Any Condition

No repairs needed

About Cleveland County

Selling a house in Cleveland County

Cleveland County covers Shelby and Kings Mountain, west of Gaston County and about 30 to 45 minutes from Charlotte.

Shelby, the county seat, was agricultural until the railways arrived in the 1870s, then turned to cotton — production peaked at 83,549 bales in 1948 before declining from the 1950s. Earl Scruggs and Don Gibson both came from the town.

Kings Mountain was called White Plains until it was renamed for the 1780 battle Jefferson called the turning point of the Revolution. Its Margrace Mill Village is a National Register district.

Deeds are recorded at the Cleveland County Register of Deeds, 311 E. Marion Street, Shelby — 704.484.4834.

What that means if you are selling

This county’s housing was built for a cotton economy that peaked in 1948 and then left. Much of the stock dates from that period and has been maintained unevenly in the seventy years since.

Kings Mountain also straddles the Cleveland-Gaston line, so two houses a few streets apart can have different tax bills, different deed offices and different courthouses.

We buy across both towns and on either side of that line, as-is, and we pay the closing costs.

The paperwork side, here in Cleveland County

Every county handles deeds, estates and foreclosure slightly differently. Here is where things actually happen if your sale involves any of them.

DEEDS & TITLE

Cleveland County Register of Deeds, 311 E. Marion Street, Shelby · 704.484.4834

If you have inherited a property here, the deed history sits with the Register of Deeds and the estate is administered through Shelby.

FORECLOSURE & TAX

North Carolina uses non-judicial power-of-sale foreclosure, heard by the Clerk of Superior Court, and the sale itself is held at the county courthouse in Shelby.

Unpaid property tax and estate matters are both handled through Shelby rather than through the town you live in.

Public information, correct at the time of writing — always confirm current details with the county office directly.

Delinquent from 6 JanuaryInterest runs at two percent for the period to 1 February.
