Why Hampton Roads Works for PCSWith multiple installations—Naval Station Norfolk, NAS Oceana, JEB Little Creek–Fort Story, Langley AFB—our region is built for military families: commute-friendly neighborhoods, strong rental demand, and VA-loan-savvy sellers.We’re veterans and veteran-families serving veterans. Each PCS closing contributes to local veteran and youth programs—because service should multiply opportunity.

Hampton Roads entered mid-2025 with steady prices and more inventory than last year. The pace is healthier than the boom years—homes still sell when priced to the market and prepared well, while buyers have more options and a bit more time to decide. National Forces Shaping Local Outcomes• Mortgage rates remain higher than 2020–21 lows, but buyers are adapting with rate buydowns, ARMs, and seller credits.• Inflation has cooled from peak levels, easing pressure on wages and consumer confidence.• New-construction pipelines improved as supply chains normalized, offering relief in certain sub-markets. Local Anchors = Local Resilience• Defense & Shipbuilding (Naval Station Norfolk, Oceana, Newport News Shipbuilding) continue to stabilize demand.• Port activity, healthcare, and tourism support a broad employment base.• Seasonal draws in Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, and Hampton’s waterfront keep relocation demand consistent. What This Means for Buyers• More listings = better matching to your must-haves.• Use concessions (closing cost help, buydowns) to optimize the monthly payment.• Don’t skip pre-approval—clean, fast offers still win . What This Means for Sellers• Prep matters: pre-inspection, minor repairs, curb appeal.• Price to today’s comps, not last year’s peak.• Offer buyer incentives strategically to expand the pool . How We Put Community FirstEvery closing helps fund local scholarships and civic projects—because more homeownership should create more prosperity for all.

As major metros cool off, Virginia Beach is staying strong. Why? Because our region isn't just a destination—it's a way of life. With a strong military presence, low unemployment, and proximity to water and tourism, Hampton Roads consistently outpaces national fears of a housing crash. Yes, interest rates remain elevated—but demand hasn’t disappeared. Buyers are just more intentional. That’s where we come in: to guide families and investors through smart, sustainable decisions. More than ever, people are looking for homes where they can give back, raise families, and contribute to a growing community. We’re proud to help lead that movement. At Marching 2 More, we’re not just closing deals—we’re helping build legacies.Want to learn how our local economy is protecting your investment? Book a 15-minute consult with our team.

You may have heard about rate hikes from the Fed or inflation concerns from the IMF—but how do global forces impact your ability to buy or sell in Virginia Beach? Here’s how: Global supply chain issues are still impacting new construction timelines, raising prices on materials. Interest rate decisions affect loan approvals and buyer demand. International conflicts influence oil prices, which ripple into logistics, costs, and even homeowner expenses. Despite that, Hampton Roads remains uniquely protected. Why? Military bases, shipping ports, healthcare centers, and universities make our region a hub of economic stability. At Marching 2 More, we help you interpret the bigger picture so you can move with confidence—and invest in both a property and a purpose.Not sure if the economic headlines mean it’s time to wait or act? Let us walk through it with you.

Real estate is more than buying and selling—it’s about transformation. And in Hampton Roads, we’re seeing more buyers and sellers asking: “How can my move help more than just me?”That’s the question Marching 2 More is built to answer. When we help someone buy their first home, we’re not just gaining a client—we’re welcoming a new neighbor who will strengthen a community. When we sell a home, a portion of our profits is redirected into scholarships, civic programs, and economic uplift for the very cities we live in. We believe in more giving, more community, and more prosperity for all. And in a time where division often dominates the national narrative, homeownership can be a unifying force.

With rent prices still climbing in Virginia Beach, many are wondering: Should I keep renting or finally buy? National inflation has made budgeting more challenging—but mortgage rates, although higher, offer stability and wealth-building potential that rent cannot match. In Hampton Roads, we’re seeing first-time buyers, veterans, and even relocating families leap into ownership because they’re ready for more freedom, more control, and more future. And with VA loans, grants, and closing cost programs, buying might be more affordable than you think. At Marching 2 More, we believe in creating more paths to homeownership, especially for those who’ve traditionally been left out, because a prosperous future should belong to everyone.Not sure if it’s your time?
