I am a VA resident who has recently sold inherited property. I have a 1099-S from NC. Do I need to file a NC tax return? VA will tax me on the capital gain.

Yes, because the land was located in North Carolina, you would most likely have to file a return there.  You are correct, also that you are taxed by Virginia-- but Virginia will give you a credit for any taxes you pay to NC so you will not be double-taxed at the state level for the same income.
