Help w/ courthouse search!

I live in NC and some of the documents that I’m looking at in the Register of Deeds office are confusing. What exactly am I looking for if I want to search for “seller carry-backs” and atleast 12 months old? I see all these different deeds and I’m new to this, so is there a specific deed I should be looking for? And what is the title of the note holder that I need to contact?(i.e., Grantor,Grantee, Trustor, Trustee, Beneficiary, Borrower,etc.)

Thanks, because I have been to the Register of Deeds several times and am frustrated looking at so many documents not knowing exactly what I’m looking for on these docs!

Howdy Birddogginit:

Two documents are used to sell and finance the sale. A deed the seller signs as grantor. When a deed of trust is used the buyer is the grantor deeding the property to a trustee who has certain duties to help collect the money for the beneficiary (seller).

There could be other situations where the seller is a trustee of a trust and selling and financing but they would still be the grantor on the deed and the beneficiary on the deed of trust.
