Property records in Nevada are maintained at the county level. The County Assessor handles property valuations and assessment data. The County Treasurer handles tax bills and payments. These are separate offices with separate databases.
What this page covers: Nevada 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 Assessor. For tax payment history and bills, go to the County Treasurer. 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 Nevada. The County Assessor handles assessments; the County Recorder handles recordings. Search both if you need the full picture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I search Nevada property records?▼
In Nevada, 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 Nevada Property Records at tax.nv.gov. See the cards below or the county page for direct local search links.
Is there a free statewide Nevada property search?▼
Nevada does not have a single statewide free property search; deed and assessment data are searched at the county level. The Official Nevada Property Records publishes statewide property-tax rules and aggregate data at tax.nv.gov; for individual parcels, use the county assessor or recorder.
What's the difference between the Assessor and the Recorder in Nevada?▼
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 Nevada countys these are combined offices; in others they're separate. The Official Nevada Property Records at tax.nv.gov publishes the full list.
How do I find a Nevada parcel ID (APN/PIN)?▼
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 tax.nv.gov.
How do I challenge a Nevada property assessment?▼
Assessment appeals in Nevada 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 Nevada Property Records publishes the statewide rules, deadlines, and appeal forms at tax.nv.gov.
