Fast Answer: Where Do I Search St. Tammany Property Records?

For a house, lot or other real property, start with the official Assessor search. You can search the assessment roll by owner name, property address, assessment number, mailing address, care-of name or property description. After opening a record, scroll to the bottom and choose Show Tax Detail to review the millages and estimated dollar breakdown.

No payment required: the official St. Tammany Assessor states that checking an assessment is a public service with no charge and that it will never request credit-card information or payment for the assessment lookup.

Assessor vs Sheriff vs Clerk: Choose the Right St. Tammany Office

Assessment records, parcel maps, property-tax bills and recorded deeds are separate public-record systems.

Value, owner, exemption or assessment

Use the Assessor for assessment values, owner information, physical and mailing addresses, assessment numbers, Homestead Exemption, freezes, public inspection and Assessment Review.

Parcel location and GIS

Use the GIS Parcel Viewer to locate mapped parcels and compare their geographic context. It is useful when an address or assessment search does not immediately identify the parcel.

Tax bill, payment or delinquency

The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff serves as the property-tax collector. Use the Sheriff’s tax system for payment status, tax-year records and tax-collection questions.

How to Search St. Tammany Assessor Property Records

The official workflow gives you a text search and a GIS option. Start with text search when you know the owner, address or assessment number.

Open Check Your Assessment

Enter the official property-search system and review the Assessor’s terms and data-status notice.

Choose the correct year

The system currently defaults to the 2025 certified roll. Select 2026 when you need current 2026 roll information and remember that it remains unofficial until the public-inspection period begins.

Choose your search field

The traditional Assessment Text Search supports owner name, address, assessment number, mailing address, care-of information and property description.

Start with fewer words

For an address, leave off Street, Drive, Road and similar suffixes first. For an owner, simplify the name if a full legal name returns nothing.

Verify the parcel before relying on it

Match physical address, owner, assessment number, property description, exemptions and map location so you do not use a similarly named owner or neighboring parcel.

Open Show Tax Detail

After locating the assessment, scroll to the bottom and use Show Tax Detail to review the displayed millages and estimated dollar distribution.

Official free assessment lookup Start St. Tammany Search

Which St. Tammany Property Search Field Should You Use?

What you know	Best field	Search strategy	If it fails
Owner name	Owner Name	Start with the most distinctive portion of the owner name.	Try a shorter name, property address or prior owner after a recent transfer.
Physical address	Address	Use house number + core street name first.	Remove Street, Drive, Road, Highway or similar suffix wording.
Assessment number	Assessment Number	Use the exact number from an Assessor record or tax document.	Remember that assessment numbers changed for properties beginning with the 2022 tax year; use the current number.
Tax-bill mailing location	Mailing Address	Useful when the owner does not live at the property.	Switch to physical address or assessment number to confirm the actual parcel.
Care-of recipient	Care Of	Useful for estates, agents or records with a separate mailing recipient.	Use owner or parcel information if the care-of wording has changed.
Subdivision / legal clue	Property Description	Use distinctive subdivision, lot or description text.	Switch to GIS to locate the parcel visually.

St. Tammany Assessor Property Search by Address

Address formatting is one of the easiest problems to fix. The Assessor specifically advises users not to include suffixes such as Street, Drive or Road for better results.

Try this first

Enter the street number.
Enter the main street name.
Leave off Street, St., Drive, Dr., Road or Rd. initially.
Remove unnecessary punctuation.
Compare physical address and owner before selecting a result.

If there is no match

Try an alternate official abbreviation.
Search only the street name.
Use the owner-name field.
Use the assessment number from a prior record.
Switch to GIS if you know the location visually.

Example: if 123 Example Drive returns nothing, try 123 Example before assuming the property is missing.

St. Tammany Assessor Property Search by Owner or Name

Owner-name searches are useful for discovering parcels, but ownership displays can lag a recent act of sale or use trust, estate, company or care-of wording.

Individual owner

Start with the surname or most distinctive name.
Remove middle initials if the search is too restrictive.
Check multiple results against the physical address.
Try the prior owner after a recent purchase.

Trust, LLC, estate or legal ownership

Try the distinctive entity wording.
Search property address when the exact entity name is uncertain.
Use the Clerk’s recorded act of sale for legal transfer research.
Do not treat the Assessor owner field as a title opinion.

July 4 ownership cutoff: the Assessor explains that the annual roll generally reflects ownership when the Bill of Sale was recorded before July 4 of the applicable tax year, while splits, combines and resubdivisions can use January 1 ownership/property-description timing.

Is the St. Tammany Assessor Property Search Free?

Yes. The official Assessor assessment lookup is free. The Assessor explicitly says the public search has no charge and will never ask for a credit card or payment.

Record service	Free or paid?	What to know
Assessor assessment search	Free	No card or payment should be required to check the official assessment.
Assessor GIS Parcel Viewer	Public access	Use for parcel/map research; not all parcels are currently mapped.
Sheriff tax-account search	Public lookup	Payment methods and transaction fees are separate from simply looking up the tax account.
Cott RECORDhub land records	Paid subscription	$25 daily access or $50 for 30 days under the current Clerk pricing.
Legacy Clerk land-record site	Existing balances/subscriptions	Remains available to existing users through December 31, 2026; new registration/funding has been disabled during the transition.

Important distinction: “free property search” does not mean every certified deed copy, subscription, tax payment or legal research service is free. Start with the free Assessor record, then pay only when the separate official record service actually requires it.

St. Tammany Assessor Property Search Map and GIS Parcel Viewer

The Assessor offers a separate GIS Parcel Viewer for property-location and parcel-context research.

GIS is useful for

Locating a parcel visually.
Confirming the address result is in the expected location.
Comparing nearby parcels.
Connecting a physical location with an assessment record.
Researching parcel configuration.

GIS should not be used as

A professional boundary survey.
Proof of exact fence location.
A title opinion.
A guarantee that every recent recorded change is already mapped.
A substitute for a recorded plat or survey.

Coverage limitation: the Assessor’s published GIS instructions say approximately 70,000 parcels are available in the GIS viewer and that not all parcels have been added yet.

2026 map/data timing: GIS parcel configurations can be current while underlying roll data still reflects the certified 2025 roll until the 2026 roll is certified. That is why a map and assessment-detail page can appear to be on different update schedules.

Official St. Tammany GIS Parcel Viewer Open GIS Map

What Is Current in the St. Tammany 2026 Property Search?

As of August 12, the search year you choose matters.

Data	Current status	How to use it
2025 tax roll	Certified	The property-search system currently defaults to this certified roll.
2026 tax roll	Selectable but not yet official before public inspection	Select 2026 for current ownership/assessment information and verify it during the August exposure period.
2026 assessed values	Posted during August	Review value, exemptions, special assessments and physical/mailing addresses before August 31.
2026 tax estimates	Preliminary	Current millages are not final until later; do not treat an August estimate as the final Sheriff tax bill.
GIS configuration	Can reflect live/current parcel configuration	Useful for locating parcels, but underlying assessment data may follow a different certification schedule.

Why August matters: do not wait until the property-tax bill arrives in November to discover a wrong assessment, address, exemption or special assessment. The legal review period occurs earlier.

What a St. Tammany Assessment Record Tells You

Record item	Useful for	Important limitation
Owner name	Finding the owner carried on the assessment roll.	Recent recorded ownership can take time to reach every public system.
Physical address	Locating the actual property.	It may differ from the owner’s mailing address.
Mailing address	Understanding where valuation notices and tax correspondence are directed.	An outdated mailing address can result in notices being sent to the wrong place.
Assessment number	Connecting the Assessor record to tax-payment and office research.	Properties received new assessment numbers beginning with the 2022 tax year; use the current number.
Fair market / assessed value	Understanding the valuation basis before millages and exemptions are applied.	It is not the final property-tax bill.
Homestead / special assessment	Checking whether qualifying relief appears on the record.	A pending application or correction may not instantly appear online.
Show Tax Detail	Reviewing displayed millages and estimated allocation.	August tax estimates can use prior-year millages before current rates are finalized.

Louisiana residential assessment basics

For ordinary residential property, land and residential improvements are generally assessed at 10% of fair market value. A qualifying Homestead Exemption can remove up to $7,500 of assessed value, corresponding to the first $75,000 of qualifying market value under the normal homestead framework.

Do not use that formula as a tax bill: millages, special districts, exemptions and other applicable rules still determine the final amount collected.

2026 St. Tammany Assessment Review: Exact Dates and Steps

The 2026 public-review period begins August 17. That is the time to correct an assessed-value problem—not after the November tax bill arrives.

Before August 17 — prepare

Select 2026 in the property search, verify the parcel, save the assessment number, review property facts and begin collecting evidence.

August 17, 2026 — official public exposure begins

The 2026 roll enters the official Public Inspection/Exposure/Review period.

August 17–31 — discuss and review

Check assessed value, physical and mailing address, exemptions and special assessments. Contact the Assessor promptly if something is wrong.

August 31, 2026 — Assessor Assessment Review deadline

A 2026 Assessment Review must be timely filed by the last day of the official public-inspection period.

September 14, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. — Board of Review deadline

If a timely Assessor Review was filed and you are not satisfied with the response or have not received a response, follow the Parish Board of Review appeal instructions by the deadline.

Grounds that make an assessment review stronger

Property facts are wrong

Wrong square footage.
Wrong bath/room count.
Garage shown instead of carport.
Physical-condition error.
Incorrect property classification.

Market value is too high

Recent professional appraisal.
Relevant nearby sales.
Licensed Realtor opinion of value.
Damage or adverse-condition evidence.
Repair documentation.

Assessment is inequitable

Comparable properties.
Similar property type.
Comparable location.
Comparable condition.
Clear explanation of the unequal treatment.

Not a “taxes are too high” appeal: the Assessor explains that an assessment appeal must address property value, factual data or fairness of the assessment. Taxing authorities—not the Assessor—determine budgets and millage rates.

Online Assessment Review scope: the Assessor’s forms page says the online Assessment Review form is for assessed-value issues. Homestead, Senior/Disability/Veteran Freeze and similar relief should be handled through the appropriate relief/application process instead.

Official 2026 Assessment Review instructions Review 2026 Dates & Filing

St. Tammany Parish Board of Review Appeal

The Parish Council serves as the Board of Review in this property-assessment process.

First file a timely 2026 Assessment Review with the Assessor by August 31.
If the Assessor response does not resolve the issue—or no response has been received—review the Board of Review appeal route.
Submit the appeal by September 14, 2026 at 4:30 p.m.
Keep copies of every document previously provided to the Assessor.
Organize evidence by the exact valuation/factual issue being disputed.
Keep proof showing when the appeal was submitted.

Late filing consequence: the Assessor warns that Assessment Reviews and appeals received after the legal September 14 deadline forfeit normal appeal rights and are processed only after timely reviews and Board appeals.

Storm exception: the Assessor provides a separate Storm Review application route for qualifying hurricane, flood, tornado or similar damage, regardless of the normal annual deadlines.

What Happens After the Parish Board of Review?

The normal Louisiana progression can continue beyond the local Board when an owner still disagrees with the assessment.

1. Assessor

Start with the timely local Assessment Review and provide the value/factual evidence supporting the requested correction.

2. Parish Board of Review

Use the Board route after the timely Assessor process when the issue remains unresolved.

3. Louisiana Tax Commission

If still dissatisfied with a qualifying Board determination, follow the decision notice and current Louisiana Tax Commission appeal instructions. Further judicial review may follow under Louisiana law.

Evidence timing matters: do not assume that withholding evidence until a later appeal level will improve the case. Submit your strongest relevant valuation evidence during the local review process and follow each decision notice carefully.

St. Tammany Homestead Exemption: What New Owners Need

Homestead Exemption applies to a qualifying primary residence and is handled by the Assessor—not by the Sheriff Tax Collector.

Prepare these basic documents

Driver’s license or voter registration showing the current property address.
Copy of the recorded cash sale or deed.
Current ownership and occupancy details.

How to apply

The Assessor currently states that Homestead Exemption, Freeze and Special Assessment applications are completed in person or via Zoom. Contact the office before the appointment so all required documents are ready.

New-owner reality

Homestead Exemption does not automatically transfer permanently from seller to buyer.
A new homeowner should apply after purchasing and occupying the new primary residence.
Once approved for the same qualifying home, ordinary Homestead Exemption does not require a new application every year.
If you move to another home, apply again for the new residence.

First-year tax confusion: a recently purchased property can still have a tax bill under the previous owner’s name because Louisiana bills the annual tax to the owner of record under the applicable annual timing rules. Closing documents usually address the buyer/seller allocation; the Sheriff does not split one annual bill into two separate owner bills.

Official St. Tammany forms and relief resources Review Homestead Requirements

2026 Senior, Disability and Veteran Freeze Rules

A Freeze is a special assessment-level program. It does not freeze the actual tax bill.

2026 Senior Freeze

Generally requires age 65 or older.
Requires qualifying Homestead Exemption.
2026 maximum combined Adjusted Gross Income is $102,700.
The income threshold begins annual CPI adjustment in 2026.
Prepare matching Louisiana ID/voter-registration documentation and 2025 federal tax returns.

Other Freeze programs

Disability and qualifying Veteran Disability Freeze programs have separate eligibility/document requirements. The Assessor currently uses the same $102,700 maximum 2026 AGI in its published Freeze guidance.

Freeze does not mean fixed taxes: the protected assessed value can remain unchanged while the final tax bill rises or falls because millage rates can change.

Official Assessor Freeze guidance Review 2026 Freeze Rules

St. Tammany Property Tax Search: Use the Sheriff, Not the Assessor

The Assessor creates and maintains assessment information. The Sheriff’s Property Tax Department handles collection and payment status.

Use the tax portal for

Tax-year property records.
Assessment-number tax search.
Taxpayer/property search.
Payment status.
Delinquency questions.

Current assessment-number rule

The Sheriff’s portal says that beginning with the 2022 tax year, all properties received new assessment numbers. Use the current assessment number when referencing a tax account or payment.

Need the assessment number? Search the property through the Assessor first, save the current assessment number, then move to the Sheriff tax portal.

Official St. Tammany Sheriff online tax system Search Property Tax Account

Current Property Tax Payment Status and Fees

Payment availability changes during the annual collection and tax-sale cycle. Verify the current portal status before attempting a transaction.

Current August 2026 status: the Sheriff’s tax portal states that online property-tax payments stopped as of July 1, 2026 for the current delinquent collection cycle. Do not assume the presence of an online search page means payment is currently enabled.

Payment / research item	Current practical rule
Checking / savings payment	When online property-tax payment is enabled, the portal states there is no fee for checking/savings-account payments.
Debit / credit card	When enabled, the portal states a 2.5% convenience fee applies, with a $1 minimum.
Payment posting	A processed payment can take up to five business days to appear in the online system.
Tax research certificate	For an act of sale, refinance or other legal certification need, contact the Tax Collector rather than relying solely on the public payment website.
Partial payment	The Sheriff requires the appropriate Partial Payment Agreement before accepting partial-property-tax payments under the published procedure.

November bill reminder: the Assessor repeatedly warns property owners not to wait for the year-end tax bill before checking an assessment. The valuation-review deadline occurs first.

For property-tax payment or notice questions, contact the Sheriff Property Tax Department at 985-809-8217 or propertytax@stpso.com.

St. Tammany Deed Search: New RECORDhub Portal for 2026

The Clerk of Court changed online land-record systems in July 2026. Older articles that direct you only to Clerk Connect or the old legacy land-record login are now incomplete.

Portal change: the new St. Tammany online Land Records Portal went live on July 27, 2026 using Cott RECORDhub.

Cott RECORDhub — current portal

Use the current system for online land-record searching, document purchases and subscriptions.

$25 daily access.
$50 for 30-day access.
Annual subscriptions are not yet available during the current system transition.

Legacy land-record system

The legacy website remains available to existing users through December 31, 2026 so remaining print/subscription balances can be used.

New legacy account registration is disabled.
Additional legacy account funding is disabled.
Legacy site retires after December 31, 2026.

Acts of sale.
Mortgages.
Judgments of possession.
Cancellations.
Property settlements.
Liens.

Other Mortgage and Conveyance records.

Free-search distinction: the Assessor property lookup is free, but the Clerk’s new online land-record portal uses paid subscriptions. Do not confuse a free assessment search with a full deed/title-record subscription.

St. Tammany Assessor Property Search FAQs

Is the St. Tammany Assessor property search free?

Yes. The St. Tammany Parish Assessor states that checking an assessment through its official website is a free public service and that it will never ask for credit-card information or payment for the assessment lookup.

How do I search St. Tammany property by owner or name?

Use the Assessor’s Assessment Text Search and select Owner Name. Start with the most distinctive part of the owner name. If there is no result, simplify the name, try the property address or search the prior owner when the property was recently sold.

How do I search St. Tammany property by address?

Use the Address field in the official assessment search. The Assessor recommends leaving off suffixes such as Street, Drive and Road for better results. Start with the street number and main street name, then verify the owner and assessment number.

Where is the St. Tammany property search map?

Use the Assessor’s GIS Parcel Viewer. It provides map-based parcel research, but the Assessor notes that not every parcel is available in the public GIS yet and that map information should not be treated as legal boundary-survey proof.

When is the 2026 St. Tammany assessment review period?

The official 2026 Public Inspection/Exposure/Review period is August 17 through August 31, 2026. The deadline to file a 2026 Assessment Review with the Assessor is August 31, 2026.

What is the 2026 St. Tammany Board of Review deadline?

If a timely Assessment Review was filed and the owner remains dissatisfied or has not received a response, the deadline to submit a Parish Board of Review appeal is September 14, 2026 at 4:30 p.m.

The Assessor currently lists a driver’s license or voter registration reflecting the current property address and a copy of the recorded cash sale or deed among the basic Homestead documents. Applications are handled in person or through the Assessor’s Zoom process.

What is the St. Tammany Senior Freeze income limit for 2026?

The Assessor lists a maximum combined Adjusted Gross Income of $102,700 for 2026. The Senior Freeze generally also requires age 65 or older and a qualifying Homestead Exemption. It freezes qualifying assessed value, not the final tax bill.

Where do I check or pay St. Tammany property taxes?

Use the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Property Tax system. The Assessor does not mail bills or collect property-tax payments. As of August 2026, the Sheriff portal states that online property-tax payments stopped July 1 for the current delinquent collection cycle, so check the current payment status or contact the Property Tax Department before attempting payment.

Where do I search St. Tammany deeds and land records in 2026?

Use the St. Tammany Clerk of Court Land Records Department and its new Cott RECORDhub system, which went live July 27, 2026. Current RECORDhub subscriptions are $25 for daily access or $50 for 30 days. The legacy land-record system remains available to existing users through December 31, 2026.

Use the Free Assessor Search First, Then Move to the Correct Office

Start with the official St. Tammany assessment search by owner, address or assessment number. Confirm the year, save the assessment number, check exemptions and open the GIS map when you need geographic context. Use the Sheriff only for tax-bill/payment questions and the Clerk when you need recorded ownership documents.

For August 2026, the most important action is timing: official public review begins August 17, Assessment Review requests are due August 31, and eligible Board of Review appeals are due September 14 at 4:30 p.m.
