What is the West Virginia Housing Fund Fee?

  • Updated

In 2001, the West Virginia Legislature created the Affordable Housing Fund, firstly, to provide funding for both technical assistance and housing assistance to non-profits and government entities, and, secondly, to encourage stronger partnerships, collaboration and greater involvement of local communities in meeting housing needs in West Virginia.

Solely for the benefit of governments, 501c3 non-profits, and public housing authorities, the Affordable Housing Fund receives a $20 transfer fee from residential real estate transfers and the sale of manufactured homes.

When quoting fees in LodeStar, the $20 WV Housing Fund Fee is bundled into Deed Fee, as follows:
