Find the right help
The county Appraiser, Treasurer, and Register of Deeds handle different kinds of questions. Use the property address and the notice or record in front of you. These offices serve Franklin County; use each official page for its own contact details.
Franklin County · property-appraisal context
Start here with a county property-appraisal question. The Appraiser is the county appraisal office; its general information is not a value conclusion for one house sale.
Official Franklin County page ↗Franklin County · tax-office contact reference
For a question about unpaid property taxes, use the County Treasurer page as a contact starting point and ask about the specific parcel. This page does not state a balance or payment procedure.
Official Franklin County page ↗Franklin County · land-record and deed context
Use this county land-record office for deed and property-record context. A deed record is different from a property appraisal, a tax balance, or a court judgment.
Official Franklin County page ↗A Kansas rule to know
Kansas does not charge a real-estate transfer tax or deed tax. The state's mortgage registration tax ended on January 1, 2019. A recorded deed or mortgage still has a recording fee: $21 for its first page and $17 for each additional page, including the state technology and heritage trust fund add-ons. The total depends on the number of pages. Ask the title company or closing professional to confirm the exact recording charges for your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.

The Franklin County Appraiser is the county property-appraisal office. Use its official page for appraisal context; it does not give a sale-value conclusion for your specific house.
Use the Franklin County Treasurer's Office page as a county tax-office contact starting point and ask about the specific parcel. The information here does not state a balance or payment procedure.
The Franklin County Register of Deeds is the county land-record office for deed and property-record context. A deed record is separate from an appraisal, a tax balance, and a court judgment.
No. Kansas does not charge a real-estate transfer tax or deed tax. Recording fees still apply to recorded deeds or mortgages; ask the title company or closing professional to confirm the total for the pages being recorded.
A court judgment is a separate court record, not a deed or appraisal. Start with the court named on the judgment or notice; the Appraiser, Treasurer, and Register of Deeds listed here answer different property questions.
