We Buy Houses In Richmond, VA
“Sell My House Fast For Cash”
You’ve probably had an agent walk through your house already, and you’ve got a rough idea what the repairs would cost. Now you’re wondering if there’s an easier way. There is, and it starts with one phone call. We come out, look at your place ourselves, and put a cash offer in writing on your Richmond house. Take as long as you need with it, because nobody is going to rush you to sell your house.
If you’re torn between listing and a cash sale, that’s normal. We’d rather you compare both ways to sell than feel pushed into either one. Call (804) 609-3966 for a cash offer on your Richmond house, and you’ll have a real number to set next to the agent’s estimate. Someone on our team will walk you through how it works.
We’re a local cash home buyer helping homeowners sell their houses on their own terms.

CONFIDENCE YOU NEED
Company That Buys Houses Richmond
I’m Andrew Ervin, and I founded Maxsin Investment Group after watching too many Virginia homeowners lose months trying to sell a house that needed more work than they could afford. Most of them lost real equity in the process. I started this company to give owners like them another way to sell. My team is local to Richmond, and we buy houses with our own cash, so no lender decides how fast you sell.
Mr. Pruitt called me after a slow leak rotted the subfloor under his back bathroom, and termites got into two joists underneath it. His contractor quoted $14,000 before anyone had pulled up a single tile. He’d lived in that house for 31 years and had no interest in watching a crew tear it apart around him, so he wanted to sell it as it was. We agreed to buy his house for cash that same week and closed 21 days later, on the day he picked, without him fixing a thing.
I’ll be upfront about how we make money, because it explains the offer you’ll get when you sell your house to us. We buy houses, pay for the repairs ourselves, and make our profit when we resell them. That’s why our cash price is lower than a fully renovated house would sell for on the Richmond market. Some owners can pay for the repairs and wait for a buyer. If that’s you, listing your house could put more in your pocket, and I’ll tell you that myself. Not sure how you want to sell? Get our cash offer and compare it to what you’d walk away with from a Richmond agent’s estimate for your house, after commission and repairs come out.
We buy houses in Richmond, Virginia, in any condition, from full gut jobs to homes that only need a coat of paint. No matter what shape your house is in, we’ll still make you a cash offer. If you need to sell fast, give us your move-out date, and we’ll close with the cash in your account that day.
OUR SIMPLE PROCESS TO SELL
How Can I Sell My House Fast In Richmond?
How fast a sale closes mostly depends on whether the buyer pays cash for your house. A financed buyer has to get through an appraisal and underwriting on the lender’s timeline. For a listed Richmond house, that adds another 30 to 60 days once it’s under contract. When you sell your house to us in Richmond, VA, we pay with our own cash, so most closings wrap up in 21 to 24 days. Our fastest ever was 15 days from the first call to cash in your account. That difference matters most when you need to sell fast because a mortgage payment is coming due or you’ve already signed a lease somewhere else.
Call About Your House
Call (804) 609-3966 and tell us what’s going on with your Richmond house, who’s living there right now, and how fast you’d like to sell it.
Get A Written Cash Offer
Someone from our team will walk through your Richmond house with you, and you’ll have a firm cash offer fast, with no obligation to sell once it’s in your hands.
Close And Get Paid In Cash
You pick the day you sell, and a licensed Virginia closing agent records the deed, pays off your loan, and wires the rest of your cash to your account.
Wondering how we compare to the online offer sites? They usually price your house from photos, tax records, and a formula built on national data, often before anyone has seen it in person. Then an inspector comes out, and a service fee plus a list of repair credits can shrink the cash you were first shown. Maxsin Investment Group starts with a visit instead. Someone on our team walks through your Richmond house, and then we put a price in writing. We buy houses fast, and when you sell to us, the cash offer we hand you is the one we close on.
IN WHICH SITUATIONS?
We Buy Houses In Richmond In Any Situation
Whatever’s behind your decision to sell your house, Maxsin Investment Group has probably worked through something close to it. A new job three states away, a parent’s house nobody has time to deal with, cash getting tight, or a place you’ve outgrown can all leave you needing to sell fast. We buy houses for cash in Richmond, VA, without a single showing, and you decide how fast you want to sell from the very first call.
Going Through A Divorce
One cash price you both agree on gives you a single number to split and no need to buy anyone out.
Moving Due To Retirement
If you plan to buy something smaller around Richmond, pick a day to sell that lines up with your move-in date.
Too Many Repairs
We buy your house with the aging roof and old wiring included, and the repairs become ours to pay for.
Inherited A House
Once probate closes in Richmond, VA, the estate can sell to us for cash without clearing out a single room.
Avoiding Foreclosure
If a trustee’s sale is already on the calendar, closing fast can still pay off your loan before the auction.
Job Relocation
Close fast, before your first day at the new job, and skip paying rent and a mortgage in the same month.
We buy houses across the greater Richmond area, along with vacant lots, duplexes, condos, townhouses, manufactured homes, and small commercial properties. An open probate case, a lien, or a title problem won’t keep you from being able to sell. We work through each one with the closing agent ahead of time.
WHY SELL TO US?
We Buy Houses Fast In Richmond
Zero Agent Commissions
When you sell through a listing agent, the commission runs 5 to 6 percent of the price, which is $15,000 to $18,000 on a $300,000 house. Sell directly to us for cash, and there’s no listing agreement to sign, and no one at the closing table taking a cut. Your written cash offer is the price we pay, and when you sell, you keep all of it instead of splitting it with a Richmond agent.
No Showings With A Cash Buyer
List your house in Richmond, and strangers tour it on short notice while you keep the kitchen spotless and the dog out of the way, week after week. When we buy your Richmond house, there’s just one walkthrough before you get the cash offer.
Less Stress, Start To Finish
Our team handles the paperwork with the licensed Virginia closing agent and schedules everything around the day you pick. There’s no waiting weeks for an update or wondering if you’ll ever sell. We buy houses in Richmond as-is for cash, so no repair list shows up halfway through. Once you pick your date, we take it from there and keep things moving fast.
How To Sell Your House In Richmond Without An Agent
A traditional listing takes weeks of staging and showings, then another 30 to 60 days after a buyer signs. When you sell your house directly to us for cash, none of that prep work or marketing ever starts, which is why everything moves so fast. The table below compares both ways to sell on the six questions Richmond, VA homeowners ask us most.
| Selling To Maxsin Investment Group | Selling With A Real Estate Agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Agent Commission | Zero, and we cover closing costs | 5 to 6 percent of the sale price |
| Repairs Before Listing | None, we buy your house as-is | Out of your pocket before listing day |
| People Touring Your Home | A single walkthrough with our team | Open houses and strangers for weeks |
| Loan Approval | No lender involved, we pay cash | The buyer’s lender can stall or sink the sale |
| Inspector And Appraiser | Already priced into the cash offer | Often leads to repair demands or a lower price |
| How Fast You Close | 21 to 24 days, on the date you pick | Two to three months, start to finish |
When you sell your house on the open market, a few things can still sink the sale late. The buyer’s loan falls through, the inspection turns up work you never budgeted for, or the appraisal comes in low and reopens the price. None of that happens when you sell your house to Maxsin Investment Group , because we buy houses fast with our own cash. If you’ve already had a contract fall apart, you know why a firm cash offer matters.
Richmond Homeowners Who Sold Their House To Us
We buy houses in Richmond and across central Virginia. Here is what those sellers say about how it went.

Lisa Johnson, Richmond VA
★★★★★
My husband passed away and I was forced to maintain the properties all alone. I reached out to a couple different real estate agents. Unfortunately the agents couldn’t help and told me I’d end up paying money at the closing table because we had little to no equity. I reached out to this fantastic company and they bought all our rental properties along with the tenants still in place…

Jennifer Kesseler, Chester VA
★★★★★
They were professional and explained the process and timeline and were very accommodating to our needs for the tenants involved. They were prompt with a reply to our questions by text, email or phone call. There was never any pressure. I felt they were honest and up front about everything.

I was so afraid when we started this arrangement but every step of the way Maxsin Group assured me that everything would work out and today it did. 2020 was a very bad year for a lot of reasons however the Maxsin Investment Group did everything they said they would do and now I can say, I AM DEBT FREE…

★★★★★
Great company and very professional. I was surprised by how quickly they closed on my house and paid all closing costs. Even my friend who referred me to them got paid as well.

★★★★★
Waiting weeks/months and dealing with multiple showings just didn’t work for us, but Maxsin did. Definitely recommend for families with elders who need a fast solution, without being taken advantage of. They do not judge, take your property how you bring it to the table, and get it done…

Cindy Morgan
★★★★★
I reached out to Maxsin Investment Group about selling my Mom’s home. Chris met with me to look at the home and promptly gave me an offer. The other company gave me a conditioned offer, went back and forth making me uncomfortable. We closed exactly when Chris said we would. The entire process was easy and stress free…
WHERE WE BUY
Areas We Buy Houses Around Richmond
Richmond is an independent city, so it doesn’t belong to any county. Inside the city limits, we buy houses ranging from occupied family homes to vacant rentals and remodels someone started and never finished. Just outside the city line, many addresses in the surrounding counties still say Richmond on the mail, even though the tax bill comes from the county. We buy houses on both sides of that line, fast and for cash, and you sell on the same terms either way.
North of Richmond, we buy houses in Lakeside, Dumbarton, and Chamberlayne, with East Highland Park farther out along Mechanicsville Turnpike. Up in Ashland, on I-95 in Hanover County, we buy houses for cash all the time. East of the city, Highland Springs runs along Nine Mile Road, and Sandston borders Richmond International Airport, with Fair Oaks and Montrose close by. Varina follows Route 5 toward the James River, where older houses sit on bigger lots, and many of those owners sell to us for cash when their house needs more work than it’s worth.
West of Richmond, we buy houses along River Road and Patterson Avenue in Tuckahoe. Laurel sits just north of West Broad Street, and Short Pump fills in where Broad meets I-64. South of Richmond across the James, we buy houses in Bon Air and Meadowbrook, then down Route 1 through Bensley, Bellwood, and Chester. Our Richmond service area reaches out to Brandermill and Woodlake on Swift Creek Reservoir.
The bigger markets around Richmond each have a page of their own, starting with Henrico and Glen Allen to the north and west, and Mechanicsville to the northeast. Chesterfield and Midlothian cover the south and southwest of Richmond, and we buy houses farther down I-95 in Colonial Heights and Petersburg. If you’re ready to sell your house but aren’t sure which side of a line it’s on, call (804) 609-3966, and we’ll look it up while you’re on the phone.

SELLING MADE SIMPLE
Sell Your House In Richmond As-Is
Fair Cash Offer
Our written offer comes together fast and reflects what your home is worth in Richmond as it sits, with the repairs priced in. A rough kitchen or a tired roof won’t stop us from making an offer to buy your house. Once you agree to sell, that cash price holds through closing. Nobody comes back after an inspection asking for a credit.
Pick The Day You Sell
You choose your closing date in Richmond, VA, whether that’s as fast as the title work clears or two months out because you haven’t found your next place. We’re happy to wait the full sixty days if you need them. You set the calendar when you sell your house, and nobody’s bank gets to move it.
Sell Without Fixing Anything
We buy houses with roof damage, foundation cracks, old plumbing, and kitchens nobody has touched in decades, so nothing about your Richmond house will turn us away. You can sell without hiring a contractor, pulling a permit, or paying for a single estimate. The cash you’d have spent getting your house ready stays in your pocket when you sell it as-is.
Zero Fees Or Commissions
When you sell your house to us in Richmond, no commission comes out of your cash, and we cover the title fees and your closing costs. Every cost is listed on your written offer, so you know the cash you’ll clear before you sign. Virginia‘s grantor tax is usually the one cost you still pay when you sell your house, though in some cases, we cover that too. The tax is $0.50 for every $500 of the sale price or assessed value, whichever is higher. If your area adds a small regional transportation fee, we’ll list that on your written offer too.
Fast Closing, Paid In Cash
A listed Richmond house waits on a buyer and then on that buyer’s lender, while we buy houses with our own cash and close well inside a month. Need to sell your house fast before a move that’s already on the calendar? We’ll set the closing so it lands before moving day.
A Private Sale
Your house never goes on the MLS, there’s no sign in the yard, and no photos of your living room end up online when you sell. Nothing about a cash sale goes public while it’s happening, and afterward, the deed gets recorded with the circuit court clerk like any other Virginia sale. When you sell your house for cash, your Richmond neighbors won’t hear a thing until the moving truck pulls up.
WHAT WAITING COSTS
Cash For My House Richmond
Most people who sell to us are surprised by how fast it goes and how little they have to do. After your first phone call, we walk through your Richmond house once, and one signature is all it takes to get cash fast. Our team handles everything after that. We order the title search and your lender’s payoff letter, then book the closing agent for the day you want to sell. The cash we pay to buy your house is already in the bank, so there’s no loan approval holding things up. Most sellers in Richmond, VA close fast and have their cash about three weeks after that first call. A tenant who hasn’t moved out or an open code notice won’t slow things down. We buy houses with either one in place and still close a fast cash sale.
You might assume you’ll need to clear out the closets and patch a few walls before anyone in Richmond will buy your house. If you sell to us for cash, you can move fast and skip all of that, without paying a cleaning crew or a stager first. When you sell your house fast, you skip the months of mortgage, tax, and utility payments a listing racks up while it sits on the market. You won’t pay anything up front, and the closing agent wires your cash on the day you sell. Moved away from Richmond, VA already? A mobile notary can meet you at your door with the papers, and you can sell from wherever you live now.
Once you sign, the process moves to settlement. On closing day, your cash arrives by wire transfer directly to your account, with no repair holdbacks, no post-sale inspections, and no lingering obligations. The cash is yours, the house title transfers, and you are done.
Questions About Selling Your House For Cash In Richmond
Can I Leave Furniture And Belongings Behind When I Sell?
Yes, take whatever matters to you and leave the rest, from boxes in the attic to a garage full of tools. We buy houses fast in Richmond with everything still inside, and clearing out what’s left becomes our job. When you sell your house to us, there’s no need for an estate sale or a dumpster rental first. Both would only eat up cash and weekends you could spend elsewhere.
Why Sell To A Local Buyer Instead Of An Online Offer Site?
With a local cash buyer, someone actually tours your Richmond house before any price is set. An online site starts from a model and adjusts after the inspection. One walkthrough is all it takes for us to make a firm cash offer to buy your house, and it comes fast, with no fee from us at closing. From the first call to the day you sell, you’re dealing with our local team instead of a call center that hands you off at every step.
What Lowers The Value Of A House The Most?
Deferred maintenance does the most damage, and it snowballs fast, because one ignored problem creates the next. A leaking roof leads to mold, then damaged framing, and the price your house can sell for drops a little more with each one. Some things are out of your control, like a busy road nearby or a flood zone, and they weigh on Richmond prices as well. We buy houses for cash and figure the condition into our price from the start.
How Much Less Do I Walk Away With If I Sell For Cash?
Once every cost is on paper, the gap between our offer and a Richmond listing price is often smaller than it looks. When you sell your house to us, you skip the agent commission, the repair bills, and months of carrying costs. Virginia‘s grantor tax is normally the seller’s cost at closing, just as it would be if you sell your house through a listing, though there are times we’ll take it off your plate. Once you add it all up, the cash you keep can come closer to a listing’s net than you’d expect.
How Does My Mortgage Get Paid Off In A Cash Sale?
When we buy your Richmond house, the closing agent pays off your loan, out of what we pay you, the same way it works in any Virginia home sale. If you owe more than our cash offer, we’ll talk through your options before anything gets signed. Whatever equity is left after the payoff comes to you in cash. When you sell your house to us in Richmond, VA, your deed of trust is released the same way it would be in a listed sale, only faster.
Please contact us if you do not find your answer here.
We are happy to talk through how we buy houses, what you walk away with, taxes, equity and anything else on your mind.
There are no repairs to make and no strangers walking through when you sell to Maxsin Investment Group . We cover the closing costs, and no agent commission comes out of the cash we pay to buy your house. Whether you need to sell fast or want a couple of months to plan, you pick the date. You’ll know the cash price and the date before you agree to sell, and neither one moves. We buy houses fast for cash all over Richmond, VA, from starter homes to fixer-uppers that need a lot of work.
