How selling land works in North Carolina

A few North Carolina rules shape every land sale. None of them needs sorting out before you ask for an offer, but it helps to know them.

Closings are handled by attorneys

In North Carolina, a licensed real estate attorney runs the closing: the title search, the deed and the recording. We use a licensed NC attorney for every purchase, and we pay standard closing costs.

There is a state excise tax on the deed

North Carolina charges an excise tax of $1 for every $500 of the sale price when the deed is recorded (G.S. 105-228.30). It is customarily a seller's cost, and your closing statement shows it.

Septic permits come from the county health department

If a lot has no public sewer, whether it can hold a house depends on a septic permit issued by the county health department under state rules (NC On-Site Water Protection). Land that has not been perc-tested can still be sold; the test result mostly affects the price.

Present-use value land can owe deferred taxes

Farm, forest and horticultural land enrolled in the present-use value program is taxed at a lower value. If it leaves the program when it is sold, the deferred taxes for the current year and the three previous years usually come due (G.S. 105-277.4).

Inherited land often has several owners

When land passes without a will, every heir usually owns a share (NC Intestate Succession Act), and all of them generally need to sign the deed. We buy heirs' property regularly and the closing attorney coordinates the signatures. How selling inherited land works ›

Back taxes are a lien, not a dead end

Unpaid county property taxes are a lien on the land, and counties can foreclose on it (G.S. 105-374). Back taxes are normally paid off out of the sale price at closing, so you do not have to find the money first.
