Sandy River Parcel May Transfer to WVTB LLC Unless Redeemed
A delinquent tax publication notice filed in mid November shows WVTB LLC purchased a Sandy River district parcel at the June 25, 2025 delinquent tax sale, and the purchaser plans to take a deed on or after May 1, 2026 unless the property is redeemed. The notice lists a total redemption amount of $1,795.65 and reminds owners that primary residence protections may allow incremental payments through the State Auditor.
McDowell County published a delinquent tax redemption notice on November 17, 2025 indicating that WVTB LLC is the purchaser of property offered at the June 25, 2025 delinquent tax sale. The sale is recorded under Cert. No. 2024 C 000467 for a parcel in the Sandy River district identified as MAP 302 / PARCEL 0045 0004 0000.
According to the notice, the property was returned delinquent or non entered in the name of Larry Davis and Tressa McClanahan. WVTB LLC has requested formal notice that a deed will be made on or after May 1, 2026 unless the property is redeemed prior to that date. The notice was signed November 5, 2025 and bears the signature line Given under my hand.
The publication itemizes the amounts required for redemption and lists a Total Amount Due of $1,795.65. That figure includes tax year charges, auditor certification and publication fees, and title examination, publication and service fees. The notice also states that contact information for redemption is provided in the filing, giving owners a path to pay the amounts and stop a deed from being issued.
For McDowell County residents the notice is a reminder of the practical consequences of unpaid property taxes. When a parcel is sold for delinquent taxes the purchaser gains the right to obtain title by deed if the owner does not redeem the property within the statutory period. Even relatively modest sums can lead to the loss of property if action is not taken in time.
The notice reiterates an important option for owners whose real estate serves as their primary residence. In such cases the owner may petition the State Auditor for incremental redemption payments. That provision can provide a more manageable route for homeowners to redeem property over time rather than paying the full redemption amount at once.
Property owners who believe they are affected should review the county filing for full contact and payment details and act before May 1, 2026 to protect ownership. The notice in this instance underscores how local tax administration, statutory redemption rights and procedural deadlines intersect to affect households across the county.
