Sutter County offices: which one handles what
Property value, an unpaid tax bill, a recorded deed, and a court judgment are separate questions. These county offices cover assessment and recorded real-property documents.
Sutter County Clerk-Recorder-Registrar of Voters
Serves Sutter County
Use the Clerk-Recorder for recorded documents affecting title to real property in Sutter County, including deed-record questions. Court judgments are court-case records, not assessed values or deed records.
For an unpaid tax balance, check the current property-tax bill or the county's official tax-payment information; ask the title or escrow company to verify the amount for a sale. For a court judgment, use the court or case information on the notice and ask the title company or your attorney which record applies.
California documentary transfer tax
California counties charge $0.55 for each $500 of taxable consideration, or fraction of $500, when the consideration is over $100. That works out to $1.10 per $1,000. A city may receive half of the county rate as its share, while some cities charge an additional transfer tax. Ask the title or escrow company to confirm the taxable amount and any city tax for the property before comparing your net.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the county documentary transfer tax and any city transfer tax. This does not cover your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.

Questions about local offices and selling costs
Which Sutter County office can help with an assessed property value?
The Sutter County Assessor provides property assessment information. That is different from checking whether a property-tax bill is unpaid.
Where should I check for unpaid property taxes?
Use the property’s current tax bill or the county’s official tax-payment information to check an amount due. The Assessor’s valuation records and the Clerk-Recorder’s recorded documents answer different questions; ask the title or escrow company to verify the amount for a sale.
Does the Clerk-Recorder handle court judgments?
The Sutter County Clerk-Recorder records documents affecting title to real property in Sutter County. A court judgment is a court-case record, so use the court or case information on the notice and ask the title company or your attorney how it relates to the property.
