The County tax stamps or transfer taxes are part of the selling expense used to reduce gain.
If you are asking if the sale is reported on both federal and state the answer is yes, if you do not meet the home sale exclusion rules. If you meet the home sale exclusion then the gain is not reported on the federal return and in turn is not reported on NC.
The property taxes paid at closing, shown on your HUD-1 statement, are a deductible itemized deduction.
If
you made money on the sale of your house, we can help you find out if
this profit is tax-free, up to $250,000 ($500,000 for
married filing jointly). In your case you would each report half of the
sale, purchase price, sales and purchase expenses.
