Property Taxes
What happens if I can’t pay my property taxes by January 5 in NC?
Miss January 5 and NC adds 2% interest, then 3/4% a month. Unpaid bills can lead to lien ads, garnishment and, later, a tax foreclosure.
Divorce
Do we have to sell the house before our NC divorce is final?
No, NC does not require selling the house before the divorce is final. What matters is dividing it by agreement or a claim filed before the divorce.
Foreclosure
I got a 45-day pre-foreclosure letter. What does it mean in NC?
A 45-day letter is a warning NC law requires before a home foreclosure can be filed. It is not a court case, and it lists free help you can use.
