You may need to speak to an attorney. Judgments in NC are automatically liens on Real property (land and homes) it he county in which the judgment was docketed. It can be docketed in numerous counties if need be. A lien cannot be obtained against personal proper (all property other than land and homes) without additional action. You need to enforce the judgment by using the execution and exemption process.
