Helpful local details

Check the county and the costs separately

Gary is in Lake County

Gary’s incorporated-place boundary is in Lake County only; nearby Porter County is not a county Gary spans. If the property is outside Gary, check the parcel’s county before relying on a county office link here.

Property taxes and closing costs are different

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate. Call the Lake County Treasurer about the parcel tax account, and ask your closing professional to show the property-specific amounts.

Gary and Lake County resource questions

Which county serves properties inside Gary?

Gary’s incorporated-place boundary is in Lake County only; Gary does not span into nearby Porter County. For a property outside Gary, check its parcel and county before using a county office link.

Which office handles an assessed value or property-tax balance?

Contact the Lake County Assessor at (219) 755-3100 about assessment and assessed-value records. For a property-tax account or statement, contact the Lake County Treasurer at (219) 881-6300. Those are separate records and tasks.

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

Use the Lake County Recorder at (219) 755-3730 for recorded deeds and public land records. A court judgment is a court-record question, not a deed search; follow the court and case details on the judgment or notice, then ask a title professional how it relates to the property.
