FAQ

In North Carolina, a notary public must witness the grantor's signature on the deed. After the deed is notarized, it must be recorded with the Lenoir County Register of Deeds. This step officially transfers the title of the property from the grantor to the grantee.

How Long Does Closing Take? Closing on a home usually takes place 3-6 weeks after the offer is accepted. The actual closing appointment is allotted a 60 minute time slot. If both the buyer and seller are in full agreement and both understand all the documents they will be signing, then it should go quickly.

Once all preparations are in order, parties attend a closing meeting at the title company office. Legal and financial documents are signed, and ownership transferred from the seller to the buyer. Afterward, funds disbursement and keys are handed over, marking the completion of the closing process.

I want to get a copy of the deed to my land. How can I do that? Go to your Register of Deeds Office and look at the document there. Find your Register of Deeds in: Your phone book under county government. Look it up online. Many counties have their real property (land) records online. Go to the county website.

You may choose any title company you want; you don't have to use a company selected by a real estate agent, builder, or lender. Section 9 of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) prohibits sellers from conditioning the home sale on the use of a specific title insurance company.

To summarize, title is the legal concept of ownership over property. A deed is the actual document that transfers ownership rights from one party to another party. While this may seem like a subtle and highly technical difference, it is also very important.

You can go to a ``title company'' and they can do that search for you. If you choose to do it yourself, go to your local courthouse and ask for their procedure in pursuing a title search.
