About Academy Home Buyers
Honest Help for Homeowners in Virginia Beach, Virginia
Hi, We’re Matt and Val— founders of Academy Home Buyers. After retiring from the Police Department, I knew I wanted to continue serving people in meaningful ways. Real estate gave me the perfect opportunity to do just that. Now, 8 years later, I’ve helped many homeowners move on from difficult properties with ease and confidence.
At Academy Home Buyers, we buy houses for cash in any condition in Virginia Beach, Virginia — fast, fair, and without the headaches of traditional sales.
Why I Got Into Real Estate
I spent years protecting and serving the community. But when I transitioned out of law enforcement, I looked for a career where I could still help people — especially those feeling stuck or overwhelmed by their property situation.
Whether someone’s facing foreclosure, dealing with an inherited property, going through a divorce, or just tired of being a landlord — I understand how stressful it can be. My mission is to offer real solutions with respect, transparency, and care.
