Indiana property-transfer reporting

Know which filing and closing costs to ask about

Indiana requires a property-transfer filing with the county Auditor so property-tax records can be updated. The filing fee is usually $20, and some transfers are exempt. Recording and other closing charges are separate. Ask the Vanderburgh County Auditor about the filing route for your property and have the closing professional confirm the transaction’s amounts.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay a seller’s mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes.

Questions about Evansville and Vanderburgh County resources

Which Vanderburgh County office handles an assessed value?

The Vanderburgh County Assessor handles assessed value and property-assessment questions. Call (812) 435-5267. The Assessor is different from the Treasurer, who handles tax payments and balances.

Where should I ask about unpaid property taxes?

Contact the Vanderburgh County Treasurer at (812) 435-5248 about payment status, a current bill, an unpaid balance, or county tax-sale information. For the property’s assessed value, contact the Assessor instead.

Does the Recorder handle a court judgment or a deed?

The County Recorder handles recorded deeds and other land documents. For a civil case or judgment record, start with the County Clerk of the Courts at (812) 435-5160. Those are separate record systems.

Who handles property-transfer reporting in Indiana?

The Indiana property-transfer filing goes to the county Auditor for property-tax records. Vanderburgh County’s Auditor can answer questions about the local filing route; a closing professional can confirm what applies to your transaction.

Who handles permits or code questions for my house?

The City of Evansville Building Commission handles city permits, inspections, property-maintenance enforcement, and rental registration. It serves the City of Evansville, not every property in Vanderburgh County, so check the address’s jurisdiction.

What filing fee applies when an Indiana house is sold?

The Indiana property-transfer filing fee is usually $20, and some transfers are exempt. Recording and other closing charges are separate. Ask the county Auditor or closing professional about the filing and amounts for your sale.

When you buy a house, do you pay the seller’s mortgage or back taxes?

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. A seller’s mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from that promise.
