Local records and offices

Ashland and Boyd County offices: what each one handles

City and county tax questions are not the same. Check the parcel and the notice, then use the office listed for that task. The offices below serve Ashland or Boyd County as noted.

Boyd County Property Valuation Administrator

Boyd County · property valuation and assessment questions

Use the PVA for assessed value, assessment records, and property-valuation questions. An assessment is not a title review, a tax-balance answer, or a conclusion about a sale price.

2800 Louisa Street, Catlettsburg.

Boyd County Sheriff's Office

Boyd County · current-year county property-tax collection

Boyd County lists the Sheriff's Office as the contact for current-year county property-tax collection. For prior-year delinquent county taxes, the County Clerk is the separate route.

Use the official county page for the current contact details and property-tax instructions.

Boyd County Clerk

Boyd County · recorded land documents, wills, and prior-year delinquent county taxes

Use the County Clerk for recorded land documents and will recording. The county also directs prior-year delinquent county property-tax questions to this office; current-year county tax collection is handled by the Sheriff.

Ashland Office: 1505 Carter Avenue, Suite 100, Ashland. Main Office: 2800 Louisa Street, Catlettsburg. Confirm service availability and hours with the Clerk.

City of Ashland Finance / Customer Service

City of Ashland · city property-tax billing questions

Use the City for Ashland city-tax billing questions. The City routes the exemption or mailing-address questions identified on its tax page to the Boyd County PVA; a city bill and a county assessment are separate matters.

Use the City tax page for the appropriate contact route.

Kentucky rule to check

Confirm the Kentucky real estate transfer tax before closing

Kentucky charges 50 cents for each $500 of value, or fraction of $500. The seller (called the grantor in the statute) is responsible, and the county clerk collects the tax before the deed can be recorded. The value includes the full price paid, including liens the buyer takes over. Recording fees are separate. Some transfers are exempt, so ask the title company to confirm the tax and any exemption for your deed.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Kentucky real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate items.

Where do I look for a deed or a court judgment?

Use the Boyd County Clerk for recorded land documents such as deeds. For county court-case records, contact the Boyd County Office of the Circuit Court Clerk. These records answer different questions; a title professional can review what they mean for a specific property.
