Office website →

How to find the information

Open the Benton property-tax search. Enter one identifier using Name (last first), Parcel Number, address number/street, PPIN, then submit the search. Confirm the parcel and relevant tax/sale year in any returned record. For tax-sale and redemption records, contact the Benton County Chancery Clerk at 662-224-6300. Provide the parcel number or PPIN, assessed name and tax-sale year. Request the existing sale/redemption entry or an existing unredeemed-parcel file, specify the years needed, and ask for a copy/export cost estimate before ordering. The clerk directory lists chanceryclerk@bentoncountyms.gov for written inquiries. For a current bill balance or pre-sale delinquent-account file, ask the Tax Collector; use the Chancery Clerk for taxes already sold and redemption history.

What to ask for

“I am looking for publicly available delinquent real-property tax records for Benton 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 county-branded form and named search fields were inspected without submitting a taxpayer query. A complete countywide unpaid-only filter, bulk download, historical completeness and current payoff were not established. The Secretary of State’s inventory covers land forfeited to Mississippi after unpaid taxes and an expired redemption period. It does not list every unpaid county bill, every county tax sale or all parcels still in redemption. Absence from the inventory does not establish that taxes are paid.
