Useful offices
Assessed value, an unpaid tax balance, a recorded deed, and a court judgment are different questions. Use the property address and the notice or record in front of you when contacting an office.
Independence County · assessed value and parcel records
Use the Assessor for a property’s assessed value, assessment record, or parcel-roll question. Assessment is different from paying a tax bill, checking a deed, or looking up a court judgment.
Courthouse Annex, 110 Broad Street, Batesville, AR 72501 · 870-793-8842.
Independence County · property-tax collection and payment records
Contact the Tax Collector about real- or personal-property tax bills, payment records, and a parcel’s tax balance. The county lists city taxes and special assessments among the collections handled there as well.
Courthouse Annex, 110 Broad Street, Batesville, AR 72501 · 870-793-8823.
Arkansas · tax-delinquent property and public-auction information
Use the Commissioner of State Lands for Arkansas tax-delinquent-property, public-auction, post-auction, and parcel-mapping information. This is a tax-delinquent property process, separate from a mortgage foreclosure; check the actual parcel and notice for its status.
Use the state’s current property and auction resources for the parcel in question.
Independence County · court records and recorded land documents
The Circuit Clerk handles court-record questions and serves as the county recorder for documents such as deeds, mortgages, liens, and plats. Use this office for a recorded document or court-file question; an assessment or tax payment question goes to a different office.
County Courthouse, 192 E. Main Street, Batesville, AR 72501 · 870-793-8833.
Independence County · probate court and estate-file records
Use the County Clerk’s probate-court and estate-file route to locate county estate filings. The clerk’s records can help you find the file; the will, appointment, any court order, and title determine who may sign a sale.
County Courthouse, 192 E. Main Street, Batesville, AR 72501 · 870-793-8828.
City of Batesville · permits, inspections, zoning, and code resources
For a property inside Batesville city limits, use the City’s page for permit applications, building and inspection resources, zoning materials, and flood-protection information. Check the address and any actual notice with the City; county addresses outside city limits may have a different local route.
City Hall, 500 E. Main Street. Office: 870-698-2456. The City directs permit and application questions to 870-698-2400, extensions 131 or 132.
Helpful Arkansas rules
In Arkansas, a personal representative may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants a power of sale. Without that authority, the representative generally must ask the probate court for an order authorizing the sale. Ask the County Clerk how to locate the estate file, then check the will, appointment, any court order, and title to find out who may sign.
Arkansas applies its Real Property Transfer Tax to a deed or other writing conveying real estate. The rate is $3.30 per $1,000 of actual consideration for transactions exceeding $100. The settlement agent should confirm the applicable document, consideration, exemption, and local charges for your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Arkansas Real Property Transfer Tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
