Wells County, Indiana

Where to obtain records

Wells County Treasurer; Auditor for tax-sale/redemption records

How to find the information

The Treasurer separately links View/Pay Tax Bills, GIS Property Tax Information, E-Billing and Tax Sale. Use the tax-information view or request the existing unpaid parcel ledger. The Auditor’s separate guidance describes preparing the delinquency list and links SRI for sale information.

Provide the parcel/PIN or duplicate number, tax year, payable year and desired as-of date when requesting existing records. Specify current collection history, a dated delinquency publication, a tax-sale certificate/redemption record or a personal-property judgment. Ask whether assessments, penalties, costs, subsequent taxes and recent payments are included. Confirm inspection, electronic-copy, certification, research and extract charges. A valuation, payment receipt, advertised minimum bid or sheriff foreclosure is not by itself proof of every current unpaid obligation.

What to ask for

“I am looking for publicly available delinquent real-property tax records for Wells 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

Paperless-billing enrollment and a GIS assessment view have different purposes from an unpaid ledger or dated redemption quote. Ask which tax-sale records are maintained by the Auditor.
