Start here
Hammond is in Tangipahoa Parish, but City and Parish offices handle different work. Use the property address and the record or notice in front of you: the Assessor handles valuation, the Sheriff collects property taxes, and the Clerk of Court keeps separate land-record and civil-filing routes. Verify the parcel-specific city or Parish contact before relying on a general location label.
Local records and offices
Bring the property address, parcel information, case number, or current notice when you contact an office. Ask it to confirm the record or balance for that property.
Tangipahoa Parish · property assessment and parcel lookup
Use the Assessor for assessed-value questions and to look up parcel information. Property-tax collection is a different job handled by the Sheriff’s Office.
Hammond substation: 985-345-6226.
Tangipahoa Parish · property-tax payments and balances
Use the Sheriff’s tax-payment route to check payment instructions or ask about a parcel’s property-tax balance. The Assessor handles valuation; the Sheriff collects property taxes.
Tangipahoa Parish · recorded deeds, mortgages, and land records
Use this department for recorded deeds, mortgages, and other land-record documents. Its online index is not searchable by street address; start with the Assessor’s parcel lookup if you only have an address.
Tangipahoa Parish · successions and other civil filings
For a succession or a civil court filing or case record, start with the Civil Department. A court-case question is separate from a deed search, an assessed value, and a tax balance.
Civil Department: 985-284-2610. The Clerk also lists a Hammond office at 318-A NW Railroad Avenue, Hammond, LA 70401 · 985-549-1638.
City of Hammond · city permits and code questions
For a property inside Hammond city limits, contact the City about permits or a code-enforcement notice. City requirements are separate from Parish offices; check the actual property address before relying on a city contact.
219 E. Robert Street, Hammond, LA 70401 · Code Enforcement: 985-277-5642.
Mapped Hammond historic districts · local maps and review contact
If you are planning work on a property in a mapped historic district, check the address against the City’s separate district maps and contact the Commission about the applicable review.
Louisiana facts to check
Louisiana’s basic statutory fee to record a document of one to five pages is $100. More pages, extra indexed names, and other services can add charges. Ask the Clerk of Court or your closing professional for the amount that applies to the deed being recorded.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Hammond publishes separate maps for its local Historic, National Register, Cultural, and Downtown Development districts. If you are planning work on a property that may be in a district, check the address against the relevant map and ask the Commission about review before planning the work.
