Useful offices
Assessment, tax accounts, recorded deeds, court matters, and city code questions go to different offices. Start with the record or notice you have and the property’s actual jurisdiction.
Yakima County · assessment and parcel records
Contact the Assessor about assessed value, assessment records, or parcel-record routing. Assessment information is different from a tax balance, a recorded deed, or a court matter.
128 N 2nd Street, Room 112, Yakima, WA 98901 · 509-574-1100.
Yakima County · property-tax accounts and Treasurer information
Use the Treasurer’s Office for property-tax account questions and its tax-foreclosure information. This is separate from assessed-value questions, recorded documents, and court records.
128 N 2nd Street, Room 115, Yakima, WA 98901 · Tax Division: 509-574-2800.
Yakima County · recorded documents and recording inquiries
Contact Recording about recorded-document and recording-division questions, including a recorded deed. A court judgment or case question belongs with the court, not the recording division.
128 N 2nd Street, Room 117, Yakima, WA 98901 · 509-574-1400.
Yakima County · Clerk’s Office and local probate-information route
Use the Clerk’s Office for its county and probate information route. Ask which office handles the particular estate record or court-file question you have; the Clerk does not make a property-specific signing determination.
128 N 2nd Street, Room 323, Yakima, WA 98901 · 509-574-1430.
Yakima County · local superior-court matters
Contact Superior Court about local superior-court matters. For a court judgment or case question, use the court route rather than treating it as a deed-recording or assessment question.
128 N 2nd Street, Room 314, Yakima, WA 98901 · 509-574-2710.
City of Yakima only · code compliance and inspection contacts
For a property inside Yakima city limits, use City Code Administration for code-compliance questions and the listed reporting or inspection contacts. Check the property’s jurisdiction before relying on a city contact.
129 N 2nd Street, 2nd Floor, Yakima, WA 98901 · Main: 509-575-6126 · Code Compliance Hotline: 509-576-6657 · Inspection Hotline: 509-576-6682.
Helpful local rules
City of Yakima Code Administration is a city contact, not a countywide code office. Use the City’s City Limits Map to check whether a specific address is inside Yakima city limits instead of inferring jurisdiction from its mailing address or a Yakima County label. If it is within the city, the Code Compliance and inspection contacts above can direct the next question.
Washington’s Department of Revenue says REET generally is paid by the seller; if the seller does not pay, the buyer is responsible, and unpaid tax can become a lien on the property. The state portion is graduated by taxable selling price and classification, and local REET is added, so the amount depends on the property’s location and transaction. Ask the settlement agent to confirm the current rate, any exemption, and the amount on the REET affidavit and settlement statement.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Washington real estate excise tax. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes.

Washington calls the tax real estate excise tax, or REET. The Department of Revenue says the seller generally pays; if the seller does not, the buyer is responsible, and unpaid tax can become a lien on the property. The amount depends on the taxable sale, classification, location, and any applicable exemption. Ask the settlement agent to confirm the current amount. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Washington real estate excise tax; that does not include your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes.
