Richmond is one of Virginia's most dynamic real estate markets-a city in the middle of a generational transformation, surrounded by some of the fastest, growing suburban counties in the state. Whether it's a historic Fan District property with 100 years of deferred maintenance, a Chesterfield County rental that's been through too many tenants, or a Hanover County farmhouse that's been sitting empty since an estate settled, I buy it. Cash, as-is, on your schedule.

My coverage runs from Richmond city (23220, 23221, 23222, 23223, 23224, 23225, 23226, 23227, 23228, 23229, 23230, 23231, 23234) through Henrico County (23059, 23060, 23228, 23229, 23233, 23294), Chesterfield County (23112, 23113, 23114, 23120, 23832, 23834, 23836, 23838), Hanover County (23111, 23116, 23146), Powhatan County (23139), and Goochland County (23060, 23063). Glen Allen, Short Pump, Midlothian, Bon Air, Mechanicsville, Ashland, if it's in the Richmond metro, I'll make you an offer.

Richmond city itself has a lot of older housing stock, early 1900s construction in Church Hill, the Fan, and Northside; mid-century ranchers in Southside; 1960s-1980s development in Manchester and Forest Hill. These properties have character but they come with real maintenance needs that can make traditional financing a challenge. Foundation issues, knob, and, tube wiring, lead paint, outdated plumbing, I've seen all of it and I buy past it. My dad was a contractor; I know exactly what these projects cost and I price them honestly into my offer.

Short Pump and Midlothian are the opposite end of the spectrum, newer suburban development, higher price points, but still plenty of sellers who need speed over maximum price. Corporate relocations out of the Richmond market, divorces in high-value homes, estates where multiple heirs need a fast, clean sale, these situations happen in every price bracket. I buy anywhere from a $150,000 Southside bungalow to a $600,000 Short Pump colonial.

No agent commissions. No closing costs on your end. The number I offer is the number you take home. I call you the same day you submit. Fill out the form below.

## FAQ

**Q: Do you buy houses in Henrico and Chesterfield County?**

A: Yes. Henrico and Chesterfield are two of my most active areas in the Richmond metro. I buy in Short Pump (23233), Glen Allen (23059, 23060), Midlothian (23112, 23113), Bon Air, and all the suburban neighborhoods surrounding the city. Condition doesn't factor into whether I'll make an offer, only into the number.

**Q: Do you buy houses in Richmond city itself?**

A: Absolutely. Richmond city ZIP codes 23220 through 23234 are markets I know well. Church Hill, Scott's Addition, Northside, Southside, Manchester, the Fan, I buy in established neighborhoods and up, and, coming areas alike. Historic homes with deferred maintenance, estate properties, rentals that need work, all of it.

**Q: How fast can you close in the Richmond area?**

A: I can close in as little as 7 days in the Richmond metro. Standard timeline runs 14-21 days. I work with title companies in Short Pump and Richmond city that move efficiently. No lender required, no appraisal bottleneck, just a signed contract, a title search, and a closing date you choose.

**Q: Do you buy houses in Hanover County and Mechanicsville?**

A: Yes. Hanover County (23111, 23116, 23060) and Mechanicsville are part of my regular coverage in the Richmond metro. Older housing stock, rural acreage properties, homes near I-295, I buy across the northern side of the metro just as actively as Chesterfield and Henrico to the south and west.
