Audubon County, Iowa

Where to obtain records

Audubon County Treasurer / Property Tax and Tax-Sale Records

How to find the information

For contract purchases, the county says to search under the deed holder’s name; a parcel-number search is another route. Its 2026 tax-sale information and Affidavit of Redemption are separate links. Request a dated certificate/redemption record through the Treasurer when the ordinary parcel account is insufficient.

For an existing-record request, specify the parcel number, assessment/tax year, payable year and desired as-of date. Distinguish an ordinary collection ledger, dated delinquency publication, tax-sale certificate history and a dated redemption quote. Ask whether special assessments, drainage charges, subsequent taxes, penalties, costs and recent payments are included. Confirm inspection, electronic-copy, certification, research and extract charges with the Treasurer. Assessed values, a payment receipt and an advertised sale amount have different scope from a complete current unpaid balance.

What to ask for

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