🧱 Selling a House in Virginia With Foundation Issues

If you’ve found cracks in the walls, doors that won’t shut, or a sloping floor foundation problems might be the culprit.

Here’s what most homeowners worry about:

  • Will I have to fix it before selling?
  • Will buyers back out?
  • Will I even get an offer?

Here’s the truth:
You can still sell your Virginia house even with serious foundation issues.
At The Cash Offer Company, we buy homes as-is no matter how tilted, cracked, or sinking they are.


🔍 Signs of Foundation Trouble

Common issues in Virginia homes include:

  • Horizontal or stair-step cracks in the walls
  • Windows or doors that don’t close properly
  • Uneven or sloping floors
  • Gaps between walls and ceilings
  • Bowing basement walls
  • Moisture or mold near the base of the structure

These are often caused by shifting soil, water damage, or age and they can scare off buyers and appraisers fast.


💸 The Real Cost of Foundation Repair in Virginia

Repairing a foundation isn’t cheap. In Virginia, it can cost:

  • $4,000–$8,000 for minor fixes
  • $10,000+ for structural repairs
  • $20,000+ for full pier installation or wall replacement

And that doesn’t include code upgrades or damage to flooring, drywall, or plumbing.


🧾 Can You Sell Without Fixing It?

Yes, but there’s a catch.
You’ll likely need to:

  • Disclose the issue under Virginia’s material defect laws
  • Lower your asking price drastically
  • Deal with low appraisals
  • Hope the buyer doesn’t back out after inspection

Or, you could avoid the traditional route entirely…
