Who is buying your house?

Meet the founders

The Founders of The von Group.

Matthew and Katlynn founded The von Group on one promise to homeowners: the number we offer after walking your house is the number on the closing-table check. No last-minute renegotiations, no invented inspection issues, no games. A Georgia-licensed brokerage (#H-81352) doing cash purchases the way it should be done.

Katlynn Teague

Co-Founder · Head of Sales

Katlynn handles the relationship side of every transaction. Before founding the brokerage she worked in investor acquisitions, which taught her exactly how the 'we buy houses' industry gets it wrong — and exactly how to do it differently and better.

If you sell your house to us, Katlynn is your main point of contact from the first conversation through the closing table. Direct phone number, straight answers, real human.

Matthew von Dwingelo

Co-Founder · Head of Acquisitions

Matthew has been buying Atlanta houses since November 2017. He started in door-to-door sales and moved into real-estate acquisitions, which means he's seen every situation — probate, divorce, inherited homes, tired rentals, inherited rentals, damage you don't want to explain to a stranger.

He walks every house he buys. He writes every offer himself. And he tells homeowners the same number twice — once after the walk and again at closing. That's his whole approach in one line.

Why we built it this way

A different kind of cash buyer.

Why we started

Fix what's broken about "we buy houses."

The cash-buyer space is crowded with wholesalers who submit inflated offers, then quietly lower the price during due diligence — using whatever they can find in the inspection as leverage. Homeowners sign a contract expecting one number and end up with a different one.

We built The von Group because Atlanta homeowners deserved a straightforward alternative: a licensed brokerage, a written offer that holds, and a team that tells you upfront what the number is and why.

How it works

Written offer in 24 hours. Close in under 30 days.

Submit your property and you get a preliminary written cash offer within 24 hours. A team member walks the house within 48 hours to confirm condition. Sign the contract and we close in 14 to 28 days — on your timeline, not ours.

Everything is documented, escrowed through title, and governed by Georgia real estate law. License #H-81352 on file with the Georgia Real Estate Commission. Not a handshake deal.

Who we are

A real team. Real license.

Five full-time acquisitions specialists underwriting 50–100 Atlanta-metro homes every week. Over 150 closings since 2020. Every condition: probate, tired rentals, fixer-uppers, code-violation boards, and the ones you "don't want to deal with."

You'll talk to a person, not a chatbot or a 1-800 number. And if selling to us isn't actually your best option, we'll say so — sometimes a traditional MLS listing nets you more and we'll refer you to an agent we trust.

Principles

How we treat homeowners.

01

One offer, one number

Most cash-buyers submit high and renegotiate down during inspection. We don't. The number we offer after walking your house is the number at the closing table — 90% of the time, tracked quarterly.

02

Every house gets walked

We don't make offers sight-unseen. A team member walks your property first, confirms the condition, and the offer reflects what we actually saw. No surprises after you sign.

03

GA-licensed brokerage

License #H-81352, Georgia Real Estate Commission. Every transaction is documented, escrowed through a licensed title company, and governed by GA real estate law. Not a wholesaler's handshake.

04

Honest no beats a fake yes

If selling to us isn't your best option, we'll tell you. Sometimes a traditional MLS listing is the better move for your situation — we'll refer you to an agent we trust if that's the case. No point wasting your time.
