Real Property Record Search
Another online tool is the Chatham County Tax Administration Record Search provided by USTaxData. Entering information into this site, such as a parcel owner’s name, results in account details for real property owners. Account details include the property owner(s) name, mailing address, the physical location of the property, administrative data such as parcel ID #s and tax district information, and valuation information such as market value, assessed value, and more. Some people refer to the search results page as a “property record card”.
