Well we found a place to hunt and act as vacation home. Father-in-law (who grew up in WV and go back to hunt every year) reached a handshake/verbal agreement with a family member to buy their property. Good deal too in my opinion but family is family.
I'm getting the mortgage loan (to this day, he's 74 and never had a credit card or anything under his name) and everything is good on my end. But since we are not using a realtor and I dont have any experience with WV house sale regulation, any advice? I hear it very different from other states. That lawyers are more involved. Are there still basic title company that can handle this as long as we have a sale contract? I only have experience buying house in MD, usually after a purchase agreement, the realtor did nothing except wait for their commision check.
Note: Is it true that WV laws make getting permits to built house really hard? And that's why you see alot of trailers and per-fabucated home in WV because people didnt want to go to the trouble of getting permits?
