Property valuation, property-tax payments, recorded deeds, court filings, and foreclosure information come from different offices. Use the section that matches the question or notice you have, then check address-specific details with the responsible office.
Local offices
The Assessor handles valuation records; the Sheriff and Tax Collector has the property-tax payment route; the Clerk of Court maintains recording and court-record paths. Those records answer different questions.
East Baton Rouge Parish · assessments and property records
Use the Assessor for assessed value and assessment-record questions. An assessment is not the Sheriff’s current property-tax balance or payment record.
225-389-3920 · 222 St. Louis Street, Baton Rouge, LA 70802.
East Baton Rouge Parish · property-tax payments and foreclosure case information
Use the Sheriff’s property-tax route for tax-account payment information. The Sheriff’s separate Civil Process/Foreclosure system provides posted case information; a portal result does not decide a property’s exact balance, case status, or deadline.
East Baton Rouge Parish · recorded deeds and other land documents
Use Recording for a deed or another recorded land document. A recorded deed is a different record from an assessment, tax account, or civil-court filing.
225-389-3985 · City Hall, Room 152, Baton Rouge.
East Baton Rouge Parish · civil-suit and probate record routes
Use Suit Records to look for civil-case or probate filings. Finding a case record does not by itself show whether a judgment affects a particular house; have the property-specific title question checked.
225-389-3972 · 19th JDC Courthouse, Room 3310, Baton Rouge.
Baton Rouge City-Parish · permits, inspections, and code questions
The City-Parish division handles residential and commercial improvement permits, code inspections, and code enforcement. Check the actual address with the City-Parish for a specific permit, inspection, or notice; nearby municipalities may have separate offices.
Louisiana selling cost
Louisiana sets a basic $100 fee to record a one-to-five-page document. More pages, additional indexed names, and other services can add charges, so ask the East Baton Rouge Clerk of Court or closing professional about the actual deed and recording total.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
