Local records and offices

Presque Isle and Aroostook County resources: what each office handles

City and County offices have separate service areas. Match the office to the document or question you have, and confirm property-specific details with the office before relying on a record.

City of Presque Isle Assessor

City of Presque Isle · assessments, maps, and ownership-of-record information

Start here for a City assessment, assessed value, parcel map, or ownership-of-record question. The City’s GIS and parcel maps are assessment and orientation tools, not proof of title, exact boundaries, or a home’s condition.

The City Assessor is a municipal office; neighboring towns have their own assessment routes.

City of Presque Isle Tax Collection Office

City of Presque Isle · property-tax bills, payments, and liens for nonpayment

Contact Tax Collection about a City property-tax bill, payment, or a tax lien notice for nonpayment. This is a different task from checking an assessed value with the Assessor or looking up a recorded deed with the County Registry.

Tax Collector: (207) 764-2522.

City of Presque Isle Code Office

City of Presque Isle · code enforcement and land-use questions

Use the City Code Office for a code or land-use question about a property within City jurisdiction. The City lists a Certificate of Occupancy permit item, but that listing alone does not establish that a sale requires a certificate or inspection.

The City page lists Code Enforcement Officer Jason Perry at (207) 764-2570.

Aroostook County Southern Registry of Deeds

Aroostook County · recorded deeds and other land documents; Presque Isle is in its service area

Use the Southern Registry for recorded deeds and land-document questions. The County’s service-area list routes Presque Isle to this office; City assessment records and County land records are separate.

26 Court Street, Suite 102, Houlton, ME 04730 · (207) 532-1500.

Aroostook County Registry of Probate

Aroostook County · probate records and filings

This is the County-published contact route for probate records and filings. The office location by itself does not establish which court has venue for an individual estate, so ask about the specific estate record.

26 Court Street, Suite 103, Houlton, ME 04730 · (207) 532-1502.

A Maine sale-cost rule

Know how Maine’s real estate transfer tax is divided

Maine charges $2.20 for each $500 of value or fraction of $500 when a deed transfers real estate. The law splits that tax equally: half is assigned to the seller and half to the buyer. Since November 1, 2025, the portion of value above $1,000,000 also carries an additional $3.80 for each $500; most homes are not affected by that surcharge. The county register of deeds calculates and collects the tax when the deed is recorded. Ask the closing professional to show the tax and allocation for your transaction.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Presque Isle and Aroostook County resource questions

Who can answer a property assessment or parcel-map question?

The City of Presque Isle Assessor handles City assessment, assessed-value, parcel-map, and ownership-of-record questions. The City’s GIS and parcel maps are not proof of title or exact boundaries. For a recorded deed, use the Aroostook County Southern Registry of Deeds.

Where do I ask about an unpaid City property-tax bill or lien notice?

Contact the City of Presque Isle Tax Collection Office at (207) 764-2522 about a City property-tax bill, payment, or lien for nonpayment. That is separate from an assessment question for the City Assessor.

Which Aroostook County Registry of Deeds serves Presque Isle?

Aroostook County’s service-area list routes Presque Isle to the Southern Registry of Deeds in Houlton. The office is at 26 Court Street, Suite 102, and its phone number is (207) 532-1500. The City Assessor handles a different record system.

Does the Aroostook County Registry of Probate decide where every estate must be filed?

The County publishes its Registry of Probate as a contact route for probate records and filings, but the office address alone does not establish venue for an individual estate. Ask about the specific estate record and its proper court route.

Who should I contact about a Presque Isle code or land-use question?

For a property within City jurisdiction, use the City of Presque Isle Code Office. The City page lists Code Enforcement Officer Jason Perry at (207) 764-2570. A permit listing does not by itself establish that a sale requires a certificate or inspection.

How is Maine’s real estate transfer tax handled when a house is sold?

Maine’s real estate transfer tax is $2.20 for each $500 of value or fraction of $500, split equally by law between the seller and buyer. Since November 1, 2025, the portion of value above $1,000,000 also carries an additional $3.80 for each $500; most homes are not affected by that surcharge. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the real estate transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Where can I compare sale options, local information, and planning numbers?

Use the Presque Isle market report, home-selling guide, articles, selling-process page, and home-sale net proceeds calculator linked above. A market measure is context, not a price for a particular house.
