Search Pima County by parcel, address or name
The Pima County Assessor homepage provides direct basic and advanced property search. Records distinguish Full Cash Value, Limited Property Value, classification and other assessment fields used in Arizona’s tax system.
- Enter a parcel, address or owner name in the Assessor search.
- Open the parcel and verify the state code, legal description, values and classification.
- Use county map services for parcel location and nearby context.
- Use the Treasurer property inquiry for the bill, balance, lien and payment status.
- Use Recorder public-document services for deeds and recorded instruments.
What the public record can and cannot establish
Pima assessment records support parcel identification, ownership, classification, Full Cash Value, Limited Property Value and valuation-relief review. The office also values personal property accounts.
A parcel record is not a title opinion or survey. Ownership changes and map data can follow separate update schedules.
Use the correct office
| Task | Responsible office | Best next step |
|---|---|---|
| Parcel search, values, classification, address or relief | Pima County Assessor | Use basic or advanced property search. |
| Tax inquiry, payment, lien or redemption | Pima County Treasurer | Use official property inquiry and payment. |
| Deed and recorded instrument | Pima County Recorder | Search public documents. |
| Value or classification appeal | Assessor and statutory appeal route | Use the current notice and appeal instructions. |
Arizona values and Pima County classification
Pima County lists both Full Cash Value and Limited Property Value. Classification and assessment ratios matter, so a tax estimate based only on market value can be misleading.
The Assessor publishes valuation-relief programs and current changes affecting disabled veterans, seniors, disabled persons, widows and widowers. Current law and income limits must be checked for the target tax year.
Pima County valuation relief
The Valuation Relief Team handles disabled-veteran, disabled-person, senior-freeze, widow/widower and nonprofit programs. A 100% service-connected disabled-veteran exemption applies under current Arizona law subject to the county’s documented requirements.
- Mailing-address changes are submitted through the parcel detail or a notarized form.
- Personal-property accounts use separate values and identifiers.
- Tax liens and redemptions are Treasurer functions.
- Agricultural or special classification questions require Assessor review.
Pima County valuation review and appeals
Arizona appeal periods are tied to the notice of valuation and statutory calendar. File the correct petition by the notice deadline and state whether the dispute concerns Full Cash Value, classification or a factual error.
Keep evidence showing comparable sales, incorrect characteristics or classification facts. A complaint about the final tax amount alone does not establish an assessment error.
Property-tax bills and payments
Pima County taxes are commonly paid in two installments. The first is due October 1 and delinquent after November 1 at 5:00 PM; the second is due March 1 and delinquent after May 1 at 5:00 PM, subject to weekend and holiday rules.
The Treasurer charges stated convenience fees for online methods, including a small e-check fee. Review the amount shown by the official portal before submitting payment.
Deeds, ownership and recorded-document research
Use the Pima County Recorder public-document system for deeds and recorded instruments. An Assessor ownership field can lag after a recorded deed.
Common lookup problems
- A state code and a mailing address are not the same identifier.
- A notarized form may be required when the online address-change route cannot be used.
- Full Cash Value and Limited Property Value serve different purposes.
- A tax lien question belongs with the Treasurer.
- An exemption approved for one tax year may depend on changed law or income limits for the next year.
Buyer and homeowner checks
- Record the parcel/state code from the Assessor result.
- Compare Full Cash Value, Limited Property Value and classification.
- Check Treasurer tax and lien status.
- Review Recorder documents for legal ownership and encumbrances.
- Verify whether any relief program survives the ownership change.
County-specific bottom line
Pima County’s Assessor, Treasurer and Recorder each provide a different piece of the property record; combine them rather than relying on one screen.
