Local records and offices
Property valuation, unpaid taxes, recorded deeds, and court judgments are separate questions. Start with the county shown on the parcel record or notice, and use that county’s office links below.
Riley County parcels · assessed values and property valuation
For a property in Riley County, start here with assessed-value and appraisal questions. An assessed value is a county record, not a sale offer or a guarantee of what one buyer will pay.
Riley County parcels · property-tax account questions
Use the Treasurer’s county resource for a Riley County property-tax account. Check the parcel and ask the office about the current balance or payment status; an assessed value and an unpaid-tax balance are different records.
Riley County parcels · recorded deeds and land records
Use the Register of Deeds for recorded deed and land-record questions about a Riley County property. Deed records do not answer an appraisal or tax-balance question.
Pottawatomie County parcels · recorded deeds and land records
For a Pottawatomie County property, use that county’s Register of Deeds for deed-record questions. Use the official county directory to confirm current contact details.
Pottawatomie County parcels · valuation and unpaid property-tax questions
Use the official county directory to find the current office for a Pottawatomie County parcel’s assessed value or tax balance. Do not assume a Riley County office handles a parcel in Pottawatomie County.
Riley or Pottawatomie County · court cases and judgments
A court judgment is not a deed. Use the county named in the case or notice to find the appropriate court contact, then ask a title professional whether a specific judgment affects the property.
Kansas sale costs
Kansas does not charge a real-estate transfer tax or deed tax. The state’s mortgage registration tax ended January 1, 2019. Recording a deed or mortgage still has a county fee set by state law: $21 for the first page and $17 for each additional page. The number of recorded pages changes the total, so ask the title company or closing professional to confirm the charges for your documents.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
