Crawford County, Iowa

Where to obtain records

Crawford County Treasurer / Property Tax and Tax-Sale Records

How to find the information

The county expressly excludes online tax-sale redemption and asks users to contact the office for the current amount. Its published redemption instructions require guaranteed funds. The 2026 Notice to Tax Sale Purchasers and online auction route are separate from Pay Property Taxes; ask Treasury for the existing unpaid ledger or dated certificate record.

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 Crawford 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.
