The Right Channel for Every Question

countytaxassessor.org/ is editorial. We cannot pull county property records, perform title searches, file assessment appeals on your behalf, or provide FCRA-regulated services. This page sets out exactly what we can help with, what we cannot, and where to send each kind of question.

What We Can Help With

  • Corrections to any county Assessor or Tax Collector URL, exemption procedure, appeal deadline, walkthrough step, address, or phone number on the site
  • Reports of broken county portal links — top-priority correction queue
  • Reports of exemption procedures or appeal deadlines that do not match the county’s current published page
  • Privacy and data-rights requests under CCPA/CPRA, TDPSA, VCDPA, CPA, CTDPA, UCPA, FDBR, OCPA, and other U.S. state privacy laws
  • Cookie preferences and Global Privacy Control questions
  • Accessibility issues and reports of barriers using assistive technology
  • DMCA copyright notices and counter-notices
  • Press inquiries about the site, methodology, or editorial decisions
  • Editorial questions about specific county guides, methodology, or sourcing
  • Notification of Assessor or Treasurer changes, board changes, portal redesigns, or major procedural changes after a state legislative session

What We Cannot Help With

  • Pulling county property records — every record is held by the county Assessor or Tax Collector; access is through the county’s own portal
  • Performing title searches or providing title-insurance data — title work is licensed activity in every state
  • Tenant-screening, employment background checks, credit decisions, insurance underwriting, or any FCRA-permissible-purpose request — we are not a CRA and any such request is rejected
  • Filing assessment appeals on your behalf — that requires state-specific licensure (TDLR in Texas, comparable bodies in other states), or representation by an attorney, or by the property owner directly
  • Interpreting whether you specifically qualify for residence homestead, over-65, disabled, disabled veteran, surviving spouse, agricultural-use, or any other exemption — consult the county Assessor or a state-licensed property tax consultant
  • Predicting whether your appeal will succeed — depends on county-specific evidence and the appeal body’s discretion
  • Resolving boundary disputes, easement questions, or zoning matters — those go to the county and a real estate attorney
  • Property tax bill, payment plan, installment plan, or delinquency questions for a specific account — those go to your county Tax Collector / Treasurer
  • Deed copies, deed history, lien searches — those go to the County Recorder, County Clerk, or Registrar of Deeds (separate office from both Assessor and Tax Collector in most states)
  • Adding paid placement, “preferred listings,” or sponsored county guide content — we do not accept paid placement
  • Legal advice on any property matter — consult an attorney licensed in your state
  • Financial or tax advice — consult a CPA, a state-licensed property tax consultant, or an attorney
