PROPERTY TAX RESEARCH, MADE SIMPLER
Wood County, Wisconsin
Where to look, which office to contact, and how to request records.
Where to obtain records
Wood County Treasurer’s Office
Official published property-tax record access guidanceHow to find the information
The Treasurer separately indexes October Delinquent Real Estate PDF and TXT files dated October 1, 2026, annual real-estate tax files and file layouts. Individual account records use Property Tax Search. Choose the delinquent file/date needed rather than an annual full roll or assessed-value export. The county says its website is not an official certification and directs certifiably accurate tax-record inquiries to the Courthouse Treasurer. No taxpayer files were downloaded.
Identify the county, municipality, real-estate parcel/account number, tax years and desired as-of date. Ask for the existing unpaid collection ledger or dated statement showing principal, included levies/special assessments, payments, interest, penalties and later costs. Confirm whether the municipality still holds that year or the county has taken over. An ordinary bill, paid receipt, assessment roll, tax certificate, In Rem case, redemption calculation, tax-deeded property list and surplus-proceeds distribution are separate records. For enforcement or a completed sale, ask the Treasurer to identify the applicable court/county custodian and request the dated notice, case/sale record or funds record. Confirm available existing formats and copy/certification charges before ordering.

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