Great Information however I sent five emails to this agent. She left me hanging. I drove from CA to WV to see these properties in person. After four days I had to pick another company to make my purchase. I was disappointed with this company. Great KZbin channel just would recommend attempting doing a property deal with a more professional company. Thanks Erika and EXP

I apologize, that would never be my intention. I did not receive any emails, calls or text. I would have responded promptly.

I have searched everything. Please message me and let me know how you tried to contact me. I cannot find anything. I would love to prevent this from happening in the future. Sorry again.

They really need to change the lake's name...

So I did some research to see why it was called Cheat Lake: While it’s easy to find the source for the name “Lake Lynn” (a nearby community built by the power company), the origin for “Cheat River” is lost in history. In it’s entry for Cheat Lake, “The West Virginia Encyclopedia” reads: “Roots of laurel and hardwood leaves tint the water, hiding sharp rocks and treacherous currents. This lead to drownings which some say caused settlers who began to live along its banks before the American Revolution to say the river ‘cheated’ people of their lives.” “Others think it was named for the cheat grass that sprang up in newly cleared lands, or for an early French settler, or from a word of Indian origins.”
