How West Virginia Real Estate Broker license verification works

A Real Estate Broker in West Virginia is licensed by the WV Real Estate Commission. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: name license_number license_type status company_number company_name branch_number company_address email.

Board note: WV-REC-FILE: the Commission publishes no name/number lookup (apps.wv.gov REC AccessRecord wants licence number + last-4 SSN); rec.wv.gov → Active Licensee Rosters publishes three monthly .xlsx rosters (Salesperson / Associate Broker / Broker, link titles e.g. 'SP Oct2026') of every ACTIVE licensee → dataset source, roster month = data_as_of, max age 62 days. Columns Name, LicenseNumber (WV#######), LicenseType, CompanyNumber/Name, BranchNumber, Status, Email, company address. real_estate_agent = Salesperson; real_estate_broker = Broker / Associate Broker; not on the roster → not_found (inactive/expired/revoked are not listed). Appraisers (separate WV appraiser board) not covered. Live 2026-11-04.
