Location to Find Landlord / Tenant Laws for North Carolina

BP'ers,

I am new to the game in the NC territory for landlording and I am wondering if someone can point me in the direction to find the landlord tenant laws for NC?  I went on the North Carolina General Assembly and found some information but am wondering if this is the only law that I should be concerned with.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

Shaun

Hi @Shaun Palmer

This page summaries NC state laws and also provides the links to the actual statutes: https://www.landlordology.com/north-carolina-landl...

I hope that helps!

i also recommend www.nolo.com which has a ton of information and slecific, current laws by state. They have a book called "Every Landlord's Legal Guide to Managing Property" and it is one of the single best books you could buy as a new Landlord. I bought it with my first investment property and bought an updated version six years later when I became a REALTOR. It does a great job of covering marketing, screening, managing, contracts, state laws, Federal laws, and more. I believe they still include a lot of forms that come in handy.

I just searched the NC statutes for a client and found a nice succinct summary at the Depmt. of Justice webpage.
