Useful offices

Mecklenburg County records: start with the right office

Tax bills, recorded land instruments, court files, and county parcel maps are different records. Use the office that handles the record you need, and confirm property-specific questions with the office or a closing professional.

Mecklenburg County Clerk of Superior Court

Mecklenburg County · court and Estates contact routing

Use the North Carolina Judicial Branch county page to find current courthouse and Clerk contacts for court-record, judgment, and Estates questions. A court record is a different search from a recorded deed or other land instrument.

Mecklenburg County Register of Deeds

Mecklenburg County · recorded real-estate instruments

Use the Register of Deeds to record, index, or retrieve submitted real-estate instruments, including deeds. For a court judgment or court-file question, use the Clerk of Superior Court contact directory instead.

A North Carolina sale cost

What the deed excise tax means when you sell

North Carolina charges an excise tax when a deed transfers real estate: $1 for each $500 of the sale price or value, with any part of $500 counted as a full $500. That is $200 on a $100,000 sale. State law assigns payment to the seller before the deed is recorded, and the Register of Deeds marks the deed to show it was paid.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including North Carolina's excise tax on conveyances. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate. Ask the closing professional to show the tax and the other property-specific amounts in the settlement figures.
