Useful local offices
The City of Napa and Napa County are distinct jurisdictions. The city is within Napa County, but a Napa mailing address alone does not establish whether a particular property is inside city limits. Use the property location when you contact an office.
Napa County · property assessment and assessed-value questions
For an assessment record or assessed-value question, contact the County Assessor. That is different from asking for an unpaid property-tax balance; the Tax Collector handles that account question.
707-253-4467 · contact listed by the California State Board of Equalization.
Napa County · property-tax bills and payment questions
Contact the Tax Collector about a county property-tax bill or an unpaid-tax balance for a parcel. The Assessor handles valuation and assessment records instead.
707-253-4327 · contact listed by the California State Board of Equalization.
Napa County · recorded deeds and land documents
Use the Recorder for recorded deeds and other land-document questions. A deed record is different from a court case or judgment; for those, contact the Superior Court.
The California Department of Public Health directory lists 707-253-4105 and 900 Coombs Street, Room 116, Napa, CA 94559. Treat these as contact details from the state directory; confirm current deed-counter hours and intake instructions with the County before visiting.
Napa County · probate contact and court records
For a court case or judgment, start with the Superior Court rather than the Recorder, which handles recorded land documents. The Court lists separate courthouse locations, so confirm the right facility for a particular filing or record before traveling.
Probate contact: 707-299-1130.
A California closing-cost fact
California counties charge documentary transfer tax at $0.55 per $500 of value, or fraction of $500 ($1.10 per $1,000). It applies when taxable consideration is over $100, excluding a lien or loan that remains on the property after the sale. A city may take half of the county rate as a credit against county tax, while some cities add a separate tax. State law also addresses who is responsible for the tax and allows the sale agreement to allocate the cost between buyer and seller.
Ask the title company or escrow to confirm the property’s county, any city tax, the taxable amount and the written allocation. A past-due property-tax balance is a separate question for the Tax Collector. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the county documentary transfer tax and any city transfer tax.
