Looking to Buy Land in West Virginia
I'm currently in looking at buying land in the Berkeley Springs area of West Virginia...Mostly as an investment, but potentially as a building lot. I do not know much about the area, but am looking to hear what people have to say about it. Any information would be great! Thanks!

I don't know about Berkeley Springs but I know a guy selling a 1.5 acre lot in Charles Town if you're interested.

Berkeley Springs is a nice little town. I would mostly consider an area where the old hippies hang out. I don't want to offend anyone but that is what it reminds me of kind of a yuppie type town. I don't think you would go wrong with the area. We have property in Paw Paw, 24 miles from Berkeley Springs.

I have been telling my clients to buy in WV and Shenandoah for a long time now. Just give it time and the investment will definitely pay off. If you have any investment financing questions feel free to email. It is a tricky market especially for non owner occupied property.
