💧 Selling a House With Water Damage in Virginia | What You Should Know

Water damage is one of the most stressful problems a homeowner can face. Whether it’s from a roof leak, broken pipe, flood zone, or old plumbing—it can cost thousands in repairs and scare off traditional buyers.

But the good news is: you can still sell your house in Virginia—even with water damage.

At The Cash Offer Company, we buy homes as-is, no matter how bad the damage is.


🏚️ What Counts as Water Damage?

Water damage in a Virginia home can come from:

  • Flooding from hurricanes or storms
  • Broken or leaking plumbing
  • Roof or foundation leaks
  • Cracked sump pumps
  • Water intrusion in crawlspaces
  • Burst pipes in winter

Damage like this can lead to mold, foundation issues, and even code violations.

Check your home’s flood zone status to see if it’s a high-risk area.


🧾 Do I Have to Repair Water Damage Before Selling?

No—you can sell a water-damaged house as-is in Virginia, as long as you disclose known issues.

That means you’re not legally required to:

  • Replace drywall
  • Clean mold
  • Repair plumbing
  • Repaint or replace flooring
  • Treat for pests or mildew

We buy properties with visible water damage, failed inspections, and even standing water.


❌ Why Traditional Buyers Walk Away

Most retail buyers (and agents) avoid water-damaged homes due to:

  • Health risks from mold or mildew
  • Expensive hidden repairs
  • Insurance claim complications
  • Inability to get a mortgage
  • Failed inspections

In some cases, the damage leads to liens from the city or HOA.
