How fast can I actually sell my house if I get PCS orders?


In Hampton Roads, the average home takes about 22 days to go under contract. Homes we list have gone under contract in as few as 5 days when priced and marketed correctly from day one — which matters when your timeline isn’t optional.

 

Do I need to be in Hampton Roads to sell my home?

No. We handle remote sellers regularly — virtual walkthroughs, electronic signing, and coordinating repairs or staging on your behalf if you’ve already relocated to your next duty station.

 

Should I worry about accepting an offer from a buyer using a VA loan?

This is one of the most common — and costly — mistakes Hampton Roads sellers make. VA loans close just as reliably as conventional loans, and dismissing a strong VA offer out of an outdated assumption can mean turning down your best buyer for no real reason.

 

What if my orders change after I’ve already listed or made an offer?

Tell us as soon as you know. Timelines built around PCS dates need to flex both directions, and the earlier we know, the more options we have — whether that’s adjusting a closing date or restructuring a contingency.

 

Will my construction background help with VA appraisal requirements?

Yes — Chris’s background in commercial construction means issues that could trip up a VA appraisal (handrails, exposed wiring, peeling exterior paint) often get caught and addressed before the appraiser ever shows up.
