Tax Lien in North Carolina

[Louise Whidby]

Does anyone know how I can obtain a Tax lien list in Wilmington, NC? I will be moving to Wilmington, NC soon

@Louise Whidby many of the counties list them on their website; they are also published in the newspapers in other areas; and you can go to the county clerks office as well. Note that counties in NC do not sell tax lien certificates, rather the tax authority has the right to foreclose and sell the property at a tax foreclosure auction to redeem delinquent taxes. The winning bid is then subject to a 10 day upset bid period. There are investors in my area that do tax lien certificates but they travel to other states like Georgia.
