Useful offices

Slidell and St. Tammany Parish resources: what each office handles

Match the office to the record you need. Bring the address, parcel information, current notice, or court case information when you call.

St. Tammany Parish Assessor

St. Tammany Parish · property assessment and valuation records

For property within Slidell city limits, the City identifies the Parish Assessor as the office that assesses property. Use the Assessor for assessed value, parcel records, or assessment questions; an assessment is not the current tax balance.

Slidell office: 985-646-1990. The Assessor lists its Slidell office at the Towers Building, 520 Old Spanish Trail. Confirm the suite before visiting.

St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office — property taxes

St. Tammany Parish · property-tax collection and payment routing

For a property inside Slidell city limits, the City says the Sheriff’s Office collects property taxes. Use its Property Tax or Pay My Property Tax route to check payment instructions or ask about the account for the exact parcel. The Sheriff’s tax role is separate from the Assessor’s valuation work.

Use the property address or parcel information from the tax notice when checking a balance or payment status.

St. Tammany Parish Clerk of Court — Recording and Land Records

St. Tammany Parish · conveyances, mortgages, and recorded land documents

Use the Recording Department or Land Records for recorded deeds, conveyances, mortgages, and other immovable-property documents. These recorded land records are different from a civil court case or an assessment record; a records search alone is not a title opinion.

The Clerk lists a Slidell Annex at the Towers Building, 520 Old Spanish Trail, fifth floor, Slidell, LA 70458, at 985-643-6969. Annex services are limited for many departments, so call first to confirm whether the service you need is available there.

St. Tammany Parish Clerk of Court — Civil Department

St. Tammany Parish · civil and succession case records

For a civil court-file or judgment-record question, including a succession case, start with the Clerk’s Civil Department and have the case information or notice available. A case-file search is different from looking for recorded deeds or mortgages; use the Recording Department and Land Records for those documents.

The Clerk lists its Slidell Annex at 985-643-6969 and notes that many departments have limited services there. Call ahead to confirm the right office and service for your record.

City of Slidell Building Safety

City of Slidell · building permits, plans, and construction questions

For a property within Slidell city limits, contact Building Safety about permits, plans, or construction-related questions. City permitting is separate from an assessment, tax-payment, or land-record search.

250 Bouscaren Street, Slidell, LA 70458 · 985-646-4323. Confirm the property’s current jurisdiction with the City if you are unsure whether it is inside city limits.

City of Slidell Code Enforcement

City of Slidell · code, nuisance, drainage, and unsafe-structure reports

The City accepts reports about issues such as junk, high grass, drainage, permit violations, and unsafe structures for staff review. A listed complaint type does not establish that a case or violation is open at a particular address. Use this City route only for a property within Slidell city limits.

For an address-specific notice or case, contact the City and have the notice and property address available.

Local rules and next steps

Check the account, filing, or address with the office that keeps that record

These local details can point you to the next call. The specific balance, filing, permit, or case status has to be checked against the property and record involved.

Assessment and unpaid property taxes go to different offices

For property within Slidell city limits, the City says the St. Tammany Parish Assessor handles assessment and the Parish Sheriff handles collection. If you need an assessed value or parcel assessment record, contact the Assessor. If you need the amount due or payment status, use the Sheriff’s property-tax route and ask about the exact parcel. One office’s record does not answer the other office’s question.

A Louisiana deed-recording fee depends on the document

Louisiana’s basic statutory recording fee is $100 for a document of one to five pages. Longer documents, extra indexed names, and other services can add charges. Ask the Clerk’s Recording Department about the filing and ask the closing professional to confirm the transaction’s figures.

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

City permits and Olde Towne work have address-specific routes

For a Slidell property, Building Safety is the City contact for permits, plans, and construction questions. If the address is inside the Olde Towne Preservation District, the City publishes a map and a Certificate of Appropriateness review process for specified work. Check the address and proposed work with the City rather than relying on a neighborhood name alone.

Slidell and St. Tammany Parish resource questions

Who handles an assessed value for a Slidell property?

For property within Slidell city limits, the City identifies the St. Tammany Parish Assessor for assessment and valuation records. Call the Assessor’s Slidell office at 985-646-1990. An assessed value is different from the current tax balance.

Where do I check an unpaid property-tax balance?

The City says the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office collects property taxes for property within Slidell city limits. Use the Sheriff’s Property Tax or Pay My Property Tax route and ask about the exact parcel. The Assessor handles valuation, not tax collection.

Where should I look for a deed, mortgage, or court judgment record?

Use the Clerk of Court’s Civil Department for a civil court-file or judgment-record question. Use Recording or Land Records for recorded deeds, conveyances, mortgages, and other land documents.

The Slidell Annex phone is 985-643-6969, but services there are limited for many departments, so call first to confirm where your record is handled.

Which office handles an estate or succession court file?

Start with the St. Tammany Parish Clerk of Court Civil Department for succession and civil case records. The Clerk lists the Slidell Annex at 985-643-6969 and advises calling ahead because services there are limited for many departments. Use the case information or notice when you contact the office.

Who can answer a Slidell permit or code question?

For a property inside Slidell city limits, contact City Building Safety about permits, plans, and construction questions, and City Code Enforcement about reported code or property-maintenance concerns.
