Where you are
The rental was supposed to help. Now it runs your weekends.
It started as a smart move. Maybe you bought it as an investment, or you rented out your own home when orders or a new job took you somewhere else. Somewhere along the way it stopped feeling like income and started feeling like a second job.
The water heater goes out on a holiday. The rent shows up late, or not at all. A tenant moves out and leaves holes in the walls, stained carpet and a full trash can on the curb. The manager takes a cut every month, and the rent barely covers the mortgage, taxes and insurance anymore.
Wanting out doesn’t make you a bad landlord. It just means the math, or your patience, has run out. You can find out what the house is worth to us before you fix a single thing, sign a new lease or decide anything at all.
Virginia law
Selling a rental property in Virginia: a landlord’s last duties.
Getting out of the landlord business still comes with a few Virginia rules. Three of them matter when a rented house changes owners, and each card names its Code section.
Educational, not legal advice. This section explains general Virginia rules in plain language, reviewed . Every situation is different, so talk to a Virginia attorney before you act on it.
-
Your tenant hears from you about the sale
If someone is renting the house when it sells, you have to let them know it was sold and pass along the new owner’s name, address and a phone number they can call.
-
Settle the security deposit at closing
The owner of the house when a tenancy ends is the one who has to refund whatever deposit the tenant is owed, even if the seller never transferred it. Crediting the deposit to the buyer at closing keeps that clean for everyone.
-
Virginia’s disclosure form is already buyer beware
The Real Estate Board’s standard disclosure statement is buyer beware. The seller makes no representations about the home’s condition, and the buyer is told to inspect it on their own.
Your options
Hire a manager, fix and list, or sell as-is: weighing your way out.
Not every tired landlord should sell, and not every sale should be to us. Here is how the usual paths compare, including the catch on ours.
| Option | What it involves | A good fit when | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand it to a property manager | A management company screens tenants, collects rent and dispatches repairs for a monthly fee. | You still want to own the house and the rent leaves room for the fee. | The phone calls stop, but the repair bills and vacancies still land on you. |
| Make it ready and rent it again | Patch, paint and clean after the last tenant, then advertise, screen and sign a new lease. | The house is in decent shape and the numbers still work. | You start the cycle over, and an empty month or two comes out of your pocket. |
| Renovate it and list it | Wait for the house to be empty, bring it up to retail condition, then list with an agent. | You have the cash, time and energy for one more project. | It can sell for more, but repairs, carrying costs and commissions come first, and buyer inspections can reopen the repair list. |
| Our offer Sell the rental to us as-is | One cash offer for the rental as it is today, tenant or no tenant, worn finishes and all. | You are done being a landlord and don’t want to put more money into the house. | Rehabbed and put on the market, the rental might bring more. Before you compare, take off the turnover work, the empty months during the rehab and the commissions. |
The quickest way to choose is to put an actual number next to the work each path takes. Get your cash offer, then decide.
Why landlords sell to us
Why worn-out landlords sell to a buyer down the road.
You already know what a rental takes out of you. Selling it shouldn’t be one more project, so we take the house in whatever state the last tenancy left it.
-
Tenant damage is part of the deal
Scuffed walls, ruined carpet, broken blinds, a yard nobody mowed. You don’t repair, paint or haul anything. We buy it as it stands.
-
Turnover work, priced like a contractor
Angel has worked as a contractor, so he knows what a move-out repair list really costs. You aren’t paying for a padded estimate.
-
Your property manager can stay in the loop
If a management company runs the house, we can coordinate the walk-through with them. Your only homework is checking how your agreement with them ends.
-
Local, and he knows why you rented it
Angel served in the U.S. Navy and is local to Hampton Roads; you deal with him, not a franchise or an app. If your rental began with a set of PCS orders, he understands that path from the inside.

In their words
Perfect solution for landlords ready to step away.
After dealing with problematic tenants and constant repairs on my rental property, I was ready to exit. Remodeling Investment Group bought the property as-is—no cleaning or repairs required. They were honest, polite, and kept every promise they made. A top-tier team!
David K. Saved me from a huge headache!
I inherited a property that needed a massive amount of work—roof leaks, outdated plumbing, you name it. I didn’t have the time or funds to fix it up before putting it on the market. Remodeling Investment Group came through with a fair cash offer within 24 hours. The process was smooth, transparent, and we closed in under two weeks. Couldn't recommend them enough!
Marcus T. Seamless experience from start to finish.
I had to relocate for a new job on short notice and needed to sell my home fast without dealing with endless open houses or repair demands from retail buyers. Remodeling Investment Group made a direct cash offer, handled all the paperwork, and let me pick my closing date. Truly stress-free!

How it works
How to sell your rental property without one more repair.
Every step is your call, and you can walk away at any point before closing.
-
Tell us about the rental
Send the address, whether someone lives there, and what you know needs work. Rough answers are fine.
-
Set up a walk-through
We look at the house in person. If it is occupied, the visit is arranged around your tenant with proper notice.
-
Review our cash offer
You get a fair, no-obligation cash offer, fast, and plain answers about how the sale would work. Take your time with it.
-
Close and hand over the keys
Pick the date, once title is clear. Rent and any deposit are settled at closing, and we cover standard closing costs.
Before you call
Helpful to have on hand, not required.
Your offer doesn’t wait on paperwork. Gather what’s easy to reach; the lease and deposit details matter most once a closing date is set.
- Current lease, if rented. Including the end date and any month-to-month terms.
- The deposit amount. What you are holding for the current tenant, if anyone.
- A rough repair list. Whatever you or your manager know is broken or worn out.
- Mortgage statement. The lender and an idea of what is still owed.
- Manager agreement. If a company manages it, check how that contract ends.

Questions
Selling a rental property as-is: questions and answers
Can I sell my rental property as-is in Virginia?
Yes. Virginia’s standard Real Estate Board disclosure statement is already buyer beware: the seller makes no representations about condition, and the buyer is told to inspect for themselves (Va. Code § 55.1-703). Your closing attorney can confirm what applies to your sale.
Do I have to keep making repairs while I decide to sell?
Generally, yes, while someone is renting from you. Virginia law tells a landlord to make the repairs needed to keep the premises fit and habitable, and to follow housing codes that affect health and safety (Va. Code § 55.1-1220). A written agreement can shift some specific repairs to the tenant, so check your lease. Selling is how that list stops being yours.
The last tenant left the place a mess. Do you still want it?
Yes. Holes in drywall, pet damage, old furniture left behind and a lawn gone to seed are all things we price in. Leave the mess right where it is. The damage is already in our number, so you don’t spend a dollar on make-ready to find out what the house is worth to us.
Do I have to wait for the lease to end before selling?
No. A rental can be sold with the tenant still living there, and your closing attorney can explain how the current lease carries over. One duty stays with you: once it sells, the tenant must hear from you who bought it, with the buyer’s name, address and a number to reach them (Va. Code § 55.1-1216).
I moved away and rent the house out from a distance. Can I still sell it to you?
Yes. You don’t have to fly in to show the house or oversee repairs. Ask your closing attorney or title company how and where you can sign, and we can work around a manager or tenant to see the property.
What about taxes when I sell a rental property?
Talk to a tax professional before you sign anything. Selling a rental can carry tax effects that selling your own home does not, such as recapture of depreciation you claimed, and some owners look into a 1031 exchange. Getting our offer early gives your tax adviser a real number to work with.
