    GENERAL INFORMATION: WV Mortgage Foreclosure Data

    WEST VIRGINIA MORTGAGE FORECLOSURE DATA
    FOR 2007 AND 2008

    Mortgage foreclosures in West Virginia during 2008 were 12% higher than the state's total for 2007 according to data released by the state Division of Banking. The Division conducted a county by county survey of foreclosures to obtain accurate data for those years.

    According to the survey, a total of 2,296 foreclosures occurred in 2007 and 2,577 in 2008. Significant increases in counties such as Berkeley and Jefferson more than offset decreases in other populous counties such as Cabell and Kanawha in the years examined.

    A copy of the data is provided below. Please note that the spreadsheet is the result of an informal project conducted by the Division of Banking and intended to provide more accurate data for analysis of West Virginia foreclosure activity for 2007 and 2008. The data has not been independently verified by a third party. In some cases, foreclosure sales held during the time period under review have not been filed with the appropriate County Clerk and are not included in the data provided. Consistency in names has been provided where possible.
