Complaint Review: Jim Walter Homes - Fredericksburg Virginia

I WAS READING THE RESPONSE ABOUT JWH NOT BEING LICENSED IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. WE TOO,UNFORTUNATELY, LIVE IN A JWH. I WAS JUST WONDERING HOW TO GO ABOUT GETTING THE CORPORATED ID # AND THE BUILDERS LICENSE #? IT SEEMS AS IF OUR HOUSE PAYMENT IS NOT IN THEIR OFFICE THE DAY BEFORE IT'S DUE THEN THEY ARE ON THE PHONE "HARRASSING" US AND I WANT TO KNOW IF WE SHOULD EVEN BE PAYING THEM ONE PENNY-IF THEY'RE NOT LICENSED! PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I CAN GET THESE NUMBERS AND GET TO THE STATE CORP. SITE SO I TOO CAN LOOK THEM UP.

DEAR JOHN, I TOO WAS IN THE SAME SHOES WITH THE PERMITS AND WITH THE HEALTH PERMITS ETC. I WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT I ASKED THEM IF I COULD CANCEL MY CONTRACT AND THEY TOLD ME YES. THEY HAD NOT STARTED BUILDING YET. SO I WROTE THEM A CHECK FOR THE PERMITS THAT THEY DID PULL AND ABOUT 20 DAYS LATER, I GOT MY SATISFACTION OF MORTAGE. I WENT TO A MORTAGE COMPANY RIGHT AFTER AND GOT APPROVED FOR A BETTER BUILT AND BIGGER HOUSE. I WOULD DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN AT YOUR STAGE TO GET OUT OF THIS COMPANY. BEST OF LUCK

I was doing research on another company on the State Corporation Web site yesterday and decided to see if Jim Walter Homes, Inc. was listed as being an incorporated business here in Virginia, I could not get a hit on this business nor the other name they go by Mid State Homes. I then checked with Virginia's Occupational Licensing Board, this is all on the internet free to do, and they do not have a license as a contractor nor a builder here in Virginia. I would get these two numbers from them immediately. Go to the State Corportation Web site and enter that number and make sure it is valid. If not, file a complaint immediately. Do the same for Virginia Occupational Licensing. It is illegal here in the state of Virginia to claim to be incorporated and do business here if you do not register with the SCC. Also, they need to hold a license here in Virginia to build your house or you do not have to pay them one single cent for the home! Please check this out before giving them anymore money. This company very well maybe illegally practicing business here in Virginia. Don't let them get away with it!
