Property Tax Information is just a Click Away

Many people do not realize the depth of information that is available on their property by searching  online line records that are available through their county clerk, county appraisal  district, and county tax assessor.  This information can be very useful in searching property taxes, liens, tax history, ownership transfers, and assessed valuations.

Public filings, that include deed transfers, mortgages, liens and estate filings can be obtained through searching the online records of  the county in which the  property is located. You can find your  county clerk’s online records by searching  for your county’s clerk office in your search engine. (example  – “Dallas County Clerk Records ”).  Most clerk sites contained a complete index and printable copies of all legal documents recorded against you and your property. 

Your counties appraisal district and tax assessor’s website can be located by searching  “your county” appraisal district or “your county” tax collector. Most appraisal district sites provide details on property tax assessments, property improvements, ownership transfers, and assessment history. This link also contains the Web addresses of most major Texas Tax Assessor sites.
