Amending the duties of a purchaser to secure a deed
HB 2660 requires buyers of properties sold at tax auctions (by the West Virginia Auditor for unpaid taxes) to pay off any city or town tax liens before receiving a deed. Purchasers must provide the Auditor with certified proof that the lien has been satisfied by the local government. This ensures local government claims are resolved before property ownership transfers. The bill directly affects tax sale buyers and municipalities that issue lien satisfaction records.
