West Virginia (WV) property records data
~810k residential parcels in West Virginia on our national assessor and recorder file, with owner, mailing address, structure characteristics, values, sales and liens keyed to the parcel. Fill rates below are measured on the September 2026 snapshot, residential parcels as the denominator.
Field fill rates in West Virginia
The share of residential parcels in West Virginia on which each field is populated. Owner name, mailing address, lot size, assessed value and coordinates are filled on effectively every parcel nationally and are omitted. The structure fields are the ones that vary, because they come from county field cards that not every county publishes.

What the West Virginia file is used for
- Loading the state into a warehouse or product under a bulk license
- Owner and mailing-address appends for West Virginia addresses
- Insurance underwriting inputs where the structure fields are filled, with the roof field supplemented from permit history because West Virginia counties publish it on under 5% of parcels
- Purchase, refinance and new-homeowner triggers from the recorder side of the file
West Virginia counties publish very few roof and construction codes. Year built and living area are partly covered, and roof age for West Virginia is best taken from permit history where a roofing permit exists.
