Real Estate Tac Auction question

So, I've been looking at a lakefront lot for months (actually offered on it twice). However, the owners, despite having bought it at a foreclosure auction and the property having sat for sale for 390 days, refuse to negotiate on the price. Whatever. So, a virtually identical property right across the lake is coming up for sale at a county tax auction the week after next. It will be conveyed by Special Warranty Deed, and the auction house is advising a title search before bidding.

Two questions here: What are the pitfalls of a Special Warranty Deed?, and Is there any difference between my paying a title company to do a title search and my going to the local courthouse to research the chain of property ownership? I've done it before for other properties, and the records at that courthouse are still all in actual Deed books, so tedious to look up, but free for me.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
