PROPERTY TAX RESEARCH, MADE SIMPLER
Ketchikan Gateway Borough, Alaska
Where to look, which office to contact, and how to request records.
Where to obtain records
Ketchikan Gateway Borough Finance / Property Tax
Official municipal tax and access guidanceHow to find the information
The Property Tax page directs tax-payment questions to Finance and separates online, phone, mail and in-person payment routes at the White Cliff Building, 1900 First Avenue. Request an existing account ledger or delinquent report through Finance, identifying real property and the needed years. Property Search is separately linked as a parcel reference.
If a municipal real-property levy applies, request an existing delinquent report, parcel account/payment ledger or statement for the needed tax years and as-of date. Supply a parcel/account ID and exact municipal location if known. Ask about principal, penalties, interest, foreclosure costs and recent payment posting. Confirm inspection, electronic-copy, certification or extract fees. Assessment values, recorded liens and dated sale lists do not certify today’s unpaid balance.
What to ask for
“I am looking for publicly available delinquent real-property tax records for Ketchikan Gateway Borough for [tax year]. Which office maintains these records? Is there an online search or downloadable list? If not, how can I request a copy, and what fees apply?”
Have the property address, parcel number, owner name, and tax year ready when searching for a particular property.
