How to Search Mississippi Property Records (Start Here)

Property records in Mississippi are maintained at the county level. The County Tax Assessor/Collector handles property valuations and assessment data. The County Tax Collector handles tax bills and payments. These are separate offices with separate databases.

What this page covers: Mississippi property assessment lookups, tax record searches, and parcel/ownership data. What it does not cover: Recorded documents like deeds and mortgages (those are on the Recorded Documents page) or property transfer history.

Where to start: For property values and tax assessments, start with the County Tax Assessor/Collector. For tax payment history and bills, go to the County Tax Collector. For ownership verification, you may need both the assessment records and the recorded documents.

Common mistake: Property assessment records (values and taxes) and recorded documents (deeds and liens) are maintained by different offices in Mississippi. The County Tax Assessor/Collector handles assessments; the Chancery Clerk handles recordings. Search both if you need the full picture.

The 5-Tier Mississippi Property Records Stack

1
Tier 1 — Deed / title
Mississippi County Recorder or Register of Deeds. The legal record of ownership.
2
Tier 2 — Assessment
Mississippi County Assessor. Taxable value (NOT market value).
3
Tier 3 — Tax
Mississippi County Treasurer or Tax Collector. Amount owed and paid.
4
Tier 4 — Liens
Most liens at the county; federal tax liens (IRS) and UCC filings often at the Secretary of State.
5
Tier 5 — Federal land
BLM General Land Office (glorecords.blm.gov) for federally administered land.

Five Things People Get Wrong About Mississippi Property Records

MYTH"The deed shows the current mortgage balance."
FACTThe recorded mortgage shows what was borrowed on day one. Payoff balances are private between lender and borrower — no county office has them.
MYTH"There's a national property database."
FACTThere isn't. No federal registry of who owns what exists — Mississippi property records are kept county by county, office by office.
MYTH"Assessed value equals market value."
FACTDifferent numbers for different jobs. Assessed value exists for taxation and in most places sits below what the house would sell for.
MYTH"All liens show up in the county records."
FACTMostly, not all. Federal tax liens and UCC filings often live in separate indexes — check the Secretary of State's records too before calling a title clean.
MYTH"The assessor and the recorder are the same office."
FACTTwo different jobs: the recorder files deeds and mortgages; the assessor sets taxable values. Which office you need depends on which question you're asking.

Frequently Asked Questions

In Mississippi, property records — including parcel data, assessed value, deeds, and tax history — are primarily maintained at the county level by each county's Assessor and Recorder. Statewide oversight and reporting are provided by the Official Mississippi Property Records at www.dor.ms.gov. See the cards below or the county page for direct local search links.

Mississippi does not have a single statewide free property search; deed and assessment data are searched at the county level. The Official Mississippi Property Records publishes statewide property-tax rules and aggregate data at www.dor.ms.gov; for individual parcels, use the county assessor or recorder.

The county Assessor determines property values for tax purposes and maintains the parcel roll. The county Recorder (sometimes Clerk-Recorder) records deeds, mortgages, liens, and other instruments affecting title. In some Mississippi countys these are combined offices; in others they're separate. The Official Mississippi Property Records at www.dor.ms.gov publishes the full list.

Parcel identification numbers (APN, PIN, or parcel number depending on the county) are assigned by the county assessor. They appear on every tax bill and on the county's online property-search interface. Once you have the parcel ID you can look up assessed value, ownership history, and recorded documents through the county site; the statewide overview is at www.dor.ms.gov.

Assessment appeals in Mississippi are filed at the county level with the local assessment appeals board, typically within a deadline set after annual valuation notices are mailed. The Official Mississippi Property Records publishes the statewide rules, deadlines, and appeal forms at www.dor.ms.gov.
