Start with the bill, record, or notice in front of you

Punxsutawney is a borough in southern Jefferson County along Mahoning Creek. County offices listed here are county routes in Brookville, the county seat—not Borough offices in Punxsutawney. The Borough’s Code Enforcement Office and Tax Collector handle Borough matters; the county offices handle their separate county records and processes.

Use the property address and the current bill, notice, estate record, or case number when you contact an office. You can also ask us about an as-is sale before every records question is resolved: call the number above or share the address through the form.

Useful offices

Which office handles which property question?

An assessed value, a tax balance, a deed, and a court notice each involve different records. We buy houses as-is in Punxsutawney Borough and Jefferson County, and you can talk with us about the house while you confirm a specific record with the office that maintains it.

Jefferson County Assessment/Tax Claim

Jefferson County · assessed values and county tax-claim routing

For an assessed-value or assessment-record question, start with the county assessment route. For a county tax-claim or delinquent-tax-sale question, use the department’s Tax Claim route. These are separate from a Borough tax account, recorded deed, or court judgment; use the current bill or notice to identify the account and parcel.

200 Main Street, Brookville, PA 15825.

Phone: (814) 849-1643

Jefferson County Register & Recorder

Jefferson County · probate and recorded land documents

Use the Register & Recorder for probate-estate records and letters, and for recording deeds, mortgages, and other land documents. A recorded deed is not an assessment, tax balance, or court-judgment record.

200 Main Street, 2nd Floor, Brookville, PA 15825.

Phone: (814) 849-1610

Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office

Jefferson County · sheriff sales and Sheriff’s Office information

The county Sheriff conducts sheriff sales of foreclosed properties. For the status or date in a specific matter, check the current notice and case information with the issuing office or court; a Sheriff sale is not the same as a county tax sale.

Punxsutawney Borough Code Enforcement Office

Borough of Punxsutawney · zoning enforcement and building-permit coordination

For a Borough zoning, building-permit, or property-maintenance question, use the Code Enforcement Office and give it the property address and notice details. Some work may need a Borough permit and a separate permit from the Borough’s UCC inspection agency.

301 East Mahoning Street, Suite 6, Punxsutawney, PA 15767.

Phone: (814) 938-4480

Punxsutawney Borough Tax Collector

Borough of Punxsutawney · Borough tax-account contact

Use the Borough’s listed Tax Collector contact for a Borough tax-account question. The county Assessment/Tax Claim department is a different route; check the current bill and parcel information to see which account it concerns.

590 Spruce Alley, Punxsutawney; mailing address P.O. Box 82, Punxsutawney, PA 15767.

Helpful local rule

Check Borough permits before starting work

Punxsutawney Borough’s Code Enforcement Officer handles zoning enforcement and coordinates building permits. The Borough says some work may need both a Borough permit and a separate permit from its Uniform Construction Code (UCC) inspection agency.

If you have a repair plan or a Borough notice, give the Code Enforcement Office the exact address and ask which approvals apply to that work before starting it. Call (814) 938-4480 or use the official Codes & Permits page ↗.

What our sellers say

“After my mother passed, my brother and I inherited her house off Derry Street. Neither of us lives in Harrisburg anymore, and the thought of cleaning it out and making repairs before listing felt impossible. USA Home Buyers made us a fair offer and closed in 12 days. We didn't have to touch a thing.”
Sandra M.Inherited Property — Estate Sale
“I was four months behind on my mortgage and the notices were stacking up. I didn't even know I could sell and still come out with money. USA Home Buyers explained the whole thing, the offer was fair, and we closed before things got worse. Huge weight off my shoulders.”
James R.Behind on Payments — Pre-Foreclosure
“I had a tenant who stopped paying rent and refused to leave. I was paying the mortgage out of pocket for months. USA Home Buyers bought the property with the tenant still in it. That was the end of my landlord days. Done.”
Carol T.Rental Property — Problem Tenant

Punxsutawney seller resource questions

Which Jefferson County office handles assessed value or unpaid county taxes?

Jefferson County Assessment/Tax Claim is the route for assessment questions and county tax-claim matters. Call (814) 849-1643 and use the current bill or notice to ask about the exact parcel. A Borough tax account goes to the Borough Tax Collector instead.

Where do I ask about a deed, mortgage, or court judgment?

Use the Jefferson County Register & Recorder for recording deeds, mortgages, and other land documents. A court judgment is a court or case-record question, not a recorded deed; use the court and case information shown on the judgment or notice to identify the right record route.

Who handles probate estate records in Jefferson County?

The Jefferson County Register & Recorder lists probate estates and the issuance of letters testamentary or administration. Call (814) 849-1610 or use its official page to ask where to find the estate record. The office route alone does not determine who may sign for a particular property.

Who handles a Punxsutawney Borough zoning, permit, or property-maintenance question?

Contact the Punxsutawney Borough Code Enforcement Office at (814) 938-4480 and provide the property address and notice. The Borough says some work may require both a Borough permit and a separate permit from its UCC inspection agency, so ask about the specific work before starting it.

Where do I check a Borough tax bill or a Jefferson County tax claim?

For a Punxsutawney Borough tax account, use the Tax Collector contact listed on the Borough Administration page. For county assessment or a county tax-claim matter, use Jefferson County Assessment/Tax Claim. The bill or notice and property information help identify the correct account.

Who handles a Jefferson County sheriff-sale notice?

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office conducts sheriff sales of foreclosed properties. Check the current notice and case information with the issuing office or court for the status and date in your matter. A sheriff sale is different from a county tax sale.
