The county Register of Deeds has it. It's a public document, but you may
have to go to the county office to see it.
Durham County has it on it's web site:
http://www.co.durham.nc.us/ (select
"Public Records Databases"). Orange may as well.

This topic has come up a few times before -- I have been driving past a
house that looks abandoned but has a bit of a garden and want to
transplant some flowers. There isn't a construction sign or such: is there
a city government office that could tell me who holds the deed to the
house? I think it must have been a foreclosure or bankruptcy or something
since I the house hasn't been for sale...
Any ideas?
