Find the right Smith County contact

The Tyler city-boundary comparison shows an intersection with Smith County only. That is geographic orientation, not a parcel-specific county or probate-venue determination. Property valuation, tax accounts, recorded deeds, and court judgments are different questions; use the property address and the notice or record in front of you to choose a starting point.

For an assessed value, follow the appraisal contact printed on the property’s current official notice. For a tax account, deed, estate record, or court matter, use the matching Smith County contact below.

Local records and offices

Smith County offices: what each one handles

Start with the office whose work matches the question. County directory contacts are starting points, not confirmation of a specific balance, document, case, or estate authority.

Smith County Clerk

Smith County · probate, Official Public Records, and Land Records

The county directory lists Probate, Official Public Records, and Land Records functions. Use the land-record route for recorded deed and property-document questions, and the Probate Department for an estate-record starting point. A directory listing does not determine who can sign for a particular estate or whether a document affects a specific parcel.

Probate Department: 903-590-4678. The County Clerk directory lists the office at 200 E. Ferguson, Suite 300, Tyler, TX 75702.

Smith County Court at Law 3

Smith County · probate staff contact route

The county directory lists probate staff roles for this court. Use it as a contact route for an identified probate-court question; the directory alone does not establish the proper venue for a particular estate.

903-590-1690 · 100 N. Broadway, Room 303, Smith County Courthouse, Tyler, TX 75702.

Smith County Tax Assessor-Collector

Smith County · county property-tax office

Use the county tax-office route for a property-tax account question, including how to check an unpaid-tax balance. Ask the office to confirm the current account for the exact property; the directory does not establish a parcel balance or payoff amount.

903-590-2920 · 1517 West Front Street, Tyler, TX 75702.

Smith County Tax Suits Department

Smith County District Clerk · already identified tax-suit matters

The District Clerk directory lists this department as a routing point for an already identified tax-suit matter. Use the court information on the existing notice or case record; this directory does not show that a particular suit applies to a property.

903-590-1673.

A Texas sale-cost fact

No Texas real-estate transfer tax—but the deed still gets recorded

Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax on a sale conveying full ownership. The Texas Constitution bars laws imposing that kind of transfer tax. A deed still has to be signed before a notary and recorded with the county clerk. Use the Smith County Clerk’s Land Records contact above for current deed-record questions, and ask your closing professional to explain any recording fees for your sale.

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

Questions about Tyler and Smith County seller resources

Where should I start if I want to check a property value?

An assessed value is a different question from paying a tax bill or finding a deed. Use the appraisal contact printed on the property’s current official value or tax notice. The Smith County Tax Assessor-Collector listed here is the county tax-office route for tax-account questions, not a property-specific value estimate.

Who handles unpaid property taxes in Smith County?

Start with the Smith County Tax Assessor-Collector at 903-590-2920 or use the Tax Department directory above. Ask about the current account for the exact property; the directory does not show its balance or payoff amount.

Where do I look for a deed or a court judgment?

The Smith County Clerk directory lists Official Public Records and Land Records for recorded deed and property-document questions. Court judgments are court-record questions: use the clerk named on the case notice. For an already identified tax-suit matter, the Smith County Tax Suits Department at 903-590-1673 is the listed District Clerk route; it is not a general deed search.

Which Smith County office can point me to probate records?

The Smith County Clerk’s Probate Department at 903-590-4678 is a starting point for an estate record. Smith County Court at Law 3 lists probate staff roles at 903-590-1690. Use the estate and court records themselves to confirm the right contact for a particular matter.

Does Texas charge real-estate transfer tax when I sell?

Texas has no state, county, or city real-estate transfer tax on a sale conveying full ownership. A deed still has to be signed before a notary and recorded with the county clerk. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
