Where to obtain records

Marin County Tax Collector / Property Tax Records

How to find the information

Property Tax Payments describes annual secured, supplemental and unsecured bills, with a separate tax-defaulted-land-sales route. Use the county’s property-tax service for the appropriate bill type and ask the Tax Collector at 415-473-6133 for an existing unpaid ledger or report.

For an existing delinquent secured-property report, parcel account/payment ledger, bill copy or dated redemption amount, provide the parcel/account/assessment reference, fiscal years, desired as-of date and inspection or electronic-copy format. Ask which current, supplemental, defaulted and payment-plan amounts are included, whether recent payments have posted, and whether any power-to-sell or sale status applies. Confirm record-copy, certification, research or extract fees. A valuation roll, recorded lien, payment screen or dated sale inventory does not certify today’s unpaid balance.

What to ask for

“I am looking for publicly available delinquent real-property tax records for Marin County 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.

County-specific notes

The Tax Collector contact differs from the Assessor/ownership counter. A tax-defaulted land offering concerns later disposal, not every unpaid installment or the whole assessment roll. No taxpayer query, account registration, CAPTCHA verification, records-request submission, upload or payment was made. No taxpayer rows or owner-list attachments are included.
