Questions answered? Let's get started!
A grant deed can be used in North Carolina to transfer title to real property. This type of deed falls between a warranty deed and a quitclaim deed.
In a grant deed, the seller (grantor) warrants that the property is free from any encumbrances except those that have been previously disclosed to the buyer (grantee). The seller also guarantees that he does in fact hold title to the property and has the right to convey it to the buyer.
A grant deed must be signed and properly acknowledged by the grantor before an officer authorized by the state to take acknowledgments of deeds. Section 47-38 of the North Carolina General Statutes provides an individual form for acknowledgement by a grantor. If a deed has been executed and acknowledged in a state other than North Carolina, the deed must conform to North Carolina law in order to be recorded in this state. Grant deeds must be executed and acknowledged in strict compliance with the North Carolina acknowledgment provisions in order to be recorded and to provide constructive notice.
North Carolina has a pure race recording statute. No conveyance of land in this state will be valid to pass any property interest as against lien creditors or purchasers for a valuable consideration from the donor, bargainer, or lesser but from the time it is registered in the county where the land lies, or if the land is in more than one county, until the conveyance is registered in each such county. Unless it is otherwise stated on the grant deed or on a separate registered instrument executed by the party whose priority interest is adversely affected, instruments registered in the office of the register of deeds will have priority based on the order of registration as determined by the time of registration. If instruments are registered simultaneously, then priority is determined by the earliest document number set forth on the registered instrument or the sequential book and page number (47 18).

The forms are very confusing when there is so much to download! Trying to keep track and make sure you have everything needed is terrible! I think I have everything but I was under the impression I would be filling it out online and with instructions... I am very disappointed to say the least!
Sorry to hear of your disappointment Helen. We have gone ahead and canceled your order and payment. We do hope that you are able to find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

Your Transfer on Death Deed is fine and you have plenty of information about that part. But where is the Confirmatory Deed that is required in many jurisdictions in order to actually pass ownership of a property when the Transfer on Death Deed becomes effective? IT IS MISSING!!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

For better grammatical structure you should add the word "BE" after the first three words.... Your review may ..... BE....displayed.
Thanks for letting us know!

My goal was to find the Covenant, Conditions, and Restrictions for my HOA. From what I can read, these documents should be attached to our Deed (single family, patio home in New Hanover County). I am not sure if I have a copy of my Deed. I would need to check my Safe Deposit Box. Unfortunately, I was not successful at finding these documents from your Website. If you can help me find them, I would appreciate that.
It is most common to obtain a copy of CC&Rs directly from the HOA. Alternatively, they are also usually a matter of public record recorded with the local recorder and you can obtain a copy there.
