Mortgage foreclosure surplus
W. Va. Code § 38-1-7(a) governs deed-of-trust proceeds, paying expenses and secured obligations before surplus goes to the grantor, heirs, personal representatives, successors or assigns as their interests appear. Section 38-1-7 sets no special initial grantor surplus deadline. Contact the trustee promptly for accounting and payment. A withheld-funds action requires case-specific limitations analysis.
