyard and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, so shipyard schedules and Navy moves are part of our normal week. Our office is right across the river in Virginia Beach at 192 Ballard Court, not a call center three states away.

What this means if you’re selling: these medians describe homes that are repaired, updated, and ready to show. If yours needs work, sits in a flood zone, or has to sell on a deadline, getting to that number means months of work, real out-of-pocket cost, and a financed buyer whose loan can still fall through. For the right seller, a cash offer trades the highest possible price for speed, certainty, and zero out-of-pocket, and because we’re a licensed brokerage, we’ll tell you honestly which path nets you more.

Portsmouth, Specifically

Selling a historic Olde Towne home

Portsmouth has one of the largest collections of historic homes on the East Coast. The antebellum, Federal, and Victorian houses of Olde Towne, Park View, and Cradock are older than almost anything across the river, and they carry a century or two of character.

They also carry old systems, plaster walls, knob-and-tube wiring, foundations that have shifted, and preservation considerations. Financed buyers’ inspectors flag it, appraisers struggle to comp a one-of-a-kind house, and loans stall on the very things that make the home special.

What a cash sale removes

  • No restoring old systems before you sell
  • No lender requiring repairs on a historic home
  • No appraisal struggling to comp a unique house
  • No financed buyer whose loan can collapse
  • Close in 7 to 14 days, exactly as-is

Historic neighborhoods we buy in: Olde Towne, Park View, Cradock, Port Norfolk, and the older streets of Churchland.

A cash sale takes all of that off your plate. We buy historic Portsmouth homes exactly as they sit, every quirk and every year of it, so you don’t restore a thing, you just sell.

“It was a pleasure working with Matt Beck. During an initial call my father made to him about selling his house, Matt suggested reaching out to an Eldercare attonery before starting the process to help answer some specific questions and ease his mind. It was refreshing to find that Matt always answered calls, including nights and weekends. I never had to leave a message or wait for him to get back with me. Matt, through his experience buying homes, made the process seamless. I found Matt to be honest, helpful and an excellent communicator throughout the process. I highly recommend him if you want to sell your house quickly (or slower if need a little time) for a fair price.”

“It was my pleasure to meet Aaron a few weeks before NetWorth officially went live in Hampton Roads. As a new RE investor, he gave me extensive guidance on how to make it in the market in general; even to this day. And closing on my property was pretty much painless, as well. He knows what he's doing!”

Portsmouth Sellers Ask

Frequently asked questions

How fast can I sell my house in Portsmouth?+

Most Portsmouth cash sales close in about 10 to 14 days, and you usually get a written offer within 48 hours. If you are on a Navy timeline or working through probate, we can move the closing to fit your schedule.

Do you buy historic homes in Olde Towne and Park View as-is?+

Yes. Portsmouth has one of the largest collections of historic homes on the East Coast, and they often come with very old systems, plaster, knob-and-tube wiring, and foundations that have shifted. We buy them exactly as they sit, so you do not restore a thing before selling.

We are stationed at the shipyard or Naval Medical Center with orders. Can you close on our timeline?+

Yes, and we do it often. Between the Norfolk Naval Shipyard and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, hard-deadline moves are part of our normal week. We can close before your report date, or hold a later date if you need it.

What parts of Portsmouth do you buy in?+

All of it. From Olde Towne, Park View, and Port Norfolk to Cradock, Churchland, Westhaven, and Cavalier Manor. Any neighborhood, any condition.

Do I pay any fees or commissions?+

No. There are no agent commissions, no closing-cost fees charged to you, and no repair costs. Because NetWorth is a licensed Virginia brokerage, every sale closes through a licensed title company, the same as a normal home sale.
