They can do so if they are not breaking a lock or damaging property in the process. They may not enter a private residence. They must cease if told to do so, otherwise the repossession becomes non-peaceful and may be illegal. If in doubt, call the police, do NOT start an altercation or you may be held responsible.

Can the state of North Carolina charge for personal property when they repossess your car?
The state doesn't repossess your car - private companies do that on behalf of the lienholder. They don't charge you for private property left in your car when they repossess it - that would be illegal. They charge a "storage fee" for the items they remove from your car. Underhanded, yes, but they can legally do it.

What is a reo property?
REO (Real Estate Owned) is a class of property owned by a lender, typically a bank, after an unsuccessful sale at a foreclosure auction. A bank will typically set the opening bid at a foreclosure auction for at least the outstanding loan amount. If there are no bidders that are interested, then the bank will legally repossess the property. This is usually the case as the amount owed on the home is probably higher than the value of this foreclosure property. As soon as the bank repossess the property, it is listed on their books as REO, and is categorized as an asset (non-performing).
