PROPERTY TAX RESEARCH, MADE SIMPLER
Marshall County, Iowa
Where to look, which office to contact, and how to request records.
Where to obtain records
Marshall County Treasurer / Property Tax and Tax-Sale Records
County Treasurer-authored access and contact guideHow to find the information
The county specifies a twelve-digit parcel number and a separate five-digit eCheck receipt number at the upper right of the stub. It links the official county property website for statements and says redemption cannot be paid online. Its sale materials retain a 2022 label; request the correct dated sale/certificate record through the Property Tax Department.
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 Marshall 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.
