We Buy Houses Across West Virginia

West Virginia uses a non-judicial process — no courtroom required, typically taking 2 to 4 months from the first missed payments to a completed sale. West Virginia trustee sales require notice to the homeowner just 20 days before sale and publication for two weeks — a fast, court-free process.

West Virginia provides no post-sale redemption on trust-deed foreclosures. If you're behind on payments anywhere in West Virginia, the earlier you act, the more equity and options you keep.

West Virginia probate runs through the county commission/fiduciary supervisor; claims stay open 60-90 days. Fractured mineral-rights and heir-property issues are a recurring title complication. For heirs, the practical takeaway: expect roughly 6 to 12 months of administration for an estate with a house — and know that in most cases the property can be sold during that window rather than after it.

West Virginia's transfer tax is $1.10 per $500 state plus at least $0.55 county (about 0.33% combined), paid by the seller. In a typical network cash sale, the buyer covers standard closing costs and there are no commissions — so the offer you accept is very close to the number on your settlement statement.
